D arrow Theory To Appear Holly Bill Of more than usual Interest to local theatre goers Is the announce ment made by John Nledermeyer. manager of the Holly theatre that Wednesday the Holly will present "The Mystery of Life." Never has there been a picture like this one and probably there will never be an other like It.

A story that has taken one mil lion years to write la brought to the screen In one hour and a half.

We feel that the citizens of Medford and southern Oregon will be interested In seeing this picture for Just what It Is a discussion of Par row's theory by Darrow himself." The picture contains some very interest ing material such as herds of sea elephants, fish that live inside other fish, bats with legs but cannot walk, birds that swim but cannot fly. ants that are socialists and hundreds of other Interesting things. The pic ture will be at the Holly for one day only, Wednesday, May 35.
