We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE
The only way to make sure of getting The Motion Picture Story Magazine is to subscribe for it. Our readers are beginning to realize this, and we are receiving many subscriptions from persons who state that they are greeted with the words "soM out" when they ask for it at the newsstands a few days after the date of issue. We are doing our best to overcome this difficulty, but we urge our readers to subscribe for the magazine, and make sure of getting it on time.
We will send the magazine for four months for fifty cents, and allow the subscriber to cast one hundred and fifty votes ; for one dollar we will give an eight months' subscription, and allow three hundred votes. For $1.50 we will give one year's subscription, and allow 500 votes. Any person who secures three subscriptions may cast two thousand votes by sending us only $3.50; the extra dollar the sender may keep. Any person sending us five subscriptions will be entitled to cast 5,000 votes, provided $5.00 accompanies the order. For ten subscriptions, accompanied by $10.00, 15,000 votes may be cast ; for twenty subscriptions and $20.00, 35,000 votes ; twenty-five subscriptions and $25.00, 40,000 votes.
Persons not desiring to subscribe may cast a vote by writing name and address on a slip of paper, or postal card, and the name of the player to be voted for. Can you find the hidden coupon in this issue?
