| MASSEE BREAKS I m OLD ALLY ■ Electric Promoter Attacks Ma-1 con Mayor for Holding Stock in Utility Corporations. F MACON, GA., May 23.—A local po- X litlcal bombshell was the declaration ®sl by ' v Jordan Massee that Mayor John I T. Moore is now the largest Macon stockholder In the Central Georgia Pow- S'l Pr Company, the Macon Railway and < I Light Company and allied public utility I corporations. Mr. Massee retired from > I the presidency of these corporations t I two weeks ago, and is promoting a M rival plant. Mayor Moore says that because he I discouraged the project, and would not I Invest in it, Mr. Massee has turned j I against him. As Mr. Massee and the mayor have been political allies for eight years Mr. Massee's attack on Mr. may prove a serious handicap to SL the latter’s chances of re-election. I. Mr. Massee said: WK "I note that the mayor says Macon S can not support two street railway and power companies. If my mind did not .J work any faster than Mr. Moore's I would still be back In Marshallville ■jS' pulling the 'bell cord' over a mule." W Then he’ adds that he did not ask the mayor to Invest in his company, the Georgia Service Corporation, ‘‘because J th' 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 i practically the director of the cam- ■ pa'gn=. ■ • PAT THE THEATER | BIG CROWDS CONTINUE VISITING THE FORSYTH There are so many interesting and genuinely pleasing features on the For syte bill that there are a great many of the theatergoers declaring this week’s program superior to any suc cess the theater has registered in weeks, ami perhaps they are right. At any rate, the attendance has measured to that standard that responds to the big shows the Forsyth presents. "In 1999” is creating much gossip. It is the funniest playlet that has been seen In vaudeville. It is unusual. It k Is original. It deals with what Is to happen when the women folk assume ■ command. The sketch is being splen- ABmmL—gi.iyed by a trio of artists, and has not failed to enlist all interest and win much laughter. <■ Fat, Rooney and Marion Bent have ■ registered a good solid hit and add to I ' the drawing power of the ottering, and pretty Adele Oswold has contributed a if charming personality and a delightful singing act. The other acts are up to the Forsyth standard and thoroughly pleasing. A former Atlanta girl, Wflla Holt. Wakefield, one of the very best known vaudeville stars, will be the headline feature for the coming week. Miss Wakefield numbers her friends among /the hundreds here at home, and there Is a keen interest in her appearance. There are six other acts and every one a feature. , EAGER TO MEET IN AUGUSTA.

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, walk a lot. eschew all hammocks and the first thing you 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 was 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 for 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 trees. “That first pony started me on the way to decent looks,” said Miss Oswold. T rods him until I got some strength and courage and a better view of life. Then I added swimming to the athletic menu. At first I shrank from the water with a horrible fear, but I kept at that until T feel just as much at home at sea now as 1 do upon tho 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 wav of hurrying up the cure and now she's known as one the best (looking> golfers who tear up the pasture land in the vicinage of her Long Island homo. "In winter I have to fall back on dumb bells and boxing.” said Miss Os wold ruefully, "because, you know. I'm on the road most of the time. But in summer I'm wedded to an outdoor training system that starts in the morning when the sun shows and keeps up every minute except for meals And ■ v«n mx nn als I eat mostly out in the .fresh air." THE ATLANTA GEORGLAN AND NEWS: THTRSDAV. 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 b"lng sold and torn away, Mrs. Mary Yancey and Miss Annie Sullivan, her sister, who had nervlly 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.

The Union seminary case which was a sequel of the famous Briggs case, was quick ly disposed of by granting another year’s time in which to endeavor to es tablish amicable relations between the assembly and the seminary. Charges of unorthodox teachings in the graded lessons, and that some of the members of the board of publica tion and Sabbath school work were not orthodox, caused a flurry, but it was quickly settled, after a vehement de ntal of the. charge had been made, by a ruling of Moderator Mark Matthews that such insinuations will not be per mitted before the assembly in the fu ture. The assembly then authorized the appointment of a committee with pow er to withdraw from circulation anv graded lessons found objectionable. Farmer Jim Wilson “Revoked.” The most drastic action the assem bly has taken was the adoption of the resolution which reconsidered the elec tion of Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson as a delegate to the Pan-Pres byterian council In Aberdeen. Scot land, in 1913 because he acted as chair man of the Brewers’ congress In Chi cago last year "in the fact of a mighty protest front the religious forces of our land.” This action of the assembly bars Wilson and makes it necessary for the synod of Baltimore to name another 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 hero Is co-operating with the local branch In getting the 1912 cars thoroughly distributed. Mr. Bradfield Is a former newspaper man 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 he 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 employed by the Cole Motor Company of Indianapolis, his general boosting proclivities for the automobile business are 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 here than anywhere else. "I have been surprised,” he continued, "to find that the newspaper advertising campaigns here, have not been as strong as they should be. I believe in strong campaigns and I think the Southern automobile dealer does too much advertising from purely a pub licity standpoint. By this I mean that he advertises to get the name of his j firm and car before the public. His dis play advertising does not, as a general rule, carry human interest. It does not contain enough arguments—the ar guments which bring people Into the. salesrooms. I realize that the news paper will not actually take an order for a car. But after the newspaper has done Its work with the right kind of copy, it is much easier for the sales organization. The man who comes into the store Interested by the news paper advertising arguments he has 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. GA.. May 23. Augusta has decided to place Immediately in front of the union depot a plaza which will be constructed on the order of the beautiful plazas to be found in many Western cities.

You Need No Money in Atlanta YOUR WORD’S GOOD HERE "Atlanta is an easy mark or else my face is as bland and open as a Water bury watch,” said Vernon Whitworth at the Piedmont hotel today. Mr. Whitworth arrived last night from Kansas City and he says living with out cash seems to be easy here. But perhaps It was his excellent "front which rqade things come easy to him. for the man from K. C. dresses like John Drew in the second act. "I got up late and changed to a new suit, my blue one with the shadow stripes,” remarked Mr. Whitworth to a friend in the lobby. "I was up late last night, and therefore rather absent minded this morning, so I forgot to put my money in the new suit. “I got a shave and a shampoo, a manicure job and a shine In the bar ber shop, and then found I didn't have a red cent in my clothes. I* was em barrassed. " 'That's all right,’ said the head bar ber. 'Bring it down next time you come.' Decides to Beat Way to End. "I thanked him and went out on the street. Then I thought I'd try an ex periment. It was a long elevator ride back to my room so I decided to. see how far I could beat my way. “I went a block down the street and drank a letnon-and-lim< I felt in my pockets, told the man T had forgotten my pocketbook, and h« didn’t turn a halt'. “‘Drop in any old time,’ he said.

Want another nickel?’ Breakfast and Cigar Come Easy. “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 went to breakfast at a Utile Greek restaurant on a side street, just to see how good the game really was. and the only man who seemed to worry was the waiter \<’ho 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.
