'T'he lightning thrills of “The Girl and the Game” are giant hammer strokes of suc¬ cess for exhibitors. Theatres which have been featuring special attractions for years announce “The Girl and the Game” has outstripped all previous attendance records ! Chapter Seven is now appearing— and with over half the production shown, exhibitors realize that the power of this railroad film sensation is sus¬ tained to the limit in every chapter. The daring exploits of Helen Holmes leave audi¬ ences breathless, shouting, wildly applauding! In Chapter Seven Helen is shot from a fast train — on a rope — to a speeding automobile— a thrill that creates a pandemonium of enthusiasm! Every Chapter Guaranteed to Show Definite Thrills! The thrills in each chapter are guaranteed to exhibitors by President Hutchinson. Every chapter has distinct exploits of Helen Holmes which strike the high mark for smashing climaxes. Every chapter is a tremen¬ dous production costing over $33,000. Over half a million dollars have been spent on the fifteen chapters! “The Girl and the Game” is the greatest serial suc¬ cess of^all film exper¬ ience! REEL LIFE — Page Twenty-five
