Griffith’s spectacle, “The Birth of a Nation,” on its farewell tour begins its engagement at the Rylander Theater next Monday, where it will be presented for four performances on Monday and Tues day, matinees at 3 and nights at j B’ls. It covers a wide range of Am-’r cans history and touches only the highest points of interest in the great events that preceded and j terminated the Civil War. The i force that slavery played in produc-1 ing this crisis is traced from its* inception to its abolition. While the basic theme is historical, 18,- 000 people fill the stage which has a vast territory for its background, 3,000 horses pass before your view j in wild dashes over miles of coun-1 try roadway. The decisive battles of the Civd . War are reproduced in faithful d >-; tail and you see these conflicts: fought again just as they were i waged over 50 years ago. Cities' were built up only to be destroyed ■ to lend force and verity to the dra matic narrative. One enormous battlefield is' shown stretching over an erea of ten square miles an upon these plains and trenches 10,000 soldiers clash in a warfare that is as real as if you were an eye witness of the actual occurrence. Holding the great effects in tether is a story as tender and true as love and ro mance can be pictured. There are tears and smiles, noble sacrifices and heroic deeds of personal vaior. The following wonderful cast will be seen: Henry B. Walthall, Lil lian Gish, Mae, Marsh, Miriam Coop er, Mary ,Alden, Josephine Crowell, Ralph Lewis, Joseph Henabery, Raoul Walsh,,Donald Crisp, Howard Gaye, George Seighmann,’ Walter Long and Elmer Clifton.
