Because of love a king was deposed
and republic born.

the Storm with Lillian and Dorothy
Gish.
Two orphan sisters, one blind, one
a victim of a nobleman's lust, brought
near by a voice, are thrust apart again
by thiefs greed and a spy's law.
The climacteric moment in story
that runs the gamut OF all human emo
lions.
See the fatal duel in the midst OF a
regal orgy. The love OF the young
aristocrat for the country-bred Hen
riette. The fall of the Bastille. The
Feast of Reason The Reign Of Ter
ror.
D. w Griffith has pictured before
your eyes the mad lawlessness OF an
uprising people-naked girls in foun-
tans of wine-nobs drunk with fury
in the passionate Carmagnole.
By all means see this most daring
and startling production, for thrill fol
lows thrill so fast that you can only
slump in your seat and gasp and never
forget

The way girls act nowadays its hard
to tell if they are all right or not.
Today society approves what used to
be vices. Sobriety and modesty are
extinct-exictement and speed are the
real necessities fife.
Even to the nice people of today,
clothing is merely to be seen through
and food something to be taken be-
tween drinks 1t is the age of jazz
The smart girr' of today removes
her cigaret from her lips only to kiss
and make up.
Is this true of our modern jazz-mad
young people? See this picture that
