C., Industrial News has the following to say of “The Holy City,” which played in that city Friday night and which will be shown here tonight: “The momentous and stirring scenes preceding and following the tragedy of Calvary were depicted in a strong, impressive and admirable manner in the play of ‘The Holy City’ at the Grand last night. "The scriptural story as recorded by the evangelists is closely follow ed. except that there is no Impersona tion of Christ, and Interwoven in the narrative is a t bread of romance deal ing with the love of Sajome, daughter I of Herodias, for Marius, a young ; Roman, the love story reaching its ' climax when Salome by mistake kills j Marius for Andrew, and, accepting the Christian faith, stabs herself and | falls lifeless upon the body of Marius, | who had also accepted that faith. “Presented In the play are the i characters of Caiphas. Pontius, Pilate, ' Herod. Herodias. Salome, John the ■ Baptist, Peter, Andrew. Nlcodemus, I Judas, Iscariot, Elizabeth, mother of John, and Mary Magdalene. Among the scenes portrayed are the dance i of Salome, the head of John the Bap- | tist on a charge, the stoning of Mary Magdalene, the purchase of Judas with thirty pieces of silver, the con demnation of Jesus, etc. The cruci fixion was shown In a picture, after j Michael Angelo’s masterpiece. “The resurrection and flight of the angels were also represented*, bv a picture. The curtain falls In the last act while the song of ‘The Holy City* Is being rendered behind the scenes. “It may readily be imagined that the play is a difficult one, anu cabs for histrionic talent of high order. An all-star cast, find in it no easy task. The well-balanced company of last night presented splendid .york In its efforts, and its merit deserved a larger audience. Entitled to special mention are J. H. WSUIams, as An drew, whose work wag superb; I,. D- Kirk, as Pontius Pilate; Clay Cle ment. Jr., as Marius; John E. Puorak, as John the Baptist, and Miss Pauline A. Harlce. as Salome. “The stage settings wero very ef fective and the costumes true to t^ period. As a historic and religious play, ‘The Holy City* Is deserving of high rank, and should prove effective In Impressing the solemn truths In volved In the narrative.” Vlctor’g *and. Slg. Calfattv Victor and his Royal Venetian Band will be at the Star Theatre next Saturday night.

A BASIS FOR CREDIT Before a business man can borrow money he must establish a credit. The' people who make the loan must have confidence in the borrower to start with and then adequate securety. If the borrower, through continued de posits, has become known to the officers of the bank, he has established a basis of credit, which makes it an easy matter to secure any reasonable at ^ commodation. All business men require the aid of outside capital at times. Some day you will need to borrow to close some advantageous purchase Begin to establish your credit now by opening a bank account and keeping it growing. One dollar will open an accouut. We pay 4 per cent, inter est on Savings and Time Deposits. ^ OFFICERS. C. M. Smith, President. A. N. Wood, Vice-President. R. S. Lipscomb, Cashier. A. Lotus Wood, Asst. Cashier.
