EXCITEMENT AND LAUGHTER

Double Feature Bill at West-
holme Tonight

The strongest feature bill
ever shown at the Westholme
will open there tonight, the first
being a five-reel was feature,
“The Battle of Gettysburg,” and
the second a_ two-reel Keystone
omedy, “Zuzu the Band Leader.”
Both pictures are absolutely
great and either one is worth the
price of admission alone. Owing

to the great length of the pro-
gram, which runs _ fully two
hours, the first performance
starts promptly at 7:15 and the
second at 9:15. The manage-
ment guarantees you your

money's worth at tonight's show.
