& „EASY“ MONEY
Harry Miller, the all-night movie man, raked in three
thousand kopeks on „Easy Street“ last week.
Then the last day one man came out and said he „didn‘t
care a dam for it.“
Harry shoved a dollar into his hand and said:
„Say, man, go see a doctor. You‘re sick!“

& EASY STREET, with Charlie Chaplin, (Mutual) –
„The best thing Chaplin has ever done. The plot is good,
the photography is good and a number of new stunts
are introduced. As a whole, clean. It broke all house records
at the Rose Theater by $1,000. It brought $3,200
in seven days in a 298-seat house at ten cent admission
prices, which I think a 300-seat theater record.
I am considering rebooking it for another week. Chaplin may
be dead, as some claim, but you‘ll have to prove
it to me!“ – Harry Miller, Rose Theater. – Downtown house.
