For the Photoplay
Fans of Omaha
There are thousands of people in
Omaha who are interested in photo
plays and who attend them regularly.
The public is becoming more discrim
inating about the pictures they, go to
see. They are no jonger satisfied to
just go to the movies. They wish to
pick their shows and are willing to go
a considerable distance in order to see
the show they like. Tastes vary
some like the drama some the mixed
program, and some the comedies, and
these tastes govern the selection of the
show. A
This discrimination creates a de
mand for information about the photo
plays and the offerings at the various
show houses. The Bee is furnishing
its readers this information complete
on Sundays and during the week.
