"Civilization" is Attraction Shortly'


Thomas Ince's Big Spectacle Will Open Three Day Engagement At Orpheum Wednesday.


Bisbeeites will be given a treat beginning Wednesday, for "Civilization" Thomas H. Ince's million dollar photo-play production will be the offering. It will play at the Orpheum theatre.

Thomas H. Ince has declared that "Civilization" is his greatest effort. Ince has created some of the biggest feature productions. But his latest is his crowning effort. More than one year was taken in making the film and the cast consisted of over 40,000 people. Everything was done on an immense scale. Yet in spite of the fact that the piece is a tremendous production, Ince believes it will attract rather because of the message it carries to mankind, the spectacular features being incidental. The master film builder has dedicated the multiple reel creation to the mothers of the dead.

It would seem to be the part of wisdom for those intending to see "Civilization" to make reservations as early as possible.
