Desmond, in “Lieutenant Denny, U.S. A.” Pathe Weekly CONPETITION KEEN IN NOVIE INDUSTRY Managers Fail to Use Proper Methods. |NO ROSE PATH TO FORTUNE ;, Paste Pot and >nears has the fol- lowing to say regarding the reasons why many theaters fail when they could as well succeed: “Because a motion picture show is associated with gilded fronts, flaring lithographs and piano music, it does not necessarily afford an easy and interesting pathway to fortune. Everywhere there is a desire to get into the business; a desire for infor- mation about the cost of operation, locations and methods, True, for- tunes have been made in the motion picture theater exhibiting business, but these fortunes have not been made because the business is “easy.” Nor have any of these theaters oper- ated themselves. “There seems to be an impression that a motion picture theater will operate itself, once a location has been decided upon and a man placed in charge of a machine. These theaters will close their doors. The motion picture business is not all rose-hued. Competition has become keen. Going about it to make such a_business profitable is as prosaic as though you were dealing in gro- ceries or dry goods. It is not sim- ply a matter of buying out a place and then watching the dimes roll in, To succeed, a motion picture theater has to have capable, alert manage- ment. “One manager may win where an- other has failed, because he takes the trouble to learn what films please his patrons and because he gives these patrons ° personal attention. One manager may lose out because he has a sober, unattractive front, while the manager who succeeds him may furnish just the glitter to ap- peal to the pleasure seeker. “The motion picture exhibitor 2861 Leaven- ROHLFF "' Today at 2, 3:30, 5, 6:30, 8, 9:30 MAE MARSH & ROBERT HARRON in “The Wild Girl of the Slerras” i H ' Tuesday & Wednesday—Wm.
