ODYSSEY" At THE
SAVOY THEATRE TO-DAY

A spectacular motion picture pro-
duction costing $2OO,OOO.0O to produce
and two years to make is booked for
The Savoy today.
Homer's odyssey" ranks among
the very highest of Greek literature,
while Homer is said to be, as a poet,
superior to Shakespeare. Odyssey
is a palace of enchantment showing
giants, mermaids, the transformation
of a king to beggar, the destruction
of the ships at sea, the burning of the
city of Troy and many, many more
interesting scenes. 1t is a picture of
rare beauty.
Jake Wells whom we have often
read of in Atlanta papers" the thea
trical magnate of the South, has paid
S16,527.0O for the use of this picture
in his houses, and Manager Wall
leases this picture from Manager
Walls.
This is not only a picture of excep-
tionally rare value, but an exception
ally rare opportunity for the people
of Americas to see such a wonder
tul production.
The Savoy will open today at One
o'clock, and this picture will be shown
today only. Notwithstanding the ex-
ceptionally high cost of this picture,
the admission to The Savoy will be
the same, 10c.
