Description:
Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World, the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

''The combination of magnetic Mabel and the unusual story delighted our patrons. This kind of production distinctly shows how far the motion picture has advanced in the last few years. We cannot help commend the Goldwyn productions for their artistic standards and box office value." Goldwyn takes pleasure in telling this able Manager and the highly successful Mr. Shea of a Mabel Normand picture even bigger and finer than "Dodging A Million'*; more laughable, more human, more appealing and thrilling — one that will play to even bigger attendance at Shea's Hippodrome and thousands of other theatres.
