DON'T miss seeing "Cinderella''
Thursday night, March 18th. This pic
ture is a wonderful adaptation of the
story and ought to be full of interest
to both young and old. Miss Mable

high figure. This picture is costing

but trusting that the patronage vii
be good the admission price will be
ten cents to all.
