PARIS, Jan. 27. — All the places of
amusement In Paris took In 17,000,000
francs less In 1915 than In 1914, and
about 44,000,000 francs less than In
1913. The legitimate theatres took in
about 8,100,000 francs, which was only
300,000 francs more than the moving
picture shows, and only a quarter of
the receipts of 1913.
The situation of the moving picture
houses as compared with theatres Is
partly accounted for by the fact that
they were open throughout the year,
but there is also a remarkable growth.
In rive years, Including two and a half
years of war, they have doubled their
receipts, notwithstanding the fact that
the best critics have persistently
maintained that their programs were
becoming more mediocre every month.
