HIGH LIGHTS IN GRIFFITH'S
"ORPHANS OF THE STORM"

Herewith are given just few OF
the outstanding facts about D. W.
Griffith's picture sensation, Or
phans of the Storm" playing at the
Rylander theater on Wednesday
and Thursday. A perusal of these
facts and figures will give fairly
accurate idea of the magnitude of
the picture, but the real magnifi-
cence and tremendously big aspects
of this Griffith dramatic epic must
be seen properly to be appreciated
These facts will help little to pre-
pare the public for what they are
going to see:
Orphans of the Storm is an
adaptation of that famous old stage
classic, "The Two Orphans
1t was given the title orphans of
the Storm" in order to avoid con-
fusion with other pictures called
"The Two Orphans"
Nearly twelve months were oc-
cupied in working up to, making the
finishing picture, from the first
steps to the finishing touches. Six
months were spent in the actual
making.
Every scene, large or small, was
personally directed by Mr.. Griffith.
Twenty-six tons of properties
were imported from France in order
to faithfully reproduce the scenes
styles and costumes of that time.
Lillian and Dorothy Gish appear
together for the first time since the
Hearts of the World" also
Griffith feature.
Three million feet of lumber
were used in constructing Paris;
800 tons of paving stone were set
in the streets; ninety barrels of
paint were used, and 1000 panes
of glass.
The fountain of wine is an &C
tual reality, done with the permits
sion of the prohibition enforce
ment agent.
