Teaches a Story.

Mr. Edison sought to teach the
youngsters by means of the moving
picture.
In short he sought the significant
facts relating to modern life and set
them forth-almost as poem.
Longfellow, in poem wrote the
story of the Acadians and called it
"Evangeline.'
That story depicted by the pest
picture players in existence, is shown
at the Casino tonight. 1t is work
of art, and one of those rare pictures
which, being significant, are to be
seen in Moscow only at the Casino.

man who asked what they were do
