To those who have read the "Quo
Vadis" and to those who have not read
it, there will be almost an equal
amount of interest at the forthcom-
ing production at Bells Opera House
on March 20. No more popular work
has been written in the last half CEN
tury, the sale of this book by the va
rious publishers in this country alone
running far into the millions. The
plot deals with Christian maiden who
h trfunarhasat Ia Ia hfss- faith and who
in the simplicity of religion, converts
her pagan prosecutor to the true cross.
Nero, the Roman butcher, and Peter,
the Apostle of Christ, are also promi-
nent characters in the play. The
management promise special scenery
for every act, the. entire original cast
and an absolutely perfect perform
ance of one Of the greateet plays the
stage has ever seen.
