esting also to learn that Mr.. Grif-
nth was the first American to en-
ter the front-line trenches. This
was of course, before the United
States entered the world war.
For eighteen long months these
players were with Mr.. Griffith, and
their stories of suffering are by all
odds the most interesting ever told
by players for the motion picture
camera. AS a result of their eXpe-
rience, the two Gish girls were for
long time almost nervous wrecks,
while their mother suffered from
hysteria for many weeks after her
return to the United States.
And yet the very surprise of the
Griffith production is the fact that
il is not, in any sense. a war picture.
To the contrary, Mr.. Griffith himself
describes his work as "a love story
of the war" 1t is further stated
that for more than forty minutes aft
er the story begins one sees only a
picture of peaceful, happy country

in a small French village before the
war broke out. The war that comes
after merely is used as back
ground. for the drama. Yet, while
the picture is not propaganda in any

raignment of the Germans that its
principal appeal is said to be some

.CADILLAC FIRST
TO RESTORE PRICES
" Following Signing of Armistice
4 Terms.

In announcing its policy for 1913
1919, the Cadillac Motor Car COM
pany made the interesting revelation
that prices on it's cars were restored
to figures which prevailed before pro-
duction vas restricted by government
order. This order had resulted in an
increase of $500 on all Cadillac
models. Restoration Of the old fig
ures was effective at midnight, No
vember 16.
"It must be remembered that the
Cadillac has been on an exclusive war
basis" said General Sales Manager E.
c. Howard, land deliveries will
naturally be limited until the factory
is restored to a peace footing. We
assume that peace will shortly follow
the entire capacity Of the factory will
again be devoted to the production of
Cadillac cars.
"At the first intimation Of the sign
ing Of the arm1stice, we fastened to
assure the organization that Cadillac
was prepared.
to the figures which prevailed before
automobile production was restricted
by governmental order. While this
action works an immediate hardship
on US, our prompt decision was in
spired by a sense of fairness to the
public. The removal Of the cause for
the higher prices meant for Cadillac
only one thing-the automatic reduc-
ton of those prices.
Cadillac was first to its
postwar model, the continuance of
the Type 81, in the following words
on June 18th, 1918: Except as we
refine our WI refinements and sur
pass our own standards, the Cadillac
of a year from today will be the
splendid Cadillac Of today"
