4 ‘Everywoman” Largest
Dramatic Organization
in the World Today
Theatergoers who have been
misled by managerial pretensions
of alleged New York productions
which are presented by companies
of actors which have never played
the metropolis, with the scenery
and costumes cut down to meet
the “requirements” of “the road,”
will sureiy appreciate the efforts
of Henry W. Savage, the interna
tional producer and manager,
who is sending the big dramatic
spectacle, “Everywoman,” to this
city, where it will be offered at
the Atlanta Theater, matinee and
night, Wednesday, February 19th.
This is the only company pre
senting “Everywoman,” just as >t
was the only company presenting
“Everywoman’ last season. Tie
company is jusi as nearly the same
as it was possible for the 'mana
gerial skill to make it. In a com
pany requiring 37 speaking char
acters it is next to impossible to
keep exactly the same cast from
season to season. Actors are
only human; they die, change
their professions, advance, retro
grade like other human beings.
Yet, as near as possible, the cast
of “Everywoman” is the same this
year as it was last year, and the
same last year as it was the year
before. Some of the original
creators of the various roles are
still playing the characters and
have done so since the opening
performance. She scenic equip
ment is just as elaborate and all
new, and in every way an exact
duplicate of that used at the first
performance'. It is fresh and
spick and span. The costumes
are up to the minute. There has
been no paring in any of the ef
fects to make it easier to handle.
Mr. Savage would permit nothing
of the kind. You will not see a
number two organization playing
“Everywoman.” It is the one and
only company playing anywhere-
The playgoing public have learned
that the name Henry W. Savage
as a sponsor of a theatrical or
musical attraction is an absolute
guarantee of its worth.
Mrs. Smith’s 111 Luck.
Women of the metropolis are in
some instances very curious crea
tures indeed. The street cars oc
casionally furnish striking illustra
tions of this fact. A middle-aged
girl and a girl of girlish age were
seated in a crowded car, chatting
in so loud a tone that at least half
of the passengers could hear them.
“Wasn’t that too bad about poor
Mrs. Smith?” said one of them.
“Why, I haven’t heard of it.
Please tell me,” said the other.
“Oh, haven’t you heard of it?
Why, dear me, I supposed every
body knew of it. You know the
great trouble she had in getting a
divorce from her husband,” said
the one.
“Oh, yes, but she got it, didn’t
she?” asked the other.
“Yes, but she had to pay S4OO
for it.”
“But she ought to be satisfied
with that, hadn’t she?”
“Well, hardly; her husband, just
to show how mean he could be if
lie wanted to, died the week alter
she paid the S4OO, and she had all
her expense and trouble for noth
ing”
Simple Menu.
“You don’t appear to object to
these food restrictions.”
“I don’t see any restrictions
worth mentioning,” replied Mr.
Cumrox. “I have been for years
wishing I could sit down in the
best restaurants and order corn
bread and cabbage and potatoes
right out loud.”
GONE TO HER REWARD.
Mrs. C. C. Fargason Passes Into
the Great Beyond.
In the death of Mrs. C. C. Far
gaspn which occurred in her home
on January 12th, our church
loses one of the most distinguish
ed and best loved leaders, deeply
consecrated, capable and of the
finest spirit; she was peculiarly
endowed for effective leadership.
Her loss will be mourned through
out the whole church. She was
a member of the Baptist church,
but was as loyal to the Methodist
church of her husband as if she
was a member of it.
Since the Woman’s Missionary
Society was organized Mrs. Far
gason had been actively engaged
in some department of its work.
We have counted it a privilege to
have had fellowship with this ser
vant of God during these years,
and we gratefully record the in
spiration she has been in our
lives. We would imitate her vir
tues and strive as she has done
to fulfill the mission to which God
in His providence has called us.
Life will beXimpoverished for
some of us because of her going,
yet we cannot but rejoice with
her that the task ~is done, the
gates are passed and heaven, is
won.
Resolved, That we sympathize
with Mrs. Fargason’s family in
this separation, and that a copy of
this appreciation be forwarded to
the immediate family;
Resolved further, That a copy
of these resolutions be published
in the Henry County Weekly.

Eradicate Scrub Sires.
No state in the Union has made
greater progress in the develop
ment of its livestock business in
the past decade than has been ac
complished in Georgia. In the
past the introduction of better
blood through registered sires has
been taken up largely with the in
dividual farmers. The time has
come when it is felt that systemat
ic livestock improvement can be
taken up on a county union basis.
The Livestock Extension Forces
of the Agricultural College, Athens,
Ga. has worked out an elaborate
detailed plan for eradicating scrub
sires in two counties in each Con
gressional District in the state.
The campaign will be started in
the respective counties selected
with a general big Court House
meeting. At this time a local
committee will be given the details
of the work and community meet
ings will be arranged for through
out the county. Around 20 spe
cialists will be available for the
campaign. With this working
force, farm to-farm canvass can
be made. The farmers will be
asked to pledge themselves to use
and encourage the use of register
ed sires with all classes of live
stock. A market will be found
for the scrub sires now in use and
assistance will be rendered m pur
chasing the needed well-bred sires.
Starts Much Sickness.
A clogging mass of undigested
food that remains fermenting in
the stomach or intestines sends
the poisons it develops through
the entire human body. “Keep

HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH, GEORGIA
Nothing succeeds like success.
This old saying is given an added
meaning by Mr. F. S. Royster,
whose advertisement appears in
another part of this paper, when
he says “I like to think that the
success of the Royster brands of
fertilizer is due to ihe success of
their users; that their growth is
due to the growth of the crops
they fed. lam proud of the suc
cess of my business but am proud
er still of the success of the cus
tomers who made it. The Royster
business has grown under my own
eyes from 250 tons to 400,000 tons
in the 33 years which I have de
voted to it, but the satisfaction in
this growth is nothing compared
to that which I have in the knowl
edge that it is an expression of
the appreciation by my customers
of values given them.”
Mr. Royster wants his custom
ers to know that he still owns and
controls the business and is per
sonally interested in his custom
ers, old and new. He will be glad
to hear from them, with accounts
of their use of the goods or have
them submit for advice any of
their plant-food proolems.

13 Dollars—
-13 Cents
When Swift & Company
paid, say, —13 dollar* per hun
dredweight for live beef cattle
last year, the profit was only
13 cents! In other words, if we
had paid $13.13, we would have
made no profit.
Or, if we had received a
quarter of a cent per pound less
for dressed beef we would have
made no profit.
It is doubtful whether any
other business is run on so close
a margin of profit.
This is bringing the producer
and the* consumer pretty close
together—which should be the
object of any industry turning
raw material into a useful form.
This remarkable showing is due to
enormous volume, perfected facilities
(packing plants strategically located,
branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.),
and an army of men and women
chosen and trained to do their special
work.
This, and many points of
interest, are found in the Swift &
Company Year Book for 1919, just
published which is brought out for the
public as well as for the 25,000 Swift
& Company shareholders.
The Year Book also represents the
packer’s side of the Federal Trade
Commission investigation, upon which
Congress is asked to base action
against the industry.'
Many who have never heard the
packer’s side are sending for the Year
Book.
Would you like one ? Merely mail
your name end address to the Chicago
office and the book will come to you.
