OLD FAvoR1TE COMING.

The play that never grows old, "Tn
Old Kentucky" is announced as an
early attraction here. The magnetic
qualities of this phenomenal amuse-
mcnt offering are known and reeogniz-
ed without question-and the piece
goes on, season after season, to re-
markable patronage. "In Old Ken
tucky" has become famous in the an
nails of the stage, and its record Of
success during more than decade os
continuous presentation reads more like
fiction than fact. The latest achieve
ment of this famous play was its -e-
cent spring engagement at the big Bos-
ton theatre, where il attracted more
playgoers than it did during its orig
inal run at the same playhouse, more
than twenty years before, when the or
iginal New England triumph of the
play was one of the wonders of Bos-
ton theatrical circles.

The photo drnmR Of Creation is dedi-
eated to the people of the world by the
International BIhie Stndents associas
tion in effort to stimulate an interest
in God 3 Word. tes :.
1t was started in New York City,
and is now showing in many of the
principal cities of the United States.
California is getting her share Of this
splendid production, "Creation" hav.
ing been shown in San Francisco, ut
the Marlborough in Oakland, in Los
Angeles and in many Of the smaller
cities and towns.
Beginning Saturday, August %, and
thereafter every afternoon at 3 and
evenings at 8 o'clock win be shown
this splendid Biblical history at the
Grand Opera House. No collections
will be taken and no admission viii
be charged.
The program will be chunged every
other day. The drama is in -four parts,
each two hours long. Miles Of films,
most of which are hand eolored, and
hundreds of beautiful hand-colored
slides trace this interesting history in
a most splendid and instructive manner
from creation to the present time. The
immense popularity OF this production
guarantees splendid enthusiasm and ap-
probation at Salem.
The international Bible Students as
s0ciation operates under British char
ter and has offices at lancaster Gate
W., London. It's American hcadquar-
ters are at No. II Hicks street, Brook
lyn. The association is supported by
voluntary contributions. 1t has a large
staff of lecturers and its activities ex-
tend to all the principal cities Of the
United States and Europe. The object
of the association is, through various
means, to encourage Bible study, and
in the exhibitions at the Grand Opera
House it hopes to be especially helpful
in this regard.
Careful investigation made by pub
lie librarians, who have given picture
shows in connection with their work,
has shown that the attending of these
exhibitions stimulate the demand for
literature.
The experiments tried in the Borough
of Queens with the moving pictures re.
veal the interdependenee between the
films and study of secular affairs. II
is the belief of the promoters of this
novel enterprise that the witnessing Of
OF Biblical events will

New York, Aug-sI5.-1t is agreed on
Broadway that General Sherman must
have been o theatrical manager. Other
wise he would not have been able to ex-
press in such explicit language just
what war is.
As you cit at home and read war
news, and have visions of Kaiser Bill
challenging the world to fight; YOU may
not think that this lord of war, who
is now in the role he has long waited
10 play, is missing up your theatrical
plans for the winter. Well-he' is.
Kaiser Bill not only is striving vain
gloriously to muss up the whole of
Europe, but through his wholesale
broadside, hurting of declarations of
war is causing little old Broadway no
end of worry.

last couple of years over wonderful
successes and the outlook for the COM
ing season which was good until all this
