the scenes of the old South shown in
this picture consisted of eleven hum
dI ed horses, and hundreds of cows,
pigs, mules, oxen, and dogs, besides

three thousand inhabitants, would
have the privilege of seeing this

eral release date.

atre, although located in a town Of
only two thousand population, decid-
ed to go to bat for its patrons. A
representative of this theatre was
sent to New York and Interviewed

til after the third day and several
communications with Charles r.

come forth clearing the way for peo-
pie of the smaller communities to
see this picture at the same time it
is playing in the cities.

this popular dheatre holds the dis
tinctiOn of not cnly being the first
small community theatre TO play

ly responsible for early shOwings in
