Address "What The Picture Did For Me," EXHIBITORS HERALD. 417 S. Dearb orn St., Chicago. DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS IN ROBIN HOOD. — Borrow all the money you can get hold of, then book this film. It's the sensation of the season. Gets the crowds. Brings them back the second time. Makes them talk. Gets you new faces you never knew were in town. Don't be afraid of this picture. I think it's the greatest of its kind on the market today. Paid the most money I ever paid for a picture. Advertised it the biggest and. Boys, I got a nice bank account left after the showing. Don't pass up this bet for any amount of rental asked. "Robin Hood" is good for any theatre for at least a week's run at advanced prices. Never had so many compliments on a production. Had patrons and a lot of them from surrounding towns. Some came as far as thirty-five miles and they went away feeling they had seen a rare treat. — H. E. SWAN, Empress theatre, Kearney, Neb.
