The public is becoming more discrim- inating about the pictures they go to see. They are no longer satisfied to just go to the movies. They wish to pick their shows and are willing to go * a considerable distance in order to see the show they like. Tastes vary— some like the drama—some the mixed program, and some the comedies, and these tastes govern the selection of the show. This diserimination creates a de- mand for information about the photo- plays and the offerings at the various show houses. The Bee is furnishing its readers this information complete on Sundays and during the week. Look these pages over—read the advertisements and you are sure to find the entertainment you are look- ing for today or in the future. The Photoplay industry is develop- ing rapidly. Greater things are com- ing than have yet been seen, and, this development will all be recorded in The Omaha Bee Photoplay Dept. City,fMo., and Mr. J. J. Klein of Dal- las, Tex.
