New Donors Help Push Film Daily Relief Fund Drive Ahead
(Continued from Page 1)

The half-way mark in the $10,000 drive has not been passed. Indications for the coming week are fairly bright, and it will take just a little more action to put the drive over the top.
Children JAungryl i
These are the exact words from a letter just received by the relief fund:
"... I'm trying hard to keep from asking for help, as I feel ashamed to do so, still I cannot let the children go hungry. I hope you will forgive me. God will bless you for what you have done for my children." This case has been before the committee on a previous occasion and is known to be deserving. A check for $50 was sent at once to the unfortunate family. Givers to the relief fund should be happy to know that they played a part in keeping these children from going hungry.
Actor's Wife Destitute!
Another case brought before the committee yesterday has to do with the wife of an actor who died suddenly last year. The woman is in her 50's and has been unable for some time to obtain work either in pictures or on the stage. Had absolutely no money and was three weeks behind in her rent. Living in a furnished room at $8 a week. Was given $75, cleaning up rent due and paying two weeks in advance, leaving her about $35 in cash to take care of other living expenses for the time being.
It is just such pitiful cases as these that come before the relief fund regularly and the fund must have money to take care of them. If either of the above cases were brought directly to your personal attention you probably would have dug down in your jeans and helped these needy persons, so why not dig down now and send something to the fund to be used in aiding cases of this kind all the year round!

Ruben & Finkelstein Buy Another Minneapolis House
Minneapolis— Charles Miles has sold the Miles to Ruben & Finkelstein, who already own the New Grand and the New Palace in Minneapolis, and the Princess and Majestic of St. Paul. It is said that the purchase price was $350,000. — Amusements, Dec. 22, 1914.
That was one of the news items in the original issue of Greater Amusements (than Amusements), and it started the first regional publication to its position of leadership in the regional held.
What a lot of water has run under the bridge since then.
The passing years have found Greater Amusements steadily serving the industry of which it is a part, championing all the fail practises and condemning the unfair. Not once during its 13 years of service has this publication been accused of nor done anything to impair its record of fairness, nor to reflect on its own self-respect.
This record will be climaxed by the Fifteenth Birthday and Holiday Number out Dec. 21, which affords the biggest dollar tor dollar "advertising buy ever offered to reach exhibitors of the Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Omaha, Des Moines and Sioux tails territories.
Copy will be given preference on space in the order of receipt! The largest circulation in its field of any trade paper.
