Judith OF BETHULIA"

Biograph's judith of Bethulia" is
making a remarkable record in this,
the second year of its run. It was re-
leased in February, 1914, and if fig
ures speak the truth, it is a more pop
ular picture today than it was a year
ago.. There is no more significant ex-
strong production.
When first released, the superior
quality of judith of Bethulia" was
admitted by all who saw it, but not a
few exhibitors, unable to view the
film, concluded from the title that it
was a dry, Biblical subject and hest
tated on that account. Gradually it
became noised abroad that judith"
was a genuinely popular attraction,
strong in the human interest of the
story as we'll as it's scenic magnifi-
cence. ...-

more than $50 letters from exhibitors

to accept the resignation. When Mr..
Brannon left the University of North
