RELEASE "THE BANKER'S DAUGHTER" SOON The Life Photo Film Corporation has purchased from Mrs. Bronson Howard, wife of the late Bronson Howard, the exclusive motion picture rights for the entire world to his play "The Ranker's Daughter," written in L878. This play marked a long upward step in Bronson Howard's dramatic career, and has ever since been conceded to be the premier dramatic production by an American author, portraying American life. It was found necessary to outbid four of the largest motion picture producers in the country to obtain the rights to the play. The cast for "The Banker's Daughter" will be a superior one, picked from the cream of motion picture actors, and stars of the American stage. The production will be sold on state right basis and deliveries will be made on April 1. The play was first produced September 30, 1878, at the Union Square Theatre, and in the original cast, there was contained such names as Charles E. Thorne, J. B. Polk, Walter Ramsey and Sarah Jewett. It was produced in England under the name of "The Old Love for the New" and enjoyed the longest run of any American production ever produced there. STAGE IMPROMPTU ACT .

Miss Cooke had just stepped on a veranda of the hotel when Mr. Ricketts opened the window of his livingroom. The artistic situation prompt ed Ricketts to render the lines of Romeo.
