The CLIMAX ON TUESDAY
A PLAY OF INTEREST.
HGfaIdGd As Among BGSI En-
Tour.

Wehers much talked of play, THE
Climax" is the most original type Of
play that was seen here last season.
The dainty melody drama has made q
most emphatic hit with local theatre
goes and Manager Willis Morgan has
succeeded in getting the play for re-
turn engagement The Climax" will
be seen at the opera house Tuesday
evening next.
The piece is so very natural and
life like in the telling of the story and
the actions OF the people that it can
be scarcely called a play
1t is the living out Of a novel and
dramatic story of how young singers
ambition is nearly thwarted by a self
ish and bigoted young doctor who loves
the girl, but does not wish her to
take up an operate career. '
The story is told with so many
touches and such a happy blending c,
athos and comedy that it is al
goCher delightful. During the course
Of the play "Pietro" plays on the piano
his composition and also the accompa-
niments for Adelina, who sings airs
from grand opera. 1t is truly won
dcrful blend Of music and drama.
The play, deep in conception, orig
iDality, intensity and wholesome hu-
n.or, goes far beyond anything pro-
duced by other authors. "The Climax
is highly endorsed by critics, who are
unanimous in proclaiming it the pur-
est play of the season.

AMERICUS GIVEN
MUCH PRAISE
BY FRIENDS.
Her Advantages Are Fully
Recognized.
State Papers Accord MGfitGd Praise
To Our City and COunty---URitGd
Effort Upon Our People Required
To Force 1t Forward.

Americus and Sumte rOcunty as
well are receiving many merited com
II iiments from their good friends of the
state press upon the material progress
of this section, and the very many
good things thus told the world
through the columns of metropolitan
Gailies is appreciated
The Atlanta Constitution has been
especially kind in this regard recent
|" in exploiting the progress of Sum-
ter county, while others of the state
Papers hav eevidenced the fact tha at
tcntion is focused here.
Than Americus, no one of the
smaller cities of tn estate is regarded
generally with more favor.
A beautiful city, a clean, progressive
city, and one with a bright future in
is material progress, it is calculated
to interest any one who knows of its
advantages and surroundings. No city
has a better backing or greater op-
portunities than Americus. This fact
cannot be denied
There is not one that is centere1
in a richer country, in a country
that is developing more rapidly, or
that holds out a greater promise of
future expansion in every line of ag7
rricultual wealth
United effort upon the part of our
people will keep Americus in the front
rank of Georgia cities.
Much has been accomplished already
but there is much remaining to be
done. We want more people here;
more houses for those already here and
the hundreds who will come when
homes are offered them, and, moreover,
the city needs more industries that
will afford people employment
An dnot few of these will como
with the current year The advantages
of Americas will be recognized by
industries seeking locations
Americus is destined to soon becom>
La greater and more prosperous city,
and only the united effort of her citi-
zens, a general pulling together, is re-
quired to bring about these desire
conditions. United and intelligent eff
fort will accomplish much for Ameri-
icus this year.
Make the city well worthy of the
praise accorded it by the state press
already-and more.
