(Former Atlanta Girl,
Now Bride of Aviator,
Stops His Flying Game
Lieutenant Elly son, Navy Aero
naut, Accepts Edict of Helen
Mildred Glenn.
RICHMOND, VA„ Nov, 23.—Lieuten
ant Theodore G. Eliyson, in charge of
the navy aviation station at Annapolis,
will have to quit fiyijg and come down
to the more material things of earth
and water. Such is the edict of his
bride, who was Miss Helen Mildred
Glenn, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
Thomas Glenn, formerly of Atlanta,
now of New York, whom he married
in Washington Friday of last week.
It develops that Miss Glenn imparted
the substance of this edict to one of the
guests at the Crenshaw-Robins wed
ding in this city several weeks ago. On
that occasion she was one of the
bridesmaids, while Lieutenant Eliyson
figured in the role of a groomsman.
Although the two were practically
inseparable at the reception, following
the ceremony at fashionable St. Pauls
Episcopal church, there were few who
guessed they were to be married so
soon themselves.
According to the law.laid down by
the young aviator's bride, he must
echew the role of birdman within a
year’s time, or stand the consequences.
In fact, it is said that a promise to this
effect was exacted of him before Miss
Glenn agreed to become his bride.
Lieutenant Eliyson is a son of Mr.
and Mrs. H. Theodore Eliyson. of Rich
mond, and is a nephew of Lieutenant
Governor J. Taylor Eliyson. Before
he was promoted to his present aerial
position he was regarded as an expert
and authority on submarine matters
and devoted most of his time to things
underneath the water.
CORN SHOW PARADE
MAY AWAIT RETURN
OF THE GOVERNOR
If Governor Brown can arrange to
get back to Atlanta from the governors
conference in Richmond by noon of De
cember 6, it is likely that the proposed
big parade of the state boys corn clubs
will be postponed from December 5 to
the next day.
The managers of the big corn club
convention are anxious that the gov
ernor appear, with ills staff, In the pa
rade, and the governor is quite as anx
ious to show his appreciation and ap
proval of the corn club movement by
being on hand, if possible.
The governors conference in Rich
mond will adjourn on the evening of
December 6, and Governor Brown hopes
that lie may be able to get away from
that city in time to reach Atlanta the
next morning. He is making the nec
essary inquiries now, and he thinks the
matter may be arranged.

To Strike at Belgrade.
In the event of war between Austria
and Servla, the Austrian plan of cam
paign would probably be to mass an
army near Temesvar in Hungary from
which point Belgrade could easily be
reached.
Telegrams from Balkan points indi

Balkan program drawn up before the
Balkan war broke out.
The bulk of the reserve Servian army
is being held near the Servian frontier

Danube are being strengthened. A re
port was received here today that M.
Prochaska. the Austrian consul in
Prisrend, had been killed by Servian
soldiers, but there were no official facts
to supoprt this.

Turks Confident
Tide Has Turned
CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov. 23.—Al
though the bombardment of the works
along the Chatalja lines by the Bul
garians continues, a belief is growing
here that the Bulgars have temporarily
abandoned the Idea of taking the forts
by storm and will hold this city under
siege while peace is effected.
Encouraged by reports from Sofia
that the Bulgarian cabinet is drawing
up modified peace demands for the
porte and by the abandonment for the
time being of offensive operations at
Chatalja by the Bulgars, the Turks are
boasting that the war watch is aboui
to swing.
The distant thunder of the heavy Bul
garian siege guns could be distin
guished from the Pera suburbs today,
but'later dispatches from Nazim Pasha,
the Turkish commander-in-chief and
minister of war, stated that no Bul
garian or Servian .infantry was en
gaged.
Dardanelles Safe.
Government officials profess no fears
over the apparent aim of the Balkan
allies to seize the Dardanelles. From
the Aegean sea to the sea of Marmora,
the Dardanelles strait is filled with
mines and it is guarded by supposedly
Impregnable forts upon the Asiatic as
well as the European side.
Turkish reserves were sent on trans
ports to the Gallipoli forts at the ex
treme western end of the strait today,
as it had been reported that the allies
were converging upon the fortress there
and upon, the garrison at Dadeaghatch
from three sides; the Greeks from the
west, the Servians from the north and
the Bulgarians from the east.

WHY IT FAVORITE
The Fischer Piano has had over a forty
year test in the South—that’s long enough
to find out the many people who favor it.
Its true singing quality, its deep rich
tone, its durability are enough to tell why
it is a favorite.
The Fischer Piano is widely endorsed all
over the Southern States, and highly com
mended by the Phillips & Crew Co., who
have sold it for forty years and have rea
son for such statement.
The economy of the Fischer is in its
tone-staying quality, as well as the
very reasonable price asked for it.

Atlantans Open Homes to Corn Club Boy s
BEDS ASSURED 152 LADS
Atlantans today responded to the ap
peal of the Chamber of Commerce for
sleeping accommodations for two nights
for the 700 Georgia boys who will be
here December 4. 5 and 6 for the corn
show.
Before the day was over accommo
dations had been assured 152 of the
young farmers and the list of hosts
numbered the foremost people of At
lanta. . And the committee has only
just started working. Mors than 500
must still be provided.
Disappointed In the effort to get the
military cots stored in the Fifth regit
ment armory in tlie Auditorium, the
corn show committee of the Chamber
of Commerce lias been unable to find
any other solution of the problem of
taking care of these boys for the two
nights they will be in the city, except to
appeal to the hospitality of Atlanta's
citizens.
Homes are wanted for two nights—
Wednesday and Thursday, December 4
and s—for approximately 700 boys,
some of the best boys in Georgia.
Belong to Good Families.
These boys belong to the best agri
cultural families in the state. They
are the pick of the 10,000 country boys
now enrolled in the Georgia corn clubs,
and they are coming to Atlanta as a
reward of merit.
The boys who will be here for the
show are those who have “come
through,” who have made more corn to
the acre than their competitors iq the
same county and who have done it in
accordance with the rules and regula
tions of ths United States department
of agriculture.
These are the boys who have taught
their fathers how to grow corn and who
have been largely responsible for the
increase of Georgia’s corn crop in the
last five years by 30,000.000 bushels.
The corn show committee had hoped
that this appeal would be unnecessary;
that it would be able to get for these
boys the use of the military cots in the
regimental armory.

ber 16, in Cable hall, the committee
for ethical lectures of Atlanta an
nounces that 200 of the 500 tickets to
be issued, to comfortably fill the lec
ture hall, have been reserved for proper
distribution by its 40 members, and that
the 300 remaining tickets will be mailed
to those interested upon request com
municated to M. H. Wilensky.
But, although the United State.- 1V! ,
department readily assented, there w is
found a state law which strictly p ro .
Mbits the loan or use of military pr op
erty to, or by, any others than the na
tional guard.
While doing everything in his power
to further the interests of the corn
show and the corn club boys, Governor
Brown was compelled to decline to a
thorize the use of these cots, because
he could not violate the law.
This left the corn show connnitte
confronted by an embarrassing prob
lem. and after carefully going over t
situation, it was found that there was
no satisfactory solution except to ap.
peal to the well known and generou
hospitality of Atlanta’s citizens, confi
dent that they would respond promptiv
and in full measure.
Chance to Do Boys Good Turn,
Many of- these boys have never beet:
to Atlanta before; many of them have
not even been out of their home coun
ties, but they are, every one of them,
anxious to see and learn.
It. is not only an opportunity fur A-.,
lantans to do a good turn f<jr the b<
but according to those who entertain-.-,:
some of them last year it will b,
pleasure for them to have one or two o:
more of these boys in their homes.
“We had four of them with us
year,” said Colonel W. L. Peel, "tm,;
enjoyed them very much. It was a real
pleasure, and we shall be gla-j to hav
four more this year.”
"I certainly shall be glad to repe,::
my experience of last year with tin
corn club boys,” said V. H. Krlegshabe:
This is the general testimony from ,
hundred of those who had corn cluL
boys in their homes in 1911.
Atlantans who are willing to take
one, two, three or four of these boys for
two nights—some of them will be here
for only one night—have been requeue,
to communicate with the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce. They are urg-, 1
to call telephone 5078 Main, glv mini
and address and state the number o!
boys they can take care of.
