The Village Movie Published Weekly by the VILLAGE THEATRE COMPANY, Wilmette, Ill. M. L. SPARR, Editor For Advertising Space apply to THE PRINTING STUDIO, Wilmette, Ill. Volume 1 Wilmette, Illinois, October 24, 1914 Number 13 Children's Night Children's night every Friday! Did you go to the Wilmette Theatre last Friday night? That was some "circus day" wasn't it? Believe the grown-ups had nearly as much fun out of it as the children, didn't they? Anyway, it was good, wasn't it? And that cartoon! Did you laugh until your sides ached? And dear old Jumbo—how loyal he was! Perhaps some of us could learn a good lesson there! Then, of course, Sweedie amused all— or was it more than "amused?" At any rate, we know you enjoyed Children's Night—and we are glad to emphasize the fact that the bill for next Friday is even better still. How many times have you told them "Well, wait until Friday night and then you can go to the picture show because you don't have to go to school the next day?" Of course Friday night ought to be Children's Night —and because the grown-ups have to come with the children, the pictures will be equally interesting to the whole family—though they are selected especially to appeal to and entertain the young folks. The management will endeavor to have particularly suitable and well selected program at the Wilmette every Friday night and you will be well repaid if you set aside that night for "the picture show at the Wilmette." Just see how much better you will feel all day Saturday—and for some days to come! A good laugh always makes us feel better—we have enough sad things which we don't seem to be able to avoid—so let's go out to the "movie" on Children's Night and laugh, and laugh, and laugh! It's a mighty good remedy for lots of things, tempers and disappointments included. And too, it might be a good reward for well gotten lessons and good marks at school—try it on the children for a w^ek and see what good results you will get! Remember, every Friday night at the Wilmette Theatre—only ten cents for the best comedy in the film market. A real Children's Night! Maurice Costello Did you see Maurice Costello last Monday in the two-part feature "The Blood Ruby?" No wonder he has (I've trunks full of letters that he has received from his admirers! (At least that is what they tell us). But whether or not that is so, we are sure that he has thousands and thousands of admirers and a few remarks here regarding him might not be amiss. Six years ago he began his work on the motion pictures, at the Vitagraph studio, where he has remained ever since, and now heads their list. In addition to acting, he directs all his own pictures, and in December, 1913, he headed a company of Vitagraphers sent around the world, which accounts for many of the pictures showing scenes abroad in which he appears. He has played everything from a servant to the Christ—appearing as the Saviour in "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." He is an enthusiastic automobilist and boxer, and is very fond of horseback riding. If you saw him at the Wilmette last week you can appreciate why he has so many admirers, and whether or not you saw him then you will be well repaid if you make it a point to see him the next time he appears in either of our Wilmette picture shows.
