The Majestic Airdome

They are as new as the Airdome. No one can tell you they have
seen thpse pictures elsewhere. ^None of them have played.any
of the cities. Watch your papersand you’ll see them played in.the
cities probably many weeks from now. Note the ntany wonderful
players you will get to see in one week.

O"""
John Roc-ho and Millard
Louiss. Just about ten days old You will see this picture along
with Chicago, New York and all the very biggest cities.
Wednesday “Lady of the Night,” with Norma Shearer and
Maleome McGregor. Picked by Photoplay magazine as one of the
six best pictures of May.
Thursday Alice Terry, Lewis Stone and John Bowers, in “Con-
fessions of a Queen,” now playing the very biggest cities.
Friday “The Triflefs,” with Mae Busch, Frank Mayo, Eva No-
vak, Elliott Dexter and Walter Hiers. Another new picture..
/ ' h* •- * .' • ' »*
Saturday “Between Friends,” a good picture but not a new one.
The policy of the majestic Airdjome will be the same as the Ma-
jestic Theatre has been, showing 'the very best that can be had in
motion pictures and in addition, about every two or three weeks,
showing vaudeville acts, plays ormusical comedy shows. However
our showing of these will be controlled by the shows available as we
will only show the ones that we know or have every reasod to be-
lieve are good.
We have made every effort to make the Airdome pleasant and
comfortable. We are sure you will spend many pleasant hours
there with us this summer. You can be at ease, keep cool out in the
fresh air and enjoy a good show at reasonable prices always.
Don’t fail to see this first week of wonderful pictures. Every ef-
fort has been made to select the very best of the very newest pic-
tures.
Yours always for^the best and
Kinds..
