Show World (April 1909)

30 THE SHOW WORLD April 24, 1909, Try Our New Independent Films Our New Independent Film Service makes exhibitors heave a sigh of relief. You not only get better films, but you get subjects, which no other exhibitor in your locality shows. It’s an exclusive service, and can be had only through us. No matter what may be said, subjects that appeal more to your patrons, or as large a variety to select from, cannot be found elsewhere. Just remember that we were Independent from the very start, have always been Independent, and are the only exchange importing its own goods. This accounts for our being able to furnish you films that can’t be obtained elsewhere — the choicest of foreign-made films, besides the pick selections of the International Projecting and Produc¬ ing Company’s output, which we were shrewd enough to secure. We can handle several more high grade first, second and third run customers right now. Send for more information about this, also our films.

Utah, April 20. It has just been announced that after June 1 the Grand opera house of Ogden will be turned over to the Orpheum Amusement company, and will be ready for opening of the sea¬ son Aueust 1. During the two months intervening about $25,000 will be expended in thoroughly overhaul¬ ing the house and installing a number of improvements. The seating capa¬ city of the Grand is 1,500, and the fact that it is centrally located will John Cort is the present lessee, but owing to the fact that he did not make certain improvements specified in the contract, his application for another five years lease was denied, make its success assured. Another Indian Act. Lasca, a new Indian act, written by Theo. Patterson, of Salt Lake, has been accepted for the Orpheum cir¬ cuit, and bookings will shortly be made. The act has been very fav¬ orably received by local critics, and it is very probable that it will be successful on the road. It includes a number of Indians, and several rattle snakes, one of them measuring seven feet in length. These are used for the Moki snake dance, the rendition of which is technically accurate. Mr. Patterson was formerly interpreter for the United States government, 1 and has spent much time among the Indians of Arizona and New Mexico. Cleveland’s Niece An Actress. The Willard Mack stock company, were transferred from the Bungalow to the Colonial last week, where they produced The Liars. At the Bunga¬ low, the Lewis and Lake company presented The Telephone Girl, a musical comedy. The Mack company appeared the previous week in La Tosca, Miss Mary Hall playing the title roll in a very acceptable manner. T. W. Heffron, a new member of the company, had a try out at the Or¬ pheum this week in a playlet which includes Anna Cleveland, niece of Grover Cleveland, in the cast. The Arlington Players continue to draw good houses at the Grand with good old fashioned melodrama." This week, The Orphan’s Prayer.—JOHN- Kalich, A Shubert Star. New York, April 19.
