THE LIFE OF CHRIST.
A Sacred Drama Shown by Moving
Pictures.

The first record we have of any
production of this kind is in the
fourth century, A. D., among the
Greeks, and was called Christian
Paschon." All through the middle
ages different dramas of this nature
were portrayed, chiefly by religious
orders. During the crusades many
similar plays were given for the pur-
pose of stimulating the people to ac-
tivity in the saving of the Holy City
from the hands of the Saracens. In
December, 1907, Pathe Freres of
France offered to the people of all
nations his wonderful production,

ed moving pictures, and so great has
been the demand for this picture
been that 1t has been shown in the
larger cities to the exclusion of all
other moving pictures.
