Griffith's film play "The Birth ot a Nation." The stirring action and perfect portraiture ot the picture receiv ed much applause yesterday from the Memorial day audience, the picturization of Civil war events and of the assassination of Presi dent Lincoln with the subsequent reunion of the states being e . ially applicable to the spirit ot the day. Griffith's accomplishment as a master in delineating human emo tion was well exemplified in the scene showing the home coming of the "Little Colonel." Members of the audience were moved to tears by the faultless portrayal ot this one of thousands of similar scenes in the north and so-'h at that time. . Wbodrow Wilson's "History of the Reconstruction" as well as other standard texts were use! by Mr. Griffith In presenting scenes and. epochs of the per-od, 1860-1870. The terrible events growing "t of attempts to place the newly li'-cl-ated slaves on a basis superior to their former owners and pther white citizens in certain portions of the south are treated by Mr. Griffith. These incidents are out lined in Thomas Dixon's book. "The Clansmen." The spontan eous growth of the Ku Klux Klaii and the restoration of peace the affected districts are inter woven with stories -of: romance there being .much, realism as com pared with1 commonly filmed love epics.

Many persons attended the serv ices for Mrs. Crawford who died Sunday morning from burn! re ceived Saturday night when an automobile in which she was sit ting caught fire, the cars's gaso line tank exploding. The mishap occurred while Mr. Crawford was attempting to heat up the clutch of his car with a blow torch. The flames spread to the gasoline tank which was lo cated in front of the forward seat occupied by Mrs. Crawford The force of the explosion wrenched the instrument board and speed omter from their place and tossed them to the rear of the car which was a total loss as a result of the fire. Mr. Crawford had gotten under the car and when the explosion oc curred he -tried frantically to save his wife, sustaining badly burned hands.
