Insects Suffer as Much as Animals, Says Expert
BE KIND TO THE SKEETER!
Ihe city s official mosquito farm is
doing a rushing business this week. No,
we re not referring to that dirty back
yard of your next-door neighbor's. We’re
speaking of Dr. Claude Smith's exhibit in
the city hall, right by the east entrance.
Dr. Smith, city bacteriologist, and Dan
Carey, park manager, had an interesting
discussion on cruelty to animals, anlnial
culae and insectivora,. arising from the
mosquito incubator outfit. Dr. Smith be
gan operations at the exhibit by placing a
tumbler of water under a glass cover.
In twenty-four hours little mosquitoes be
gan to hatch from eggs which had been
laid in the water. They flew up to the
glass dome and sunned themselves
against Its surface, drawing an admiring
throng that wondered how such diminu
tive pests could possess such power of
song and sting.
''Claude, I’m going to have you pinched
for cruelty to animals," said Mr. Carey.
"You re hatching out mosquitoes and
failing to feed them.”
“Waiving the obvious point that mos
quitoes are not animals, Dan," returned
the expert, “I’ll admit you are right. But
if you’re really so tender-hearted I’ll open

“MISS” TO BE REFUSED

"But, seriously, this 'cruelty to ani

continued the bacteriologist. "If you saw
a man beating his horse or mule, you’d
call a eop If you saw him abusing a
cow or a cat or a dog, you'd want to lick
him or have him arrested
“But when cruelty goes further down
in the animal kingdom nobody seems to

how many bugs fly into your gas light
and burn to death, except that they in

whole nation is resounding with shouts of

“Perhaps it’s because the little fel

and are too small to struggle. But the
tiny fly has just as much capacity for
suffering as the elephant.”
“It hadn’t struck me that way before,"
said Mr. Carey. “Next time I desire to
smash a mosquito. I’ll restrain myself,
coax him into confidence with a lump of
sugar and administer chloroform before
I electrocute him.” .
AT THE THEATERS
WELL-KNOWN ACTOR
INVENTS NEW NOVELTY
In the sober, villainous face of the
average stage heavy man there is little
humor. His chief aim is to give a clever
portrayal of a character that will cause
the listeners to have a silent contempt
for the part portrayed.
Tire average theatergoer, when witness
ing a performance, will sometimes remark
the scowl and the frown on the features
of the heavy man. and were he to meet
the same man on the street he would
be surprised to find, instead of a sour
vlsaged, silent person, that he was a
jolly and good-jiatured chap, who was
perhaps as light-hearted as the hero of
the play witnessed.
That such actors sometimes possess a
hidden vein of real humor was proven a
few days ago when John Nicholson, the
popular character actor, succeeded in pat
enting one of the greatest novelties ever
invented.
Mr. Nichoteon, who is quite a genius,
has just completed a little novelty called
“The Doll With Forty Faces." This fun
ny little creature is made of wood and
paper, with the head on a revolving axis
and the eyes and piouth on a revolving
disc.
At every turn or revolution of the head
the expression of the eyes and mouth
change and the expressions are simply
wonderful
Mr. Nicholson is at present playing the
role of Lord Everlow in the big human
interest play, “The Call of the Heart."
at the Lyric, a play that touches the
heart and grips the emotions.
ROSE OF KILDARE
DELIGHTS LARGE AUDIENCE
Like a breath from “the ould sod" was
Fiske O’Hara and Gladys Wynne in "The
Rose of Kildare” at the Atlanta last
night. Th* play Is decidedly romantic
and Mr. O'Hara never appeared to a bet
ter advantage than he did in the role of
Gerald O’Donnell, the Irish patriot.
The scene Is laid among the madcap
gentry of the eighteenth century and tilled
to overflowing with wit and typical Irish
gallantry, while the play itself is calcu
lated to delight the heart of every lover wf
beautiful sentiment.
During the play Mr. O’Hara’s fine tenor
Voice is heard to an advantage in several
beautiful numbers written especially for
him. among which are "Pictures in the
Firelight,” "There's Only One Ireland,"
"The Rose of Kildare" and "I Adore
Thee."
The great regret to be felt in regard to
the play is, that by playing only one date
In Atlanta, many patrons of the theater
will miss seeing one of the brightest and
most interesting plays of the season.
LYRIC’S OFFERING THIS WEEK
IS ONE OF SEASON’S BEST
"The Call of the Heart" is one of the
most thorough!}’ enjoyable attractions
that has ever played the Lyric. While the
play might be classed as an emotional
drama, in which the tragic problems of
life are discussed, there is plenty of com
edy and a love story that can not help
but appeal to all classes and every age.
The usual matinees on Thursday and
Saturday bid fair to draw capacity houses.

“Madame X” will be the attraction at
the Lyric next week
It is without doubt the greatest dra

taught in its unfolding is thought of for
many a day after witnessing It.

WORD “CADET” IS:
TO BE DROPPED
Jane Addams Promises to Heed
Military Men’s Protest Rela
tive to Misuse of Term.
COLUMBIA, MO.. Oct. 17.—The word
“cadet" no longer will be applied to
men in the underworld.
This is the promise of Miss Jane Ad
dams, lhe noted sociologist, to Lieu
tenant Ellery Farmer, of Columbia,
commandant of cadets in the Missouri
State Military school at the University
of Missouri.
Lieutenant Farmer wrote to Miss Ad
dams. telling her the word cadet was
used in a respectable sense by military
men. He said the graduates of the
United States Military academy at West
Point are cadets and that the students
at military schools throughout the
country have the same title.
He asked Miss Addams if she would
discontinue the use of the word, so it
could be saved to good usage.
“Military men do not want to use the
word cadet," he told her, “when It Is
also used in the terminology of the
white slave traffic."
Miss Addams has omitted the word in
her new book on the social evil, and it
is believed writers on sociological sub
jects will not again use the word.
Observers of the white slave traffic
are not agreed on a substitute word,
but it is probably some distinctive term
will be adopted. The word "tnaquer
*aux” has been used by some
