ATHENS is now in the very midst
* of its pay spring season. All kinds
of entertainments, both large and
• mall, are being planned and enjoyed
by the college men the society girls
and the married contingent. Many
,.ncra enthusiasts have gone to At
lanta to attend Grand Opera, but we
jjave a rare treat here for those who
(toyed at home. The big chautauqua
i> a source of pleasure and education
which is entertaining hundreds of en
thusiastic people every morning, af
ternoon and evening.
^ POPULAR girl, who visited in
.Athens a few months^ago, recently
put in a long distance call for a cer
tain college man here!
It appears that she is very clever
and first ascertained if the young
man would pay the charges. He
creed and when "Central'’ Anally
pot the phones properly connected
some other chap was at the Athens
end of the wire. They talked on and
on md it cost the man about $20, so
I hear, for the pleasure of chatting
with the girl up in Vinginta. It seems
too bad that the wrong man did all
that talking!
« • •
JHE ABOVE whisper is now quite a
jolly as this one, which some of you
may know. An Atlanta society girl,
who is a former Lucy Cobb girl; met
me of the Vanderbilts when he came
with all his fine exhibits to one of the
h Atlanta Horse Shows; and they
became quite good friends. When his
was saying farewell, he asked her;
quite casually, to phone him some
time when she felt lonesome. She did
call him sometime afterwards, and
they talked and laughed and had just
the nicest kind of time. He was quite
a "smart Elec,” and the charges were
reversed, so "what could the poor girl
do,’ hut pay a fabulous sum to the
telephone company for her chat with
Vanderbilt!

THAT “SHOWER OF GOLD” which
The Herald has for the babies of
Athen- and vicinity is attracting
much interest. Have you entered your
baby in the contest?
* • •
ALL ATHENS is on tiptoe concern
ing the two big Georgia-Tech
baseball games here next week. Many
interesting preparations are being
made, and "specials” will bring large
crowds of visitors here to see "Geor
gia bet Tech.”
There will be a large afternoon
dan.-ant after the game on the 9th,
and that evening a large and bril
liant dance will be given in the ball
mom of the Holman building. Also
there are some other entertainments
Which are being planned and they will
t*e announced on Saturday in these
columns.
• « *
P,V THE WAY, someone has asked
n.e why Athens doesnt’ havt
more garhage wagons and why they
don’t collect the trash from the vari
ous back yards more than they do?
Really these things are necessities, but
I can’t say why there aren’t more.
NOW THERE are two lovely girls
coming over to Athens next week,
and two devoted chaps are impatientl,
waiting to see them. Well, before
many days I shall be able to impart
to you some news which will be wel
comed by many of the smart set and
the college crowd as’well.

THE OMEGA BETA CLUB'S
PLEA TO YOU.
The members of the Omega Beta
club are Misses Natalie Bocock, Kath
erine Morton, Otey B. Vincent, Mar
garet Campbell, Marie Reviere, Janet
Newton, Julia Orr and Katherine Row
land.
As published in the Herald Tuesday,
they are anxious to give the East
Athens children, for whom they have
a "Story Teller’s Hour," and among
whom they are working; a picnic and
an automobile ride on Saturday,
All citizens of Athens who have
automobiles are asked to lend them
to the Omega Betas on Saturday that
the little tots across in East Athens
may have a ride into the country.
Can you not realize on these warm
days, what a splendid thing it would
be to let some little chid, less fortu
nate than your own little boys or
girls, ride in your automobile out into
God's beautiful country? Can you
not give your car one day to make it
possible for a number of children to
picnic in the woods?
If you will lend your car on Sat
urday just phone any of these young
ladies mentioned above (or phone the
directress of the Omega Beta’s at 119)
and say so.
You will sleep much better the night
after your car has given so much
pleasbre to these little tots, and need
less to say, so will they. Phone now
before the matter is forgotten.

delicate fabrics can be shrunk here without harm to the colors

surrounding country we have installed a shrinking Apparatus
that does perfect work on wool or cotton fabrics, fixes all ma
terial so it won’t shrink any more. Come see the machine
work. Wash fabrics 3c yard, woolen 5c.
A Fashion from Long Ago
The wheel of fashion has brought back again the demand for beautiful sheer
muslins that were so fashionable in Kate Greenaway’s time, and that is why this
fabric is called “Kate Greenaways.” Its principal charm lies in the small figured,

For dancing dresses and all manner of summer frocks, Kate Greenaways will
be worn by the smartest women.
