DURBOROUGH PICTURES AT REX WEDNESDAY

See Battling and Battered Europe at Close Range—Nine Reels of Marvelous Pictures. Battling and battered Europe—as the camera saw it in the eastern and Western theatres of war will be presented at the Rex Theatre under the supervision of The Republican Wednesday afternoon and evening, May 3. Wilbur H. Durborough shows there some of the scenes he witnessed in East Prussia and Poland while accompanying Gen. Von Hindenburg on his nistorkal drive against tne Russians. Mr. Durborough recites his experience of the armies and is seen throughout the pictore in the many positions he himself was placed in during his experience with the German army. One of the startling events pictured is a terrific charge of infantry againsi Fort 'Novo Georgievsk, the camera vision covering about two miles of ground and registering the action of the soldiers as they charge in sections, also depicting the soldiers in the trenches, showing a detachment of French soldiers drawing the fire of the Germans on the open field. The attacking force can be plainly seenbehind a clump of bushes, while the exploding shells from the enemy’s guns are clearly visible. A vast expanse of country faintly showing the irregular lines of trenches gives evidences of the tremendous activity in the dug-outs. See these pictures tomorrow at the 3 o’clock matinee or in the evening at the Rex Theatre.
