MORGAN BLAKE &
’‘MICROBE OF LOVE”
Atlanta. Journal’s Sport Writer \ isits
Winder to See “The Microbe of
Love” and Writes Interestingly
of the Flay.
Georgian Terrace, Sept. 23.—T0 Hon.
Pete Phillips, City. My Dear Pete:
Well, Pete, I was up to Winder, Ga.,
Friday, to see a play by local talent
called “The Microbe of Love” which as
the name implies, deals with the regard
and affection that men and women
have entertained, one for the other,
since the Garden of Eden days. In a
nutshell, the plot of the play was that
there were a lot of spinsters in a
town crazy to get married and a club
of bachelors equally determined that
they would not be victims. Well, a
Madame Cupid comes over from Paris
with a large number of "love microbes”
and she hands over same to said spin
sters, who innoculate said bachelors,
and everything turns out all rigid, and
the heroes marry the heroines and we
are led to believe that all live happily
ever afterwards, which we all took with
a grain or two of salt. It is a great
little musical comedy, Pete, with bright
lines, tuneful music and sparkling
comedy situations, as you can imagine.
As for me, Pete, after looking over
the females of Winder, I realized that
no love microbes would have to be
shot into me, because, Pete, if I had
stayed in that city another hour I
would either have been married or vig
orously rejected about eight times. The
material was so plentiful that as fast
as I was rejected I would have pro
posed to another, and kept it up until
I had made the rounds. I have never
seen a city, Pete, where there were
such pretty women and such homely
men. When I tell you that Rhett
Nowell was about the handsomest man
1 saw at Winder, you can imagine how
desperate the situation is for the fe
males of that city, and how crying is
the need for the importing of male tal
ent.
How They Produce Them.
The play was produced last night at
Winder under the auspices of the
Wayne P. Sewell Lyceum and Produc
ing company, which produced the play
20 times on the same night in different
cities of the country. Here’s the way
they work it. Wayne, who is the head
of the company, and a warm and wooly
friend of mine, lias about 30 coaches
for this “Microbe of Love” play. A
city is given to each coach and they are
given ten days in which to select the
cast from local talent and stage the
performance. The coaches are all fe
males and must have three requisites,
talent, charm and beauty.
The way the coaches are selected
follows: Mr. Sewell has scouts out
like a baseball team, and they go
around the minor leagues and send him
large flocks of recruits to the big
leagues. Mr. Sewell then hands them
a questionaire which asks “Are you
married? Are you contemplating ini_
mediate marriage?’’ If the girls an
swer said questions satisfactorily and
over -to a committee or board of cen
sors composed of I and Charley Out
law, who, as experts on women, give
them the final O. K. or rejection. If they
pass this board of censors they are duly
signed and sent out as coaches.
There is only one big trouble in Mr.
Sewells’ life and that is the the fre
quency with which romances and mar
riages develop between the young lady
coaches and the gentlemen of the towns
to which they are sent. There have
been ten marriages in the last year of
his coaches, and I wouldn’t he surpris
ed to hear of another any minute with
one of my best friends involved therein.
Some Rare Talent in Show.
The coach of the Winder show last
night was Miss Thelma Richardson,
of Virginia, who also played the role
of Madame Cupid and knocked every
body dead with her beauty and charm
and ability. The play was staged fine,
the costumes were great and the Win
der cast gave one of the best presenta
tions the play has ever had.
One of the best pieces of acting I
have seen anywhere, either amateur
or professional, was Mrs. Bondurant,
in the role of the deaf spinster. Miss
|Piney Melting Heart. She was a
scream and brought down the house.
Miss Margaret Russell, as Lovie Long,
| was great in her role, and I intend to
enter her next year as the representa_
.tivefrom Georgia in the annual beauty
I contest staged at Atlantic City. I state
purely as an expert on the matter, and
without any other emotions, that Miss
I Russell fakes all the medals for pul
chritude given by the hall of fame. In
my day, Pete, I guess I must have saw
thousands of beautiful women, and I
jhave observed them in an admiring,
but cool and critical manner. But Miss
Russell is the type to make one's eyes
pop out of one’s head, one's breath
come in gasps, and to throw one com
pletely off of one’s equilibrium. I
never knew they grew ’em like that.

“Plain Dick” Russell
Is Finished Scholar.
Newly Elected Chief Justice of Geor
gia Supreme Court Most Picturesque
Character in Southern Politics
By Frank C. Gilreath
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 26. —Hon. Richard
B. Russell, who was elected chief jus
tice of the supreme court of Georgia
in the recent state-wide primary, de
feating Judge W. H. Fish, who has
held the position for twenty years, is
back in Atlanta with his hearty hand
shake and a fund of good stories, for
as a story-teller the judge's reputation
is almost nation-wide.
“Plain Dick” Russell, as he always
prefers to call himself, is perhaps one
of the most picturesque characters in
the politics of the state and the south.
He had been solicitor general of his cir
cuit, judge of the superior court aud
served for ten years on the State Court
of Appeals, being elected when that
court was first created. He developed
a great following in his whirlwind
campaign.
Judge Russell is the father of eight
een children and is a shrewd politician.
One of the strongest cards played by
the Judge's campaign managers was
his endorsement of Mrs. W. H. Felton
of Cartersville. She was a friend of
Judge Russell’s mother. In a state
ment Mrs. Felton said that her girl
contemporary had been a fine French
and German scholar and that she had
transmitted her accomplishments to
Richard Russell, her oldest son.
Now, everybody knew that Dick Rus
sell was a master of strong English.
But no one was prepared to hear that
he was finished in foreign languages.
After Mrs. Felton, old and feeble, re
ceived her degree of Doctor of Letters
at the last commencement of the Uni
versity of Georgia, she was escorted
from the stage in Athens on the arm
of Judge Russell who conducted her
tenderly to her automobile.
Judge Russell is a member of the
board of trustees of the Stat<> Univer
sity. He is President of the Trustees
of the Girls’ Normal and Industrial
College at Milledgeville and is a na
tive of Athens where be lived for many
years. Now he Is a resident of Winder,
which is in Barrow county, but near the
junction of the three counties.
Lewis C. Russell, lawyer, played the
leading man behind the scenes in the
successful campaign of his brother,
Judge Russell. Two things of which Mr.
Russell is especially proud in connec
tion with the campaign are that this
is the first time in a quarter of a cen
tury that a supreme court justice ever
got on that bench without being ap
pointed by the governor.
Tne Voter'* Puzzle.
Isn"*. it passing strange that when
ever two humans aspire to one office
the public mind becomes Impressed
with the fact that one of them Is a
?ang-up patriot and the other Is a
lolfful dolt and a voracious throg
odyte. the only difference of opinion
jelng as to which ts which? —Houston
Chronicle
Miss Dot Roland, as Mrs. Jeremiah
Henpeck, and Miss Margaret Mc-
Whorter, as Sophia Sweetgum, were
fine in their roles.
Among the male performers, Julian
Ross, as Simon Shy, was the outstand
ing star. Julian handled every situa
tion like a master and is hereby award
ed the cut glass fly swatter. .T. B. Par
ham, as the fat bachelor, Very Bold,
got many laughs out of his role. Dick
Russell, as the hero Billy Bachelor,
did nobly.
Well, Pete, if this play is presented
in Atlanta, I would suggest myself in
the role of Billy Bachelor, and Miss
Russell in the role of Madame Cupid
and Charlie Outlaw in the role of Jer
emiah Henpeck.—Morgan Blake In The

It seems now to be a pretty well established fact that
a railroad train running at high speed can wreck an
auto driven onto the track immediately in front of it.
For some years there were grave doubts in the matter,
but many experiments made by experts have convinced
all profound students of immovable objects and irresis
tible force that the long-scouted theory is really true. It
has cost many lives to establish this great fact in phy
sical science, but think how many white men died to let
the black man eat in a caffeteria. Every step of prog
ress has its price in human sacrifice. Then the world
war and the high tariff have raised prices, and it cost
more to make experiments than it used to, and having
abolished war and capital punishment, it may be neces
sary to keep up the railroad-crossing casualties ’til birth
control is more scientifically established.
But when it comes to furnishing the home, the place
that should be the most attractive place on earth, SAY
we are back to pre-war prices, we have some real val
ues in living-room suites, Bed-Room suites, and about
twenty Hoosier Kitchen Cabinets that we are offering
at less than wholesale price ON TO-DAYS Market.
Now listen, furniture will not be any cheaper, in
fact, has already advanced, and if GLASS keeps going
up, furniture of course will have to advance again, BUT
we are selling everything on to-day’s market, and sev
eral items below the factory prices.
So don’t wait for cheaper prices (for they won’t
come) and come around to the old reliable furniture
house and see how glad we are to wait on you, and
PLEASE you, too.
Yours to serve,
