June 19, 1915. N MOTION PICTURE NEWS S I V E — you will know why our advertisers get such unequalled results as shown below: because the reader is responsive — and only responsive to a service trade paper. BRYON CHANDLER, INC. Sole United States Representative of the Feaster Film Company, manufacturers of the "3-F" machine, absolutely eliminates rewinding 687 Boylston Street, Boston, Mass., May 19, 1915. "Motion Picture News," 220 West 42d Street, N. Y. Gentlemen : Last month when the time came that our Feaster Film Feed Machine was ready for the market, we took up the selection of a proper medium to reach the exhibitors throughout the country ; and after much deliberation, inserted our first advertising in "Motion Picture News." It is less than four weeks since our first advertisement appeared, and we have received upwards of a thousand inquiries requesting further information. In a single day we have had one or more inquiries from exhibitors and others, representing each and every State in the Union, showing conclusively the value of advertising and the wide spread circulation of a magazine of the calibre of the "Motion Picture News." It so often happens that the prospective customer is hidden away in some small town or city, that it would be a matter of physical impossibility to locate him and show to him the merits of the article which you have to offer. It is only through the medium of the well circulated, regularly published magazine that one is put in touch with the far away prospective customer, and it is a pleasure to me in endorsing advertising in general as one of the assets of modern business, to at the same time er"'o" =!-«' recommend the "Motion Picture News" as a splendid advertising medium. Very truly yours, BRYON CHANDLER, President. LIBERTY MOTION PICTURE CO.

Mgr., 220 West 42d Street, New York, N. Y. Dear Mr. Vandivert: In going over the returns from our advertising in several Trade Journals we find that eighty-five per cent, of actual results have been obtained from the "Motion Picture News."
