The entrance of Jesus into the
city of Jerusalem was one OF
the most momentous and dra-
matte events of history.
Jerusalem was the religious
capital of the Jewish people.
The city was additionally assoc
ciated with the worship Of Je
hova But Christ repeatedly re-
buked the priests and Pharlsees
for their insistence on the 1or-
malities Of religion.
The opposition to the Master
centered in Jerusalem. The city
was the citadel Of His enemies
In Galilee the common people
heard him gladly, and great
throngs followed Him, eager to
benefit by his teachings.
The Master determined to go
to the City Of David despite the
awoved intention of His enemies
to put Him to death. His dec

prediction of His death.
The Master believed His
ministry would not be complete
without a final challenge to the
ecclesiastical corruption of tht
city. Despite the warnings o.
His disciples, He carried out HIS
purpose.
The priests had become alarmed
at the popularity of the Master
and were determined to bring
about His downfall Their coun.
ell expressed the opinion thai
"if we let Him thus alone, al
men will believe on Him"
Christ, in approaching the
city, came to Bethphage anc

COLJrMBIA-"The Patriot"

Although the past achievements Of
Emil Jannings and Ernest Lubltsch as
actor and director, respectively, have
been such as to entitle them to undis-
puted places in the hall of fame of
moviedom, each seems to have eclipsed
himself in 1.-The Patriot" the feature
picture on this weeks bill at Loew's
Columbia Theater.
The photopiay is based on the play
with the same name by Alfred Neu-
mann It was produced in Berlin with
marked success and last Winter was
brought to New York, where an elab-
crate production of it died speedy
death. despite the excellent work of
a we'll chosen cast headed by Lyn
Harding. That Lubitsch should take
a chance with a story which proved a
financial failure on the American stage
and turn it into a success as a film
is the greater tribute to him.
Although billed as ''historical' pic
ture, 1.-THE Patriot" does not adhere
very rigidly to. historical facts. The
mystery and intrigue surrounding the
death of Gar Alexander in 1901 have
never been cleared up, and rather than
present established facts, 1.-THE Patriot"
gives Neumann's conjecture of what
may have been the facts, just as 1.-THE
Road to Rome" was a conjecture Of
what may have happened to Hannibal
when he was at the gates of Rome.
The plot, tersely told, is that Count
Pahlen, minister of war, believes the
insane Gear must be killed as the only
way of saving Russia from ruin. AL
though he is the one man in Russia
whom the Gear trusts, he carries out
the regicide with elaborate ramifica-
lions, places the Cars son Alexander
on the throne and then, having saved
Russia by betraying the Gar, commits
suicide by ordering his servant to shoot
him.
The facts of the case are that Count
Pahlen was not minister of war, but
military governor of st. Petersburg. In
dications are that he was not so much
in love with Russia as he was anxious
to further his own ambitions. Whether
or not he was the leading spirit in the
movement against the mad Car is still
a matter of conjecture.
AS Paul, the microphile who spent
more time counting the buttons on
his guardsmen's uniforms than attend
ing to matters of state, Jannings is
excellent. It is safe to say that no
man in Hollywood could play the role
of this imperial lunatic as well as he.
