THR YOUTH’S COMPANlOl’. St. Paul St., Poston, Mass. New Subscriptions Received at this Office. “THE BIRTH OF A NATION.” I). \Y. Griffith's mighty spectacle “The Birth of a Nation” begin its engagement at the Garland theatre on Wednesday and Thursday. Novem ber S and !>. performances daily at 2:15 and 8:15 p.m.. Nothing like this wonderful attrac tion has ever been seen upon the local boards. It is given here exact ly as it is being presented in New York City where the big drama has broken every record in the stage his tory of the first city in the country, in addition the piece has piled up rec ord engagements in Chicago, Boston. San Francisco and Los Angeles. It covers a wide range of American history and touches only the highest points of interest in the great events that led up to and terminated in the Civil war. The force that slavery | played in producing this crisis is traced from its inception to its aboli tion. While the basic theme is his torical in its foundaton its intent is the fundamental one of true drama. The forces which make for these results have been marshalled upon a larger scale than was ever dreamed of before. Where directors of vast spectacle have dealt with hundreds in the past Griffiith employs thous ands. IS,000 people fill his stage with a vast territory for its back ground. 2.000 horses pass before your view in wild dashes over miles of country roadway. The decisive battles of the Civil War are repro duced in faithful detail and you see these conflicts fought again just as they were waged 50 years ago. Cit ies were built up only to be destroy ed to lend force and merit to the dramatic narrative. One enormous battle field is shown stretchng over an area of 10 square miles and upon these planes and trenches 10.000 sol diers clash in a mimic warfare that is as real as if you were eye witnesses of the actual occurence. Holding the great effects in tether is a story as tender and true as love and ro mance can be pictured. There are tears and smiles, noble sacrfices and heroic deeds of personal valor. Youthful dreams of love's fruition are rent asunder by the demons of war; home ties snap before the call to arms before the call to arms and suffering such as cannot he imag ined is depicted in the crude manner that history is made when men sur render reason to passion and engage in a deadlock of armed resistenee. You see the war started after be ing shown the causes which precipi tated ii. You see the contending sections playing their desperate games of human pawns moved in*o the fields of slaughter. Then comes the agreement for peace and Lin coln sets about his superhuman task of healing the wounds by the appli cation of that great love which made him the towering figure of his age. A fanatic’s bullet stills the heart which beat so evenly for all liumanty. The South is thrown back into a worse fate than war.. Their lands are overrun by a hungry horde of politi cians and grafters. The poor negro is cajoled into a false understanding of liberty and in his ignorance is led into excesses bv these scalawags of fortune. Out of it comes the ghostly' crudsaders of a terrible era to once more set things aright and return the lands and liberties of peace to their rightful owners and over the lands miserere sounds the chorus of bro therly love in an allegorical dream which visions the re union of the di vided sections and the welding of that national spirit which has made this nation so great after its baptism in its own blood. A wonderful score of operatic reaches accompanies the narritive. it is all done upon a most stupendous scale. No detail has been over looked. The drama is outlined and told in the most graphic form that has yet been devised by the brain of man for such purpose. No wonder this work is epoch-making. It has set up new standards which it will be difficult to equal for many a year to come. CHURCH NOTES. Methodist. The Sunday School board and Ep worth League Cabinet met at the par sonage Tuesday evening for a social time and to adopt their part of the evangelistic and social program.

FARMER, JUST HOW MUCH OF V9UR SOFT CORN DID THE DISTILLER BUY? LAST WEEK THE “LEAGUE DOPE” GAVE STA TISTICS TO “PROVE” HOW WOEFUL WOULD HAVE BEEN THE LOSS HAD NOT DISTILLERS BOUGHT NEBRASKA’S SOFT CORN CROP. A former government gauger, long employed in measur ing the output of the Peoria plants, laughs at the story. “In the first place,” he says, “soft corn doesn’t yield enough alcohol to make its use desirable in distilling. In the second place the quality of the alcohol made from it is very poor. And lastly, the slop from soft corn is not good for feeding cattle. All these considerations keep the distillers from using soft corn at all, except when they get some through their buyers.” FURTHERMORE, everyone knows that starch factories offer the best and only markets for soft corn. So you see, Mr. Farmer, the Nebraska brewer can never get your vote by this soft corn line of talk. It lacks argu ment. Vote— Nebraska Dry JUDGE ALBERT J. CORNISH Candidate for Supreme Court Judge Judge Cornish has served 21 years as District Judge at Lincoln. His ability, impartiality and fair-mindedness are proven by five elections to the district bench by his neighbors. Judge Cornish is in the prime of life, alert, vigorous, human, a District Judge with an extraordinary record for decisions ap proved by the Supreme Court. Three judges are to be elected. Judge Cornish’s fitness for Supreme Judge can easily be learned. Ask the lawyers in your community. F. J. SCHOLZ & SON manufacturers of MONUMENTS AND MAUSOLEUMS JACOB RITZ, Rockville, Nebr.
