EXHIBITORS HERALD
March 11, 1922
some of these exhibitors rave about Realart. I have run a lot of them and the best I can say is fair. The stars are pretty and wear fine clothes, but I think it takes more than that to make a good picture. So do my patrons. — L. H. Gerrard, Gem theatre, Spur, Tex. — General patronage.
The Love Charm, with Wanda Hawley. — A mighty poor offering. Does not get by with patrons these days when they expect to get their money's worth. Wanda Hawley is a clever little star and can take care of herself at all times and make a creditable showing. The rest of cast for the most part does well. Business about present average, which it goes without saying is very poor. — W. H. Brenner, Cozy theatre, Winchester, Ind. — General patronage.
All Souls' Eve, with Mary Miles Matter.— Fair. Only pleased about 50 per cent. Think it is the poorest Minter I have ever used. Lay off of it if possible.— F. L. Clark, Cozy theatre, Hazen, Ark. — Neighborhood patronage.
Her Beloved Villain, with Wanda Hawley. — This bill is sure to please any audience, boost it. — J. F. Rees, Regal theatre, Wellsville, Mo. — Neighborhood patronage.
Little Italy, with Alice Brady.— One of Miss Brady's best. Pleased a fairsized audience. — G. D. Worden, Gem theatre, Delcvan, N. Y. — Small town patronage.
Ducks and Drakes, with Bebe Daniels. — Patrons enjoyed this very much. Beautiful picture. Story of a beauty who would flirt and was not afraid to try anything once. Stdry leaves her wondering if all men are as wonderful as her husband. — S. V. Wallace, Idle Honr theatre, Cambridge Springs, Pa. — Neighborhood patronage.
A Kiss in Time, with Wanda Hawley. — Had more real favorable comments on this than anv of her pictures I have run. Old Fatty (Walter Hiers) is good, too. I always play him up strong. He is truly a Georgia peach. — Mack Jackson, Strand theatre, Alexander City, Ala. — Small town patronage.
The Little Clown, with Mary Miles
Minter. — Good picture. Everybody will like it, and we are sure that you will do a good business on it, too. — William G. Atkinson, Star theatre, Rockingham, N.
C. — General patronage.
Her Sturdy Oak, with Wanda Hawley. — A fairly good program offering. Will please those seeking comedy dramas. — R. C. Metzger, Cozy theatre, Tyndall, S.
D. — Neighborhood patronage.
Her Eturdy Oak, with Wanda Hawley, — I picked this from what an exhibitor in this column, who said it was good, wrote. I guess he was talking with a film salesman while it was being shown. Worst Hawley yet. Would not make a good single reeler. — G. W. Yeaton, Ioka theatre, Exeter, N. H.— Neighborhood patronage.
The Magic Cup, with Constance Binney.— Play this if you want to please them all. — J. F. Rees, Regal theatre, Wellsville, Mo. — Small town patronage.
Eyes of the Heart, with Mary Miles Minter. — Nothing extra. Drew well and many came just to see Mary. Story of underworld and out on top on a Western ranch that seemed to please. — S. V. Wallace, Idle Hour theatre, Cambridge Springs, Pa. — Neighborhood patronage.
A Kiss in Time, with Wanda Hawley. — A very good comedy-drama. Most of Realart's are light comedies, but will please the average audience. — G. D. Worden, Gem theatre, Delcvan, N. Y. — Small town patronage.
Such a Little Queen, with Constance Binney. — Poor. Another good star being spoiled by poor pictures. — G. W. Yeaton, Ioka theatre, Exeter, N. H. — Neighborhood patronage.
The March Hare, with Hebe Daniels. — Ran this with Harold Lloyd in "I Do.," and it gave about the best satisfaction to my patrons. They were all pleased. Drew fair. — Chas. Frunhoff. Prospect theatre, Kansas City, Mo. — Neighborhood patronage.
Moonlight and Honeysuckle, with
Mary Miles Minter. — Excellent comedy.
Shows the girls a new way to select their future husbands. — G. D. Worden, Gem theatre, Delevan, N. Y. — Small town patronage.
A Heart to Let, with Justine Johnstone. — Not much. — G. W. Yeaton, Ioka theatre, Exeter, N. H. — Neighborhood patronage.

The Way of a Maid, with Elaine Hammerstein. — A good program picture. — E. J. Degenhardt, Princess theatre, Mendota. 111. — Neighborhood patronage.
Miracles of Manhattan, with Elaine Hammerstein. — Poor title for a very good picture. Cast and settings like a big time production, and story stands up. Gave general satisfaction and drew business against stiff opposition. — Ben L. Morris. Olympic theatre, Bellaire, O — ( leneral patronage.
THE WAY OF A MAID, with Elaine Hammerstein. — "The actress without a failure?" Right. My audience joins me in saying "Amen." — E. Saunders, Saunders theatre, Harvard, 111.

A Man's Home, with a special cast. — With a hand-picked cast, Ralph Ince has turned out a good, well-balanced picture that will please the masses who attend "the movies." Six good people, namely.

Panthea, with Norma Talmadge. — Areissued Russian nightmare. Work of Norma very good.

Rathbone, Gem theatre, Randolph, N. Y.— Neighborhood patronage.
