The Brightest Spot on Ocean Gty’s Boardwalk That Is what the people of Ocean City are saying of the Moorlyn and there is no little wonder, for it is as bright as day down In the heart of town where Ocean City's favorite theatre stands when the home of the world's best pictures is open to the pub-

lic.

With the coming of the Bennethum Theatres to Ocean City ihey promised to conslstenly give the best pictures the market could afford. They have kept their word to the letter. The “Lost World" that Just closed its week's run. marked the pinnacle of excellence. but dose tn Its wake come two other pictures. “Drucllla With a Million." and "The Iron Horse," equally as big. thrilling and as wall produced, and we ask what more can be done. But this firm does not stop by merely keeping a promise. They always gp one better. We are now informed that these two productions will be given to the public at no raise in price. It was necessary, during the showing of "The Lori World" to make a slight advance In the price of admission to conform with a detail of the First National crntract. under which It was purchased, but those mho the picture, and who in this city and the surrounding country did not see it. have said It was worth double Ihe price. "Dnicllla With a Million." with Mary Carr, "the mother of the screen;" Kenneth Hariat. and Priscilla Bonner will play at the Moorlyn tomorrow. Saturday, and Monday and Tuesday, August 1. 3. and 4. It will be Immediately followed by "The Iron Horse." the William Fox super-production, featuring the popular young star. George O'Brien, with Made Bellamy. Will Walling and Glayds Hulette.

At a recent Interview with Mr. George H. Kline and Sid Siauley, personal representatives for Mr. George H. Bennethum. In Ocean City, we learned much of interest and good news for the people that it would not be fair to tell now. but coming events nast shadows before and soon you will know of more, bigger and better events In store, ao In a word of advice we say. "Keep your eyes on the Moorlyn and Park Theatres, there is something doing every minute." During the Interview these

gentlemen said In part:

Mr. Kline: "I was agreeably surprised at the number of people that came to see 'The Lost World' a second and even a third time. Our ruccess with this picture far exceeded my expectations. I am greatly pleased that we are permitted to give 'The Iron Horse' to our people at the standard admission prices of the Moorlyn. It is a picture that will have a greater appeal than any other I can think of. Everyone that Is American loves America and things American, and this picture of American history In that dark period Just after the civil war. describing so vividly the facts and with Its finely Interwoven love story, will ha>e an appeal for

picture autographed by his owi hand bangs in my office, and he and Madge, fresh from her conquests on the speaking stage, are a wonderful lead for any picture.” Mr. Stanley: “I have seen many pictures of all kinds, but I 'eel ‘The Iron Horse' has filled a place left vacant a long time. It is wonderful. You can't do Justice talking about It, you have to see It I Juat wish I could tell all the people of Ocean City the way we all appreciate the support that has been given our Park Theatre, at Park Place and the Boardwalk. We call it The Moorlyn’s Little Brother,' because It has the same shows, under the same management, backed by the same guarantee o' excellence, and it Is such a nice, clean, comfortable, homey little place It Is a fitting relative for this big and beautiful theatre. Mr. Bennethum haa always told us to spare no expense to make bis theatres comfortable, bright and convenient for thel 1 - patrons, and Just now we «re adding a markee to Mr. Park, enlarging his ventilating system, lighting him up Just a bit. We want to iAow the people of the Gardens we appreciate the way they have stood back of us. We want to do more fore them, and we are doing It. The only thing we can't Improve If we try is the pictures. The entertainment offered Is Just like the Moorlyn. the best on the market.” and when we read the sheet he tossed over the desk, we knew

he was right.
