Whatanationdoeswithitsspare timeisa mighty good test of the heart of that nation. And the verdict of America’s whole heart and mind on Paramount-Arteraft leaves no shadow of doubt as to what sort of screen entertainment America prefers. After seven years of gathering way, Paramount-Arteraft has mobilized all the great geniuses of production; dramatists, directors, artists, technicians; and is equip- ped with facilities of the utmost magni- tude to capture from the realm of soaring imagination photoplays that make you laugh —and cry —and think! As in the past the proof is written large in increased showings at more theatres, more frequent attendance by more people, and the making of that better theatre in every community the magnet that draws the people as surely as the moon draws the tides. This poster in the lobby will identify for you the better theatres joining in this national drive for better motion pictures.
