STAR BILL IS BOOKED
AT THE BUSY FORSYTH
A bill of more than ordinary’ Interest is
the attraction for the busy Forsythfi dally
matinee and evening performances this
week, and counting the reported heavy
advance sale and tremendous reservation
list as a foundation, it is declared that an
attendance record for summer time will
be established.
In the seven numbers on the program
there are music, dancing, novelty, comedy
sketch and a new idea in acrobatics that
will be especially Interesting. It is the
sort of bill that established the popular
ity’ of the Forsyth.
William Rock and Maud Fulton are to
make their first bow to an Atlanta audi
ence. Those who have seen the famous
musical comedy stars In some other city
can appreciate the astonishment that is
in store for those who have never seen
the act. There is but one William Rock,
the greatest dancer in muufeal comedy and
vaudeville, and in referring to the star it
is but natural that the charming partner
is thought of Immediately. Miss Fulton
is dainty and charming, and a dancer as
clever almost as her partner. The act
promises to be one of tne fine hits of the
Forsyth season.
Arthur Deagon, the distinguished Amer
ican comedian, a man with ideas all dif
ferent from the usual run. will be another
of the cards that will attract, and famous
Hoey and Lee. the character comedians,
will have something to do with the en
tertainment The merit of the bill wijl
have a real boost in the act of Catherine
Hayes and Sabel Johnson, character
comediennes, who e.re in a class entirely
their own. and who will produce a sketch
that is all laughter. George Clay, a clever
cartoonist; Fred ani Annie Pelot, the
joking jugglers, and ihe famous LaVeen
and Cross trio of Roman acrobats make
up the program.
FORMER FORSYTH STARS
HEAD THE BIJOU BILL
For the. week opening this afternoon at
the Bijou there will be an aggregation of
acts that can not fail to entertain. The
clever eccentric dancing of McMahon,
Diamond and Clemence should prove a
drawing card. Al Edwards, the popular
blackface comedian, will introduce some
new stories and music In his own pecu
liar manner. Fay and Miller will do a
comedy singing and talking stunt, and
Toom'er and Hewing will offer a comedy
sketch entitled. "It Happened in Looney
ville." The motion pictures which open
and close each performance at the Bijou
are now changed daily, and are of the
best quality, specially selected. Matinee”
