Cinematography.

 

 

  An important factor in connection with the conduct of a
Cinematograph Theatre is the booking of films. Those respon-
sible have to be alive to the needs of their Patrons and have to
keep in touch with all the markets from whence they are obtain-
able. Trade shows are held periodically, and the pictures shown
are carefully viewed. Keen competition for the first production
follows, and it will be interesting to our Patrons to know that of
the scores of pictures seen, only the best are shown immediately
upon release date at this Theatre.

   Our arrangements for the future have been made and an
agreement has been entered into whereby we have the option of
showing all pictures in which the following famous Actors and
Actresses will appear:- Else Ferguson, Dorothy Dalton, Ethel
Clayton, Marguerite Clarke, Enid Bennett, Marion Davies,
Catherine Calvert, Cillie Burke, Vernon Castle, Wallace Reid,
Charles Ray, W.S. Hart, Robert Warwick, Theo. Roberts, John
Barrymore and Houdini; also the exclusive rights to show comic
pictures presenting the popular Comedians:- Fatty Arbuckle,
Chester Conchin, Ben Turpin, Charles Lynn, Ford Stirling, etc.

  The Management have also secured the right to exhibit
pictures produced by the new British Producing Coy., which has
just established the largest studio in Britain, on such an elabor-
ate scale that they are said to outclass the gigantic studios
in California.

  This Company has entered into an arrangement with
Sir James Barrie and other famous authors to write scenarios for
several of their large production.

  Our Patrons can, therefore, for the future be assured of
seeing the finest pictures, acted by the world's leading Actors and
Actresses on the screen at this Theatre.
