THOUSANDS SAW THIS PICTURE LAST NIGHT THE MOST TALKED OF FILM EVER SHOWN thhie iifjsiiidie; oif Tunis wnnnTE sil a vie tr aifjfikd " By Samuel H. London, the Noted International Investigator, Consulted by John G. Rockefeller, Jr., in His Effort toSolve the White Slave Problem.

In looking at "The Inside of the White Slave Traffic" films I was most deeply impressed by the misery, the utter helplessness of the girl who Is once "lost," and by the ruthless powe r of the business organization which profits by her loss. CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN. t First Time Shown in Richmond

It struck me aa being one of the most forcible and intelligent ways of putting this terrible problem before the public, and it is handled in the most Judicious manner. I went rather prejudiced against, and came way convinced of its usefulness. MRS. WILLIAM K. VANDERBILT, Sr. Fully half-of the girls committed here would now be happy In their own homes, If your warning to parents was seen by all the mothers and fathers whose daughters had erred. Dr. E. HELEN KNIGHT, Physiclan-in-Charge of the New York Magdalen Home. I consider the presentation of "The Inside of the White Slave Traffic" a public benefaction and so vastly superior to all other pictures of its kind that there is no comparison. ELLA WHEELER WILCOX. These pictures reveal facts which it is important should be known to the general public, and in a way which even the most sensitive person could find no sound objection. REV. JOHN HAYES HOLMES, Pastor of Church of the Messiah. There is not an immodest picture in the whole of the five acts. There Is not the remotest suggestion of Indecency. It offers a tremendous warning to young people especially young girls. REV. CHARLES F. AKED, D. D. LL. D. - t In preeenting to the Richmond public this greatest of White Slave Traffic Pictures, the management desires to impress on the minds of the Murray theatre patrons the fact that nothing like this picture has ever been exhibited. It is truth, all truth, and nothing but the truth, and has won the unanimous endorsement of ministers, social workers and the public from coast to coast. A picture with a message and a meaning. A picture with a mission. A picture whose startling realism drives home with terrific force a condition of our country that every man, woman and - child should know

about. Remember you will
