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.” Bus line to and from Myrtle Springs daily and Sunday.

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. Benny Alexander, a typical 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..
