PASSION PLAY COM ING TO STAR THEATRE The people of Broken Bow and vicinity on Oct. 11-12-13 and 14 , four nights , will have an oppor tunity of seeing the great sacred drama "The Passion Play" at the Star Theatre. This great religious play is one of the wonders of the age , yet only of recent years has it been known to the world at large. A word as to its origin and pur pose is as follows : Nearly 250 years ago , a severe plague broke out in the villages and valleys of the Bavarian Tyrol in Germany , and indeed , nearly all the larger towns and cities were effected by it , and many people died from its dread ravages. The little secluded village of Ober-Atnmcrgau was fortunate in escaping from the plague and adopted measures of protection , preventing people from the pla gue stricken regions to enter the village. In spite of their best precautions one man came into the village aud spread the pla gue , forty people dying cf tie disease within a short time. In their agony and terror the good pious people of Ober-Ain- inergau decided to make a vow , cr sacrifice to propitate High heaven to save them from the plague. At a solemn meeting of the people of the town it was decided to give a play , setting forth the life and death of Jesus Chris' ' , and to repeat the play every ten years. This vow has been most religiously kept ever since. The play has attracted the attention of the world to this quaint little German village and is visited annually by thousands. Over 700 of its 1200 inhabitants take part in this play and the actors are trained for their respective parts from youth to manhood. The play is a remarkale illustration of the life and career of Jesus Christ and the story of the cross , show ing the birth of Christ , the flight into Egypt , miracles performed , last supper , Judas betrayed , healing the sick , Christ before Pialate. the long weary road to the Crucifixion. Over two miles of moving1 pictures of this wonderful erful play. An explanatory lec ture will be given at each per formance and the pictures natur al as life will be given at the Star Theatre on Oct. 11-12-1344. Admission 15c and 10c. Don't miss seeing this great religious play as it is a beautiful object lesaion to all mankind ,
