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. HENRY W. SAVAGE’S “EVERYWOMAN” SOON.

Sav age, the (New York producer and man ager,, who is sending the big dramatic spectacle, “Everywoman,” to this city where it will be offered at the Co lonial on December 30ith. 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 ance five years ago. The scenic equipment is just as elaborate and In every way an exact duplicate of that used at the first performance. Everything was made new this sea son. It is fresh and spick and span. Thai costumes) are up-tethesminute. There has been no paring in any of the effects to make it easier to han dle . Mr. Savage would permit noth ing of the kind. You will not see a number two organization playing “Everywoman.” It is the one and the only company in America. The play going public have learned that the name of Henry W. Savage as sponsor of a theatrical or musical attraction Is an absolute guarantee of its worth. LIVING MODELS FEATURE IODEI “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. “When Dreams Come True’’ will seen here at the Colonial on Jan uary 6th, and for the benefit and peace of mind of our. male theatre goers It is announced that men will oot be barred on that occasion. est moving picture ever made or shown anywhere in the world. “Despite the thousands of words that have been written about this pro duction, and despite the fact that At lantans were expecting a truly great picture, no words thus far have serv ed to convey the stupendous magnifi cence and the thrilling appeal of the 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 the opportunity* to see it will be doing themselves a positive injustice. It tells on the screen in a story in sub stance and in form that has neveT been so intelligently and so vividly told before, in any manner whatso ever.” Laughter Aids Digestion.

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. mm
