LAST CHANCE
TO SEE FILM
MASTERPIECE
"Intolerance" will he shown tonight
for tile Inst time, positively, in Cor
dova The company is compelled to
leavc unexpectedly for the Outside,
which only allows the appearance of
one of the pictures.
"Intolerance" deals with four dif
ferent periods of the world's history,
and the four stories depicting this run
concurrently. First are the events
leading up to and including the fall
of Babylon; then we have the events
leading up to and including the cru
cifixion of Christ; the third story
deals with France in the days of
Catherine de Medici, and a modern
story completes the series of paral
lels intended by the producer.
No picture has ever approached the
magnificence of this spectacle, and It
is doubtful if another of the same
| caliber will ever be attempted
The entire original musical score
will be played. The prices will be
ns usual. $1; children. SO cents This
will be the last opportunity to see
this picture.
