THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER
Many Problems Face Wife in
“The Lonely
Road”
It is seldom that one looks for
a problem in a picture; what we
want we go to the threatre
is entertainment. But when we
find a production that induces
thought, that offers a solution to
a problem that is far too common,
and at the sam time combines
the element of entertainment val
ue, then we have an interesting
picture.
That is said to be the type of
production that is being offered
in Katherine Mas Donald’s latest re
lease, “The Lonely Road,”, playing
at the Rylander Theatre next Wed
nesday. Add to Miss MacDonald’s
own_ beauty and personal charm
the fact that she is supported by
a strong company including Kath
leen Kirkham, William Conklin,
James Neill and Eugene Besserer.
Charles Logue, the author, be
gins his story where one usually
expects stories to end—with mar
riage; and, starting at an unex
pected place, he goes along a
devious and thrilling path.
Katherin. MacDonald plays the
part of the life partner of a man
' who is “too proud to let his wife
earn money” and denies her the
pleasures; and liberties that are
the lot of most women of today.
Se teaches him a lesson that brings
a happy solution to an everyday
problem.
With “The Lonely Road” will be
shown one of those excruciatingly
funny Mermaid comedies,
“Blazes.”

“Penrod and Sam” Brings the
“Orfullest” Kids in
Town
That as thrilling and absorbing
a story can be woven about the
adventures and life of the
typical boy as about
heroic adult figures is demonstrat
ed in “Fenrod and Sam,” coming
to the Rylander Theatre on Thurs- j
wrote “Penrod and Sam.” which is j
day and Friday. Booth Tarkington i
a sequel to his famous Penrod.
Every grown-up treasures mem-1
cries of his or her childhood, and :
are often heard to remark: “Those
were the happy days.” Recollec
tion is kindly, however, and they
forget the trials and tribulations
which accompany the joys of the
juvenile years. And every little
American boy has his sorrow’s, his
troubles and his sappointmenjs
No writer in the world under
—just as his elders have,
stands the boy as Booth Tarking
ton does, and this noted novelist
ha.«i created in Penrod Schofield, a
figure as deathless as w in fic
tion. It is a name that has become
a hous hold word. Penrod is lov
ed because he is a real boy.
And “Penrod and Sam’s has
been transferred to the screen
with the same lifelike fidelity that
characterizes the authors’ stories.
The picture contains no sensation
al cabaret scenes but it does pro
duce laughter, tears, chuckles and
smiles in rapid succession.

New Popular Price Policy
Announced by Mgr. Kincey
Manager Herbert Kincey will in
augurate a nev4 summer poscy at
The Rylander next Monday when
the balcony of that popular play
house will be opened to its patrons
at reduced admission.
These new prices have been d&
termined upon after a careful
analysis of the desires of patrons
of the Rylander, and with the def
inite purpose to make available in
Americus the highest type of pic
tures at lowest possible prices.
A fact not generally known is
that the Rylander auditorium is so
designed as tot make each seat
within its broad expanse practical
ly equi-distant from the center of ;
the stage. This places balcony ■
seats practically as near the ;
screeji as those on the lower floor -
and the angle at wihch the pic-1
tures are projected enable these I
seated in that part of the house.'
to see the sharp outlines of pic— I
tures clearly from orchestra spats. :
The only difference is in the price,
and in order to introduce the bal-1
cony seats to movie fans here,
Manager Kincey has worked out a,
new price schedule covering seats
there..
