Hodges Comes Back Strong
In “AH Aboard For Cuba”
Augusta Audience Gives
Premier Comedian Real
Ovation. Show Is Best He
Has Yet Presented Here
BY RICH/MRD~ W. RILEY
Jimmie Hodges staged a come
back Monday afternoon and even
ing along a path strewn with
marks of glory. The public of Au
gusta received him with wide open
arm§ and gave him a rousing wel
come at his every appearance on
the stage. Jimmie made a little
speech to his "customers” in which
he told them he had risen from a
sick bed to come over and be with
them and that he was glad he had
come.
"All Aboard for Cuba” (Jimmie
calls it "Cuby” is a snappy com
bination of peppy music and songs,
live-wire comedy and clever danc
ing. A good plot goes through the
show and, of course, Jimmie comes
out on top of the world.
Several new faces were seen In
the chorus and they added to the
pep of the occasion. Jimmie is
rounding out an ironclad organi
zation for his winter in Florida
and Augusta people are enjoying
the process.
The show Monday, which plays
again Tuesday night and Wednes
day matinee and night, is a good
attraction, and more. With a num
ber of out standing features it is
good for a hit before any audience
PAINFUL CRAMPS
AFTER MEALS
Texas Lady Says Every
thing She Ate Seemed to
Disagree With Her Till
Black-D raught
Brought Relief.
Glen Rose, Texas.—Mrs. S. fi. Mc-
Coy, of this place, says: "Some
thing like three years ago I read
about Black-Draught and I was in
need of medicine for indigestion.
Everything I ate seemed to dis
agree with me, and I would nearly
,i cramp to death.
I had been suffering with this
trouble for quite a white and the
many things I tried seemed to give
me no relief.
"Then I began taking Black-
Draught—a dose after every meal
—and it gave me wonderful relief.
“For three ye* 'a we have not
been without it in this house. It
is the finest medicine for consti
pation and sour stomach.
“Wheiji my husband gets to feel
ing bad as a result of costiveness
and impurities in the system, he
takes a dose of Thedford’s Black-
Draught.”
Next time you feel distress after
meals, try taking a pinch of Blank-
Draught, dry on the tongue, washed
down with a swallow of water. The
experience of others should encourage
you to expect relief by taking Blac k -
Draught in this easy, convenient wav.
Many men and women have written
that, they take a package of Black-
Draught along with them when trav
eling, to have it handy for use at the
first sign of Indigestion.

INTRIGUED TASTE
ARRINGTON BROS. COMPANY
WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTORS
AUGUSTA, GEORGIA
that appreciates good work, and
Augusta audiences are always
known fortheir appreciation of ef
forts to please them Jimmie Hodges
himself says he had rather play be
fore an Augusta audiencethan al
most any he ever faced, because
they applaud freely and "get” the
jokes quicker than most any of
them.
"Hello Havana”, the opening
song, by the entire company, is a
fine chorus selection' and is pre
sented in anexcellent manner. One
of the best features of the show
is the “Old Fashioned Waltz”,
sung by Olloe Hodges and danced
by the men of the chorus. This was
a beautiful piece of work and it
stopped the show, several en
chorea being necesary before they
could proceed with the program.
Ted DeTurk and the girls present
ed another beautiful number in the
form of "Marcheta", in which the
costume effects and IJeTurk’s
voice held a distinct appeal for the
audience.
The real big feature of the even
ing however fell to the part of the
great Jimmie, himself, in his lcn
dition of "Wonderful Baby”. The
girls who appeared with him in
this played a prominent part with
individual singing of comeback
choruses, each of them a hit. This
was great.
The scenery in "All Aboard for
CubEf is the best the company has
used yet and the costumes were at
least up to the usual rule.
Another new face in the cast was
that of Tom Williams, as the He
brew bell-hop. His characterization
in this role was very creditable.
Wednesday night will mark the
last performance in which Hodges
and his companywill appear for
this engagement and until probably
the latter part of the season. They
go from here to Miami, Florida, for
the winter and arrangements are
being made to have the company
return in the spring to look for
ward to in the second coming of
Jimmie Hodges and wish him
every success in his stay at Miami.
