WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 30, 1924 ’ WATTENDED ‘ i. LEGiON POST FEED (Continued From Page One) er states, and which is generally regarded as the “playground of the Legion.” Qualifications for membership in this branch of the Legion were stated as having “put , out’’ for the Legion, the term be ing intended liberally and not to be encompassed within such serv ice as having purchased a ticket to a Legion supper, one of the speak ers stated. There is at present no “Forty and Eight” locale in Ameri cas, but following last night’s meeting it was evident that such a “locale” will be organized here without delay. Others speakers who addressed the Legionnaires and their -friends included John Sheffield; president of the Rotary club'of Americus, who presented a thoughtful view of the pending bonus bill now before congress, in which he drew atten tion to the huge sum that will be necessary to pay such a bonus as is proposed in the bill. To his mind, Mr. Sheffield said, the pay ment of this bonus would dost the government, and the people of this nation a tremendous sum and that this sum would be one for the young men of the nation to ulti mately pay off, “for we older men won’t be here much longer to pay any taxes.” His address also con tained a complimentary reference to the Legioruas an organization, ! the hope being expressed that the young men banded together therein, and who must carry on their work durirfe 1 a single generation, with out being able to take in older men with they. - experience and more mature years now or to draft younger men with their enthusiasm and strength in future, might use their strength and power construc tively for the good of the nation as a whole. At the conclusion of his address Mr. Sheffield’s re marks were roundly cheered.

Seats were placed on sale at. the box office this morning and there has been a. steady, stream of patrons to secure them. i With a reputation that makes its coming a real event this musical sensation which played 400 nights at the Globe Theater, New York, claims the distinction of having the greatest dancing chorus that has ever been seen here, and includes the sensational, thrilling steppers from London, the .Sunbeam Girls, who were brought to this country especially for “Good Morning Dearie.” These dainty English lassies have been trained to work with the pre cision -es a Swiss watch. Degas, who came as near as anybody to cap turing the thrill and beauty of the ballet, would have liked to try and get on the rhythmic syn chronized perfection of these danc ers from England and it would have been worth his time. the Sunbeam Girls the production boasts not only a bevy ■of show girls, but q double quar tette pf young men -whose singing and stepping make them interest- I ing factors in the performance. The ! company appearing here is the only one resenting /‘Good Morning Dearie and Ameridus is the only small city in Georgia laying this attraction, it not appearing in either Columbus i or Albany. VICKSBURG HERALD PRAISES “VENUS” “Venus,” the’attracton at the, Ry lander on Tuesday, Feb 5. secured glowing notices during its recent en gagement in Vicksburg, Miss., and the following review Os its per formance is reprinted from the Vicksburg Herald of Jan. 23: “George Wintz, producer of ‘Shuffle Along,’ the most famous show on Broadway today, has es tablished an enviable reputation as a producer of shows of the lighter type, and ‘Venus’ is no exception to the rule. “Miss Nyra Brown, growing more beautiful year by year, was the Ve nus and her acting was delicious.’ She has a beautiful soprano, well trained/ and her costumes were a revelation to the ladies of the un dieneg. “Johnny Getz could make the Sphinix laugh and he gets his ef fects not by horseplay but by legi timate y means; in short he is art artist and the smile he brings wild last a long time. “The stage setting are elaborate and in most charming taste; one scene shows an express train in mo tion while the storm clouds moVe rapidly overhead. This is as good a show as anyone cares to see and deserves to play to capacity busi ness wherever good and artistics work is apreciated. / /FLAMING YOUTH” AT RYLANDER TODAY There are styles in motion pic tures as in everything else. One <>f the prevailing styles is- for com edy drama written around the mad rush of the younger generation for excitement and pleasure. In every style series there is one picture which stands way above the rest of its type in interpreta tion of the general theme. Os the series of pictures which have been made with the present “jazz” age as a background, “Flaming Youth” playing at the Rylander Theater to day and tomorrow is without doubt I the big outstanding picture of this! style. As a novel “Flaming Youth” prov ed a tremendous sensation. Its author his identity under the pen name of Warned Fabian, and al though the book has gone into sev eral editions, literary critics all over the country as asking still: “Who is Warner Fabian?” The daring story treats of the lives and loves of a modern mother and her three ultra-modern daugh tes, but deals more especially with the love adventures of the young est daughter, a sophisticated yet in nocently naive “flapper,” whose de sire to learn all there is to know about life leads into a series of strange and at times serious com-i plications.
