from the Austro-German-Bulgarian

ings toward the Centrhl Powers.
It transpired in the house of lords
today that General Sir Charles Monro,
commanding at Gallipoli, had given
an opinion regarding the course to be
followed there and Lord Blbblesdale
said Monro recommended withdraw
ing. It was stated that the govern
ment is considering Monro’s recom
mendation. but not officially stated
what it was.
The statement hadf hardly been
made when the war office stated that
the British had made a successful at
tack on the Turks there, which leads
to the belief that Kitchener had decid
ed to press operations.
The Serbians still are retreating
before the Invaders, but unofficially
It was stated that the British defeat
ed the Bulgarians near Rabrovo and
that the French are holding their

There is little change on any front,
except that the Italians are heavily
bombarding Gorizla and, it is said,
preparing to launch half a million

No city in Georgia celebrated
Georgia Products Day iqore uniquely
more fittingly or more interestingly
than Athens when the Chamber of
Commerce joined with the Drama
League of the city in a dinner served
by the domestic science department
at the State Normal (School last
night. The dinner was followed by a
number of short after-dinner speeches
by prominent citizens and then the
main address of the evening was
heard, being delivered by Mr. Percival
Chubb of St. Louis, president of the
Drama League of America.
Inspirational Event.
The affair was not only an en
joyable one but an inspirational on a
as well. A delicious dinner of REAL
Georgia products prepared and serv
ed by REAL Georgia girls is some 4
thing that no other city or commu
nity in the state had the privilege ot
enjoying.
And-
Such a Dinner!
Such a dinner it was! Nothing
elaborate, but so wholesome that we
absolutely refuse to associate it with
any “a las,” “aus” or those other
things that make a hungry fellow
think he is being cheated out of some
thing on the bill o’ fare. The ham
was that good old country kind you
used to eat when the head of the
house carried that “key basket”
around with her that Uncle Dave paid
tribute to in his toast while the tur
key was as tempting as that on
lean citizens in small boats on the
high seas Was not regarded as ac
cording them a “place of safety” un
der international laws. Dr. Cecile
Greil of New York, the only native
American known to have survived the
tragedy, has made an affidavit which
reached the state department today,
that the submarine continued shell
ing the Ancona after she stopped,
and it is believed that this fact will
be the chief one' upon which repre
sentations to Austria will be made.
Dr. Greil was below when the subma
rine first was sighted and did not say
whether any warning was given.

Liverpool, Nov. 18.—Twelve Amer
leans, members of the crew of the
American line steamer. New York,
which arrived Monday, were sen
tenced to a fortnight’s imprisonment
at hard labor.today for leaving the
vessel without passports and when
they had been refused permission to

Another American was sentenced to
a four week’s hard labor-for violating
of the alien regulations.

may have failed to take note of but
not to taste of, I assure you. All this
was followed by a delicious salad
course that the domestic class of the
Normal has adopted as one of its
own products and then came ice
cream with whipped cream and de
licious Georgia peaches and still
again hot coffee and fruit, Georgia ap
ples, Georgia grapes, Georgia pecans,
Georgia pomegranates and oranges.
Experts Made It.
This dinner was prepared and serv
ed by the domestic department of the
Normal School, juniors and seniors,
who are under the instruction of Miss
Edna Randall as head of the depart
ment, assisted by Miss Briggs and
Miss Beard. What these young ladies
don’t know about the culinary art Is
hardly worth knowing as was demon
strated last night. They were in con
junction with the entire Normal
School the hosts of the occasion and
the Chamber of Commerce and the
Drama League are to be congratulated
that they were fortunate enough to
have them hosts of last evening’s din
ner.
The dinner was served in the main
dining hall which was beautifully dec
orated with autumn flowers, English
hawthorn ana chrysanthemums.
Took Gridiron Turn.
Following the dinner, wnich was
indeed a representative cornucopia of
the great resourcefulness of tne state,
few short speeches were made as
a prelude to the main address by Mr.
Chubb. At this period of the even
ing the affairs took the turn of a
’grid” contest when Dr. T. J. Woofter,
acting as ’toastmaster, introduced
himself as “quarterback” for the rest
of the evening’s entertainment.
Dr. Woofter himself goi away for
a neat gain before taking out time
and called on Dr. Jerre M. Pound, who
ordinarily is head coach of the af
fairs at the Normal School but who
this time was given ten minutes to
make a “touchdown” with the com
paratively easy subject, “Georgia
Girls.” The quarterback should have
been penalized for using his best play
on the first signal but Mr. Pound-
Balanced the advantage ,by calling
attention to the nervousness of the
team at the beginning and after di
recting a few remarks to Athens in
general as to why she should appre
ciate the State -Normal more, passed
the-ball to Chancellor Barrow who
made a record run carrying the the
“Georgia Boy.”
( “Uncle Dave” Scores.
I “Uncle Dave” though did a bit of
hiking and came very near missing
his touchdown on account of getting
off-side with the wrong suoject. The
Georgia boy is mighty interesting to
him but we guess he has so much of
him every day that on an occasion
like last night’s he would rather run
from another formation. He spoke
of the good old days of our mother s
and grandmother’s when the mistress
of the house went around with her
“key basket” and when there was
something to lock up worth whil ,
something in the pantry, something
in the smokehouse and something in
the harvest. His remarks were in
deed appropriate of the occasion.
Mayor Was “Fullback.”
.Mayor Dorsey, upon being intro
duced, usurped the position of “full
back” and with an eloquence that has
brought him to the political platform,
to the Red and Black mass meeting
rostrum, to master of ceremonies at
street carnivals, etc., told of the
greatest center of Georgia’s products,
ATHENS. He came very near carry
ing the ball from “Uncle Dave's” sig
nal though, for his soul seemed some
how possessed With something or oth
er that sounded like that old b&Td:
“O, Maid of Athens” You know
the rest.
Team-Work Discussed.
Mr. C. D. Flanigen, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, delivered a
short speech on “Team Work in the
Industrial World,” enumerating brief
ly some of the wonderful resources
of the stae, paying tribute to the ed
ucational instiuions of Ahens, espe
cially the Normal School, but sug
gesting that provisions should be
made whereby more of the children
and young men and girls of the state
would take advantage of these oppor
tunities offered.
Mjr.Chubb’s, Address..
After the dinner was served the en
tire student body of the school gath
ered around the walls to hear the ad
dresses and following Mr. Flanigen,
Dr. Woofter introduced Mr. Percival
Chubb of St. Louis, who is president
of the Drama League of America.
Mr. Chubb has had wide experi
ence in drama work, in pageantry and
folk exhibitions. He was brought
to Athens through the efforts -of Dr.
Howard Odum, who is president of
the Athens branch of the national or
ganization. In his address, which
was delivered from the subject, “Fes
tivals and Plays in Community Life,”
he outlined somewhat the ideals of
the organization and told of some of
the things the Drama League wished
to accomplish. The gist of which is
to get the people to participate in
their entertainment more than hav
ing someone else act for their en
joyment. Pageant, sush as was put
on by the city schools last spring, by
the summer school in August, civic
pageants that are being given over
the country to awaken more civic
pride by getting the masses to par
ticipate, celebrations such as- those
that will be held over the country
next year when the tri centennial of
Shakespeare’s birthday will be cele
brated, with local talent taking part.
This, however, is but a phase of the
Drama League and there are many in
Athens who, after hearing Mr. Chubb,
appreciate the scope of the organiza
tion, see how well it fits in the needs
of developing more civic, state and
national pride, and from It ther6 Is
no one but who could learn how to
better spend much of their time given
to recreation, enjoyment and leisure.
‘^Glory, Glory to Old Georgia!”
At the close of the address the stu
dent body of the -Normal sang “The
Red Old Hills of Georgia.” The uni
versity band and the university quar
tette furnished the music for the en
tertainment.
The famous "Georgia Band” sere
naded the dispersing feasters with
“Glory, Glory to Old Georgia,” march
ed to town playing it every step of
the way—and Georgia Products Dqy
in Athens ended with the echoes of
the tnne mingling with the stroke of
the midnight dock.
