“ANNA CHRISTIE’’ IS
COMING ATTRACTION
In all the history of motion pic- 1
tures, no mightier scene ever has *
been screened, it is said, than the I
“crux” scene of ‘Anna Christie,” j
Thomas H. Ince’s latest offering''
which is a coming attraction :.t the
Rylander Adapted from Eugei.-?
O’Neill successful stage play,
the stjene has been filmed with even
more daring than maiked the stage
offering. It portrays a girl, desert
ed in childhood by her father, who
thinks he is helping her by sending
her farm from the influence of the
sea.which she fears, trapped into a
confession of the life into which rer
father’s spurning of responsibility
forced her.
When she tells her father, who.
thinks her a lovely Madonna, and
her sweetheart, who has fallen in
love with her “because she is the
first deent woman he ever ha
known,” just what she has been, the
scene works up to a dramatic fury
almost unbearable in its intensity.
Blanche Sweet, George Marion and
William Russell are the actors in in
powerful sequence.

THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER
HIS CHILDREN'S
CHILDPEN' SHIN.
Arthur Train’s Famous Novel
at Rylander Monday
and Tuesday
The Paramount production, “His |
Children’s Children,” a picturiza- I
tion of Arthur Train's famous novel,
playing at the Rylander Monday ana
Tuesday, treats not of the common
' place story of the “rich man's
son,” but of the new problem in
American life, the third generation
—the generation that exemplifies
the saying, "it is only three gener
ations from shirtsleeves to shirt- j
sleeves.”
The picture shows how the great ;
fortune of a pioneer American rail- |
road builder—a ti'p'ical figure— ’
i eacts through a smug second gen
eration, and in violent, sudden and :
complete dissension, shatters the '
whole family to piece- in the third j
generation—the jazz generation of
the present day. It is not only one
of the most sensational and melodra
matic novels of the times, but it is 1
the truest inditment of American!
society penned since the first novels
of Theodore Dreisfer.
The production is vested with a
cast and general equipment in;
keeping with the story itself, the,
cast including Bebe Daniels, George I
Fawcett, Dorothy Mackaill, Hale
Hamilton, Mary Eaton, Warner
lOland and John Davidson. Some of
the features which go to make it in
teresting, unique and appealing in
clude an allegorical shot of the
banquet of Croesus, richest man of
I ancient history, an exact duplicate
of the first Pullman private car and
the t/agic death of old Peter B.
Kayne. The picture locations almost
every one of New York and Los
Islang, are real.

Leah Baird Wears Wonder
ful Dance Costume in
New Picture
All the excitement and»thrills and
laughter any motion picture lover
could desire are to be found in “The
Destroying Angel,” in which Leah
Baird and her slumbrous eyes will
appear at the Rylander next Wed
nesday. Miss Baird has always
yearned for a role in which she was
not asked to smoke cigarettes or
steal some other woman’s husband
and has found it in this clever
adaption of Louis Joseph Vance’s
exciting novel. Miss Baird is gor
geous in her dance costume of gold
and feathers and a pleasing armful
in her Deauville bathing costume
when being carried off by the kid
napers. '
Little wonder that the dashing
John Bowers as the hero follows her
through her perilous experiences in
a wild motor boat chase and des-

overpowering villians as iMtchell

have been kept awal.j all night
reading the book will find it well
condensed here in six reels.
It is here that Miss Baird has giv

I prise. One could hardly suspect
such tense dama would develop so
much real comedy. Miss Baird
plays a mystery woman and not

. the popular dancer, she is never

I secret marriage and then became

of ‘The Destroying Angel” contains

EARLY INCOME TAX
RETURNS ARE ASKED
ATLANTA,., Ga Jan. 19.—J. E.
Rose, collector of internal revenue
for Georgia, is undertaking to im
press upon citizens the expediency
■ and approximate necessity of an
• early filing of .their income tax re
' turns.
The forms have been greatly sim
, plified this year, which means that
the taxpayer need take only a few
moments—in the average—to make
. out the same properly; but in reliev
ing the taxpayer of much of the
. complexity of his return, a heavier
; burden than ever has been put upon
I the local office byway of analya
. ing and checking up the same. Ev
ery return filed promptly, there
. fore, lessens the burden of ineon
. venience—both upon taxpayer and
( collector—as the period for closing
I returns draws near.
Mr. Rose is making every effort
, to expedite the business of his de
partment, with an eye to the com
fort of the taxpayers.
i ! Alaska is a nice territory, but we
: o wish she would make her weath
er stay at home.
