O c t o lu I 9 2 '< 1255 i_ Is this burglar spending your money? He has made another successful raid upon a moving picture theatre. The money he is spending upon Wine, Women and Automobiles belongs to the owner of a theatre in a town a hundred miles away. Will he be spending your money next week? Not if you install a York Burglary Chest. York Safe and Lock Company York, Pa. A NECESSITY FOR BETTER SOUND PICTURES You are assured of better sound pictures when you use the improved Gold-E framing light shield with the new waffle type cooling plate that dissipates heat and prevents film buckling and tension gate warping. It saves the projectionist's eyes, provides a perfect light source for framing so necessary in the proper positioning of film for perfect Sound Projection, and now incorporates a new bottom plate that prevents the escape of light that otherwise is spilled downward.

Yet a ma' jority of the switchboard jobs for theatres, schools and auditoriums we bid on are awarded to us— not because of price, obviously, but on account of the well-earned reputation for quality, stamina, generous capacity, scientific design, convenient arrangement and rugged construction of the Wurdack Stage switchboard. Qlf price alone was the consideration in buying an automobile there would be but one make of car on the streets — the cheapest. Except in rare instances, due to peculiar circumstances, a thousand dollar automobile cannot be bought for $500. You always get what you pay for — no more. QThe same thing is true in stage switchboards. We strive to make the Wurdack Stage Switchboard the best one built. Naturally we cannot price it as low as a cheaper one. Nor do we have to compete with "price" equipment. We sell our switchboards on their merit and quality, and if this is what you are seeking, together with long, satisfactory service, specify just one make, the Wurdack Stage Switchboard.
