THE LAKE SHORE MEWS. FRIDAY. MAY U, 1MI RUB iSDUSIRT RANKS F1RH IN Miles of Film Produced Each Year Would Encirde the Earth Over Three Times. MILLIONS PRODUCED Over $20,000,000 Spent Making Photoplays, Ex- clusive of Features. in --. Frank G. Mortimer l. of Miss May Murdov. Mr James K. «eek at Lewlstoo. UL Mr. and lira. Frank Laws enter- tained with a high fa ■■■j lay eve- The fifth largest industry In the railed States! So ranks the photo- play or the motion picture industry. according to the recent report of the census bureau In Washington. Up to the beginning of December 1914, American film manufacturers, turned oat no leas than 10,000 separate reels of negative film, from each of which an average of thirty-five positive copies were made. The standard reel of photoplay is 1.000 feet long, which makes 360.000.- dOO feet of film all told, Including both the originals and the positives! About 68,000 miles of motion pictures- enough to go round this old earth of ours a little lees than three times. And it took eleven months to make this gigantic tape*measure of Dim. The Cost Of Production. The cost of producing the ordinary sort of originals or negatives is at least $2 a foot. This means that ap- proximately $20,000,000 was spent during the first eleven months of 1914 In making negatives alone. The 350,- 000,000 feet of copies cost 4 cents a foot, which total! 217,000,00© for the posltivee. Altogether $37,000,000 spent In the manufacture of films In less than a year. Some figures I Yee, quite some, but they are not all, for this estimate does not take Into account the special features which have recently become such a prominent factor in the film in- dustry. On a elngle one of these fea- ture photoplay productions it Is neither startling nor remarkable for the producer to spend from $300,000 to IBOO.000. Now then, do a little calculating on your own elates and future "possibilities of film finance with the above data and the advice that there is on an average at the present time a new feature-film com- pany born every day of the week. Photoplay-House Statistics. it is estimated that there are today between 17,000 and 18,000 photoplay theaters in the United States, to which more than 10,000,000 people go dally.

"In order to prove that female love- liness is whatever we choose to ad- mire, I wrote a story for the Satur- day Evening Post and called it "The Slim PrlnceBS."
