MOBILE, ALA. – Motion picture exhibitors hereabouts
have not had the most rosy time for the past few months because
of the interposition of events over where they have had
no control. First came the European war and the consequent
disruption of shipping, not that there was not an
abundance of desirable material to be shipped, but the demand
for bottoms to be used in the transportation of more
essential commodities than lumber, which is the chief export
from this port, was so great that vessels naturally
sought the better cargoes with the result that business
slackened, and with the reduced earnings of the
wage-worker, there was a corresponding diminution in attendance
at places of amusement.“ (...)
„Enterprise of Local Exhibitors.“ (...)
„It is worthy to note that one of the Mobile theatres
exhibited E. H. Sothern in The Chattel, day before
that feature was presented in New Orleans, and New Orleans is supposed to be the N‘Yark of the film business in the
South. The same is true of Charlie Chaplin in The Pawnshop.
In both instances the enterprising Mobile managers
had the satisfaction of playing to capacity business and
at advanced prices.“ (...)
