THOUSANDS PAY
HOMAGE TO
MOTHER, SUNDAY

Mother" was paid homage Sun
day, the national Mothers day." In
many loving, tender and beautiful
ways by the sons and daughters Of
Detroit. Many a mothers heart was
gladdened and her eye frightened
by the gift of fragrant flowers or
blossoming plant; pastors in the pull
pits eulogized her virtues and paid
tribute to her unquenchablo love for
her children; little children in the
Sunday schools sang her praises and
older brothers and sisters In the
church services prayed for the
health and happiness of the living
mother. and held communion Of
thought with her who has gone be-
fore.
Everywhere men and women wore
a white flower for the mother passed
beyond, and a colored blossom for
the living mother. Despite the in
clement weather. the church ser
vices were largely attended.

DETROIT OPERA HOUSE.

OsVUOIV OPSUA VSSSe'
David Ward Griflth believes IN
doing things In q big way to con-
vey q big idea. He reached that
climax when he produced THE
Birth of q Nation" Many times the
call has gone forth for some au-
thor to write the great American
play or novel. Grifath has ap-
prosched this goal In the spectacular
movie production showing the
scenes Of the Civil war, and the
bitter period Of reconstruction, for
1t was really during those doubtful
days Of the sixties that the real
American nation was born.
Tho return engagement OF the
Birth Of q Nation" In the Detroit
opera house was tho signal for an
other outpouring Of Dsroiters to
see that masterpiece Of the movies.
Both Sunday afternoon and evening
performances sat enthralled over
tho wonderful effects Of that stu
pendous spectacle.
One of the greatest tributes that
can be paid to any director OF q
moving picture production 10 to say
that he has succeeded In wholly
disarming his audience OF any real
ization Of the mechanics Of his pro-
duction, and to make that audience
live and breathe In the times where
the scenes are laid. Grifith reaches
such a realisation In the stirring
scenes OF the Civil war and the re-
construction period following, as
portrayed In THE Birth Of Q Ma
tion."
Grifith came from a family OF
lighting men who stood the test OF
fire in American defense. and the
FIRE of these traditions was STEPPED
deep In his blood when he planned
the thrilling scenes OF his gigantic
spectacle which took years to per-
feet.
"The Birth OF a Nation" tells the
story from the southern standpoint.
Griffith points out the causes that
led to the rebellion from the south
ern viewpoint. There Is a story
of the days of reconstruction. and
the era of the Ku-Klux khan. Told
from the losers side, his story Is
all the more forceful.
The production of the photo play
has been made with remarkable
fidelity to detail. Lincoln, Lee and
Grant all live In their traditional
guise. The great historical events
of the period, the assassination o,
Lincoln, the signing OF peace al
Appomattox and Sherman's march
TO the sea make material for the
play.
The musical setting is thorough
ly adequate to the film.
