Forrest Adair Thanks Hearst Papers for Aid in Victory
| HARDLY can find words in which to express my high appreciation of the good
' work done for Atlanta by Mr. Hearst and the Hearst newspapers in the matter
of bringing next year’s meeting of the Imperial Council of the Mystic Shrine to
Atlanta.
Not only did Mr. Hearst give us the free and unlimited support of The At
lanta Georgian and The Sunday Ameiican, but every newspaper he owns in the
United States was working for the Gate City.
I REGARD IT AS SIGNIFICANT THAT IN EVERY CITY, WITHOUT
EXCEFTION, IN WHICH MR. HEARST HAS A NEWSPAPER, THE DELE
GATIONS ATTENDING THE SHRINE MEETING IN DALLAS WERE FOR
ATLANTA FIRST, LAST, AND ALL THE TIME.
I saw the effects of Mr. Hearst’s work, time and again, as the fight pro
gressed, and always it was hearty and effective in Atlanta’s behalf.
The fine special Shriner edition of The Atlanta Sunday American which Mr.
Hearst sent to Dallas was read widely and went far toward convincing the dele
gates that Atlanta is the place to hold next year’s meeting .--FORREST ADAIR.

Glad to
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Now that Forre.-’t Adair and his
Nobles of Yaarab Temple have suc
ceeded in their efforts to bring next
year's session of the Imperial Coun
cil of the Mystic Shrine to Atlanta,
I wonder if Atlantans generally real
ise Just what a session of the Imp^*
rial Council means?
I attended the recent session in
Dallas, as the representative of The
Atlanta Georgian and Sunday Amer
ican. and I know that Atlanta is pre
eminently a city that will t.ike to
a session of the Imperial Council—
take to It like a duck takes to water.
If anything in this world 1b right
in Atlanta’s line—if I really know
At inn t a—one of these annual gath
erings is. strictly!
The Mystic Shrine of North Amer
ica js composed of the very flower
of American manhood. Its members
are men carefully sifted, resifted and
re-sifted from the best Masonry, both
Scottish and York rites, affords.
There will be, easily. 40)000 Shriners
in Atlanta when the Imperial Coun
cil meets next May, and that does
not Include the ten or fifteen thou
sand of their wives and daughters
mire to come with them.
I would willingly bet somebody a
hat that there are not less than 50,000
visitors in Atlanta when the Shrine
meets here next spring, and I think
60.000 more likely.
Some People Coming.
That will be some people—yes. and.
believe me. the Shrines ARE some
people, all right!
It will require a lot of hotel and
high-class boarding house accommo
dation for that many Shriners. and
it will necessitate a mighty busy and
mighty willing entertainment com
mittee to keep them in motion.
And. yet, at thut, they will enter
tain themselves, as a rule, and after
a first-rate fashion, moreover.
They all are easy spenders. They
come to these meeting* well fixed
financially. Everybody will gut of
their money all that is coming to him
—if one must consider that view
point'—and all one has to do is to
let them go their own gaits.
"If Atlanta presses firmly the hos
pitality button, the Shriners will do
the reMt!
There was no gouging in Dallas.
Let that be recorded to the everlast
ing credit of that wonderful Texas
city. Hotel rates were not sky-rock
eted, and neither wore restaurant
charges. Automobiles were free to
the Shriners at many points, and
extra street cars were put on for
tiieir service wherever required.
There were approximately 30.000
Shriners in Dallas, and there will be
3<» to 40 per cent more in Atlanta
that was agreed to on h!1 sides in
Dallas -and every man Jack of them
had a bully time.
Dallas did the handsome thing by
the visitors—but Atlanta is nearly
double the size of Dallas, and can,
and will, do even more.
Lid Will Be Off.
While the Nobles are in town, th--
lid 1m off -remember that.
One or two misguided towns have
undertaken to keep the lid on while
the Nobles were on hand. Not one of
them ever h.°f* tried it a second time.

Odd Performances.
I was awakened by the odd per-'
formances of a red-fezzed gentle- i
man directly beneath my window. He
was serenading me industrioush with ;
a cornet, a- d he was playing, ‘‘Please*
Way and Let Me Sleep!” 1

leaned out tin window and inquired
of him sarcastically, “Well, why the

This time he played on his trus’.v
cornet. “Good Night, Ladies!”
As i was no lady, 1 could not ap
propriate this selection to myself. So
jl beat it again to bed. and finally he
lulled me hack to sleep with ‘‘The
Vol'cy Was F1re<\ at Sunrise!” which
lie pulled off a couple of blocks far
ther down town.
What wus the use, anyway? There
wan nothing doing arguing with that
sorenader. He had the 1 right of way
in Dallas, over me and over every
body else. And he was only one of
tiie 30,000, mind you.
Then* will he a lot of that sort of
thing in Atlanta next May.
They are out for a good time at
these meetings of the Imperial Coun
cil. and they have it. Their dignity
these Shriners leave behind them, but
their decency they carry with them.
More than half are accompanied by
their wives and daughters—and
everybody’s wife and daughter is as
secure against rudeness or incivility
as liny person could be. Rut none
of them are secure against
and friendly smile and a

Everything on the Level.
Everything is on the level, but
nothing drags for a second or any
fraction thereof.
Tracing its origin to the Moham
medan Kalif Alec* in 644 A. D. (year
of tlie Hegira 25), the Ancient Arabic
Order of the Nofibs of the M.ystic
Shrine has had its greatest grow l i
on the North American Font meat
since th<- founding of Mecca Temple
in New York City in 1870 and the
formation of the first imperial coun
cil there In 1876. (Maiming connec
tions in Asiatic countries, chiefly Mo
hammedan, the American order has
been developed as a separate organ
ization and now has 133 temples lo
cated in various parts of the United
States, Canada and Mexico, with a
total mernhi i -hip estimated at near
ly 200.000 Nobles.
According to the traditions pre
served by the order, there were fre-
quent revivals In Mohammedan coun
tries and the first European branch
was established in Italy late in the
seventeenth century. The Egyptian
branch was founded at Cairo in 1837,
under the protection of the Khedive
of Egypt, and still exists

Scottish Rite or a Knight Templar

Imperial Council Formed.
The Imperial Council was organiz. d
in New York on June 6, 1876. and
temples were established in various
parts of the country. The fraternity
is Catholic in its toleration and
Christians. Israelites and Moslems
have been admitted to membership.
The growth in popularity waft? rapid
and the membership increased in the
first thirty years to about 80,000 and
in the last ten years to nearly 200,000
with 133 temples.
The Mystic Shrine is not, properly
speaking, any branch of Masonry
whatever. It has been called the
"playground of Masonry,” and that
description fits it to a nicety. It is
true, however, that no one is eligible
to join the Shrine unless he has ob
tained certain degree.*' in .Masonry
After a man has taken the first
three degrees of Masonry he is a
Master Mason a full-fledged Mason,
as complete ly as he ever will be, po
far as Ancient Free and Accepted Ma
sonry goes. If he wishes to go “high
er," he may proceed by way of the
York Rite, finishing in the Comman-
dcry of Knightm Templar. Or he
may go by way of the Scottish Rite,
to the thirty-second degree.
Roth the York and Scottish roads
lead to th» Shrine- the Knights Tem

(Christians.

Harms Students
More Than Most Anyone Else.
The (Chief nf the Presbyterian Hospital in N. V., Dr. Fisher, tells one
very easy way to avoid some physical ills,
comments on
His
COFFEE
are most interesting (see letter in southeast comer).
If the subject appeals to you, try 1 caving off coffee and tea entirely, use
Instant Postuni and carefully note, day by
day, the return to health and strength.
A level teaspoonful of Instant Postuni in
an ordinary cup of hot water dissolves in
stantly and makes it right for most person's.
A big cup requires mort, and some people
who like strong things put in a heaping spoon
ful and temper it with a large supply of cream.
Experiment until you know the amount
that pleases your palate and have it served
that way in the future.
Postuin comes in two forms.
Regular (must be boiled).
SPEAKS OUT
Dr. C. Irving Fisher, for a quar
ter century at the head of New York’s
great Presbyterian Hospital, says in
the New York Times of March 23,
ll*13:
“Coffee poisoning is becoming con
stantly more common in this country,
especially among students, whom it
harms more than it would harm al
most anybody else.
‘‘Coffee intoxication does not lead to
wife beating, but its physiological ef
fects upon some of its victims are
almost as bad as those of alcoholic
poisoning.
"We continually find at the various
clinics signs of the harm done by the
excessive use of tea and coffee among
chi Id re n.
"Surely this is quite preventable.
"Children not infrequently appear
whose nervous and digestive systems
have been wrecked by these two
beve rages."
Instant Postum doesn’t require boiling, but is prepared instantly by
stirring a level teaspoonful in cup of hot water.
“There’s a Reason” for POSTUM
the time being, make no mistake
about it Atlanta will RE a play
ground. all right! It will be the
biggest, merriest, happiest, cleanest
playground it ever was before!
Forrest Adair, to whom I lift my
hat in perpetual admiration, both as
a mixer and a fixer, ha* sounded
a friendly admonition to Atlantans to
“begin getting ready now for the
.Siirirn meeting next year.”
It will he the biggest thing Atlanta
ever saw. For three dizzy and de
licious days Atlanta will he a whil-
iglg of wholesome fun and foolish
ness*.
Mr. Adair is anxious for the Atlanta
meeting to be the best the Imperil
Council has known in all itt amazing
history.
Atlanta can make it that very thing,
and Atlanta will. I believe—for At
lanta is going to take to that Shrine
business just, as 1 said before, "as
a duck takes to water.”
John A. Hynds said:
Fun-Loving Army.
"On the 8*emi-centennial of her first
surrender Atlanta is destined to be
captured’ by the most picturesque,
amiable, fun-loving and altogether de
lightful army that ever invaded a
city. They demand our courtesy and
hospitality and in return they will
furnish us a splendid spectacle and
a carnival spirit that will not be for
gotten as long as our hearts have a
throb and our brains a memory. The
East never witnessed a more magnif
icent pageant than that which swept
through the streets of Dallas when
more than a hundred bands and pa
trol- 0 , garbed in barbaric splendor,
marched in review*.
"Atlanta has been selected as the
1914 Mecca, and thousands of busi
ness mhn will make the pilgrimage
from every State in the Union and
every Canadian Province. If the
meeting is a success—and wo mean
to make it so—it will be the bigg si
advertisement Atlanta ever had. T ie
real work is ahead, ard with the true
Atlanta spirit every ne should j*>!u
in the preparation.* 1 . A Shrine con

RICHMOND, VA.. May 17.—After
lying in a dazed condition since last
Tuesday, w hen he was injured in ;id
automobile accident near the Rich
mond Country Club, Thomas J. Wal

co Company and manager of its local
plant, recovered consciousness this
; iteunoon long enough to recogsize
his brother, W. L. Walker, of New
York, a Wall Street broker, who was
at his bedside.
Though Walker and his chauffeur
w ere held responsible for the death of
Andrew B. Willingham, buyer for the
tobacco company, who was killed In

a call to become one of the leaders of
a united missionary campaign to be

SIMILARITY IN NAMES
TANGLES SUICIDE REPORT
The J. S. Cohen whose attempt at
suicide at Albany, Ga., is reported is
not Joseph J Cohen, the son of Frank
J. Cohen, of 169 East North Avenue.
The startling similarity of names has
led to misapprehension and to many in
quiries.
The coincidence is heightened also by
the fact that the J. S. Cohen of the
Albany report is connected with the West
Disinfectant Company, as is Joseph J.
Cohen.

WELCOME TO SHRINERS

them in Atlanta hotels. And if that
isn't a sign that they are going to
descend on Atlanta in force, I’d like
to know what is. Think of it, 1.5J0

attend a convention even before the
convention they are attending now is
over. I think that is one of the most
remarkable things 1 ever heard of.

The Arab patrol and the drum

in Atlanta Sunday morning at 10:30
o’clock on the special train that bore
them to the Texas city. The train
stopped over at Memphis. Little Rock
and Hot Springs on the way home,
and the Atlantans ar** being royally

following telegram, received by Mr. of Dr. J. O. Seamans, captain of the
Adair late Saturday afternoon, tells
the story:

$76,000 in a day.

Shriners from all parts
of the United Stales and Canada as
sured me before 1 left Dallas that they
will be here in force. The temple at
Albuquerque. New Mexico, is already
planning to come to Atlanta in mag
nificent style. Their patrol will be
mounted and dressed as cowboys and
they will bring with them a brass
hand composed of 60 full-blooded In
dians. The New Mexicans have served
notice on us that when they get here
they will own the town, and after
watching them at Dallas I am in
clined to believe they are right.
"The Canadian Shriners are as en
thusiastic over the prospect of com

Half a dozen Canadian lodges have
said they will be here, and most of
them will bring their kiltie bands
and drum corps. There will he at
least 100 bands in Atlanta when the
Shriners gather here, and probably a
dozen of them will be bands of the
unusual sort, like the Indian band'of
New Mexico and the kiltie bands of
(’anada.”
Mr. Adair said the conferences he
had with his committees Saturday
afternoon were merely preliminary.
Monday morning, he declared, he will
begin the active work of preparing to
entertain the great body of men who
compose the Shrine.
Mr. Adair returned home alone

a tour of the State, and are accom
panied by Governor Oscar B. Col

Dallas Shriners. They are not ex-

know that Atlanta was in the race to
stay. And in spite of all their hard
work, I Understand they had all kinds
of fun: in fact, each man said he I

For Business. Not Pleasure.
As to his own good time, here'3
what Mr. Adair said:
”1 didn’t go to Dallas to have a good
time. I went to Dallas to get the
next convention for Atlanta, and did
it. and i am satisfied. I guess 1 was

NOTED SPECIALIST
GIVES MESSAGE OF HOPE
TO SUFFERING WOMEN
After a medical experience in the
largest cities of the country extend
ing over a period of 25 years, Dr.
R. P. Sorrell, one of the most ex
pert and best known specialists in
obstetrics and diseases of women
in this country, has opened offices
in Atlanta at 313 Grand Building.
Along with the most eminent
medical authorities here and
abroad, Dr. Sorrell has pointed out
for years that 75 per cent of the
operations upon suffering women
are unnecessary, and he has shown
that this is true by having some
remarkable cures to his credit.
He has had hundreds of patients
upon whom operations had been de
clared necessary and who were re
stored to perfect health by him
without the use of the surgeon's
knife. His message to suffering
womanhood of Atlanta and the
South is one of hope. He extends
an invitation for all women who
have been sentenced to needless
operations and possibly death, to
Consult him free and have him pass
upon their cases.
Dr. Sorrell has also been unusual
ly successful in the treatment of
cancer without the use of the knife
and has been able in many cases
to effect cures.
His office hours are from 8 to 12
and 2 to 6 and on Sundays 10 to 3.
His wide experience in diseases of
women and obstetrics and his study
and research along original lines,
fully qualify him to treat these
diseases.
