among the captains of industry of the

The drama that ar s >s out of Stock

that parades Itself before the eyes of
the world in the superlative dress of

strikingly coherent manner.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
Play shows to great advantage on the
screen; it is impressive, its situations
are tense, ttio characterizations ren
dered by tha players are finished por
trayals enacted by stars of an equal
calibre.
Gladys Hanson appears as Mary
O'Hara, the girl of the slums who
rises from the low level of life in
which she was reared and who at the
risk of her own name lays haro the
true and disgraceful character of
Aines, who is engaged to a social
worker. Arthur Hoops is cast as the
man Douglas Aines and impersonates
the character admirably.
He brings out tbe evil and lustful
character of his part with striking pre
cision. so well that one is inclined to
think it would have been done no bet
ter. Ruth Thompson, the well-mean
ing but misguided young woman who
is in love with Aines. is played by
l.orraine Hiding. * William Russell ,s
Bill Hubhell, the saloon keeper. He
seems a little too refined-looking for
ids part, out doubtless there are re
fined appearing bartenders as well as
less reputable men.
He is athletic build, and when he
knocks out a promising white hope in
his hack room and a little later floors
a stalwart negro, any doubts which
may have arisen before concerning his
ability for h s Job are speedily
squelched. Iva Shepard has a smaller
part as l,n*y 1.1 z, a woman of the
streets.
The sets of the production are real
istic and the scenes well chosen; the
photography in the print viewed Is
not quite up to the standard of the
company, but the film Is delicately
tinted and the light is good through
out.
"The Straight Road" will be wlt- (
nessed with pleasure by all. The story
is carefully constructed; the attention
is always held; the climax is reached
by a series of events each of which
has a powerful meaning which is driv
en home by the good acting of the
cast. The ending is happy for all con
cerned, except the villain, who receives
his just deserts. On the whole, “The
Straight Road" is a fine picture.
“Aristocracy.”
One of the strongest pictures to be
at The Strand this week will be “Aris
tocracy,” by Branson Howard, a Para
mount production, featuring the cele
brated American star, Mr. Tyrone
Power, in the leading part. It is a
pictorial dramatic study of society and
its shams, the principal actors in the
play being Tyrone Power, Margaret
Skirvin, Edna Mayo, Arthur Hoops,
Ida Waterman and William Rosell.
“Atlantis.”
.Tuesday The Strand's picture is
probably the greatest sensation that
two continents have ever known. "At
lantis,” a stupendous $75,000 film,
adapted from the world’s famous nov
e! of that name, written by Gerhart
Hauptmann.
The name and fame of Gerhart
Hauptmann are known the world over,
alike to men of letters and lovers of
the best in the field of literature. The
distinguished German author is In the
zenith of his literary power, and as
the winner of the $40,000 prize in lite
rature, holds an enviable position in
the forerank of modern authors. It
was only after much persuasion that
Hauptman consented to have his story
adapted for the film, and he has ex
pressed gratification at the result.
The photo-drama follows closely tne
absorbing and thrilling novel which
hears its name. The scenes are un
folded in sequence according to the
plan of the distinguished author, and
nothing has been overlooked in the
matter of detail. The beholder is car
ried in vision to many climes, and
on his journey to the New World, the
leading character Is a passenger on
a liner which sinks in midocean amid
many exciting scenes of panic and he
roic rescues. This episode has been
pronounced one of the most remark
aide and realistic ever produced in
films.

All New York Purchases of
Mr. Schneider Now on Sale
The Most Wonderful
Purchases Ever Made.
An Opportunity Ottering ot Thousands ot
Women’s Fine Suits, Coats and Dresses.
Mr. Schneider had only been back from the market
about ten days when some of the largest manufacturers
wired for him to come back to see some mighty good spe
cial lots of suits, coats and dresses. The lots were tre
mendously large but mighty good, so were bought at sac
rifice prices for spot cash. Spot cash always gets the
best, but in this instance it worked wonders and got the
most wonderful values for you ever brought into the city.
Positively it’s a shame to sell such high class garments at
such ridiculously low prices.
Mr. Schneider says he never bought merchandise so
cheap in his life as he did on this trip. He actually bought
suits, coats, etc., from the best manufacturers at twenty
five cents on the dollar, and if the women of this city are
any judges of merchandise he ought to sell every suit and
coat that is sold in the city, because no other merchant
has the merchandise at such low prices. These values
are not exaggerated, far from it—but in many cases the
values should be double what is claimed. It is hard to
believe the prices we quote, but come and see and match
every one with-the garment itself.
Women’s sl7 Suits at $7.95
Here is one lot of the fine
suits bought and they are
the best $17.00 values you

are used in these suits.

ner’s guaranteed satin;
