At the Strand during the week
“The Book Of Talbot” Is Heroic Biography
“The Book Of Talbot” by Violet
Clifton; New York: Harcourt,
Brace; 439 pages; $3.50.
It's seldom that a book puts me
at a loss. I can usually think of
something to say about practically
every hook I've come across, Whe
ther that something is good, bad
or indifferent is another thing.
Bui ‘“The Book Of Talbot” has me
stumped.
1 liked tHe book, In fact, I liked
it yery much, but why is more
than I can tell, 1t starts off in a
style which, at first, ig distinetly
annoying, but after twenty or
thirty pages the beauties of Mrs,
Clifton’s cameo-like simplicity ap
pear. They unfold and grip one
with the power which lies in ‘the
story of a real man—the real story
of a real man.
" albot Cliften ig set forth in this
book as few men are set forth in
biographies, for “The Book of Tal
bot”, is more than a biography.
Kvery line, . every page breathes
with the devotion of Violet Clifton
to her husband. An idolization
that- is easily understood before
the last of itg pages is reached.
Talbot was born of an old Eng
lish family, prominent in history.
He was educated at Eton and
Cambridge, and before he was
twenty he had been around ‘the |
world twice, He enjoyed travel,
and “The Book of Talbot” is di
lvided into “books” of his iravels: to
Alaska, to Siberia, to the *|Barren
Lands” of north Canada, and 'o
South America, Gleaned from per
sonal letters, word of mouth, and
a diary kept by Talbot the store
of information in this hook is
jarge. The many details of life in
far distant places, their manner of
|living, and their customg is rem
iniscent of “Moby Dick” with its
fascinating details of the whaling
profession.
Two of the divisions of the seven
Icontained in *“The Book of Tal-
and vou depend upon the eyes and
ears of others for a great part of
your pleasure.”
Book colle¢tors will be interest
ed to learn. that A. Edward New
ton has written a new book which
will be published by Little, Brown
in November. The new book is
entitled “End. Papers,’ and is the
result of a journey around Mr.
Newton's library. The author,
whose “The Amenities of, Book-
Collecting anc Kindred Affec
tions” .is his latest book, intended
making a trip around the world,
but. changes his mind and made
it around his library instead. Be
sides the trade edition there will
be a limited edition. This edition
will be unique in that it will con
tain a faesimile of Charles Lamb's
most famous essay, “Dream Chil
dren,” from the original in Mr.
[.\'ewmn‘s library. This facsimile
will be printed on heavy India
paper, in the same size as the
original, and folded to fit tnto a
pocket in the binding. This will
be called the “Dream Children
'E@tlon" and will' be distributed
g@a .or before October 10th,

of Africa,” and “The Burden of
Tibet and Rhythm of Burma.”
They are written in thig form, the
authoress explains, because dhe
trips to these countries run ‘like a
burden in the heart of one who
must chronicle.,” For some illogi
cal reason, these patches of poetry
—which are movingland powerful—
add unity to the book.
When this book was published
in England it received the acclaim
of the critics of that country. On
one point they seem to all agree:
“This astonishing book fits into
none of the nourmal categories”,
says one. ‘“This is an amazing
hook,” says another; and a third
says: ““The Book of Talbot’ is in
a class by itself’.” After reading
“The Book of Talbot” one’s only
wish is that there were more books
in this class. .
Violet Clifton’s heroic story
about her heroic husband has a
hreadth and scope which is almost
breath-taking and its strength and
beauiy is something rarely found
in a book today. Whether Talbot
Clifton was the man set- forth in
“The Book of Talbat” ig immateri

real persen, and his widow has
done her. work well. Her book
breathes and lives that intangible
isomething combined of knowledge,
art and devotion which makes

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
HORSE-DRAWN STREET CARS HERE ‘
- FORERUNNERS OF HUGE BUSINESS
IGeorgna Power Company
| Has Interesting tHistory
; In Athens 1
i A D 5 J
l By M. L. ST. JOHN |
“Whoa, mules! Whoa—whoa, you
ih]nnk-hlank-blflnk — Whoa, I tell
'you!" ‘
But the mules wouldn’t heed thei
cowboy's attempts of persuasion,
and down the streets of little old
Athens, Ga., in the year of 1885
ran the mules. They were drag
ging Athens’ first “street car” be
hind them. The passengers were
frantically clinging to their seats.
And the citizens of the town were
either chasing the car, or enjoy
ing real belly-laughs as they wit
nessed the discomfort of a pal of
theirs in the ‘“new inventions.”
This is one of the incidents in
the hstory of the Georgia Power
company here, which has improved
its service from a horse-drawn
street car—then the latest thing—
to a'system of modern coaches
canvassing the entire city, and a
tremendous electric service which
furnishes Athenians with the
“Whiteway” on Clayton street and
College avenue, street lights
throughout the city, and modern
home lighting equipment and elec
‘tric irops, refrigerators, coffee pots,
and accessories. Thus the Georgia
Power company here, which grew
;out of the earlier railway and
electric companies has extended
its service and kept abreast of the
times for over forty-two years.
The “Citizen Wherever We Jerve”
company, is the seventh oldest
business firm named on the Ban
ner-Herald’s Honor Roll. !
Cowboys and Mules
In 1885 a promoter named Snod
grass wended his way from Texas
to Athens and obtained a charter
for the Classic City Street Rail
way company, really beginning the
history of a passenger railway
transportation in the city.
A number of the older citizens
will recall the breaking jin of the'l
little Texas mules that were ship
ped untamed from the wilds of
the former independent Republic
on the Rio Grande. These daily
exhibitions of cowboy skill and
resourcefulness and opposing mul
ish stubbornness attracted as
much attention as does a game of
baseball nowadays on the Y. M.
C. A, ground on a summer atter-‘
noon. i i 1
The little rails were laid on
Broad, College, Clayton, Lumpkin,
Hancock, Pulaski, Prince and Mil
ledge, the little cars Wwere un
loaded and placed upon the rails
and the little mules were hitched
to the cars—and Athens had made
a step forward,
Money, in no small quantity,
rolled into the bank and prosper
ity seemed to be the portion of the
new venture. Mr, Snodgrass, how
ever, became homesick’ for the fer
tile fields of Texas, and transfer
red the property to Athens people,
First Street Railway
Before Mr. Snodgrass’ coming,
Athens had a ‘street railway in
1870. William Bailey Thomas,
later owner of the Tallulah Falls
Railway, built and operated for a
short time a freight railway on
Oconee street, which was intended
{o haul goods from the terminal
of the Georgia Railroad near
Carr’s Hill to the then center of
commergial Athens at Broad nad
Whomas streets. This railroad
‘was known as the Athens street
railway, but it was short lived.
In 1877 a charter was granted the
iAthens Transfer Railroad com
pany which projected a line from
‘the junction on the Northeastern
railroad (now the Southern rail
road) about 5 miles from the city
to a point on the Georgia rail
road several miles from this city.
This, perhaps, could not be
‘classed as a street railroad, and
at any rate, it never material
ized.
Eloc‘rio Railway
As the company that bought Mr.
Snodgrass’ mules and tiny street
cars was about to fail, E. G. Har
ris and John T. Voss of Macon,
purchased the property. They soon
extended the lines, discarded the
mules and substituted electric
motor equipment. On June 23,
1891, electric cars were operating
on the streets of Athens.
This company failed in 1893, and
George A. Mell was appointed re
ceiver and T. P. Hunnicutt as
Isuperintendent by the court. The
receiver was about to abandon
operations, being faced with fail
ure.
Appreciating -the grave conse
quences to the community follow
ing the withdrawal of its public
transportation facilities, a com
pany of men of vision and civie
loyalty under the leadership of
W. S. Holman, approached the
receiver with a proposition to
guarantee him against operating
loss, if he would allow one of their
number (C. D. Flanigen) to di
rect the operations of the prop
erty subject to the receiver's ap
proval, This plan was accepted
'and in force untii the property
was sold in 1894. 5
The property was bought by a
company with the following direc
tors: W. S, Holman, J. Y, Car
ithers, A. P. Dearing, J. A, Hun
nicutt and C. D. Flanigeh. Dr.
Hunnicutt later transferred his
interesy to William T. Bryan.
First Electric Light
The small steam plant located
just below the present steam plant
and substation soon proved inade
quate and the property at Mitch
ell's bridge was bought and devel
oped. In 1896 the street railway
generator was moved to the new
hydro-electric station, and Brum
by's drug etore was lighted by
current generated from the white
coal of the middl: Oconee river
on December 12, 1896.
Later a contrac. was made with
the city for street lighting, and in
1898 an additional turbine was in
stalled at the Mitchell bridge
plant to care for the increasing
load due to the growing popular
ity of eleetric lighting and to the
acquigition of the property and

contracts of the electric lighting
department of the Athens Manu
facturing company and the city of
Athens.
Needing more generating equip
ment, the company bought the
water power at Tallassee Shoals
in 1900 and made a’' compléte and
radical change in the generation
and distribution methods. A sub
station was erected on Prince ave
nue, and three-phase electric cur
rent from Mitchell’s bridge was
merged with that generated and
transmitted from Tallassee on a
common switchboard and from
that switchboard distributed
throughout the city.
The record low water period in
the rivers of Georgia in 1904
showed the company that it must
have a steam auxiliary. So, the
first unit of the present combined
steam and substation was @ in
stalled. Modern in every. respect,
the station had the finest horizon
tal steam turbine erected in Geor
‘gia and the boilers the second of
their type in the state. A turbine
twice the size of the first unit
was installed in 1908, and an ad
ditional unit four times the size of
the first units was added in 1919.
In the meantime, Barnett Shoals
was developed and put in service
in 1911, adding 3,700 H., P. to the
company's capacity.
Electric Railway Company
The property of the Athens Elec
tric Railway company was trans
ferred to the Athens Railway and
;Electrlc company in 1910. The
directors were: W. T. Bryan,
president; J. Y. Carithers, first
wvice-president; John White Mor
ton, secretary; C. D. Cox, treas
s Wi <B, Holman, 4&.: H.
Hodgson, J. M. Hodgson, Billups
Phinizy nad John R. White.
Henry L. Doherty & Company
of New York had acquired a ma
jority of the common stock and
was represented on the board of
directors in 1913. Captain James
White- and C. L. Proctor were
also named directors,
| Becomes Power Company
‘ The Athens Railway and Elec
tric company was merged into the
Keorgia Power company in 1926.
Two more 38,000 H. P. lines lead
ing here fromm Commerce have
been added to the company’s ca
pacity. One line comes direct from
}Commerce to the Athens steam
plant, - while the other comes via
Jefferson and Tallassee to the
Athens steam plant.
In its thirty years wunder the
same operating management, the
company has grown from its init
ial installation of 100 H. P., to
the present generating equipment
of nearly 10,000 H. P, and has
met all demands for power at
rates lower than any other com
pany in the state, its managers
say.
C. D. Flanigen, who has been
with company for nearly 30 years,
having headed the Athens Rail
way and Eleciric company, is
vice-president and divisional man
