Davis’ that will fill your 44 THE SILENT CALL” theatre. See page 8. An Extraordinary Picture $10 REWARD FOR ANY LIE OR MISSTATEMENT FOUND IN FRANCHISE Franchise Has a Guaranteed Circulation in Excess of 10,000 Theatres This Sounds Like a Fairy Tale But It’s The Gospel Truth! A certain amateur film enthusiast, who as yet prefers to remain unknown, decided to take a flier in the picture bus- iness on his own account. He is an ardent movie fan, he thought he knew how pictures should be made and was willing to back his judgment at no matter what cost. By an arrangement with us he engaged Marshall Neilan to direct the picture between his regular First National releases. As money didn't matter, he engaged John Barrymore to play the leading role. Neilan had a free hand on the pro- duction. He assembled a fine cast, including Wesley Barry, Anna Q. Nilsson, Coleen Moore, J. Barney Sherry and other well known film players. The vehicle selected was Albert Payson Terhune's story, "THE LOTUS EATER," the tale of a young man of twenty-five who saw a woman for the first time when he stepped off the palatial yacht upon which his millionaire father's will had held him prisoner. In our opinion the picture is one of the most dramatic, most beautiful, and altogether most perfect productions yet made. Associated First National Pictures, Inc. (Signed by) J. D. WILLIAMS, Manager : . November 15, 1921 First National Franchise 3 M. F. Baker tells how to reduce prices on First National Pictures His plan is practical and will bring definite results November 1, 1921 Associated First National Pictures, 6 West 48th Street, New York City. Gentlemen The writer has returned from the Chicago Convention more thoroughly certain than ever, if possible, that the basic principles of the First National idea are good and will endure. Two unfavorable situations were mentioned there that I believe can be remedied. I refer to the claims that about 35$ of the franchises over the entire country remain unsold and that in many small towns the exhibitors, whether franchise holders or not, are passing up First National for the lower- priced pictures. The two points are related in the effect that they are causing our revenue to be a great deal less than it should be and that if we could secure this new business it could be handled with probably only a small increase in our overhead. Naturally, the result of more business would be lower exhibition values, which seems to be the uppermost thought in the minds of exhibitors. As a possibility of getting some of the business above referred to I would suggest that the New York Office call on the loyal franchise exhibitors over the entire country to go after these small town exhibitors. Let us be informed of the ones in our territory who are not franchise holders and we will try and get them in. Our faith in the project should be a help to influence the doubtful ones. Perhaps a few personal letters from us would help, or, if our standing in our community as successful exhibitors amounts to anything, let us take a few days occasionally to call on the small towns around us to help influence them, making the trip alone or with the company salesman. Many of us have cars, so that this could be easily done. If thi idea impress es you as practicable I am glad to volunteer now to work on it in this neighborhood Judging the enthus iasm shown at Chicago the other exhibitors would do the same Very truly yours, Baker-Dodge Theatres, Inc.

  • Solomon's Wisdom Is Not Philosophy; Rather, It Is an Ability to Perceive and to Describe the Simple, Godly Life That Leads to Happiness
    PROVERBS A Description of The Secret Pathway to Happiness John David Clark, Sr. This book is dedicated to the young, who are precious in the sight of God and in the eyes of those who are like Him. It is not written as a substitute for the wonderful books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, but only to acquaint the young reader with some of their beauty and wisdom. Solomon’s Wisdom: The Secret Pathway to Happiness ISBN- - Second edition, 2010 copyright 1999, John Clark, Sr. SOLOMON’S WISDOM P. O. Box 99 Burlington, NC 27216-0099 visit these web sites: www.GoingtoJesus.com www.Isaiah58.com and for good music all day long, go to: www.SongsofRest.com INTRODUCTION You want to be happy; everybody does. When you as a newborn cried in your mother's arms, you cried because you wanted to be happy. And that same yearning for happiness drives you now to do whatever you do and whatever you say. We are all desperate travelers in this confusing and tormented world. Old and young, rich and poor, wise and foolish, we are all striving and yearning together from the moment of birth for happiness. That longing for happiness drives all people at all times to do whatever they do; it drives the treasure hunter as well as the thief, to risk his life for gold; it inspires the astronaut to circle the earth, and it motivates the lazy bum to beg for a piece of bread. The irrepressible human longing for happiness motivates men to go fishing, to sleep late, to study microbes, to play games or to do work, to invent new materials or to vandalize masterpieces, to love and to cherish or to hate and kill, to write books or to read them, to become martyrs or to conquer empires, to believe in God or to deny that He exists.

  • ASC Founders
    The 15 Founders of the American Society of Cinematographers Biographies By Robert S. Birchard The American Society of Cinematographers succeeded two earlier organizations — the Cinema Camera Club, started by Edison camerapersons Philip E. Rosen, Frank Kugler and Lewis W. Physioc in New York in 1913; and the Static Club of America, a Los Angeles–based society first headed by Universal cameraperson Harry H. Harris. From the beginning, the two clubs had a loose affiliation, and eventually the West Coast organization changed its name to the Cinema Camera Club of California. But, even as the center of film production shifted from New York to Los Angeles — the western cinematographers’ organization was struggling to stay afloat. Rosen came to Los Angeles in 1918. When he sought affiliation with the Cinema Camera Club of California, president Charles Rosher asked if he would help reorganize the faltering association. Rosen sought to create a national organization, with membership by invitation and with a strong educational component. The reorganization committee met in the home of William C. Foster on Saturday, December 21, 1918 and drew up a new set of bylaws. The 10-member committee and five invited Cinema Camera Club member visitors were designated as the board of governors for the new organization. The next evening, in the home of Fred LeRoy Granville, officers for the American Society of Cinematographers were elected — Philip E. Rosen, president; Charles Rosher, vice president; Homer A. Scott, second vice president; William C. Foster, treasurer; and Victor Milner, secretary. The Society was chartered by the State of California on January 8, 1919.

Tälle maailmansodan jälkeiselle, 1920-luvun modernisaatiolle tyypillistä olivat kaupungistuminen, modernin kaupunkikulttuurin synty, tieteen ja teknologian nopea kehittyminen ja yhä nopeampi tiedonvälitys. Euroopassa ja Yhdysvalloissa todistettiin naisten yhteiskunnallista vapautumista ja sukupuolten tasa-arvoistumista. Euroopan kulttuurisessa ja talouden modernisoitumisessa Yhdysvalloilla oli huomattava rooli ja esimerkiksi amerikkalaisessa kaupunkiympäristössä näkynyt moderni ja uusi naiseus saapui sodasta toipuvaan kaksikymmentäluvun Eurooppaan kulutushyödykkeiden, reklaamien ja populaarikulttuurin muodossa.
