OTAKI THEATRE.
THURSDAY NIGHT. “CONFLICT.” A rushing, roaring sweep of resistless waters released from bondage—a rnigh- j ty torrent of timber crushing, grinding j all before it—logs bumping, splintering I in tbe snarling waters—sweeping all . before its relentless path. Such is one j of the big tbrills in “Conflict.” ' The most gripping, soul-searing moment ever filmed. Terrific in its intensity, the mighty log jam, the blowiag > up of the dam, and the swashing tor- ■ rent of felled forest is the mightiest J spectacle of the camera’s art. In all its splendour, in all its ruthless | glory, “Conflict,” Priscilla Dean’s wonderful new Universal-Jewel, will come to the theatre next Thursday, vividlv records the actual dynamiting of a huge dam. and the breaking loose of hundreds of thousands of the pris- j oned logs. . The beauty of the photography and I the magnificent scenery of the Canadi- i an North Wbods country is unsurpas- J sed. i An entire logging camp, running at full blast with all its men, was requisitioned by Stuart Paton in the direction of this marvellous picture. See it on Thursday.
