GENERAL ELECTRIC UTILITIES CO. 145 West 45th St., N. Y. EVANS BOOKS BIG FEATURES With the view of negotiating for the Exclusive Supply Corporation's program, Nelson F. Evans, general manager of the American Feature ♦Film Company, of Toledo and Cincinnati, Ohio, has just returned home after a two weeks' stay in New York. Interested in exclusive rights in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, he surveyed the feature market exhaustively. Among the feature purchases consummated were those of "Demonyte" and "The Secret of Adrianople," of the Film Releases of America brand, also the Itala "Victory or Death." A hint dropped by Mr. Evans suggests the probability that within a short time he will establish offices in Cleveland and Indianapolis. Herbert Lubin, representing the International Feature Film Corporation, Ltd., of Montreal, Canada, has concluded arrangements with the Film Releases of America to handle their output in Canada, beginning with the three-reel subject, "Outlawed." EXCLUSIVE CHANGES ITS QUARTERS Inadequate quarters to handle their increased business has necessitated the removal of the Exclusive Features, Inc., to larger offices in the Masonic Building, Sixth Avenue and Twenty-third Street, New York City. The present offices of the Features are at 24 East Twenty-first street. Since their policy to release three features weekly became active the increased business has proved too large to be handled under the old conditions. Harry A. Samwick, general manager, lias purchased New York City and State and northern New Jersey rights on "The Ghost Club" and "Victory or Death." He states that the Exclusive Features will continue to control the local rights of Lewis Pennant and Union Features. GLORIA AMERICAN STATE RIGHT BUYERS The Gloria American Company, of 110 West Fortieth Street. New York City, has sold the following territory of "The Ghost Club," a six-reel production featuring Mario Bonnard : Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Oklahoma are now controlled by the Kansas City Feature Film Exchange, of Kansas City, Mo. New York City, New York State and northern Jersey are controlled by the Exclusive Features, New York City. California, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico. Idaho and Montana are controlled by the Golgate Feature Service, of San Francisco, Cal. Eastern Pennsylvania. Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, and southern Jersey are controlled by the Mann Lewis Company, Philadelphia, Pa. A Chain of Theatres is the ambition of practically every new exhibitor. Many exhibitors, who opened their first theatre several years ago, have achieved that ambition. But they started right. They first studied every detail, big and little, of theatre management. We have remaining less than a hundred copies of "Picture Theatre Facts," an excellent book for new exhibitors. It is crowded with important information about every department of theatre operation. We will be glad to present copies of this valuable work to exhibitors who wish to become yearly subscribers to The Motion Picture News.
