"HEARTS OF THE WORLD."
"Hearts of the World," the sup-
reme ,triumph of D. W. Griffith, to
be presented at the town hall, Clin-
ton, Friday evening, Dec. 13th, . in-
augurates a new era in the realm of
screen drama. Here, with the great
war as a background, Mr. Griffith
has filmed a'sintple little love story,
old as the ages yet ever new.
"Hearts of the World" has proven
in the
screen
the latest sensation
world. Mt, Griffith realized, that tete
public which became enthusiastic ov-
er "The Birth,of a Nation" and "In-
tolerance" would expect something.
big froth huff in this latest picture,
and therefore instead of trying, to
out -do himself to staging gigantic
battle scenes, heused the 'Great
War only as a background for the
filming of a simple and attractive
story of ..tremendous human interest.
°Hearts of the World" shows the
happy, peaceful life of the people of
a small village before the grim hor-
ror War reared its ugly head over
the horizon, The causes that led up
to the was are shown ; the meeting
of the English Parliament on the'
eventful night. when the vote was
cast for war ; the session of the
French Senate voting upon the De-
claration of War ; the,session of the
cabinet awaiting the fatal hour when
the ultimatum to Germany would
expire. These scenes, come as a pre-
lude ; then the great drama begins
when ;due German hordes enter
France,
In taking the battle pictures for
"hearts of the World,?' Mr, Griffith
had the assistance and co-operation
of the British War Office, It is the
opinion of all who have seen "Hearts
of the World" that Mr.. Griffith has
out done his own best achievements
and has established a new artistic
record which it will take years and
years for someone else to equal, if
indeed such a thing is possible.
This niainmoth spectacle is being
shotvti Imre under the attspiees Girls'
Patriotic Auxiliary. Seats now on
sale at b'al't's Bookstore.
