The regalia and costumes of any
organization usually carry a deep
significance. The white robes of the
Ku Kiux Klan carried their own mes-
sage. After the dissolution of that
powerful organization by order of
(Jeneral Nathan It. Forrest certain
sections of the South were over run
with base imitations of the original
order. It is little wonder that tiese
unscrupulous night riders who
wiii:giil null wicked wrongs under
the cloak of a stolen name donned the
red inl.es if nnardiy and blood. In
"The Traitor.'" the dramatic sequel
to "The Clansman" both the real Ku
Khix Klan and the base counterfeit
figure vt ry promim ntlv. This pow-
erful organization of Thomas Dixon
Jr. "a latest noved will be seen at the
Auditorium next Wednesday night.
The success of " The Clansman' for
the past three yearj has so exhausted
the supply of such adjectives as
phenomenal tremendous unpreiid-
ented cyclonic much-talked-of etc..
that those who have to write about
the first tour of "rhe Traitor' are
really in the midst of nn adjective
famine unless they repeat those appli-
ed to "The Clansman." After all it
is a case of lightning striking twice
In the same place for "The Traitor"
is duplicating the triumph of the
play to which it is a sequel. The i.ew
play which was dramatized by ('ban-
ning Pollock and Thomas Dixon Jr..
from Mr. Dixon's latest novel will be
seen at the Auditorium Wednesday.
