PETERS

and an all star cast of the most popular actors
Here is a picture for! You have never seen such a story as this adaptation. It towers over anything of its kind; it is the humanity, the reality, the crashing smashing drams of eternal romance, vivifled to the highest degree.
There are three tense pitches of climax which gives this picture its rugged strength........the ultimate climax reveals a huge colorful forest fire, the like of which has never been seen before.
WHAT MAKES THIS PICTURE GREAT?
It is excellently directed the story is simplicity itself the back- grounds are vital and vivid, and finally the acting is excellent.
