COMING COLONIAL ATTRACIiONS
“Everywoman” Sure to Draw a Great
House in Christmas Week.--“When
Dreams Comes True” Coming Soon.
--“Birth of a Nation” in January.
The house will not be “dark” all
through the holiday week. On Thurs
day night of the Christmas week,
Dec. 30th, there is (booked a produc
tion which is sure to draw one of the
largest houses that has ever witness
ed an attraction at the Colonial—
“Everywoman."’
Early In January “When Dreams
Come True” will appear—on the 6th.
©till later “The Birth of a Nation”
is to be seen on the Colonial screen.
This picture has created the greatest
sensation of the movie-age. Several
Athenians have seen it—some paying
large prices to see it in New York;
several have seen it the past week
in Atlanta; all unite in saying: “By
all means go to see it if you never see
another motion picture drama—in
every respect it is the greatest pro
duction ever put on -by the film com
panies.” It is rare that a motion pic
ture attracts! editorial attention—
but the “Birth of a Nation” has been
handled by the most thoughtful editors
from one end of the country to the
other. It is worth the price.

spectacle, “Everywoman,” to this city
where it will be offered at the Co

This is the only company produc
ing “Everywoman” in America, just
as it was the only company present
ing “Everywoman” in America last
season. The company is just as near
ly the same as it was possible for the
managerial skill to make it. In a
company requiring thirty-seven speak
ing characters it is next to impossi
ble to keep exactly the same cast
from season to season. Actors are
only 'human; they die, change their
professions, advance, retrograde, like
other human beings- Yet as near as
possible the cast' of "Everywoman”
is the same this year as it was last
year, and the same last year as It
was a year before. Some of the orig
inal creators of the various roles are
still playing the characters and have
done so since the opening perform

equipment is just as elaborate and
In every way an exact duplicate of

LIVING MODELS FEATURE

“WHEN DREAMS COME TRUE."
Thousands of dollars’ worth of
women’s gowns, cloaks, coats and
hats were displayed on* living models
ta the rooms of the Orange Costume
Company recently. The exhibition
was strictly by invitation to the so
ciety matrons and maids of Nefw York
—and there wasn’t a man present.
Men were barred, as those who ac
companied their .wives and sweet
hearts to the exhibition found out to
their chagrin and sorrow. The liv
ing models, thirty in number, were
from the cast and chorus of ’When
Dreams Come True,” and the cos
tumes exhibited were those to be
worn by the ladles in the production
of “When Dreams Come True.”
Tea gowns, ballroom gowns, street
gowns, debutante gowns, school girt
gowns and Just gowns were displayed.

“Despite the thousands of words
that have been written about this pro

picture, no words thus far have serv

picture itself, it is INOT a production
that one can pay full and just tribute
to in words—it MU/ST be seen to be
appreciated and understood.
“Th6 Georgian is not given, as a
rule, to noticing matters of this sort
editorially, but this picture is most
extraordinary and altogether unusual.
We have no hesitancy in saying that
those who do not avail themselves of

themselves a positive injustice. It

ANNOUNCEMENT—SOLICITOR
GENERAL.
To the White Citizens of the West*
ren Circuit: I desire to let the white
citizens of this circuit know that I
will appreciate their help, influence
and votes for re-election as Solicitor-
General.
It has been my ambition to serve
you in a manner that would meet with
your approval. I have given my time
and attention (day and night) to the
duties of the office, and if you should
see fit to honor me with another term,
It shall be my poliev to continue to
try to suppress crime in all of its
forms.
The security of the home, the pro
tection of property, and the safe
guarding ot the citizens liberty, de
pend upon the enforcement ot the
law, and a respect for the Court’s de
crees and sentences, by those in au
thority, as well as by private citizens.
TEeT Solfcitor-General, in a large
measure, is the officer upon whom our
people rely to insure this protection.
This being my first term in office
and in public life, I have, no doubt,
made mistakes; they were due, how
ever, to “an error of the head and
not of the heart.” I therefore feel
and believe that my experience and
acquaintance with the people have
equipped me for better service and
more usefulness for another term
than I have been able to render dur
ing the past three years.
In the light ot the kind expres
sions from the Grand Juries under
whom 1 have been permitted to serve,
and from the people generally,I be
lieve it is the will of the God-fearing
and law-abiding white citizens, that
I should be re-elected and given am
Indorsement.
As stated in my race before yoi*
saw fit to elect me,—(“If I give satis
faction and you see fit to re-elect me,
and I deem it. to my interest, we wll>
keep company”; so, if in your judg
ment, my public service has been sat
isfactory, I will ask you to give me
another term as an indorsement of
my efforts to measure up to the r*
sponsibillties of the office.
In order to keep up with the work
of the Solicitor-General's office, It
practicallly lakes one’s entire time.
We are holding Court from ten to
eleven months in the year, and when
not actually engaged in the Court
house, my time is given to the prep
aration of cases. As you well know,
I have attended committal trials and
inquests and made personal examina
tion of witnesses, in order 'to hava
my cases ready for trial. I will, there
fore, have very little time, if any, to
call upon the people in person and
ask them for their votes. In view of
this fact, I earnestly request you to
look after my interest on the outside,
while I am on the inside, fighting for
your welfare and protection.
Thanking you for your past sup
port, and trusting that" I may he
deemed worthy of your suffrage, and
that you will honor me with a, second
term, I am,
Yours- for service,
JOHN R. GAMBLE.
