DOUBLE ROW IN
BIG MMOLE
Deacons to Quit Following the
Resignation of Dr. Mac-
Arthur. Pastor.
Continued From Page One.
there is no greater institutional worker
in America.
"We prevailed upon him to make the
sacrifice to come with us, and. of
course, we sent in that report. But
we found when the meeting of the
deacons convened that many other
members of the church had been to Dr.
MacArthur and had prevailed upon him
to stay, so that when our committee re
ported he appeared with a very long
and serious face and told us in effect
that be resented the action of that
committee that had found another to
take his pulpit. But we reminded him
of his refusal to remain and he resent
ed that more than anything else be
fore. and it came about that when a
sub-committee of that pastoral com
mittee waited upon him at the Geor
gian Terrace to toll him that we .had
only done what he had asked us to do.
and that we all loved him so that wo
would be glad to have him stay along
indefinitely—it came about that Dr
MacArthur, old and childish, grew very
wroth and told us then and there that
he wanted no more committees from
that church to come waiting on him;
that ho was tired of the effort being
made to unseat him and that he didn t
want V> see us again."
‘Prescribed Customs
For Tabernacle Pulpit.”
"There were other things he demand
'd that lie should have an assistant;
that other men coming to his pulpit to
preach must wear the black robe he
prescribed for himself; that the con
duct of the church service must be
conformable in every way to his de
sires. Ami when I called his attention
to the fact that he had not been con
formable to the Tabernacle customs
when he came to take the acting pas
torate he showed more spleen than
"Then came another deacons' meet
ing at which he drew a paper from his
pocket and said he was about to read
bis resignation, but the people who
bad prevailed upon him that we were
seeking to oust him. caused him to
change his mind again and so when
he gave out notice that he had been
rut to Ihe quick by the factionalism in
his church and pointed me out as the
ringleader of the movement against
him. 1 with some others—'decided we
should not remain in the church any
more and the resignation followed.
"Finally, of course, came the meet
ing last night. I had already decided
upon my course and so 1 went there
letermim d to make no further opposi
t ion.
Decided Not. To
Oppose Further.
I bait I’f.ir.l that Dr. MacArthur had
said that if even a portion of the peo
ple who hud voted for Dr. Riley should
Mid »h<>« a spirit of dissent he would
hand in his resignation forthwith, de
spite any refusal of the majority of the
huri-11 to accept it. And since 1 knew
that prod.tl.ly a large majority of ipc
congregation would vote to agree to
Dr MacArthur’s stipulations and would
demand that he remain permanently. I
k bad decided that 1 would not raise my
I voice against them.
I "But in thy course of that meeting
' some of Dr MacArthur's friends ini'
mated hard things against the men
they said were 'trying to dictate the
running of the church.' Then I knew
that they meant me, and I arose to de
fend myself. So did some others who
could not consent to sit idle and see the
best work they have done for that
splendid Institution traduced. Finally
1 decided that it were better to leave
the meeting, and I went nut.
"I have nothing further to say con
cerning Dr. MacArthur or his friends'
statements that discord which might
easily have been averted has driven a
sensitive man from the last great work
of his old age.
I agree with all of them that Dr.
MacArthur is a splendid preacher and
a great force in the Baptist church. I
am sorry that this discord has come to
the church I have loved and worked
for so long."
Al the meeting of Baptist clergymen,
deacons and laity to be held tonight
in an effort to bring about a great
denominational appeal for Dr. Mac-
Arthur's retention it is said that tew,
if any. of the opposing faction will be
in attendance.

Listen' You women of the auburn locks i
—you maidens of the Titian tresses! You
can have your pictures taken with their I
true color values now. and your coiffures <
will “come out" just as Roman-godly as
they really are. and not dark brown or I
black.
Experts at the Southern Photographic
show which opened at tly* Auitorium to
day proved this when they took the new I
color photographs with Mrs. I». B Taylor,
of Atlanta, as the model.
Mrs. Ta.\lor rejoices in a crown of sun- ’
set curls which have been the envy of her
friends and the despair of photographers '
Rut under the new color process they J
were shown in all their beauty As soon ’
as Atlanta photographers equip them- 1
selves with the process it is expected that 1
Whitehall street will be thronged by the
woman’s auxiliary of what Kipling called '
“The Red-Beaded League.’’
Six Pretty Girl Models Pose.
Ihe show will continue through next <
Friday, and there are half a dozen girl •
models engaged to aid the experts by ‘
poising for photographs. There will be
full figures and busts, profiles and quar
ter-views*. sodas and sepias, dry plates i
and wet -and the poor girls will be so <
tired before the convention ends that <
they 11 never have another picture made (
in all their lives, unless Charley or Harry 4
just insists on a new one. Rut the
harassed manager in charge of the mod- (
els positively refused to tell their names ,
in advance.
’’Some of them didn’t tell their moth- |
ers they d promised to pose,’’ he said. |
‘Do you want to make me miss the rest j
of the meetings?”
The meetings are being held in Taft ']
hall, but the main auditorium is given
over to displays of photographs and cam- 1
eras and everything which goes to make 1
the sun-pictures which old Daguerre dis- *
covered so long ago. There is every kind 1
of camera, from the button you wear in 1
your lapel to the giant machine of the ,
studio, and every type of picture known ;
to the “artist” of today. i
And the photographer of today is a 1
real artist too. not merely a chemist and
mechanic. Some of the pictures in the
thousands in competition show care in '
posing, a study in light and shadow, an 1
appreciation of curve and line worthy any J
autocrat of the brush who looks with t
scorn on his brother of the camera 1

ing landscapes. To visit the auditorium
this week is to stroll through an art gal
lery. and one which requires no years
of study for appreciation.
There are some big guns of the photo
graphic army here. Elias Goldensky. the
most famous of Philadelphia’s photogra
phers. is one of the lecturers, and has a
wonderful exhibit of studies in artistic
picture-making. Mr. and Mrs. Melvin
Sykes, of Chicago, famous society photog
raphers. are here, and Mrs. Sykes is one
of the principal attractions of the con
vention. She is an unusually handsome
blonde, and what she does not know
about photography would make a small
volume indeed. Her husband declares
that she is really “the works” of the
firm.
Carl E. Akerman. of New York, deliv
ered an address on photographic patents.
W. L Lively, of McMinnville. Tenn.,
president of the Southern School of Pho
tography. is here to lecture on the new
color process which is revolutionizing the
art. and there are others of scarcely less
importance in the world of the camera.
Developed Without Brush.
The color process will be demonstrated
by Mr. Lively and Sydney \V. Whiteman,
of Binghamton, N. Y.. with thirty “auto
chroms" thrown on the screen from col
ored slides, just as they are developed,
and with not a touch of the brush.
“It is the process of Lumiere Ereres,
of France," said Mr. Whiteman, “and the
exhibition will be the first attempt to
put color-photography on a commercial
basis. We expect to teach the Southern
photographer how he may make ’colored
pictures at home. We shall show a whole
day in the home, beginning with the
breakfast tables, with the, fruit and the
flowers, (he meats ano the vegetables, ait
in their natural colors. We shall show
garden scenes, with red roses and yel
low. with flowers of ever) color in one
picture.
“We have not yet reached the z point
where we can print reallj good colored
pictures on paper. So tar we have at
tained onlj the colored slides, suitable
for lantern use. The plates are sensi.
tized with a different coat for every color
»n the spectrum. They must be de
veloped in an absolutely dark room and
timed by a clock, for even a ruby light
will ruin them. Red is one of the most
difficult colors we must deal will), and
for that reason we have selected one
red-haired * model lor our demonstration,
to show how perfectly this color can he
reproduced.
