In a control for an auditorium the device is a small thermostat, which actuates a valve on an air-line, which in turn operates the shutters in the air ducts. In the average size theatre several of these will be located at various places and each will operate independently of the other, thus relieving hot or cold spots in any one section. Controls for organ chambers turn on or off electric heaters and also work on the thermostatic principle.

Theatre Curtain Advertising
THEATRE curtain advertising in many places has been the means of bringing together the exhibitor and the local merchant on more friendly terms, besides being a source of revenue for the exhibitor. It also has stimulated community interest among the patrons in trading at their neighborhood stores.

Theatre Promotion
TWO PRIMARY factors in promotional work of a theatre, as far as paper is concerned, are quality production and speed of service. Just as those two elements figure in the contact between theatre owner and patron, so too they loom in the relations between the exhibitor and the company that serves him with his promotional material.
