UT of the stirring glory of Kipling's seething world of battle they roar — red -blood and gun -smoke heroes all! . . . The stalwart, loyal, swaggering Sergeants Three . . . Rash and reckless battalioneers, who'd rather fight than find the lips they're always seeking ! . . . Like towering giants astride the bristling hills that hide the bandit hordes of India . . . Headlong through the terrors of the Temples of Tantrapur . . . Onward pushing the thin red line of Empire through a land the white man rules, but never conquers ! . . . It's big ! It's grand!.. . . It's glorious! . . . No wonder it was more than a year in the making . .. . No wonder it taxed all Hollywood's resources to give the screen a scope and a sweep and an emotional blaze that it never has had before ! . . . DON'T LET ANYTHING KEEP YOU FROM SEEING IT!
