BIG PICTURE FOR CHRISTMAS
"SaphO." Companion Picture to 'Last Days of POmpeii," Comes to Imperial Theatre on Next Friday Night,
 Dee. 27. Don't Miss it.

ne alert management of the New Imperial Theater has secured another great picture for Friday night, Decem- Der v, in Alphonse Daudet's "Sapho, ' a companion picture of the "Last Days of Pompeii,N being introduced in the United States by the World Special Films Corporation. This is d grand production.
 Cecie Guyon in the role of Sapho dominates the picture. This wonder ful woman has not only youth and beauty; she possesses also in marvel ons degree the third and most impor- tafIt factor in this desirable equipment of an actress-brainS. Whether it be in the tenderest moments of a woman who has forgotten all her former loves and exists only for one man, or in the stormy scenes with the man who fails to appreciate her great passion. or in the final view we have of her as she meditates on the past and decides that the time has come to go with one who blindly loves, she holds you firmly in the grasp of her great artistry Chas. Krauss is the Jean Gaussin He gives a finished performance If in the begin ming he lookssolder than the twenty years of Daudet's character there is ample compensation for the theatrical license in the skill and experience he brings to the interpretation of the youngster from the South who comes to Paris to prepare for the consular service. It must be conceded that the pro- ducer has been careful in the handling of delicate subject. Plainly it has been made for Anglo-Saxons and with due regord for their standards.
 "Sapho" is not only well produced; there are splendid acting, fine setting, elaborate costumes, large groups and Eclair photography.
 Forrest City is among the two or three cities in Arkansas to secure
 'Saphoi and it comes here to fin in an | off date
 Prices 10 and 20 cents.
