INTERESTING RUSSIAN
PLAY TO BE STAGED
AT EMPRESS TONIGHT
An interesting feature in connec
tion with the big Russian historical
picture, “The Fall of the Romanoffs,”
playing at the Empress theater to
night, is the fact that the Russian
monk Iliodor assisted in the direction
and personally plays his own part.
Iliodor was the closest „ confidant
and tutor of the infamous Rasputin.
As he discovered the true character
of the importor, he quarreled with
him and had to flee from Russia to
save his life.
He consented to play in the Brenon
production and to supervise its de
tails, feeling that he would in this
way create a permanent record of a
part of Russia’s vital history.

FORM THE
HABIT
ATTEND CHURCH
Why? is the question asked by the
non-churchgoer. He who neglects his
church is charging his life with an
irreparable loss and is robbing his
community of a noble example, and is
acting contrary to the principles and
commands of God's word. The
church member who refuses to attend
church because of some selfish whim
is committing moral and spiritual sui
cide, and must answer for this crime
at the judgment bar of God, as well
as in his life. John Wanamaker an
swered this question by saying: “I
would be very miserable without this
spiritual uplift that comes from at
tending Divine worship and obeying
the Divine ordinances. It is a privi
lege to touch soldiers with earnest
Christian men who are interested in
promoting Christ’s kingdom on earth.”
Don’t be a “slacker” in God’s army.
Begin next Sunday to attend regu
larly. Helpful sermons, good music
and a cordial welcome await you at
