We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

ANNOUNCEMENTS— Continued ELAINE, by Montanye Perry, from the poem by Tennyson, which does the great poet no injustice, because it is charmingly told — in fact, this story is a prose poem. GETTING SISTER MARRIED, by E. M. Laroch. This is done in the form of a comedetta, and it will not only be useful in driving away the blues, but for amateur theatricals. IN THE HOT LANDS, by Marie Coolidge Rask, an exciting story of ranch life in Texas. ACROSS THE MEXICAN BORDER, by Aurelius Heltberg, which tells of life and love in Mexico. TONY THE GREASER, by L. Case Russell, a tale from San Antonio, full of local color and action. TALE OF TWO CITIES, by Montanve Perry, after the story of Dickens. This story includes the tnree parts complete, and it is done in this popular writer's best style. THOMAS ABECKET, by Luliette Bryant, a story from history, and well told. DIPLOMACY, by Luke Sharp, which is one of the funniest stories ever told by this "funny" writer. THE SCHOOLMA'AM OF COYOTTE COUNTY, by Kenneth S. Clarke, which is another humorous story by an equally famous writer. A PLEASANT AFTERNOON, by Lizzie Pinson, which is as instructive as it is entertaining. These stories have already been written from photoplay scenarios, and all will be profusely illustrated with beautiful half-tone engravings. Besides these, we have received many other subjects which have not yet been reduced to story form; and still many others have been promised, some of which will appear in the May number before they are seen in the Picture Houses. The May number will also contain a poem written expressly for this magazine by the celebrated American poet WILL CARLETON, entitled "The Two Lessons" (At the Moving Picture Hall), with portrait of the author. Also, the usual features, including our Gallery of Leading Picture Players, Musings of the Photoplay Philosopher, poems, editorials, &c. Readers desiring to get the May number are advised to order early. We were compelled to return unfilled many orders for the February number which we received from news companies and others. The safest way to make sure of getting this splendid number is to send in your subscription at once, enclosing check, stamps or money order for $1.50 to THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE, 26 COURT STREET, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK CITY
