DAMAGED GOODS
GREAT TRIUMPH
MOVES 70 LYRIC
; "ip-mnued Goods,” the great seven-
Tee drama which has been shown at
the Georglan Theater for the entire
Past week, achieved such a brilliant
Success that it will be run at the
Lyric Theater another whole weck.
The demand for a larger house and
more seating room led to the change.
This is the only photoplay that
ever came to Atlanta, with the single
. &xception of “The Birth of a Nation,”
which could maintain an entire week
~run and then be returned for a full
second week,
- _The original conception upon which
the story is based comes from the
mind of Bugene Brieux, and was first
#nown to the public in literary form,
then as & play. It was first produced
on the American stage by Richard
Bennett, who now appears on the
_#creen, after the most discouraging
- opposition on the part of prudish the-
Rter owners.
~ When at last the play appeared it
‘eveated the wildest sensation, and
Ppeople thronged to hear the sermon,
which is breached in suth a skiliful
and fascinating manner,
The motion plcture version Is con
‘hllland h.to be even boun"nnd stronger
n the stage presentation.
“Damaged Goods” makes no ap
rl to the morbidness which seems
be inherent in human nature, It is
@8 clean and wholesome a 8 the spot -
dess hospitals which are shown in
some of its own scenes.
__The play deals, however, with &
ggdll- from which most people tend
: m and it exposes the fearful
of wrongdoing and im
moral life in a telling and impressive
manner. Not even Zola, that most in
m realist, ever dared to plcture a

Popular Theater Returns to Pol
icy Which Has Made It Leader
for Years.
The Savoy Theater announces a
change in policy, beginning to-mor
row (Monday), January 3, having ar
ranged to use strictly first-run Uni
versal pictures. This was done in
view of the fact that the Savoy has
always been the home of Universal
features, and the management wants
to do everything in their power to
please their patrons.
A well-known star will anpear there
every day in carefully sele«ted photo
plays.
Pretty Helen Holmes will be seen
Monday in the second episode of “The
Girl and the Game,” which promises
some new and original thrills, as this
daring little actress is not afraid to do
the most risky acts. She has often
told her director to let her know just
what he wants and she will do it. Men
often refuse to take the chances with
their Mves that nb\e does, but she never
falters.
A picture of George Ade's superb
comedy, “Father and the Boys,"” with
the famous actor Digby Bell, is fea
tured for Tuesday, and it is said to
be one of the Tunniest photoplays
ever known.
For Thursday a special Broadway
Universal feature in five parts, enti
tled “Landon's Legacy,” has been se
oured, starring the film favorite J.
Warren Kerrigan. This is a splendid
story, and the fact that this star takes
the léading role is enough to assure a
perfect production. The famous film
interpreter is seen at his best Jn this
drama, and he is supported by a
strong cast picked from {he best play
ers in filmdom
For every Saturday until finished
the Universal serfal “Graft” has been
secured No. 1 will be shown this time
The management saw the first three
reels of this Alm novel, and are de
'ghted In being able to offer it to the ir
patrons
