I went to the Century Theater every Saturday from the late 1930’s to the early 1940’s when I was a kid. Admission was 10 cents for children, and we were seated up front under the supervision of a “matron” wearing a white uniform and carrying a flashlight.
There was always a double feature with “The Chapters” in between, until one day in 1939 they showed “Gone With The Wind” and admission was 25 cents for the single feature. I turned around and went home that day.
