AT THE THEATRES
At paIaca Airdome Tomorrow

When "Italy's Flaming Front"
comes to the Palace Airdome tomor-
row, local motion picture fans will be
given the opportunity of seeing and
understanding many of the military
and naval miracles accomplished by
our Italian allies during the past few
months. At the same time it is safe
to say that after viewing these pic
lures, which caused veritable SEN
sation in film circles when shown
on Broadway recently, very person
who has even the remotest interest
in the winning of the war will leave
the theatre with his respect and ad-
miration for the heroic fighters of
the Crowned republic" increased a
thousandfold. Supreme in military en-
gineering, the Italians are shown acs
complishing the so-called impossible
in bridging huge chasms in the
snow-apped Alps of Trentino by
means of steel cables, over which
armies have been transported with
their supplies and ammunition; in dig
cling miles of trenches along the ice
bound peaks where avalanches and
blizzards have to be provided against;
and in hauling huge siege guns up
thousands of feet over trails that
skirt the edges of vast abysses, or
virtually tremble on the SUBMITS of
giant peaks of ice All previous war
pictures look tame and uninspiring
when placed in comparison with this
novel epic of warfare carried on amid
the mountains that split the clouds.

AUTO CLUB ROAD
BULLETIN COVERS
LOCAL HIGHWAYS

The Automobile Club of Southern
i, California has issued the following
road bulletin of interest to all motor
lists:
San Francisco Coast-Remalns the
, same as reported in road bulletin OF
September Is, except that, as re-
suit of the .ains of September 27, de-
tours are very sticky and muddy, and
will be fairly passable unless the
rain continues.
San Francisco Inland-Owing to
the rains of September 27, the Ridge
route has been closed, and the Boquet
Canvon is very muddy. The best
route at the present time is by way
Of the Mint canyon, from Saugus to
Palmdale, Palmdale to Willow
Springs, Willow Springs to Mohave,
and thence over the Tehachapi press
to Bakersfield. From Bakersfield
north to Delano, pavement is complete.
From that point choice Of two routes
is to be had, one via Ducor, Terra
Bella, Porterville, Lindsay and Exter
and Visalia. This route is paved the
entire distance, and is the most
scenic, going through orange groves
and skirting the foothills. 1t is about
"a miles further this way. The other
route, via Upton and Tulare, is the
most direct for the motorist desiring
to make time. At this time, however,
there is a very disagreable detour OF
about eight miles, owing to road con-
struction. This should be open and
ready for use by November l, 1918.
Detour we'll signed with "Best Tenn
porary Route" signs. Branch office
