OSTEOPATHS BILL
HAVEN’T TIME TO JHARRY,
SAYS EDNA MAY SPOONER
Actress Denies Report That She Will Wed Frank La-
Rue—Says a Husband Would Be in Her Way.
Doesn't Want One, Anyhow.
ENTERTAINS BOYS
AT MELON CUTTING
"I can't spare the time to get mar
ried. With all of the work and study
ing I have to do, a husband would be
In njy why and I wouldn't know what
to do with him.”
And with a musical laugh Miss Edna
May Spooner, the actress who has
made such a hit in Atlanta during the
past few weeks, denied the report that
she Is soon to wed her leading man.
Frank LaRue, Miss Spooner was seen
in her apaftments in the Majestic and
expressed no surprise when Informed
of the report and when asked as to
its correctness.
•just so long as it is mere rumor and is
not a reality, it’s all right.
"You know," she said, as she feigned i
a serious expression, "to get a good ;
husband you’ve got to devote a good j
deal of thought to thd question of mat
rimony. and that's the point that elim- |
inntes me from the matrimonial list. I j
haven't got the time to spare, even If
I wanted a husband. And I haven't
said yet that I want one. And, then, If
I had a husband, he would just be in
the way and would take a lot of my
attention from my work."
This sets at rest a rumor that has
been going the rounds of late that Miss
According to reports, I am the I Spooner was getting ready to wed .
He Also Signed Bill Satur
day For New At
lanta Judge.
Shortly before 10 o’clock Saturday
morning Governor Brown gave his ap
proval to the osteopaths bill, and the
bill creating a new Judge of the su
perior court for Atlanta.
In signing the osteopathic measure,
Governor Brown said he had given due
consideration to both ‘the opposition to
It and those who favored It. He earner
lo the conclusion that It was his duty
to approve the measure, and he did so.
The bill provides for a board of os
teopathic examiners, who shall pass on
ond license all applicants for practice
In this state Just as In the ease of other
recognized branches of medical prac
tlcp.
The Atlanta Judgeship bill would
have had his approval Friday, but there
were two strong reasons against It.
One was that It was Friday, the other
that It was the 13th of the month.
While the governor would not admit
that he was afraid of the "Friday" and
"13” combination, he submitted to any
possible scruples others might have
had and withheld his signature until
Saturday.
Recorder Nash R. Broyles. George
Bell. F.b Williams, Alex Stephens and
Judge J. N. Bateman are applicants
for the place. Governor Brown will
not make the appointment until next
week. He has hot yet signed: the se
cret order bill, and Is holding It for
further Investigation.

she continued to smile, "for every time
I go out with a new leading man. I’m
married. I have now reached the point
when Inexperience no surprise when I
hear I'm married or planning to get
married. In fact, Tve heard it so much
now that I fear I would feel like I had
been deserted or that I was a widow if
I failed to hear I was married. But
