"Intolerance" Cominu.

j.. w Griffiths latest great spec
tacle, "Intolerance,' one of the current
seasons biggest hits in New York,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, san
Francisco and Los Angeles, is booked
to appear at the Missoula theater July
/, 9. and 4.
In this, said to be the most mag
nificent production of all time, Mr.
Griffith gives visual presentation Of
four different decades-mishty Baby
Ion in the days Of Belshazzar. Judea at
the time of the Nazarine. Medieval
France when Catherine de Medci die
tated to her son, Charles TX, and the
present-and throughout them all he
sustains most interestingly the motive
Of the play--love's struggle throughout
tho ages.
Possibly the most stupendously mag
nificent scenes are those which, repre-
senting RclshaZzar's feast disclose a
panoramic view of over Il mile of an
cient world splendors and architectural
wonders against which diaphanously
attired women and picturesquely clad
men stand out in steroscopic relief.
Such battle scenes as those reveal
ing the clash of BelshazZar's forces and
the hordes of Cyrus. the Persian on
and about the mighty walls of Babylon
are breath taking. You see eatapults
and gathering rams, cross bows, and
flaming engines in action. You see
huge moving siege towers with their
compliment of gladiators crash to the
ground: you see mighty men in hand
to hand conflict - ancient warfare
thrilling. inspiring, SO real that you
cannot believe it mimic.
There are three love stories in IN
toleran ce,' each with it's own set of
characters. The principal players of

AMERICA IN DANGER

\ letter from Bishop John p Car

Liberty Loan bonds. was read at all
masses yesterday In st. Francis
Xaviers. For patriotic reasons the
bishop asked Catholics to support the
government whole-heartedly. not only
in buying bonds but also in registering
tomorrow for the selcctive conscrip-
ton.
The bishop called attention to the
fact that America. the haven Of per-
secuted Catholics from other lands
and the hope Of democracy is threat
ened by war. He said, in part:
From a business standpoint Liberty
Bonds are a good investment.
But 1t is the patriotic reasons back
of the loan which should chiefly ap-
peal to us. First Of all. it is matter
of common loyalty to our country. Our
country is in need, and she asks our
America Endangered.
"Then we should not forget that 1t
is America that looks to us for help,
and that the very principles for which
America stands are endangered. If
America fails In the present war. our
children for generations to come may
be held in the bondage of militarism
and autocracy, and the freedom for
which our fOrefathers hled and died in
1876 and 1861 may become n mere
memory. Democracy is in the bal
ance. If America fails, democracy is
almost sure to perish from the earth.
"As Catholics we are obliged to come
to the help of our government in the

is not of our making The fact is the
war is on. 1t is the law of the land,
and we must obey it. It was Christ
