Griffith's colossal spectacle "Intolerance , will come to the Grand Opera at Salem next Sunday and Mon day, July 1 ond 2. This amazing production is said to be more than the world s greatest photoplay; in every way it is the biggest art-work of any description ever created. In comparison with those girantic structures reared by Mr. Griffith in his resusitation of Ancient Babylon, the mighty walls, the temple of Bel, and the gorgeous palace of Belshaxzar, the most imposing structures of New York or any other modern city seem unimportant Unparalleled in battle scenes is the ferocious and thrilling attack upon Babylon by the great Cyrus and his hordes of mail-clad warriors. In this producfion D. W. Grif fith tells four seperate, complete and human stories, no one re lated to the other, yet all alike in purpose, that of showing us con vincingly the evils of intolerance. Babvlon. Judea, Old Paris and an American City of the present are the scenes of the stories.
