the city, with rugged and precipitous
pathways, rises the towering Vesuvius,
and near its crater the palace OF the
gods. 1t Is an accurate panorama view
OF the city just before the eruption OF the
great volcano. Over $50 people dressed
In the romano toga and the vcstments OF
that age give a slight idea OF what the
inhabitants were like. Nydla, the blind
flower girl. whose life was so shaped by
the Roman Glaucus and tho Athenian
Arbaces, Is seen plying her vocation.
The civil dignltarIes and senators
emerge from the temple gates and watch
the boys OF the city enjoying their holl-

steps, where the trumpet sounds md the
games commence. All this grand spec
tacle Is carried out TO perfection.
