“BATTLE CRY OF PEACE”
WONDERFUL TEACHER
—<» -
The Empress theater is deserving
of compliment upon securing for the
people of Seward such a film as ‘‘The
Rattle Cry of Peace.” It was the un
animous opinion of all who witnessed
the production last night that it is the
greatest feature that was ever shown
in Seward. The lessons and facts
portrayed are vital to our existence
as a nation and during the present
war crisis no picture could have been
more timely.

Nearly all deaths from electricity
