WASHINGTON, May 8. President Hon\er Folks, of New York, to-day opened the ninth international meet ing of the National Association for the Study of the Prevention of Tuber culosis. The cenvention will last un til Saturday evening. Methods used effectively in reduc ing the death rate from consumption, its well as the progress of the work of the society in prevention, will be discussed. The Friedmann “cure” for tubercu losis was termed an “adverse factor” In the national campaign against the whit# plague bv President Folks. Folks refrained from expressing any opinion as to the value of the serum, but said the task of securing local and State appropriations “has become vastly more difficult because of the press agents of Dr. Friedmann.” “The Friedmann incident lias brought out one useful fact,” con tinued Folks. “The announcement of the Friedmann cure brought to light many tuberculosis cases that we knew to exist, but never could reach.” In the spring a young girl’s fancy lightly turns to what? Mrs. Mary Bohnefeld, police ma tron. thinks that Tennyson never spoke more truly, and that he should have included girls in his analysis of that affection which seizes young men at this season of the year. She thinks, too, that the “lightly” part of it should be stressed a bit more. “Girls have fizz on the brain.” said Mrs. Bohnefeld to a Georgian re porter to-day. two days three young women have been detained at the Atlanta po lice station, each figuring in matri monial tangles or disagreements. They are: Miss Emily Douglass, of Daytona. Fla.. 18 years old. Miss Mamie Odum, of Senoia, Ga., 21 years old. Mrs. Myrtle Bell, of Marietta, Ga., 19 years old. Mrs. Bohnefeld believes that the season of the year has something to Surgery Called Coming Cure for Tuberculosis. WASHINGTON, May 8.—The fu ture treatment of progressive oases of tuberculosis must be surgical rath, er than medical, according to Dr. Mary E. Lapham, of Highlands, N. C., an expert on lung troubles, who spoke before the clinic section of the Ninth Annual Meeting of the Na tional Association for the .Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which opened here to-day. "There are two classes of pulmon ary tuberculosis, those that recover, and those that from the start mani fest an inability to arrest the dis ease." said Dr. Lapham. "These pro gressive eases may improve, but they annot hold what they gain. As soon as this is recognized, the futility and danger of depending alone on good nursing, fresh air, and rest must be admitted and surgical aid employed. when a case of pulmonary tuber culosis belongs to the progressive type, to persist medical measures alone mar- cost the life of the patient. Surgery should be promptly tried be fore it is too late.” Mehnarto to Give Serum to Humanity. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON. May 8.—“At the moment I claim nothing for my serum. But once I am assured of its beneficial action 1 shall gladly give It to hu manity." Thus spoke Dr. Frederick .Mehnar to, the young but learned Germ-ui bacteriologist whose reported discov ery of a serum that cures tubercu losis. malaria and leprosy, has excited great interest on both sides of the At lantic. s Dr. Mehnarto said: “1 shall say only this much. Mv serum involves a totally new princi ple which was unknown to medical science hitherto. The employment of the serum is only in the experimental stage, but 1 have several hundred pa tients in various centers of Europe who are undergoing treatment with it. These lesLi have been going on sev eral months, but it will be some time yet before I ran announce definite re sults. 1 repeat that at the moment I claim nothing for my S'erum.” Dr. Mehnarto seemed annoyed that his researches have been commented on in the public press; as is seen, he assumed the attitude that medicdl ethics demands professional secrecy and non-commercialism. Clings to Medical Ethics. “I have nothing to say,*’ was his first answer. “Publicity will do no good at this time. When the tests of my serum are completed the full re sults will be published, but in the medical journals. I do not wish to find myself in the Rime situation as Dr. Friedmann because of undue pub licity. “Anything said now might cause ;i great deal of harm, by causing har rowing disappointment. Many mis leading articles regarding my serum have appeared in the newspapers of Europe, and to offset them 1 had to if»sue a disclaimer in The London Lancet.

Maryland Girl. Bride of Polish Nobleman Miss Louise Warfield, Daughter ot Former Governor, Weds Count Vladimir Ledocwski. do with the errors young girls com mit in affairs of the heart. But upon modern tendencies and the habits adopted by the girls of to-day she places most of the blame. Miss Mamie Odum ran away from her good home because she did not w r ant to marry a “nice” .young man her parents had selected for her. She had Yead about city life, its gayeties and joys, and spurned the attentions of the model young man of the vil lage. Moving pictures she dearly loves, and the ice cream parlors are a heaven. Mrs. Bohnefeld says: “That’s the trouble. Girls are not satisfied to stay at home and learn to be housekeepers and good cooks. They read too much trash and fill their heads with silly notions. Love of Home Real Basis. “Love of home is the only basis on w hich real love is founded.” Miss Odum wants to marry a man who is wealthy. Automobiles and theater parties are her dream of joy— or were, for she has consented to re nounce the city and return to the parental roof. Miss Odum played the organ for the village church choir and taught a Sunday school class. She is 21 year old, and pretty.' For $4 a week she had agreed to work here In Atlanta; but three days have sufficed to shatter the dream* she had dreamed in her quiet little home Jt Senoia. { Miss Emily Douglass ran away from her Florida home, intending to go to Toledo, Ohio, to marry a man there to whom-she had hastily become engaged. When she reached Atlanta she changed her mind. “I had rather disappoint him now than after we are married and it is too late,” she told the Atlanta po lice. She has returned to Daytona with her brother-in-law-to-be, F. W. Haskell, of Jacksonville. Consider Marriage Lightly. Mrs. Bohnefeld declares thaF girls these days do not consider matrimony seriously. She said: “Parents ought to begin very early to teach their children that marriage Is the most serious proposition in the world. A young girl meets a man who Is attentive to her. and. without any serious thought, she agrees to marry him. She never stops to con sider what kind of a husband he will make, or anything about his personal habits or his character, i believe they get many of their silly notions of marriage*from moving pic tures. “Well,- I guess it is the romanti* side of the thing that appeals to th« girl.

The fatal error has been committed. “Love of home is being crowded out of the hearts of these girls. Silly pleasures are all they seek. Of course, a girl’s life must be filled with some thing.

These things actually fill up their lives.and they have no lime for serious thought.” Girl Bride Soon Worries. Mrs. Myrtle Bell, J9 years old. a bride of a few weeks, is appealing for aid to get back to her old home in Waco, "Texas. She ran away from her husband, who is 50 years old. a far mer near Marietta. She has been taken to the Martha Home until her case can be investigated. Being “an old man’s darling” is all a myth, according to* Mrs. Bell. She declares she does not know why she married Bell. He asked her, and pleaded so strongly, she “just did.” Now she wants to go back to the old home.

Mrs. Bohnefeld declares that the large majority of hasty engagements result disastrously, and that sooner or later those who embark on the sea of matrimony without serious thought will encounter the rocks. “It is deplorable," she said, "that here in two days there have been three cases in which this foolish thing they call romance has gotten young girls into trouble. “But this is the month of May, and maybe the season has something to do with it.” Mrs. Bohnefeld sighed. She wishes girls could be saved from the lure of the false lights of romance. ACCUSED SLAYER ON TRIAL FOR CAR STRIKE KILLING AUGUSTA, GA..

Here it Is: When weary, when anxious, when almost desperate because of the trials of the day, I do not sit down and bewail my fate—I go to a mov ing picture show. Because [ often reach the little crlf*es of anxiety nnd resort to this most efficient remedy, I have grown gradually and unconsciously to bo quite a critic. It has become a real responsibility, for 1 feel, If I say that a certain picture show is good, that a certain number of my friends Immediately plan to visit it. I love the “movies" I enjoy the talent and triumphs of the actors and have learned to regard them as my friends. J appreciate what they have done for me in making my dark days bright. I like the glimpses into untraveled road* ^ which help me in my daily life. Now, you are- going to listen to me, I am sure, when I tell you what I have seen to-day. You won’t believe it at first, unless you were fortunate enough to go too. I have seen moving pictures that talk at the Savoy Theater. “Of course.” you will say, “they all talk.” No. you are wrong, for this is not a lip-reading contest, but real, loud words which even a child would understand. The pretty picture I saw was like a miniature Grand Opera, a bit of the prettiest part of an idyllic act. To the grace and charm of the thespian participants were added the marvelous words issuing from their lips. It was almost unbelievable. I rubbed my eyes and tried to per suade myself that I w r as not in dulging in a remarkably pleasant dream It was a realistic dream, just as are »o many, and the en tering of the Savoy Theater w'as but the memory of many happy little rests. Then, so I theorized, my dream had become fantastic, as dreams will do no matter how practically they begin. I felt like Alice in Wonderland, to whom all sorts of strange things happened most plausibly. I had even determined to ask the lady who sat next fo me whether she were only a dream or real. Then I thought I had best w'ait. for I must soon awake. The awakening did not come un til I had the very nicest time imag inable listening to the pictures talk. Then I began to enjoy the other films and stayed until the talking pictures appeared again. Then 1 rushed to see Mr. Jackson, manager of the Savoy Theater. He was glad to tell me about this new invention. I did not en deavor to learn how the lips of the performers and the words which they uttered were kept in perfect unison. I w'as only anxious to learn “When?” “Twice a week,” w r as the reply, and I have made an other mental note in my happiness book. That means new talking films every Monday and Thursday. But 1f you wish to see the charming one w’hich aroused my enthusiasm you may see it to-morrow. Each and eve y day the Savoy Theater will shjw these wonderful pictures. We are accustomed to almost miraculous Inventions and to the unusual. We feel almost disturbed If we are surprised out of onr in difference. Sometimes we evert feign Indifference, so afraid are we that we may show appreciation. Don’t do this. Visit the Savoy Theater at once a.nd learn to five and to enjoy. Let your suppressed enthusiasm ‘know no bounds when you see the product of master mind#, the stories which are told *o artistically as to seem simple, wherein is the highest art.
