The first big rock it strikes usually retards the for- mer and greatly reduces the latter. The Sales Company, rolling steadily up-hill, has acquired an impetus, and imparted to all branches of the indus- try, not dominated by the Trust, this able to retard its same impetus to progress. There is that indescribable something which dominates every member and every factor of the Independent fraternity in the Moving Picture business, which enables them to ride over what in other lines might seem insurmount- Our attention was called last week to the case of an exhibitor owning six houses who desired to take Independent service in five of them. He was in- formed that if he did so he would be unable ever after to secure other service. This is pure bluff and buncombe, and any exhibitor who has not enough of the "indescribable something" to use what service he pleases, deserves to be crushed and his business taken from him in the way that monopoly originally planned to do. Buck up, tell these people where they get off, and you will soon have them eating out of your hand. ' They want that one house as badly as we want the five, and if they could not get the six they would take the one. Select your service from the following program and save $104 in royal- ties next year. If you have experienced any difficulty in the past in securing a satisfactory Independent service, write us and tell us about it. All i is treated as strictly confidential. OUR PROGRAM. EVERY MONDAY.
