Each is magnifjcent drama, exquisitely presented upon the silver sheet. POLI'S—“The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.” “The Four Horsemen of the Apoca- Iypse,” heralded by lauding celebritles as an epoch in the history of the screen, had its presentation here at Poli's last night. It is presumable that the multi- tudinous audience knew, to begin with, just how much the production had cost in raw money and the exact thousands of people shown on the exact miles of film, but, for once, anticipation failed in justice to the awful splendor of the theme.
