Jest a Few Suggestions
A Famous Star in a Famous Story
When the Mary Roberts Rinehart series of “Sub-Deb” stories first appeared in the Saturday Evening Post, they made a hit, and before the second story had appeared the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation were negotiating for the purchase of the rights to this story. The fact that they were finally successful will be demonstrated when
Miss Clark appears in the story entitled “Bab's Burglar,” to be shown at the
Theatre next week.

School-girl Spends Year’s Allowance in Two Weeks
One could hardly imagine that a school-girl, or anybody else, would have so little idea of money as to spend her entire allowance in so short a time, but, when used to the luxuries of life and having every wish gratified, it is rather hard to be told that you have just so much money to spend in the next fifty-two weeks.
Miss Clark, in the title role of “Bab’s Burglar” (as Bab, not the Burglar), finds it very hard to make ends meet on a paltry one thousand dollars a year. The screen version
of Mary Roberts Rinehart’s famous Sub-Deb stories is to be shown at the
Theatre, commencing next week — the well-known Sub-Deb stories now
in film.
SUGGESTION FOR LOBBY DISPLAY
Have your local card-writer or sign-maker get up a number of cardboard signs of approximately full-card or one-sheet size, and have these lettered to represent the Saturday Evening Post cover. Have a picture of Miss Clark placed in the center of at least one of these, and below, the Diary of the Sub-Deb, starring Marguerite Clark in the production, “Bab’s Burglar.”
You can have a number of these around your lobby in such a way as to represent either a gigantic pile of magazines or to look like a number of single magazines of huge size. The entire lobby can be dressed with these if you wish.
SUGGESTION FOR WINDOW DISPLAY
Get in touch with your local bookseller and tell him you are going to play Marguerite Clark in a play based on the famous “Sub-Deb” stories. Ask him to get a stock on hand of these stories and display them prominently in one window display. You can obtain for him two or three large and small pictures of Miss Clark and then have a sign in the window, “ 'Bab’s Burglar,’ adapted from the diary of the Sub-Deb star, Marguerite Clark, to be shown at the Theatre, commencing ”
This will help him to sell the copies of the book and, if you wish, you can further enhance the adertising value of your showing by having a series of prizes for the best essay written on the book and play combined. The prizes, of course, to be copies of the book. This will stimulate an interest and it will also prepare your patrons for other “Sub-Deb” stories which will be filmed with Miss Clark as the star.
