B Wlkeeler iy professor. of jflonal education at the Uni i¥ here. ilis work is well- BOWH to his friends, and to peo- I 8 throughout the state who are aterested in those activities, but e doubt whether very many Ath @ realize just how important ‘this quiet, self-effacing person P really is. When the association for thie Advancement of the Teaching ~of Agriculture met in Chicago re © cently, Mr. Wheeler was elected [ president for the coming year, ¢ while he was attending te his ¢ work in Athens, He is on the f County F. E. A. A. and CWA . committees, besides 'the Re-Em . ployment Bureau's committee. . His: work in the organizing of classes in the counties, and other forms of vocational education have iearned him prominence through ~out the state. So today we’re say ting “Hats Off!” to J. T. Wheeler. " Happy Birthday 3 ff!e You . Today’s December 13, but it's a lucky thirteenth for Elmer Craw . ford. That’s the date that his wife . was born, and today she’s celebra ~ ting her birthday. We wish you ,:}! sort of luck—that is, all sorts _ except bad, Mrs. Crawford—and “want to congratulate you. . And today’s “Shorty” Freeman's " birthday, too. We don’t know how . old he is, but he can’t be so young pite his sprightly step zince . today is also his grandson’'s birth ~day: young Arthur Foster is five months old, and Grand-daddy isn't - proud—much! Happy hirthday to both of you! The Omnibus’s Own ~ Human Interest Story . She didn’t have a telephone, £0 ~ whenever he wanted to see her, he ~ just drove up to the front door and ® knocked. If she had a date, al ;;'aieady, he’d go away—if she didn't © they’d go away For the past few . months, though, he’d been mighty ~ busy, so he hadn’t had a chance to . call. Finally, a few nights ago, he . did. Fingering his tie to make © sure it was straight, he knocked .on the door, and waited for some _ one to answer it. She came to the _ door. He asked if she was doing ¢ anything. “Oh,—" she cried. -~ “You're just the one we're looking ~ for. Come on in and make our - fourth at bridge.” They had a very leansaut evening, and then he %g ot ready to leave. She took him ~to the door, and he turned.to kiss * her good-night. “Oh, no,” she said, | “Bobs in there.” “What . differ - ence does that make?” he wanted .to know. “Why,” she said, “didn't . you know? Bob and T married two - months ago!” Was that boy's face ~ Raffles, The ; ‘ - Gentleman Burglar -+ We don’t know whether the fel low who burgled those houses out . Milledge way is just a smart-’ ~ aleck or a real Raffles. Anyway, .in one of the houseés he left two _ notes, according to the stories we [ heard: one of them said “Apple . ‘sauce!” The other said: “Come -up . and see me sometime. I've got ~ more than you got.” He was cer g: leisurely—since he ate two . oranges in one house and drank " umilk in another. . Blank Pages _Not So Blank ’ ‘ . For the past few weeks we've ‘been worried by the large number of blank pages which have ap eared in certain national maga zines. At first’ we reasoned that they were that way bacause théy ‘couldn’t *be filled and because the ‘Christmas rush of advertisements . was so great. That didn’t make ‘much sense though, particularly “when Esquire came out with ‘the ‘legend across one of the blank _Pages: “This page is intentionally, and unavoidably left blank. “Yes yterday, a friend explained it an . to us. It seems that in other states " those blank pages have liquor ads “on them; in states where liquor ~ads @are forbidden, those pages are " “unavoidably” left blank, since the ~advertisers have already paid for “ for them—even though they don't " get anything for their money in certain states. . 3 ~ Speaking Of . - Liquor et * That last paragraph reminds us “of a very amusing incident which § took place in Athens a while baek. § One winter, this fellow decided . that i’'d be much nicer to be in the . Atlanta Federal Penitentiary ' than gpayim: for room, board and eoal. £ After all, ho' reasoned, the Atlanta " Pen was a mightly nice place. So “he sought a way of getting in it, | Without getting in it ‘for too long. i The best way he could figuer was i to =ell liguor in the Federal build- Accordingly, he got a pint e of liquor, and tried to sell O evervone who passed through the building. Naturally, no one ac ieepted, since it was a publie building—and Athenians wouldn't ihyway. Finally, he managed to iftract the attention of the offi ers, who promptly arrested him. Phen, he got a big shock. It Seems.that the Post-Office and the Building are the same— ot the Court House and the Fed wal Building, ana nstead of hav -4 the prospect of a winter's so ourn in the Atlanta Pen, he had he prospect of a winter on the sounty convict farm. * Christmas Seals are the ammuni %’?ion in the war against tubercm éfiosis.

They met in the St. Paul federal courtroom during the trial of Roger Touhy and three aides for the kidnaping of William Hamm, Jr., millionaire St. Paul brewer. Left to right, as they intently watched progress of the trial, are Haskell Bohn, Hamm, and “Jake the Barbér” Factor, all “alumni” in famous abduction cases. Joan Crawford and Clark Gable Star In “Dancing Lady” With Joan Crawford and Clark} Gable headlined, a parade of caval cade of chorus ensembles, and! Broadway drama #g story motiva tion, “Dancing Lady,” at the Palace Theater, towers to new heights in screen musical entertainment. . Here is the Joan Crawford of old, the lingeried lady of “Our Dancing Daughters,” “Our Mod ern Maidens” and “Our Blushivg Brides,” Teamed once more with CGable, Joan plays her chorus role with all she’s got. She wears the kind of costumes that men will gape at and women wlll try to copy. And when she dances—well, she dances! Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer has topped them all with ethis musical smash., The picture abounds with spectacleg that stagger imagination and thorbs with a romance that .alone would make the picture a grand evening’s entertainment. Robert Z, Leonard did a brilliang job of directing from the famous James Warner Bellah novel pube lished serially in a national maga zine, Joan plays the part of the burlesque chorine who is deter mined to make good on Broadway —at any price. Gable is the hard boiled dance director who treats .
