Do you remember the "talking movies,"
where tho company "spoke" the pictures
every night? Sort of back talk.
People have asked "What effect do the
movies have upon the churches?" Of
course, this applies to States allowing
Sunday performances. We cannot an
swer for tliem. but do know that many
religions and sects are renting the motion-picture
theatre for a place of wor
ship on Sunday. Societies, speakers and
others realizing the power of attraction
the movie theatre lias, are also holding
meetings in them, gaining an audience
that no doubt expects to sec some film
production in addition to hearing a lec
ture. The Spruce la used as a place of wor
ship on Sunday. So Is the Locust. The
woods are said to be God's temple.
Some- managers open the doors and
windows others buy perfume.

go to a distant part of the city from
where they lived in order to see and not
be seen at the movies. There are many
today who have never seen a moving
picture show, and yet pass them daily.
We are still patiently waiting for our
all-night movie on Market street.
The new electrical ticket-selling device
at the Imperial greatly aids in permitting
handling a crowd rapidly.
The recently installed organ at tho
Leader Is capable of furnishing many ef
fects aside from the usual organ music,
which enables the player to aid the at
mosphere of the pictures.
A new magazine devoted to tho Inter
ests of Faramount exhibitors is now In
preparation by Mr. Morgan, of tho local
office.
Messrs. Green and Altman. of the Sus
quehanna, also control several other
theatres.
It has been suggested that the synco
pation of ragtime Is an attempt to imi
tate the cut-back in the motion picture,

V. Beethoven, who Is said to have ex
isted some years before the moving pic
tures. The Liberty, Fail-mount and Orpheum
are all under the direction of "Buck"
Taylor, although each house has its own
manager.
The first viewing of tho "Red Circle,"
the new Fathe serial, looks like It will
be an exceptionally good drawing attrac
tion, due to Its action and power to keep
up a continuous Interest.
Correction of an error In last week's
notes. In which Mr. Flinn, of tho World,
was called the booker. This honor be
longs to Mr. Haney, and the title of as
sistant manager goes to Mr. Flinn.
THE STAR ABDICATES
The play, not the actor. Is the thinir.
From tho dars of Garrick down the
Kreatmt acton hare failed In poor plnja,
or at best have merely dragged alonir.
Not one fluccesflful actor on our itajce.
though he may claim all the credit for
hlnuelf. la Ignorant of the fact that the
true honor belongs to the dramatist.
