BREED THEATRE,

Massive scenes, the pomp and eere-
nony of days gone by, sensational cha
riot races, dancing girls at the Feast of.
Belshazzar, all are a part of David
Wark Griffiths tremendous production
The Fall of Babylon, which is the at
traction at the Breed theatre today. The
Fall of Babylon is q simple love story
against background of colossal scenes
Of grandeur wherein slave dealers,
knaves, soldiers. court beauties and la
dies Of the harem become the contrast
ing elements. The smoke of battle and
the thunder of giant turrets pause 10
reveal glirlpses of those fragile beauties
who lent life and joy 10 the court Doves
bearing Cupid's messages fit about the
great hills and banquet rooms of Bel
shazzar's palace. The Fail of Babylon
undoubtedly shows Griffith at his best
for it has given this wizard of the drama
an opportunity to express that peculiar
genius so wildly revealed in all his past
super-pictures. where in prodigious,
throbbing scenes Of grandeur are made
but the background for the unfolding of
a love story of tender appeal and charm
ing simplicity. A special musical ac-
compartment has been provided for the
further enjoyment of the production
The Pathe News and a Christie comedy
make up the remainder of the bill.

population of 800. Perhaps no other sec
ton Of the United States is so far iso-
lated from the railroads and from all
year traffic. The nearest railway sta
ton is IS miles away, and from Novem-
Der until May the highway to that sta
ton is virtually impossible. Surrounded
by the high mountains in the range south
of Yellowstone National Park, the resi-
dents of Jackson make little or no at
tempts to travel during the winter
months.
1t was in Jackson's Hole that the bad
men made their last stand against the
advancing Nave of civilization 80 or 40
years ago. There they fiocked after
Stealing cattle or horses or other rob-
berries or hold-ups and banded them
selves together for mutual protection.
Today Jackson. itself, has surrendered
TO the feminist movement and made a
clean sweep of every male Office holder.
The only explanation thus far given for
the oserturn comes from tine editor of
The Courier, the citys sole newspaper,
who says in his paper: 1T is thought
the novelty of being the first city on rec
ord to be governed entirely by women
helped them to secure such a complete
victory" The editor who was, himself, a
candidate, accepts the results without re-
pining but says the women surprised
even themselves by the result
There was no unusual campaigning
no special issue at stake, nor was there
an unusually heavy vote. Mrs Miller
defeated Fred Lovejoy for mayor by a
vote of S. to 2S.. Four women were
elected members of the city council over
four men candidates by about the same
relative vote.
