60 aOVER The TOP
At Bentley Grand, September 2O.1
With Sefqt. Guy EmDev.

"Over the Top Vitagraph
superfeature founded on Sergeant
Guy Empey's famous war book OF
the same title, has been booked by
Manager Nelson Of the Bentley
Grand Teeater, and will be shown
here.
Sergeant Empey, probably the
best known soldier Of all the mil
lions who have fought in the trench
es Of France to stem the tide OF
German barbarism. appears as the
star Of "Over the Top" and he il
said to enact vividly the stirring
experiences met by the French and
British who held the lines against
the Boche in the first mad months
of the war.
lover the Top" the first au-
thentic reproduction Of the drama
and tragedy of the world war. has
been hailed as one Of the greatest
photoplays in the history Of motion
pictures. and is ranked as the fore
most Of all the super-productions OF
the screen because Of the personali-
ty Of the star and the importance
Of the play as contribution to the
historital phase of the war and its
relation 20 the war work Of the
United States. Because, q regular
army training camp was used in
making the trench scenes and Am
erican regulars were employed in
the mimic battles, the play has re-
ceived semi. official recognition
from the War Department. and it
thus takes a place in the great ma
chinery of the Government scheme
Of training the National Army and
the people to a realization Of the
task that lies before the United
States.
The little American, who is q ma
tive Of Ogden. Utah, was one Of
the first Americans to risk his
life in the defense Of civilization
when the Germans made their as
sault on the freedom. of mankind.
He Joined the First Royal Fusiliers
Of London, one Of the contingents
that made up Kitchener . Army /"
and served eighteen months in the
front line trenches as infantryman,
machine gunner and bomber, and
was wounded seven times in battle.
He wrote lover the Top at
the behest Of friends who were con-
WINGED his story had value as pat
riotic document, and he took the
lecture platform on the same basis.
Overnight almost, this plain soldier
with plain story Of the war be-
came an international figure. He
was in demand all over the coun-
try and he spoke to hundreds of
thousands Of people.
However, Albert E. Smith sue
ceeded where all the others had
failed, and Empey consented to
appear in the Vitagraph produc-
ton only when convinced that a
motion picture playing up the
high lights of "Over the Top"
would "show Americans just
what we are up against over
there"
Manager Nelson considers
s'Over the Top" the most import
ant motion picture that he has
ever shown to his patrons. He
says that while there is a strong
patriotic appeal in it, there is al
so most thrilling drama in
which the romance and humor-
