POPULAR PLAY
COMING MONDAY
Birth of a Nation Will
Be At The Grand
Theatre

The magnitude of David W. Crit
fth's feat in staging "The Birth of
a Nation" which will appear at the
Grand theatre Monday, afternoon and
evening, is almost appalling-at least
to the devotees of the older forms
of theatrical entertainment. Where
now are the little groups of actors, the
pinchbeck scenery and the petty pre-
perties of the so-called "legitimate'
drama? BY comparison with the new
art, the legitimate" measures to the
mountain like a molanill. Instead of
scenery for his background Griffith
has used Nature. For subject he has
covered $50 years of American life
and hair-raising rides of the Ku Klux
Khan three thousand riders and hor-
ses sweep over Vie dusty reads,
No wonder that this magnificent
historical spectacle is the talk Of the
country. 1t has established an enti,e-
ly new art in the realm Of the theatre
the art of pantomiuic screen spec
tacles with an orchestral score per-
fectly synchronized to the action. It.
has also created a tremendous sensa-
ton because Of its vaster and more
forceful treatment of the theme Of
Thomas Dixon's "The Clansman,"
which both as book and play, created
the greatest Jurors of the last decade.
The great deeds of IRE Civil War
and the horrors Of Reconstruction r
made to live again and the nation re-
born is apothesized. Mr.. Griffith, pio-
neer among directors, managed this
~stupendous achievement without the
aid of dialogue or speech, for motion
pictures with music and effects tell
wildly this thrilling tale Of fifty
years ago.
A complete musical company of
ten persons will aid in presenting the
wonderful picture at the Grand.

can party stands and for which it has
always Stood"

GRAND LIST MAY
SHOW INCREASE
Some Estates and Wilder Farm Live
Stock Lost-Listers Make Appeal
for Remaining Lists.

The listers arc well along in the sorting
of inventories and it is quite evident
there are large number of poll taXpay-
ers and numerous householders and bust
ness men not vet in.
This is unfortunate as the writing of
the grand list book must start at once
and it is very slow work writing in
omissions later on.
The listers will keep open evenings
Wednesday, Saturday and Monday next.
After that Office hours will be s to II
a. m and to p M Will not every
one make an effort to get his inventory
in by Monday night?
1t is the opinion of the listers that the
grand list will be as large as, and possibly
larger than, last year.
The most evident loss is in estates and
the Wilder farm live stock. The largest
single gain is in the list of the Dunham
Brothers Co, which is well over 100000
