INTOLERANCE" is COMING
David Wark Griffith'S Great
Spectacle Will Be Here
on Sunday.

One of the most stupendous
screen spectacles ever produced,
Intolerance" upon the produc-
ton of which David Wark Grif-
fifth spent the princely sum OF
$2,00O,0O0, is to be the Sunday
attraction at the Nogales Thea
tire.
This great screen sensation
was shown once before in No
gales, the price of admission be,
ing 81. 1t was shown at Ell Pasc
not long ago, and so cents ano
81 were the prices charged
there. 1t never has been shown
anywhere at a price below "a
cents. But the management OF
the Nogales Theatre has secured
it ON terms that will allow him
to make the admission 10 and 20
cents.
No description would do JUS
tice to Intolerance" Even
after one has seen it, he is at a
loss to find words to adequately
inform andone else just what
the picture is like.
The cradle of creation rocks
eternally, and humanity travels
the same road over and over
again. And the picture aims to
show the rocking of the cradle
throughout the ages.
In carrying out this mighty
conception, four parallel stories,
taken from four periods OF the
worlds history hundreds OF
years apart, are told ON the
screen, the stories running side
by side, parallel episodes being
shown together, the stories thus
being developed simultaneously.
Thousands of men and women
were used in some of the scenes,
and the massive scenery for the
play, specially constructed, cost
a small fortune in itself. The
massive walls and temples of
Babylon stood on Hollywood
Boulevard in Los Angeles for
many months after the picture
was completed, mute evidence of
the greatness of the conception
that led to the production of the
work.
When it was first presented to
the public Intolerance" created
q sensation that few pictures of
the screen have equalled. To be
able to see it at popular prices
is an opportunity that few cities
of the size of Nogales can boast.

NO REPUBLICAN DIS
1R|CT CONVENTIONS
THIS YEAR IN maine
Primary Election Law
Does Their Work, So
That Only the State
Convention at Port
land Will Be Held,
Chairman Ham An
nOunceS.

No Republican district conventions
will be held in Maine this year accord
ing to an announcement made by
Chairman Frank J. Ham of the Re-
publican State committee.
The explanation is very simple
one; there is nothing for the conven-
tions to do.
In the old days, when nominees for
Congress were named in the district
conventions, there were hot times, but
this little task has been taken away by
the primary election law. Even at
that, in recent years, it has been Gus
tomary for the district delegates, who
were the same as those to the State
convention, to get together at the time
OF the assembling OF the big show and
formally talk things and elect dele
gates to the National convention and
nominate presidential electors. Now
even this perfunctory duty will be
given up.
When Chairman Ham issued the call
for the Republican State convention,
ne dld not mention the holding of any
district conventions He thereupon
began to receive inquiries as to why
and these inquiries became so many
that he put the whole question up to
Hon. Guy II. Sturgis, the attorney gem
eral who decided that there was no
need of holding any district conven-
tions this year especially as it was an
Off year and no Presidential election
was scheduled. Chairman Ham ac-
cordingly took the matter up with the
chairmen Of the district committees
and received their acauiesence in the
plan not to hold these smaller conyen-
tions.
AS a result of this decision. the big
meeting of the Republican party in
Portland will be devoted to the State
convention and nothing else.
