Governor Carl E. Milliken Friday
afternoon sent a telegram to Gov.
Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts,
congratulating him on the position
which he has taken on the strike Of
the Boston policemen.

prompt and vigorous action for the
restoration of orderly and lawful
government in Boston" said Gov.
Milliken in his telegram. 80
I'VE are watching you with intense
interest because we believe that the
maintenance of free institutions in
America depends upon the firm and
courageous handling Of every crisis

nifty Of the Boston police force
There is no room under our form of
government for forcible coercion of
the people or the constituted author

SPARKLING FARCE MONDAY.

No barrel of monkeys could ever
provide more fun than will be sup
piled the first three days of next week
at the Augusta Opera House when
Baby Mine" is given its first presen-
tation in this city. This is the
famous New York farce that
had the whole of blase Gotham con-
vulsed with laughter. The theme is
new on the stage, but it is taken from
real life, for it concerns the desire of
a man to have baby and the deceit
practiced by his wife to secure one.
So great is the interest already
aroused in this production, that its
performances are sure to be witnessed
by packed houses. Theatre parties
are already being arranged for Mon
day afternoon anc evening. Reserved
seats may be obtained from IL O'Clock
noon to 8 o'clock in the evening and
it is highly desirable to secure them
in advance.-Adv.

ADJUSTMENTS
'PLAYTHINGS'' CREATES
PROFOUND IMPRESSION

Mirror Held up to Life in Absorbing
Drama Now Being Given at the
Opera House Unusual Theme
Darinaiy Treated with interesting
Story-Pieture Portion Of Program
Strong One.
"Playthings" is not a plaything.
Those who have witnessed the per-
Torrance of this remarkable drama
by Sidney Toler which win be given
for the last times this afternoon and
this evening at the Opera House
have declared it one Of the most un-
usual and startGngly sensational ever
offered in Augusta. The theme of
the play is not unusual, but the bold
way in which it is handled, the alb
sorbing interest of the story and the
wonderfully good Interpretation of
the various roles by the members of
the Luttringer Stock company make
this true dramatic treat.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
there Is every reason for the great
interest that Is being shown in the
possesses every element that makes
for successful play. It catches the
attention from the rise Of the hrst
curtain, holds 1t enwrapped, now by
sparkling comedy. now by the power
/ ana directness Of its story, by its
emotion and potency to move to
tears. 1t eliminates In a powerful
and surprising climax which casts a
spell over its auditors not likely to
be dissipated until long after they
leave the theatre.
Never have the members of the
Luttringer company done better work
; than they do in this offering, either
individually or collectively. Miss
Anne Kingsley rises to new heights OF
which probably not even her most
, sincere admirers believed her capable
as Marjorie North. AS John Hay
ward, Al. Luttringer proves to be a
friend to whom Marjorie can safely
give her love. William Laveau makes
the most of the sinister Gordon Tren-
with, waster and profiigate. while the
other roles played by Billy Hall. John
Dugan. Kenneth Fleming. Dorothy
LaRue and Marie Fountain are in
most excellent hands.
Equally powerful as "Playthings,'
but offered through the medium OF
moving pictures. is another drama.
Restless Souls" a Triangle feature
that can fail to leave its impression
just as strongly as the spoken drama.
The tenseness Of these two produc-
tions is relieved by delicious photo
comedy and some late news views
The work of the orchestra, too. is es-
pecially worthy of notice.-Adv.

eagerly. Did the Lieutenant tell them
that Theodore Dresser, novelist, had
that afternoon been struck by an automo-
bile at Columbus Circle, run over and
taken to Roosevelt Hospital? He did not,

imagine him saying. So they went away
from there and nothing was printed.
