EVERYONE EAGER FOR LITTLE SHEPHERD" Play TONIGHT

The large advance sale for "Thc
Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come"
play to be given as an Augusta En-
tertainment Course attraction at City
Hall this evening shows that no mis-
take was made by the local manage
ment in securing this very popular
entertainment.
The lovers of this well-known book
by John Fox, Jr.. are numbered by
the millions. Eugene Walters, the
we'll known playwright. who was
commissioned to dramatic the novel
has produced a fascinating play in
four acts, following closely the fam
Gus book. Many would call it a good
old fashioned melodrama, for it holds
audiences spellbound, filled as it is
with pathos, romance and thrilling
situations.
The scenes of the play, The Little
Shepherd of Kingdom Come" are laid
in the heart of the Kentucky noun
tains. 1t tells a human and intensely
fascinating story of the somewhat
primitive life there: a boys love for
his dog: Kentucky feud and a Jus
tice of the Peace, who with a volume
of Blackstone under his right arm
traveIsod the mountains in the in
tcrcst OF Justice, form the pivotal
points of interest of the play.
The curtain rises on q mountain
fastness and a fight: Chad. a home

ton by DAVIS Dillon and his brother,
