' Griffith's stupendous raotirm picture production, which had ?rer a one rear run at the Liberty Theatre in New York City, will be pre::ented in Marion, S. C., again this season, on December fourth and fifth, with a symphony orchestra of twenty-musicians, together with a car load of special scenery and electrical effects, the music has been arranged by Victor Herbert. The "Birth of a Nation" I Company carries their o^n moving picture machines, machine operators, and musical directors. Due to the fact that the motion picture house in Marion has not enough seating capacity to attempt a proposition such as the "Birth of A Nation" it has arranged to produce this attraction at the school Auditorium, with the full orchestra. Watch the columns of this paper for the date which the advance sale of tickets begins on. adv. | GMASSTAice I FOR Y. M.
