Bell's Opera House

Both Bell’s Opera House and the Orpheum Theatre at Hillsboro were mentioned in an item in the December 12, 1908, issue of The Moving Picture World:

“Hillsboro, Ohio.—The Bell Opera House, which only opened with moving pictures on Thanksgiving, reports good business. Only high-class pictures are shown and highclass vaudeville.

“The Orpheum Theater has discarded the old style folding chairs and installed comfortable metal frame high back opera chairs.”
