tn Story Book Land, a musical
Z Will be presented in
uL.p Friday night, Feb.
inbridge Friday night
a at the Callahan theatre by
,Lo\ talent includiag the best
tamable in town. The pro-
etion will be given under the
snices of the Ladies Guild of
st John’s Episcopal Church,
d the ladies are promising the
st local play ever attempted
„ Mr. J. L. Francis repre-
nting the John B. Rodgers
oducing Company arrived in
city two weeks ago to take
-ge of the rehearsing and
staging of the play and a
•al committee headed by Mrs.
ate McFarland secured all the
en t a year ago of which there
e 150 and rehearsals have been
dng place with businesslike
pdarity at the school audi-
iUM.
t will be remenlbSfed that
t year '*Fi Fi of the Toy
op" was staged under the
ne auspices, which was a
ty great success, both artisti-
ly and financially. “In Story
ok Land,, is owned and mana-
i by the same firm and staged
th the same methods as used
the staging of “Fi Fi.”
$ere is a skeleton plot runn-
through “In Story Book
id” not . unlike “Peter Pan,"
tome of the other of the well
iwn juvenile comedies. Jean
Allen, two children, dissatis-
. with their home and mother,
hthey were in Story Book
id as pictured by their new
k of the same name. Their
h is granted by Moonbeam
Dream Fairy, who transports
m to the laud of dreams by
aerial route, where they ex-
ience some strange and dis
cing adventures. They find
t the magic wishing-ring be-
ging to the King of Hearts
been stolen and the Knave of
irts, the King’s son, is sus-
ted. While they are explor-
the Garden of Mary, Quite
drary, the ring is mysterious-
oed into Alien’s pocket, who
ledtately sells it to Simple
Simon, for Geraldine, his pet
mule. The children are subject
to many adventures of this kind,
before they are finally allowed
to return home, which they de
cide is the best place and mother
their best friend after all.
‘ ‘In Story-Book Land., abounds
in catchy music, screamingly
funny comedy situations beauti
ful dances and ballets, and dazzl
ing costumes. Those who have
attended rehearsals have laugh
ed at Mis. and Mr. Spratt, a
hen-pecked husband and his
wife and Simple Simon and Mar
jorie Daw, whose love making is
unique, to say the least, and
Geraldine, the mule whose antics
never fail to amuse even the
performers themselves;and
wondered at the beatiful duets,
solos, and quartettes of Tom, the
Pipers son, Mary, Quite Con
trary, Knave of Hearts and Bo-
Peep, who has lost her sheep.
The choruses and aesthetic
dances are in a class by them
selves, the singing of the Poppies
and Gardeners and the dances
of the Nymphs and Roses, Follies
Sufferagettes and Society Girls
are especially entertaining.
The local committee of the
Ladies Guild has been unusally
fortunate in securing the best
talent in Bainbridge tor the lead
ing roles, some of the most
popular and entertaining people
available appearing in all parts
ot the production, while the
participants of the dances are
the girls of the younger set who
have'time and again demonstrat
ed their ability in this line.
The play is given for a worthy
object and it is hoped the people
of Baihbridge will co-operate in
making this occasion the biggest
and best attended thing of its
kind ever given in this locality,

No Need To Seek Alar. The Evidence
Is at Your Own door.
No need to leave Bainbridge
to hunt up proof, because you
have ir here at home. The
straightforward statement of a
Bainbridge resident like that
given below, bears an interest
for every man, woman or child
here in Bainbridge.
G. P. Cliett, Bainbridge, says;
“I was almost down and out with
kidney trouble. My back had be
come so lame and sore that I
could scarcely move about. I
was so helpless that I couldn’t
bend or straighten my back or
lift my arm to my head. It took
in all about six boxes of Doan’s
Kidney Pills to rid me of the
trouble and I haven’t suffered a
bit sines.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy
—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the
same that Mr. Cliett had.
