NEW QUARTERS OF CLEVELAND LOCAL NO. i. On Wednesday, December 20 the Cleveland Local of The Moving Picture Exhibitors' League of America held their first meeting in their beautiful new quarters, located at 1459 West Sixth Street. Great surprise was expressed by the members when they came to the meeting and viewed for the first time new and elegantly furnished quarters, which they could really call their own. The committee in charge of securing and furnishing quarters consisted of Mr. S. Lustig, C. M. Christenson. and S, Bullock, They were given full power to act, and it is needless to say that they made the most of their duties. The meeting room was artistically decorated with Christmas greens, heavy green streamers hung across the large room from the corners of the ceiling, encircling an immense welcome sign, which hung directly above the president's chair, which was a large upholstered leather armchair, in front of which was a quartered oakstand and gavel. President S. E. Morris accepted his chair with much satisfaction. A large roll top desk of the latest design awaited L. H. Wilk, secretary, and a desk of the flat variety for F. M, Kenney, the able financial secretary. An enormous rug covered the center of a parquet floor, and six large brass cuspidors stood ready to receive the ash from the Havana Perfectos which the committee had on hand for the members. Thirty-six oak chairs were provided, with plenty of room for more, as the occasion demands. It is the intention of the organization to install a supply department, in the near future, and carry a full line of machine parts, carbons, tickets, etc. and furnish same to the members at actual cost. Cleveland Local No, i was the first organization of motion picture exhibitors in the country, and called the first national convention, which was held in Cleveland, Ohio, .August l-,^. igii. L. H. Wilk, Secretary. THE SCAPEGOAT. "You say the boy's maternal .grandfather was a highwayman?" "Yes." "And his paternal grandfather was charged with arson?" "Yes," "And his aunt is a shoplifter and his uncle a counterfeiter?" "Yes." "Then to what do you ascribe his waywardness?" "Why, to moving pictures, of course." — From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. JACK HOPKINS. Jack Hopkins has been a Lubin player, but he has left the Philadelphia company to come to New York to obtain a position in the only real town. In Lubinville he was for the greater part of the time the juvenile lead in the comedy company under Arthur Hotaling, but he has also played under Barry O'Neil, one of the dramatic directors, and the other branches of the Lubin staff. Light comedy and romantic roles are his forte and he has played the lead in "A Mr. Jack Hopkins. Near-Sighted Chaperon," the tall miner in "A Human Torpedo," the count in the new version of "A Hot Time in Atlantic City," the father in "Willie's Conscience," Jack in "Jack's Umbrella," the young lover in "Object Matrimony," and one of the two vacationers in "A Gay Time in New York," Mr, Hopkins has had both stage and literary experience and can write as well as play in photoplays. He is a comparative newcomer in the motion picture field, but his work has been clean-cut and effective, and in spite of his cornparatively short stay he has already become a Lubin favorite. POWERS SPRINGS INNOVATION. The latest novelty, a real novelty in moving picture, cornes now from the Powers Picture Company. It is a moving picture, full of stirring incidents, that does not throw its story too directly at the spectator. It leaves something to the imagination, and when the picture is finished the spectator is left thinking hard. There will no doubt be conflicting opinions as to just how the picture should finish, and the Powers Company is going to give the picture patrons a chance to voice their ideas. Each theater will announce a prize of five hundred dollars for the best letter, the replies to be addressed direct to the Powers Company. The picture will be released in January, and there will be a fine array of special literature to helf) the exhibitor boost. IT'S "MARGARITA" FISCHER. The first information issued by the Imp Company regarding the name of its new leading lady was to the effect that her name was "Margaret Fisher." It seemed scarcely possible. An actress named just plain "Margaret"? Not so, for close upon the heels of the first publication came the correction and we now advise our readers that her name is properly spelled "Margarita Fischer."
