Now, in any other part of the wide

AN AMERICAN WOMAN
Comes to tho odeon Tomorrow Even

ing
The next attraction at the Odeon
theater will be "An American Woman"
Thursday evening, January 18th, pre-
senting Miss Amber Lawlord for the
first time as a star in this city. The
play is by Charles Eugene Banks, an
author and lecturer of considerable
fame. and the star is one of the most
beautiful young women on the stage
today. AS the title of the play indi-
Gates, the play endeavors to present
the true American woman with all her
beauty of character and her quick wit,
and it will be seen before the evening
is over that IAN American Woman" is
the best kind of woman that could
be imagined and that her sterling
qualities win for her in the end the
same as ali American women win in
the end. The play was especially
written for Miss Lawlord after the au-
thor had many conferences with her
and learned to know her we'll Her
high breeding and exceptional dramat-
ic talents gave him the keynote for
the character he was to write, and the
critics who have seen the rehearsals
say that he has not only depicted the
ideal American woman, but he has also
given Miss Lawlord q character into
which she steps without effort and
which she is possibly the only woman
on the stage today to present. Opie

who saw several Of the rehearsals, has
this to say of her portrayal:
Miss Lawlord as Helen Chadbourne,
the central figure of the play, will
most certainly rank among the very
first of creative artists. Her interpre-
tation is singularly pure and elevated.
of commanding dignity and genuine
sympathy. In the most difficult situa-
lions her understanding is never at
fault, her Judgment is never betrayed,
her faith in the ultimate triumphs OF
goodness and truth never shaken. Fear
less in the face of evil, she demands
Justice Of all and for all. Miss Law
lord plays the part with dignity and
quiet force and a grace and charm Of
manner that will win her the hearts
of her auditors. She displays all those
graces of refinement and charms of the
cultured woman of the south, with the
fire and fine scorn of sham and sub
terfuge that are the inheritance of
noble nature"
An unusually lavish production has
been made for this Offering of Miss
Lawlord's and it is certain that play
goers who are interested. in the adj
vancement of the stage and it's meth

tertained by their evening with Miss
