Just an amateur concert can amount to a good deal

when Charlie Chaplin, Sid Grauman, the theatre owner, Our

Mary, and Doug take a hand in it

& The still from The Kid, a characteristic scene, gives a direct

cue for the exhibitor who is so situated that street

exploitation serves the proper purpose for his box office.

„No picture was ever so strong in drawing power“

Editorial content. „THE KID, Charles Chaplin‘s feature length

production published by First National as one of the

,Big Five‘ series, has broken the box office record of the

Randolph theatre, Chicago, on its world premiere.

The news that Chaplin is again to be seen upon the screen

is worth front page position in any newspaper in the

country. But no picture was ever so strong in drawing power

that it could not be made stronger in drawing power.“
