Some Truths Peculiar to the MOTIOGRAPH What name comes instinctively to you when the best projection machines are under discussion ? MOTIOGRAPH — You may know and admire others, but the MOTIOGRAPH invariably comes first to your mind, and not alone to yours but to thousands, to men in every part of the world. This is a thing peculiarly true of the MOTIOGRAPH. Another thing which should have equal weight with every prospective purchaser of a projection machine is the steady advance in popular favor of the MOTIOGRAPH. For nearly four years now, or ever since the MOTIOGRAPH was first offered, the demand has not lapsed for a single day. It has never been necessary to check or curtail any output planned by the MOTIOGRAPH makers, a circumstance unprecedented. IN SUBSTANTIATION OF THIS STATEMENT IT IS MERELY NECESSARY TO POINT OUT THAT DURING THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE YEAR 1911, NOTWITHSTANDING THE CRY OF POOR BUSINESS IN GENERAL, THE VOLUME OF SALES EXCEEDED BY TWO AND ONEHALF TIMES THE SALES IN ANY PREVIOUS PERIOD IN THE HISTORY OF THE MOTIOGRAPH. There must be a reason for this steady increase and the answer is no doubt as ready to the tip of your tongue as to ours. MOTIOGRAPH pre-eminence is not attributed to any single, or to even several, special features. That pre-eminence is due to the "goodness" of the MOTIOGRAPH as a whole, from its perfect picture down to the smallest screw incorporated in its make-up. Because THE MOTIOGRAPH is a good machine through and through. Manufactured and Jobbed by THE ENTERPRISE OPTICAL MANUFACTURING COMPANY W. Randolph Street, Chicago, 111. AGENTS— J. H.
