peeted and more than was anticipated
No theater or athenium ever display
cd or could stage the wonderful life
dramas that are shown and encom-
passed on this limited space of the
White screen at the Opera house. and it
is not small wonder that patrons mar
vel ut the wonderful performances ex-
hibited in this list Of pictures. The IL
Elimination" the beautiful religious and
educational production by the Vita
graph Co. is a feature in itself. THE
Tide of Battle" a Kalem masterpiece,
is another good picture. 'zAt Scorg-
giness's Corner" is a beautiful rural
drama that abounds in sentiment and
tender emotions
