History Made With a Camera

Progress and science have placed the
scenes enacted during the period of the
civil war on canvas, and the picture play
of 1.-The Birth of Nation will be pre-
scented at the Jefferson theatre, beginning
December 81, lasting through one week,
including four matinee. History tells US
of days when the country was shattered
with a struggle between the home folks,
the north and the south, the turmoil OF
war, and from the same source we are
made familiar with the names, even the
faces and figures who made the hour, the
military genius of the day and their he
roic soldier forces.
We have the word pictures; they have
been told by different historians, and con-
strued and misconstrued by the student
and public, until we sometimes hear there
is no true, unprejudiced history of very
eventful past David w Griffith, an art
ist of southern birth and spirit, tells parts
of therstory on canvass; his genius ana
enthusiasm put the camera to work; he
reproduced, by actual actors, ammunition
and battle scenes, the story as told him
by his father, Jacob w. Griffith, who
commanded southern regiment. He has
woven the facts as told him into a moving
picture story, including some of the most
important and fearful battles of the civil
war So true to life, so thrilling. as re-
produced the play will bear a message
tc parent and child, more lasting than
volumes in book form. The world likes
to see things, loves motion and Griffith
with the aid of the movie man. gives
to the world a story of real battle scenes,
involving our own and our neighbors'
blood.
The world owes thanks to the genius of
today making possible the realization Of
a sacred past. Who can have
reproduced to us in life-like plays,
speaking from canvass. the truth

we've been told by voices that
are dead? The Confederate soldier gave
these stories to his offspring, and gives
today the true meaning of country love.
They dwell, those who are left on the
history of yesterday, those days of SER
vice, of courage and sacrifice. These
stories are told with no bitterness, but
are given in love and union of sympathy
as true history from father to son.
The tears If they fall with the words
are in gratitude for the peace of today.
There is but one flag now, one people,
one cause, in this united country of ours
standing almost alone in the attitude of
peace. And that flag should be hoisted
over responsive audience at the Jeffer-
son next week, an audience forgetting the
past, forsiving the sorrow, studying it's
country's history
The whole purpose of the story is to
paint the truth and the realization of a
nations past, a true story of courage, of
patriotism

Tips When Travelling

Ups ''hNh iiaNNhhS
Il would ask what is the custom
airy and usual tip for porters when one
travels on sleeper, and what is the
customary tip for the porter who
shines ones shoes? What is the gem
eral tip on dining cars? When stop
ping at a hotel and having registered
for rooms, say for four days, should
one pay in advance or when leaving?
Should any but the porter be tipped,
and how much? Can one take the key
of the room with him or should the
porter show one to the room every
night during the stay? Shall one pay
the room rent when leaving and de-
posit the key with the clerk?
INEXPERIENCED TRAVELLER
The amount of the tip depends large
ly upon how long you are upon the
train. If you spend but one night,
hand the porter quarter of a dollar
when you leave in the morning. If he
cleaned your boots, add a dime. The
general rule of tipping a waiter after
meal is to give him one tenth of what
your dinner or supper has cost This
has variations consequent upon the
service he has rendered When enter
ing hotel, register and ask for a
room. To this you will be conducted
by a porter. If you have luggage,
there is no thought of payment in ad-
vance If you have none you become
at once an object of suspicion But
few first class hotels carry this sus-
picion so far as to demand advance
payment from well dressed, we'll
