MODEL
HIGHWAY
Between This City and
MdySyiIIe Through Bath
and Fleming Counties
Enthusiastic Meeting Held In This
City Saturday Afternoon.

A movement is on foot to- build
amodel highway between this city
and Maysville through the cities
of Sharpsburg and Flemingsburg,
distance of so miles. A COM
mittee from this county and Bath
county went to Flemingsburg and
Maysville Thursday to confer with
the fiscal courts and business men
of those places. They were given
a cordial reception and the fiscal
courts and business men assured
the committee that they would
donate literally to the movement.
Saturday representatives from
the other three counties came to
this city and an enthusiastic meet
ing was held at the Opera House.
A committee was appointed COM
posed of the County Judge from
each of the four counties to go to
Frankfort Tuesday to insist that
the Governor do all in his power
to secure an appropriation from
the Government, and in the event
any of the county judges could
not 90 they were to send substi-
tute.
The Government has appropriate
ed 100000 to aid the different
States in model road building and
propose to furnish competent
engineer to have charge of the
work and to build SO miles of con-
tinious model road in each State,
same to be situated on a rural
route.
1t is estimated the work will
cost about $4,000 and the differ
ence between what the government
donates (which will be about $10,-
000) will have to be given by
the different counties and by pop
>ular subscription.
All four of the counties seem
very enthusiastic over the propo-
sition and the road seems assured
in the event they get the Govern
ment appropriation. Following is

DAVIS THEATER.
Presenting Mime. Sarah Bernhardt in the Photopiay Masterpiece, Queen Elizabeth, in Four Reels.

It is not often that theatergoers have an opportunity to see the great est actress in the world, barring none, at motion picture prices, but that is exactly what Norwich people will have the last three days of this week, for wonderful motion picture of Mime. Sarah Bernhardt, the celebrated French star in Queen Elizabeth, one of the greatest triumphs of her notable career as an actress. At an enormous salary, Mime. Bernhardt was secured to present this drama with her own excellent company and without excep- tion it is the greatest achievement in the motion picture world in years. Her marvellous intelligence and astound- ing dramatic powers make the histor- 1cal incidents in the play as real as today, and her faithful delineation of the lively queen makes the original live again. All the passion and pathos of Elizabeth's life and love- all her pride and vanity, the smiles and Sor- rows os her mingled fortunes throb and thrill in the compelling realism and magnetic mastery of Bernhardt's art. The flame of her genius has been breathed into the dust of Elizabeth and the thrilling page of history that she wrote in blood and tears is en- acted before us with all the charac- ters as much alive as the reader. Truly the greatest photoplay ever exhibited in four parts. The Balance of the exciting western comedy drama Ma bel's Heroes and The Birthday Present are two roaring comedies. The Ian sings, two clever gymnastS, and Whit man~and Davis in a comedy protean fravesty. By request Mgr. Al Craig will sing some of the old time favorite songs, making the banner show of the season.

BREED THEATRE. The BiosraPh Cast Presents Oil and Water, Two Reel Feature.

Love is queer thing: it comes and it goes but nowhere is this phrase exemplified more fully than in the big Biograph feature at the Breed. This picture is in two reels. and tells of the love of an idealist, who thinks he finds his soul mate in the leader Of the big ballet at the leading theatre The Greek classical dance, of the Fleet ing Hours, is being presented when he is fascinated by the attractive pre-, mfere. He woos and wins her, but whiEe she Is not deceitful with him, 1t becomes evident that their paths do not lie in the same direction, and once more the completion of a bitter experience is seen in the strong climax Of this big production. The Marvellous Pathe Weekly is also on, today, and the Essanay company is represented by the heroic western masterpiece en- titled The Sheriffs Child. The Amer ican Pathe company portrays, A White Rose. a bewildering comedy drama, that is backed by an unusually strong plot, with beautiful scenic accessories.
