FILM AT COLUMRI' SHOWS LINCOLN IN
 HIS YOUNGER DAYS

Admirers or Abraham Lincoln have treat in store Tor them at the Co., Iumbia theater today and tomorrow. where a Selznick superfeaturc, The Land of Opportunity, is showing in which the principal character is that of the Great Emancipator." No more faithful portrayal of a Lincoln type has ever been seen than that of Ralph lnce, who. besides appearing in the leading role. also directed the picture.
 Taking the Civil war president when he was a rail splitter and when he was campaigning against stephen A. Doug las. Mir. Ince gives a natural portrayal of 4he character as the present genera . ton has learned to know it, that it all most seems ar though Lincoln, himself was appearing to teach the great les son that the price of liberty is loyalty.
 When Lincoln was a boy a woman befriended him and opened his eyes to the opportunities presented in this country. From that point his views of life changed and he not only graSped the opportunities, but pointed them out to others. He never forgot the kindly advice of his youth, and in later years, when the life of the woman's son was in danger. he stopped in the middle of hot political campaign to save the life of the boy accused of murder.
 Around this incident the author has written an interesting story bringing it up to date by having an old waiter re- peat the story to young bolshevist, whose radical views are changed. Faithful reproductions of the old scenes and customs of the day add greatly to the entertainment value.
 Remember Lloyd (Ham) Hamilton of the Ham and Bud comedies2 Well, he'll be seen 4n "A Twilight Baby a Henry Lehrman comedy production declared to be one Of the funniest shows ever shown on the Columbia theater screen, today and tomorrow.
 It has required a little over six months for MT. Lehrman to produce this comedy which is his first of a series for the First National Exhibit ors' circuit. This is Hams first ap- pearance in nearly a year.
