During the past year we have truthfully and Bincerely endeavored in every way to present to the Southern Oregon public the most outstanding and highest calibre entertainment procurable. We have diligently combed the markets for screen attractions of proven worth, and the same identical programs have been presented in a multitude of cities elsewhere at much higher ad mission prices ... in fact twice as much In many instances. In the meantime our film costs have been mounting all out of proportion to previous seasons, and it is continuing thus,, despite the drop in costs in other commodities. Because of this, and because we are extremely anxious to maintain our high level of quality entertainment, and because, under our present admission price sched ule we are unable to continue these types of programs, we find it imperative that we revise our admission prices. Beginning on Sunday, June 26th, 1932, our new mat inee adult general admission price at the Holly and Fox Craterian theaters will be 25 cents, and our evening adult general admission price will be 3D cents,. The children's price in both theaters continues at 10 cents anytime. We are sincerely grateful for your past patronage, and it will be our sole aim to offer only the utmost in service and entertainment in the future, and we trust we will continue to enjoy the hearty cooperation ex tended to us by our friends in the past.
