This theater was probably the house built in 1916 as the Holmes Theatre, as noted in the August 5 issue of The Moving Picture World that year:

“The Holmes Brothers of West Terre Haute are building The Holmes theater at 213-15 Paris avenue. The house is just two doors west of the theater being operated by the Holmes Brothers at this time.”
