THE PASSION PLAY
ALL OF NEXT WEEK.


That the management of the Ma
jestic Theatre is anxious to give the
public the best entertainment posi-
Bile is o V by the announcement
that on Monday, March 80, and for
six nights. the world-famous Passion
Play of Ober Ammergau will be pre-
scented in moving picture form. The
films secured are the very latest and
the very best. The sacred so1gs-il-
lustrated-are also those nearest to
the hearts of the people. 1t is appro-
PIRATE that in this season of Lent the
theatre of this town should provide
such entertainment-and who does
not know the story of the ODER Am
mergau Passion Play?
The lovely valley of the Austrian
Tyrol was being ravaged by a terri
Bile sickness-the people were in des-
perate straits-the doctors seemed
powerless, and young and old alike
were being garnered by death. Then
the unhappy people got together, CON
suited their clergy, and finally NOV
ing in solemn procession to the par
ish church vowed before the High AL
tar that + the Good Zoe would take
the plague from their midst they
would act the drama of the Life of
Christ as a votive offering-and that
this might be done in great reverence
they would do SO once in ten years
thug oivi,r +ba ac+0rc II, tho paccinn
Play time to prepare themselves for
their sacred parts, only those men
and women of the highest moral
character being allowed to participate
in the play.
This VOW being made, the plague
m~iraculously stopped its cruel work,
and so hundreds of years ago the Pas
sion Play of Ober Amme7tsau was in
augurated by the devout and sincere
people of the TyroI. 1t was a relig
ious play, indeed-not only in its sub
iect, but in the motive of those Civ
ing it. Thousands from all over the
world travel to ODER Ammergau once
in ten years to witness it. All testify
" the Sood LFe9 vi III d'Dolo ii LIZ
sacred drama. All testify to the beau
ty, dignity and moral uplift the play
gives those who witness it. Therefore
we are pleased that Roswell will
have the opportunity to witness the
latest aad we believe the best repro
duction of this most stirring of all
plays, the Passion Play of ODER
Ammergau,

MYSTERY AND FRAUD.

The Egyptians guarded their mys

their secret now. 1t is this-THERE
ARE NO MYSTERIES.
There can be no secrets in life and
morals, because Nature has so pro-
vided that every beautiful thought
you know. and every precious senti,
mept you feel shall shine out of your
face so that all who are great enough

ciate and appropriate.

Some of the Republican leaders are

He was turned away with the ex-
PLANTATION that no foreigner could en-
ter the sacred portals-that the mi
tiates must be those born in the
shadows Of the temples and nurtured
by holy virgins from infancy in the
faith.
P~ythagoras still insisted, and it
was probably then that he found a
sponsor who made for him the claim
that he was a son of Apollo. And
the holy men peeped out of their
peep-holes in holy admiration for one
who could concoct as big a lie as
they themselves had ever invented.
