In cabins that cannot be reached by automobile and deserts that cannot be crossed by boulevards, the John the Baptists, the hermits and the prophets can strengthen their souls.

Here are lonely places as sweet for the spirit as was little old New Salem, Illinois, one hundred years ago, or the wilderness in which walked Johnny Appleseed.
Now it is the independence of Spirit of this New Arabia that I hope the Denver Art Museum can interpret in its photoplay films, and send them on circuits to the Art Museums springing up all over America, where sculpture, architecture, and painting are now constantly sent on circuit.
Let that already established convention--the "circuit-exhibition"-- be applied to this new art.
And after Denver has shown the way, I devoutly hope that Great City of Los Angeles may follow her example.

Consider, O Great City of Los Angeles, now almost the equal of New York in power and splendor, consider what it would do for the souls of all your film artists if you projected just such a museum as Denver is now projecting.

Your fate is coming toward you.

Denver is halfway between Chicago, with the greatest art institute in the country, and Los Angeles, the natural capital of the photoplay.
