the none of the nations can afford to have
any one European nation dominant.
_ in territory or commercial supremacy.
~ ; That is exactly what the war is for—
; to maintain the equilibrium of the
i first class nations; to keep them all
of about the same power and prestige.
The entrance of Italy into the war,
too, would seem to isolate Germany
and Austria-Hungary more and more,1
! for much of the foreign supplies for
those countries were reaching them
through Italy. Of course, an embargo
on all such transfers will now be put
on by Italy. More and more, the Ger-
man empire and its ally must rely
upon themselves, upon the resources
of their own countries, for subsistence.

MP AkIDi A surpasses human beliei I ing happens except
ll/lflllll/l resurrection and ascension and that could he easily pictured by
UilLlllli'i the almost omnipotent artistic privileges and qualities of the
moving picture with chant. D'Annunzio is in his element. He rides bareback and dumb
over the mighty bulwarks of antiquity, striding the savage brutalities, the superstitions,
the magnificent man-beast chances, like giant upon a leviathan. Sometimes he does such
extravagant things that he is amusing. One sits breathles and wondering what on earth
o;' under the seas or in the air more can this poet of degeneracy do and do with such su-
perb masculinity and truth? "CABIRIA" all told is only the tossing about of a beautiful
little child from one catapult of human fanaticism and power to another; from one mir-
acle of divine revelation to another; from one upheaval of nature in revolt to another. The
child is merely a feather in a perfect uproar of tumbling steeples and walls, spouting
volcanoes, roaring fires, angry gods, slave mastodons and mighty ieats of strength, bat-
tling with waves, overcoming''gigantic obstructions, fighting mobs, tearing down dynas-
ties, climbing, bursting bonds, falling, rising, attacking danger without a qualm.—Amy
Leslie in The Chicago Daily News.
"An overwhelming combination of startling surprises."—N. Y. American.
"Unquestionably the world's biggest picture."—The Green Book.
"More than the last word."—Channing Pollock.
M \NAGER'S NOTE: "Cabiria" will be shown at both theatres Tuesday and Wednes-
' day, with matinees both days at the University Theatre at 3:00
p m The entire 12 reels will be shown each night at the University Theatre but at the
Orpheum Theatre the show will be divided into two parts, that is the first six reels will be
shown Tuesday night and the last six reels will be shown Wednesday night. This is done
on account of the extreme length of the picture and so that those who do not care to sit
through 12 reels of motion pictures can see it in two parts and then for those who wish to
see it all at once, they can do so by attending the University Theatre.
Admission prices at the Orpheum will be 5c and loc, to see halt of it, while at the
University Theatre the admission will be 10c and 2.>c.
