“VIA WIRELESS’* IS
SUNDAY FEATURE
The 5-reel Pathe Gold Rooster feature
film, “Via \'.'ireles«," which boohed
for the Sunday show at the Coliseum
is without doubt the most spectacular
picture which has ever l'cen offered to
the people of Nenana. The story is full
> f intrigue, hatred, plot and counter-plot
with a delightful thread of a love story
interwoven, and the action shows most
graphically the methods employed in the
; manufacture of the large caliber guns
which defend our shores, as well as a
practical demonstration of the use of
wireless telegraphy in calling for aid in
times of distress at sea. The usual feat
ure prices, four and six bits, will prevail.
