MASSEE BREAKS WITHOLBALLY Electric Promoter Attacks Ma con Mayor for Holding Stock , in Utility Corporations. MACON, GA.. May 23.—A local po litical bombshell was the declaration by W. Jordan Massee that Mayor John T. Moore is now the largeet Macon stockholder in the Central Georgia Pow er Company, the Macon Railway and Light Company and allied public utility corporations. Mr. Massee retired from the presidency of these corporations two weeks ago, and is promoting a rival plant. Mayor Moore says that because he discouraged the project and would not invest in it. Mr. Massee has turned against him. As Mr. Massee and the mayor have been political allies for eight years Mr. Masses's attack on Mr. Moore may prove a serious handicap to the latter's chances of re-election. Mr. Massee eaid: “I note that the mayor says Macon can not support two street railway and power companies. If my mind did not work any faster than Mr. Moore’s I would still be back In Marshallville pulling the "bell cord’ over a mule." Then he adds that he did not ask the mayor to invest in his company, the Georgia Service Corporation, "because the mayor is the largest local stock holder in the present corporations." In Mr. Moore’s three races for the mayoralty Mr. Massee was the largest subscriber to the campaign fund,' and practically the director of the cam paigns.

Easy to Bring Bloom to Your Faded Cheeks. Says Adele Oswold. All you’ve got to do to get pretty is to take all the outdoor exercise you can find. Get up early, ride a horse, golf a lot. swim a lot, w’alk a lot, eschew all hammocks and the first thing y ou know the bloom on your cheeks will be per fectly gorgeous and your general all round pulchritude will be a matter of newspaper note. Now, there w r as Adele Oswold, the actress, who's playing at the Forsyth. She says herself that she was a back ward, sickly' child with no more beauty than a hedge fence sports when her parents took a doctor’s advice and bought her a pony. She couldn't get up courage to mount the pony so: many weeks, though that horse was so tame that it lay down to eat grass. Now- Miss Oswold rides a Texas bred pony, whose principal ambition Is to climb up tree«. "That first pony started nje on the w’ay“‘to decent looks,” said Miss Oswold. “I rode him until I got some strength and courage and a better view of life. Then I added swimming to the athletic menu. At first 1 shrank from the water with a horrible fear, but I kept at that until I feel just as much at home at sea now as I do upon the land.” It takes a while, of course, to get the athletic habit and in spite of the fact that she was growing beauteous Miss Oswold admits that very often she’d have an awful time downing her incli nation to cut short the swim and sub stitute the hammock. But she downed it. She even tackled golf by w-ay of hurrying up the cure and now she’s known as one the best (looking) golfer.-, who tear up the pasture land in the vicinage of her Long Island r.oine. "In winter I have to fall back on dumb bells and boxing.” Miss Os wold ruefully, “because, you know. I'm on the road most of the -time. Bu l in summer I'm wedded to an outdoor training system that starts in the morning when the sun shows ami keeps up every minute except for rmals And even, my meals 1 cal mostly out in th.' fresh air.” THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS: THURSDAY. MAY 23. 1912. Women Give Up Fight To Save Their Home Being Taken by Law Realizing that they had finally lost in the battle to prevent their old home place at 287 Decatur street from being sold and torn away, Mrs. Mary Yancey and Miss Annie Sullivan, her sister, who had nervily stood guard on the prem ises, have removed their belongings from the street, where they had lain since the women were dispossessed on Saturday by the sheriff. With tears in their eyes, the two sis ters loaded their dust-covered furnish ing into two wagons and left the scene, while a force of workmen demolished the last vestige of the old pioneer Sulli van home. The sisters have rented rooms in a house in Fortress avenue. Mrs. Yancey still declares her deter mination to institute, legal proceedings in an effort to recover the property.

LOUISVILLE, KY„ May 23 - That the general assembly of the Presbyte rian church will come to a close with out any heresy charge* being brought to the front seems certain. The Union seminary case, which was a sequel of the famous Briggs ease, was quick ly disposed of by granting another year’s time in which to endeavor to es tablish amicable relation.- between the assembly and the seminarv. Charges of unorthodox teachings in the graded lessons, and that some of the members of the board of publica ’ lion and Sabbath school work were not I orthodox, caused a flurry, but it was I quickly settled, after a vehement de | nial of the charge had been made. by a ruling of Moderator Mark Matthews that such insinuations w ill not be per mitted before the assembly in the fu ture. The assembly then authorized the appointment of a committee w ith pow - er to withdraw from circulation ant graded lessons found objectionable. Farmer Jim Wilson "Revoked." The most drastic ‘action the assem bly ha< taken was the adoption of the - resolution which reconsidered the elec i tion of Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson as a delegate to the Pan-Pres I bytetian council in Aberdeen. Scot-, j land, in 1913 because he acted as chalr- I man of the Brewers' congress in <'hl i < ago last year "in the fact of a mighty , protest from the religious farces of out I land." This action of the li-semb!y i bars Wilson and makes it necessary sot I the synod of Baltimore to name another I in his place. COLE MOTOR CAR CO. ADVERTISING EXPERT IS HERE ON BUSINESS H. C. Bradfield/, of the advertising force of the Cole Motor Car Company, is in Atlanta on business for his con cern, and while here is co-operating with the local branch in getting the 1912 ears thoroughly distributed. Mr. Bradfield is a former newspaper num and was In the Hearst service in Boston and New York. He was also connected with the Associated Press before joining the Cole forces. Recent ly ho has been making a trip over the South pointing out to automobile deal ers the importance of newspaper ad vertising from the standpoint of getting good, consistent results. Notwith standing the fact that Mr. Bradfield is eutployed by the Cole Motor Company of Indianapolis, his general boosting proclivities for the automobile business jure recognized from coast to coast. Business Conditions Good. in speaking of the existing conditions in the South in the automobile line. Mr. Bradfield pointed out that business is better lure than anywhere else. "I hav< been surprised." he continued, "to find that the-iiewspaperadvert ising campaigns he~< have not been as strong as they should be. I believe it, strong campaigns and 1 think the Southern automobile dealer does too much advertising from purely a pub licity standpoint. By this 1 mean that he advertises to get the name of bis I firm and ear before the public. His dis play advertising does not, as a general rule, carry human interest. It does not contain enough argum nts —the ar guments which bring people into the salesrooms. 1 realize that the news paper will not actually take an order for a ear. But after the newspaper has .lone its work with the right kind of cop'., it is much easier for the sales organization. The man who comes into the store interested by 1 lie news paper advertis.ng arguments he lias read is much easier to sell, providing salesmen have confidence in their product and the values they are offer ing are honest.” AUGUSTA MAKING PROGRESS TOWARD “CITY BEAUTIFUL” AUGUSTA.

Then I thought I'd try an ex periment. It was a long elevator ride back to my room, so 1 decided to sei how far I could beat my way. ”1 went a block down the street and drank a lemon-and-llme. I felt in my pockets, told the man I had forgotten my pocketbook, and he didn't turn a hair. " 'Drop in any old time,’ he said. I thanked him. and boarded a trolley car. "When the conductor came by I mad. another bluff. I couldn’t find a sou in my jeans.

"I bought a cigar at a stand three blocks out and the clerk told me to drop in any old day and leave the dime. I wept to breakfast at a little Greek restaurant on a side street, just to see iiow good the game really was. and the only man who seemed to worry was the waiter who didn’t get a tip. The pro-" prietor told me to send him the 40 cents or drop in for another meal when I felt like it. "Thai’s as far as 1 went, but I'm tempted to order three suits of clothes, buy an automobile and a couple of dia monds and then duck.

When I asked him his name he said it didn't matter a darn, as he wouldn't take his nickel back anyway. "1 don't know whether it was my honest countenance or just the ppwer of a clean collar and a well pressed suit, but anyway it was easy.
