WORLD

A MASTERPIECE the sweep of Its mighty charges, its hazards upon which rests not alone the fate of companies, regiments, divisions, whole armies, but of whole nations, and with these, the will of the individual to do and to die, the. sorrow that cornea to men and to women alike, even to children, and, with the horror, the sacrifice and the glowing glory of sacrifice. Griffith is not turning to the past; he is dealing with the living present. Reality has set Itself before his camera, and It Is. far more impressive, more dramatic, more thrilling than anything that fancy could have posed for the cinema. "Into the moving panorama of war, Griffith threads a story. That Is the basic princlpl" 0f his productions. He seeks thereby to phow the effect upon individuals of great evfnts. By these reactions he affords us a means for Judging their vast significance. That was his procedure in 'The Birth of a Nation;' lie followed th same, method In the more abstract 'Intolerance.'"

HOMES WELL SUPPLIED WITH COAL IN WEST The Black Diamond says: "All indications are that householders have been unusually well supplied with coal. There has never been a time when anything like the amount of coal has gone Into household storage In Summer. Broadly speaking, the West Is far better supplied than the East. "Indications are the railroads will use this year approximately 16,000,000 tons of coal. Storage piles are not as extensive as they should be. "More Industries are being converted every day from so-called non-essential work to war work. As this occurs their status as coal users changes instantly to the preferred class."
