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. onm® CONCERT SOW What is promised to be a most enjoyable event is the concert to be given by the Americus Symphony Orchestra at the Rylander Theater Sunday afternoon at 3 P.

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.
