of a probation system, similar to the
system already in vogue for drunkards
ind other classes of male offenders, and
for the establishment of a county ,dc
■entlon home for women offenders.
Marion Jackson, one qf the leaders in
the Men and Religion movement, held a
lengthy conference with chief Beavers
at the police station and laid before him
the complete plan, the details of which

Judge Broyles already has ex pressed
himself as favoring the plan, it is un

that the new system will become ef

Jackson Explains Plan.
The courts already are co-operating
with the Men and Religion movement
in their efforts to reclaim fallen worn

.move is expected to prove one of th<
greatest steps in the general plan of
reformation.
"The whole Idea," said Mr. Jackson to
;i Georgian reporter following the con

U substantial chance to redeem them
selves.
"There is one class of women with
whom we w ill have no difficulty in han

"If the probationer fails to make

for this reason will urge the county to
establish a detention home, exclusively

Mr. Jackson Is confident that, with
the spirit of co-operation already dis

this will mean the last link in a com

The play is a creditable show and has
been pleasing the audiences which have
seen it.
MISS POYNTER TO PRESENT
"LENA RIVERS” TOMORROW
"A Kentucky Romance," with Miss
Beulah Poynter in the star role, is prov
ing one of the most pleasing attractions
■.f the season at the Lyric. Mias I’oyn
ten's work as Cynthia, the poor girl, Is
| e specially good. Stanhope Wheatcroft in
the part of Lee Jameson also deserves
especial mention for his clever work.
Miss Poynter will repeat "The Ken
tucky Romance'’ tonight, and will change

MAUDE ADAMS IN "PETER PAN”
VISITS THE ATLANTA TOMORROW
The tour of Maude Adams in the J. M.
Barrie play. "Peter Pan," in which the
actress is to be seen at the Atlanta begin
ning tomorrow is one of the longest that
she has ever undertaken. As arranged
by Charles Frohman this tour will be a
trans-continental one and will take in
more cities than the actress has ever be
fore visited in one season. Strange as it
may seem there are a great many big
cities throughout the country which have
never been visited by Miss Adams. Her
long engagements in New York each sea
son and her lengthy stays In Chicago.
Boston and Philadelphia have prevented
her from making extended tours that em
braced any but the largest cities. There
are many cities on the present tour which
Miss Adams Is visiting for the first time.
EMMA BUNTING IS MAKING
GREAT HIT IN "TWO ORPHANS”
"The Two Orphans" is one of the great
est plays that theatrical history has re
corded and the story is being beautifully
told at the Forsyth this week to the
largest audiences that have been attract
ed to the theater since Emma Bunting
and the winter stock company was in
troduced. Everything has been done In
a two-dollar fashion and In most of the
productions the theatergoers have re
ceiver! better value than some of the
traveling presentations. Miss Bunting’s
ability to play most any part has been
thoroughly proven. She is popular In At
lanta and has a following that is made
up of most representative people in all
the city.
Following "The Two Orphans,” the bill
for net week will be "Merely Mary Ann.”
This play has an unusual attractiveness
and will closely crowd the attendance
record that is .being made this week. ■»
FEATURE BILL AT GRAND IS
DRAWING BIG AUDIENCES
There is keen interest in the bill at the
Grand this week and the theater is being
crowded at every performance. A de
mand is being made for seats for all fu
ture performances that means a record is
going to be set up.
In announcing.this bill the management
suggested that the speed clutch had been
thrown in arid that the shows at the
Grand in the future would be of the very
highest caliber that Keith could furnish.
And no declaration has ever been better
made good. Front the very opening right
on through a group of clever acts to the
finish there is not one wasted moment,
not a single thing that does not arrest
and hold interest.
The splendid play presented by a Dan
iel Frohman company, called "Detective
Keen.” is the best playlet that has been
seen in vaudeville and there is no better
singer and dancer In the world than the
famous minstrel star, Eddie Leonard. All
the other acts are of excellent quality and
a great show’ results.
SOUTH URGED TO
KEEP UP GOOD
HIGHWAYS
Road Builders, Gathered Here
for Convention. Are Great
'‘My Town” Boosters.
The most enthusiastic, if not the
largest, assemblage of "my’ town”
boosters Atlanta has held in many
moons opened its first session at the
Piedmont hotel today, when the South
ren Appalachian Good Roads associa
tion began its two-day meeting. Such
armfuls of home town literature, pho
tographs of roads before and after tak
ing old Dr. Macadam’s famous mixture
and books full of statistics on popula
tion, taxation and education were
never gathered together before. There
were about 50 delegates from most of
the Southeastern states present, and
Atlanta welcomed them individually
and collectively. ,
Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt, state geolo
gist of North Carolina and president of
the association, got down to brass tacks
early in the meeting when he said:
“The biggest need of the South in
road work is keeping up good roads
after we have built them. There Isn’t
any such thing as a permanent road.
They must all be watched and protected
and repaired.
Have Money and Knowledge.
“We have the knowledge now and in
most sections we have the money. For
merly we had neither. Then, when we
got the mopey, we spent it wastefully
because we didn’t know how to build.
We are getting over that. We must
next learn to keep the roads in the right
condition after they are built.”
The first arrival today and one of the
most prominent among the boosters
was Colonel Sandy Cohen, erstwhile of
Augusta, Atlanta, Knoxville and all
connecting points, who has managed
nine expositions and received a vote of
thanks for each. He is now general
manager and principal promoter of the
Greater Western North Carolina Good
Roads association, which takes in seven
counties and is bigger than its name,
according to Colonel Cohen. The colo
nel came down In the only frock coat
in the convention to insist on its com
ing to Asheville next year and also to
boost an endurance automobile run
from Atlanta to Henderson, N. C., next
spring. W. E. Breese, president of his
association, is helping him boost the
two enterprises.
Charley C. Gilbert, assistant secre
tary of the Nashville Board of Trade,
came over to make a talk on good roads
and see whether Atlanta were really a
live town or merely’ the hot air burg
Nashville has called it for the past
twenty years. He left the convention
to take a rubber at the skyscrapers, lost
his way and had to be guided back to
the hotel. Wilbur Nelson, assistant
state geologist of Tennessee, came over
with a bunch of pictures of good roads
around Nashville and a mass of infor
mation on road building materials. Sev
eral members of the University’ of
Georgia faculty and a number of ex
perts from other institutions are among
the delegates.
Senator Bourne to Speak.
Senator Jonathan Bourne, of Oregon;
Governor Ben W. Hooper, of Tennes
see; Governor W. H. Mann, of Virginia,
and Governor Emmett O'Neal, of Ala
bama., are on the program for ad
dresses, but they had not arrived when
the afternoon trains came in, though
they are expected later. Governor
Brown, of Georgia, did not arrive in
time for his scheduled address of wel
come. but sent word he would show up
to greet the visitors some time during
the day.
Judge John S. Candler, acting mayor,
welcomed the visitors to Atlanta with
a brief address, in which he called at
tention to the 5,000 ’patriotic citizens of
Georgia, who are doing physical work
on good roads, even though they do It
Involuntarily. He promised the visitors
a sight of the best roads in Fulton
county that they could find In any old
county or state.
"We began our system of road work
in Fulton fifteen years ago,” he said.
"That year the taxable values were
$51,0099.000. in 1912 they showed
$120,000,000. and 1 believe the good
roads and our sewer system were re
sponsible for a large share of the in
crease.”
To Tour Fulton County.
S. B. Turman welcomed the visitors
for the county commissioners, and Wil
mer L. Moore for tiie Chamber of Com
merce. Responses were made by Pres
ident Pratt and a half dozen delegates
from various states
The convention got down to business
I at its afternoon session, discussing re-
I ports on road work in the various
states in the association. Several good
! roads associations were represented by
j special delegates. The reports Indi-
I eated that more work had been done on
I Southern highways in the past twelve
| months than in any year in history, and
I that even more work is planned for
; 1913.
Senator Bourne is announced for an
I address tonight at 7:3<> o'clock. To-
I morrow morning will be devoted to an
j automobile tour of county roads and
| .mother business session will be held in
| the afternoon.

BRYAN TO BERMUDA
TO ADVISE WILSON
ON FUTURE POLICY
HAMILTON, BERMUDA, Nov. 20. —
The forthcoming visit of William Jen
nings Bryan to President-elect Wilson
is expected to have a marked influence
upon the next national administration
in the United States.
That Mr. Bryan is coming to discuss
possible future government policies is
unquestioned, and it will not come as a
surprise if Mr. Bryan himself accepts
the portfolio of secretary of state and
also helps select the other members of
the cabinet.
When Mr. Wilson was told this aft
ernoon that Mr. Bryan was reported to
be coming here in response to a direct
summons from the president-elect, he
said:
"I have not summoned Mr. Bryan or
any one else.”
The governor and his family took a
long drive over the island this forenoon.
There is a possibility that the presi
dent-elect may cut short his visit here
and go away to avoid the social whirl
into which he is being drawn against
his will. Although it was the expressed
wish of Governor Wilson "that he be
let alone” during his stay here so that
he might get a real rest, invitations are
pouring in upon him and it now seems
improbable for the governor to escape
a great state the governor
of Bermuda, Lieutenant General Sir
George M. Bullock, is said to-be plan
ning in his honor.
