Theatre

In addition to the White, the Wonderland, the Royal, and the Elite (later Pix) the 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory also lists a house called the New Grand. The White is mentioned in the newspaper at least as early as September, 1909, and in the October 15, 1910 issue of The Nickelodeon. The Wonderland is listed in the 1912 Polk guide, along with the Elite, but the 1914 Polk lists only the New Grand at Le Mars, which can’t be right. There must have been other theaters in operation that year. Le Mars is one of those frustrating little towns with only sparse information available.
