| TWO MORE GREAT |
" PICTURES FOR THIS |
. WEEK IN ATHENS |
LT R T
Athenians, who this week have
already seen some of the best
pictures ever shown here, with
the Barrymore picture, “Svengali”
outstanding, as of course it should,
have at least two more to enter
tain them at the Palace and
Strand which are regarded as of
the best ever filined.
The first of these is the George
Arliss picture, “The Millionaire.”
In it admirers of this great actor
will see him taking a role in his
first modern comedy on the
gereen. Arliss has the clearest
enunciation of any actor on the
scereen, and the great Englishman
ig said to bhe as good in “The
Millionaire” as he was in *“Dis
raeli” and “Old English.” ~But
whether the story is good or not,
and it has been given a nice big
hand by the yrtiies, to see George
Arliss is enough. ‘The Million
aire” is at the Palace today and
LtOmMOTrrow . ;
“Abraham Lincoln,” with Wal
ter Huston, comes to the Strand
tomorrow. This -is the picture
that has packed ’em in wherever
it has been shown. In the cast
are Lycille La Verne, and Kay
Hammond, the latter as Mary
Todd. You will probably remem.
bher her as the crippled wife in
Gloria Swanson’s “The Trespas
ger,” “Abraham Lincoln” was di
rected by D, W. Griffeth, the
master of filmland when it comes
to spectacular productions.
“Abraham Lincoln” is studded
throughout its length with gems
of individyal performance, nota
bly lan Keith, as “John Wilkes
Booth”; Jason Robards, as “Hern
don”; Hobart Bosworth, as “Rob.
ert £. Lee”; Frank Campeau, as
“Sheridan,” comments one re
viewer,
Walter Huston, who plays the
title role, was already a great
actor when he went to the films,
but his work in “Gentlemen of
the Press”—you remember him,
he was the managing editor; and
“The Lady Lies,” both of which
have been shown here, immedi
ately placed him among the great
est of the Hollywood masters.
“Abraham Lincoln” was dialogued
by Stephen Vincent Benet, Pulit
zer prize poet and novelest. He
wrote “Johm Brown’s Body.”

ident; H. R. MeMillan, Jackson.

ler and Mr. Baughn were re.

‘was defeated by one vote. Alex.
andria, Va., was the other city.
'Resolutions were adopted thanking
‘the city of Athens and the vari
\lous organizations here aiding in
‘the convention.
Fire losses can be cut tremen
dously. by teaching the scliool
childrem fire prevention, said D.
W. Brosman, Albany, chief.of one
of the South’s best fire depart
ments. Give the children a com
mon knowledge of fire hazards,
have them assist in fire inspec.
tions in the homes, and make the
public “fire conscious,” he ad
vised.
* ‘Chief Brosman spoke of the
work of the fire colleges in North
Carolina and Florida. Praising
the work of the fire patrol, fire
men who patrol the streets every
night in search of blazes, Chief
Brosman said that this organiza.
tion prevented 85 percent of the
small fires of Albany.
W ‘F. Dunbar, manager of the
Southeastern Underwriters asso
ciation, discussed fire losses in
the United States. The amount of
losses has decreased in this coun
try. Last year, however, there
was a $5,000,000 loss. The iire
men are making an economic bat
tle when they compete with such
a loss as this, he said.
All officers of the Georgia
Fireman's association were re.
elected for arother year. A meet.
ing of the executive board will
be held ‘in Atlanta within tha
next ten days to decide the next

Rotarians Speak
On Vocational
Service at Meet
By SAM WOODS
“Buying and selling relation
ship” was the subject covered by
three speakers at the Rotary
meeting yesterday. Dr. J. C.
Wilkinson who presided, made the
introducing remarks presenting
the speakers as follows:
Morton Hodgson, Arthur Booth
and Lee Morris. It seems a gen
eral impression with the speak
ers, that the old saying by Wan
amaker, “That the customer is all
ways right” is the best policy,
however it developed in one case
that-a lady customer after wear
ing a hat to a county fair next
day returned the hat, Probably
a very good reason of how Mrs.]

LARRY (GANTT
wn RECALLS |
After supper at-our camp ;Oh
the Savannah river Henry Grady
suggested that we take a walk*up
the road to a good spring and ad
ded that he wanted to get a drink
of water ott of an old fasihoned
gourd, he . saill

R e cpring w A toejr
&\fi from a gm:id
g since he quit
iy college. "
He said when
g a ~student in
Athens he ’‘and
GANTT o t h e r college
boys would form parties and
walk out to Gum Springs, where
old Mr. John Nichols always
kept a clean gourd for him. A
countryman we met in the road
told us where we could find a
Lspl'illg and a woman we found at
'a cabin loaned us a long handle
'gourd adding that she washed it
horself and kept it hanging in the
'sun all day and it was dry afd
'swcgt. While sitting around .the
spring Grady gave me a talk on
the stbject of gourds. He said
water always tasted so good to
‘him out of a ‘gourd and he could
Imt understand why a man would
fill his somach with whiskey: and
other stuff when stuch water as
lwe were driiing bubbled every
where from the bosom of 'mld
l“mother earth”. gy §
Liked Rural Life
Grady said whilg he was born
and raised in.a town he always
had a hankering for the country,
and rural ways and customs of
which he had made a study,
Grady explained that to proper
ly prepare a gourd for a drinking
vessel it had to be cleaned and
then buried in the damp sand for
a week or so, It must then be
taken up and thoroughly cleaned
and scraped and always kept
hanging in the sun on a twig near
the spring.
After leaving the spring Grady
and T sat on a log near the road
side, T asked Grady what his de
gire and ambition were and he
knew I woutld give him all the aid
and support in my power, Grady
replied: “Gantt there is no -office
within the gift of the Amerigan
people to which I aspire, or waould
accept. Some of my good friends
without my consent have suggest
ed me for the U. S. Senate but
1 would not accept that or any
other position if extended to ‘me
on a silver platter. Besides our
old friendship, my visit to you
as before stated, was to get into
closer touch with the farmer and
see if I could not aid him in the
fight he is making. It is the man
behind the plow who feeds the
world, and we-all owe him a very
great debt of gratitude. But my
mission in life and to which I ex
tend 'to devote the remainder of
my days is tobring the North
and South together and let us

will here add that during Grady’s
visit to Elberton I did not see a
§ingle person under the slightest
influence of liquor. Of course
there were plenty of hip-pocket
bottles in the erowd but every
one knew that Grady was a pro
hibitionest and every %one had re
spect for his sentiment.
The next morning, after break
fast, our flotilla of cotton boats
continued its voyage down the Sa
vannah and about half past eleven
Janded at Maddox -Ferry in lower

The crowd was largely made tp
of Scuth Carolineans many com
