crats merely' held their own in Ver
mont it was encouraging, but xvhen
they make a gain of between 20 and
i 30 per cent, as they did yesterday, you
lean bo sure it means business.
"it is encouraging also to note tli?t
the third party ticket did not draw
any votes from the Democrats. The
' third party strength Iris evidently come
from the Republicans.''
Smith Candidacy Amusing.
The governor seemed to be, amused
|ox . r the candidacy of James Smith,
Jr., for t’nited States senator from
Nexv Jersey, but confined his comment
:on the Smith candidacy to a broad
i .grin. When Smith's declaration of be
i lief in progressiveness was read to
. i the governor, he actually laughed.
I When asked to sax what he and his
; I friends purposed doing about Smith's
candidacy, he said:
' "That situation xxill take care of it
. self."
; The governor will have something to
say on this subject when he considers
the time opportune. Smith, of Course,
xxill be vigorously opposed. The fight
against him undoubtedly xvill be led by
the governor iilmself.

Hotel Clerks Discuss Dead Beats and Kickers
GLAD-HAND BOYS IN TOWN
The Southeastern Greeters, otherwise
known as the "Glad Hand Boys." are
in Atlanta today to talk of hours and
salaries, of tips and dead beats, of
rooms with baths and best ways to
make a man happy at $5 a day when
he wanted -a $2 room. The Greeters
are the hotel clerks of seven Southeast
ern states. There are 75 in the or
ganization, but only 30 could leave
their registers for the second annual
convention.
They had breakfast at the Imperial
hotel, with Fred Hauser, general sec
retary of everything in the hotel busi
ness, as guide, entertainer and general
•'ask me" man. They held a business
meeting at the Piedmont, took motors
to . Kimballville farm at noon,, sur
tounded a barbecue therg and returned
for a special matinee at the Forsyth.
7 hey will be given a banquet at the
Piedmont tonight with E. P. Dutton
u.s.the host.
They’re a rather live and knowing
bunch ol fellows, these men behind the
registers even if tMtey do have away
of looking at you as though wonder
ing what house you travel for and how
much .your expense account will stand.
But there are few old-timers among
them. There wasn't in the whole, bunch
one of those nineteen-carat diamonds
which used to be the badge of the
hotel clerk and the principal output of
Die idate-glass factories,.
Old-Time Clerk Passing.
;. AV. G. Poole, mam greeter of the old
Brown• house, at Macon, and first presi
dent of the organization, discussed
.Xrovcieis and hotels while waiting for
the Kimballville motor catis.
"The o-ld-time clerk is passing," hfe
said. "A QU don’t see so many of the
old fellows who know every guest who
< ver came to the desk, called him by
his first name and gave him the.same
.room vein- after year. The personal
element still is strong in the hotel busi
ness; but travelers demand more serv
ice now and less jollying
"The hardest man to please? Why,
the fellow who hasn't been 'ten miles
I'nway from home before. The'ojditiav
•tders are no, trouble They’ll akk for
vb-ut they want, and if you haven't
■gpt it they'll take the next best. But
the. gink from Slabtown off to see the
sights raises a kick before he’s dipped
'the pen in the ink. makes a holler if
the Avail paper is the wrong shade of
pink, and, causes a clerk more gray

"Sure, it's easy to size up a man. A

FLEES HUSBAND
AND IS PINCHED
Mrs. Nora Medley Declares Her
Father Sanctioned Beating
Given Her by Spouse.
"My father had me arrested because
I refused to live with my husband. I
left my husband Sunday after he beat
me Saturday night. My father said.my
husband ought to have beat me, and
said lie would whip me himself if I
didn't go back."
Mrs. Nora Medley, who lives in El
liott street near North avenue, today
gave this explanation as to why she
is held prisoner in the matron’s ward
at the police station. She was taken
into custody last night at the home of
a friend, near her own home, where
she had been stopping since the separa
tion Sunday.
Mrs. Medley has two small girls, who
are now in possession of their father,
she says.
“But I’m going to court and take
them away from him,” she exclaimed.
"He shall not keep them. And I don't
intend to live with him any more,
either."
Mrs. Medley has been married four
years, tier husband is Ed L. Medley.

arrest here. The girl is evidently an
incorrigible. She says she ran away
from her home in Cincinnati two years
ago. She traveled ten months witli a
circus, which was her only opportunity
for developing het theatrical aspira
tions.
The girl's mother then found her
and sent her to an institution for way
ward girls. She escaped from the home
and made her way to Columbia. S, C.,
wite/e her behavior was such that she
was given a few hours In which to
leave town. Here she fell in with a
crowd of sailors, who fitted her out
with men's clothing and turned her
loose on the streets, after she had her
long hair cut off.
STORM OVERTURNS AUTO:
FOUR OCCUPANTS HURT
GENEVA. N. Y.. Sept. 4. —Thousands]
of dollars damage was done by a storm
of tornado-like violence which passed
over this section. Apple trees were
torn out by the toots, a school house
was demolished, roofs were torn from
buildings and telephone and telegraph
lines put out of commission.
An automobile was caught tn the I
storm and turned turtle. The four I
oevirpants were hurried to the city hos

hotel clerk, not an imitation—can take
a look at a man as he comes in the
door, size r- his roil and his disposj.
tion and know whether he wants
$1.50 on the air shafts or a suite with
bath overlooking the lawn. No. it isn t
his clothes. 1 couldn’t say just wha
It is. But it's there. We don't often
make mistakes.
Tipping Hurts the Hotel.
"rips? Now. why do you reporters
always start the tip question? But I I
tell you something you didn't knov .
perhaps. The hotel men wish there
wasn’t any such thing as a tip. w,
pay our help, at least we do in the
South, and there’s no real reason for
tipping.
111 tell you why hotel men don’t
like it. Suppose you go into lunch and
order a 75-cent steak and slip the wm
ter a quarter tip. He's likely to bring
you a $1 or $1.25 steak for 75 cent
and the hotel loses the difference and
you get more than you pay for. Ami
besides that, if a waiter or a bell boy
gives you more service than you're en
titled to it means some other guest
who didn’t tip gets less than is com
ing to him and he goes away with a
grouch on the hotel.
“Yes, the spring crop of brides and
kroorns has been about up to the
average—perhaps a little better. And
say. they’re the easy folk to pleas,.
They never kick on anything, for they
don’t see anything but each other. I
can spot them at' a glance, and I al
ways give them the best in the house
and tell the bell hops not to bother
them. The man-just-married will
usually take the best and pay for it
whether he can afford it or not and
you can’t blame him. Naturally. a m,L
wants to make a good showing even
if it can't last. No. I'm not a’ ma:-
ried man. but I can sympathize with
them."
One of the principal objects of the
American Greeters, of which the Soutn.
eastern association is a part, is to ....
operate in catching and getting rid of
hotel dead beats, those well-dress i
travelers who leave a trail of had
checks and bum drafts behind them
They swap descriptions of such gen

signatures and help the hotel propro L
