THE CLANSMAN ONE
OF The BEST
One of Few Really Successful
Plays Now on Fourt Irium-
plant Tour at EIkSl TheateI
Monday Night,

or the hundreds of plays h a I'LL
up space on the %billhoards and in the
advertising columns of the newspa-
pers, few really score q permanent
success. Most Of them are talked
about for Il while, seen once or twice,
and then forgotten. If a different
type are such familiar aud well-loved
offerings as Way Down East In
Old Kentueky," Uncle Toms Cabin
or Ben Hur." Thesc latter strike a
vein Of sentiment and interest that
appeals to all the people all the time,
and their continued success Is unques-
tionable. The Clansman," a story Of
the Ku KluX Khan, by Thomas Dixon,
Jr., is the latest Of the standard
plays to come into this class but it
promises to surpass them all in the
aTectionate regard of the public and
the term Of its existence. Though
only on the boards a little over three
wears. it has been witnessed by nearly
100000 people. The demand for it
grows by what it feeds on. The
Clansman' bears a curious relation to
lIldl Olilfl SltNNSH VI hAI q . y
ago. Uncle Toms Cabin II is de-
scribed by its author as an answer
and a sequel to Mrs. stoves immor-
tai work. AS the other was the black
side of the negro problem, SO The
Clansman'' presents the white Oh
Anglo-Saxon side of racial questions.
Rooted IN American soil and institu-
tlons. revealing the glorious struggle
Of the southern whites against mis-
government and chaos after the civil
war. retelling a beautiful love story
of the blue and gray, and founding all
its extraordinary scenes on the bed
rock Of truth that the white is the
natural superior of the yellow, black
or brown races and must forever
maintain that superiority and sepa-
%rateness. The Clansman' has all
those elements that make not only for
an American but a Worldwide success
for many years to come. The visit of
THE Clansman' to the Elks' theater
next Monday evening. December "a

What this country needs right now
about as badly as anything we can
think OF is a law to restrain the gang
OF hungry half-starved cattle whose
owners hope to keep at no expense to
themselves on feed belonging to 9TH

so serious If these cattle would have
any respect for an ordinary fence. but
they stop at nothing. TO bolt through
or over Il good harbwiTe fence is to
them a mild form OF amusement.
