IIKAKST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, GA„ SUNDAY, JUNE 1, 1013. 3 A OhWdl!’Mrs.KdIy’s Idea of Beauty Honor AUGUSTA IN She and All Her Family Appear at Fete of Joseph Habersham Chapter, D. A. R, RAIN DRIVES PARTY INDOORS Bo-Peep, Bluebeard, Contrary Mary and Other Childhood Fa vorites Caught by Storm. Mother Goose, dear to every child ish heart, and every older one as well, descended with all her family upon Mr. and Mrs. Clyde King’s lawn Saturday afternoon at 4 o’clock. She led a grand pageant. Including everybody from Bo-Peep, Bluebeard and his wives to the “Old Woman Who Lived in the Shoe,” and had so many children she didn’t know what to do, as well as the switch she used on them when she sent them to bed. The news had spread that Mother Goose was expected and several hun dred persons turned out to do the famous old lady honor. However, contrary to every one’s idea, she was not a Mother Goose at all, even though she looked the part. She was really a “Father Goose” in Mother Goose’s clothes—and was Charles Glover This was a surprise except to Fa ther Goose himself and the members of the Joseph Habersham Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolu tion. who imported the Goose family to help them make money to erect their chapter house on Peachtree Road. Rain Causes Flight. The Druid Hills lawns of Mr. and Mrs. King and Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Mitchell looked like a Fourth of July celebration, a coronation and an in auguration of a President, all in one. That is. they did before the rain. On the Mitchell lawn a baby show was conducted, eight prizes being awarded to children who were fine speciments of w r hat children ought to be. Miss Gladys Hanson Snook presented the prizes after the little folks had been passed upon by the judges. She made a charming little speech. Mothur Goose, with her tall black and gold cap and her red and white costun. had just marched into the king’s premises and begun to show native Atlantans what she could do outside of a book when the sky darkened and shortly after the floods descended. Piano Gets a Soaking. Beckoning to her patriotic follow ers who were sitting in 300 or more lawn chairs and standing all over the place, she scampered for the house and let her children finish their fancy dances and other pretty Mother Goose tableaux there. The booths also had to be torn up and their con tents removed, but the poor piano Mother Goose’s children marched by had to be left out in the rain till it could be rescued and dried by the fire. The house looked like the open pages of a Mother Goose rhyme book. Here and there were bevies of fairies, or Brownies—or just plain, ordinary Bo-Peep, who was Miss Sarah Col- cord, was on hand with her shepherd ess crook and her flowered gown. A young clown was her shadow in the personage of Lawton Griffin. Miss Floyd Fort, as “Mary, Quite Con trary,” had a garden of fifteen girls She carried a watering can to sprinkle them with. Bluebeard’s Many Wives. Among Bluebeard’s wives were Misses Lucile Dennis, who was sup posed to be from far Japan and ivore chrysanthemums and a flowered silk kimono; Dorothy Wilkins and Tom mie Perdue.

Merchants Agree to Close Stores at 1 o’Clock Wednesdays for Three Month*. Beginning Wednesday, many Mari etta Street merchants will begin clos ing their stores at 1 o’clock in the aft ernoon of Wednesdays to give their clerks a half-holiday. This early clos ing will continue through the months of June. July and August. The stores that signed the early- closing agreement are C. M. Hatcher & Co., A. S. Taylor, Waukaway Shoe Company, Peacock & Drennan, M. < ’ Strickland and the Harrison Drj Goods Company. If you were told that you are one of the most beautiful women in the world, and that your picture was wanted to represent America in a glorious galaxy of feminine beauty chosen from the countries of the world, what would you do? . Would you feel flattered, and im mediately deck yourself in the fan-" ciest of fancy clothing and tell your admiring friends about it? Or would you accept the honor—probably the greatest, from a feminine point of view', that could come to you—with an “Oh, well—’’ and a fascinating shrug of much admired shoulders? Mrs. Gertrude V. Kelly, of Atlan ta, winner of The New York Amer ican’s beauty -contest, and declared one of the fairest of Atlanta’s count less fair women, did the latter. England Calls Her Fairest. She received a letter recently from Rudolph De Cordova, a magazine writer of London, England, asking for her photograph, the one which won the gold medal offered by the New York paper. Ml*. De Cordova wrote that the editors of The London Sketch and The London Illustrated News had asked him to prepare an article on “The World’s Most Beauti ful Women,” and he wrote Mrs. Kelly that he had selected her photograph that appeared in The Georgian ns offering the best type of American beauty. He wrote also that he Is selecting the most beautiful woman of every civilized country, and would combine them all under the caption “The fairest Women of Every Country.” Now, even to a mere man, a re quest like that would seem to be an occasion for great and unrestrained rejoicing. But— When an American reporter called "at her home to beg her to share the details of th$ hon or with the people of Atlanta, she was placidly—and. beautifully— pressing a bewildering assortment of silks and chiffons, and she ap peared no more excited over being chosen as an international beauty than she was when she won the New York American's contest. “Oh, well ” she dismissed the .’jbj«ct. with a smile, “he made the selection from a photograph, and •■'holographs, you know ” Beauty Bewilders Visitors. And then she smiled again, and— don’t anyone believe for a minute that the photograph which Mr. DeCor- dova considers a picture of a “world’s i beauty” is one of the “you know” **rs. Kelly's smile in itself is ehU , to prejudice any judge of femm e beauty in the world in her favor, and her rich coloring, regular Harris D’Antignac Fatally Hurt and Four Others Injured Re turning From Picnic.

UNIDENTIFIED MAN HANGS HIMSELF ON CITY STREET BIRMINGHAM, ALA., May 31.— The body of a white man, 50 years old, unidentified, was found hanging to a tree at Nineteenth Avenue and Thirtieth Street, North, this afternoon by a negro. It is believed the man climbed the. tree, put a wire around his neck and then jumped off. features and her hair form a bewil dering combination of beauty. And here is the most remarkable thing about Mrs. Kelly’s “interna tional beauty:” She hasn’t used a drop of cold cream or other cosmetic for a month of Sundays. “Cosmetics do not make beauty,” | she declared. “They destroy it. There is only one way to be beautiful, or at least retain what beauty you have— and that is to live simply and be calm. Above all things, be calm. Don’t fret and worry your good looks away.” Mrs. Kelly says the “don’t worry” rule holds good both summer and winter, especially in the summer, when most women fear the ravages of heat and perspiration. The most splendid of toilets is worthless unless you can keep cool, Mrs. Kelly de clares. Beauty Hint* for Summer. “Summer is the season of the year that most women dread,” she said. “The heat plays havoc with com- | plexions and costumes, and brings on | periods of worry and depression that destroy their beauty.” Here are five simple rules observ ed by Mrs. Kelly and her beautiful daughter, Sarah, which, if followed during the summer months, would, in the opinion of Mrs. Kelly, enable you to retain your beauty: 1. Be calm; don’t fret; don’t worry. 2. Live simply as you can and take life easy. 3. Eat sparingly of meat. 4. Be pals with your family. 5. Keep as cool as possible.

Council Aids Chief Beavers in Ar- Sculptor, Exhibits Model of resting Belligerents Angry Over Work at Chattanooga. Discussion of Mystery. Hoping that four of the States of the Confederacy will adopt his de sign, Pietro Ghiloni, sculptor, exhibit ed at the Chattanooga reunion a mod el for his proposed memorial to the "Women of the Confederacy.’* Ten States have adopted the design by Miss Belle Kinney. The four re maining States—Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana and Weat Virginia—are rather averse to using her statue, pre ferring, if possible, something dis tinctive. It iy these States which Mr. Ghiloni has tried to interest, and with considerable assurance of success. The group as designed by Mr, Ghi loni presents two entirely different tableaux. Viewed from one side, the erect figure of a woman is ^een sup porting a. wounded lad with one arm, while with the other she urges the ranks behind to follow the color- bearer, who holds the flowing flag of the Confederacy. A broken plow and trampled grain typify the devastation in the wake of the Northern army. Another figure, a mere boy, Is aiming a rifle over the handles of this broken plow. as a complete division between th two groups, a kneeling woman band ages the arm of a wounded soidiei who aims a revolver, notwdthsiandini his hurt. The idea hay been to show the In domitable spirit of the South, fighting on, though stricken, and the loyalty of the women, who, though aympa- thizing deeply with their wounded brethren, found courage to spur them on to continued conflict. The pedestal has space for bronze tablets picturing two battles. Mr. Ghiloni’s idea is that the different States probably will have different battles in mind which they think most deserving of commemoration because of the conspicuous part their own troops* displayed. He plans the group as fourteen feet high, the base ten feet. Long Resident of New Orleans, Mr. Ghiloni is a native of Italy, but long a resident of New Orleans. Among itis works are the pediment of the Oklahoma City court house, one of the most beautiful buildings of its kind; the Louisiana Purchase monu ment, at the St, Louis fair; deflora tions for the Delgado Art Muteum, ; New Orleans: several noteworthy busts, and figure* of Sts. Peter and Paul in the Church of San Menlalo, .4.1 Tedesco, Italy. He has modals from the Italian Exposition In I*on- don, from the Paris Exposition and from the San Marco Exposition at Florence, Italy. His latest work is a giant p,onu- ment for the Italian colony of Mem phis. Councilman W. G. Humphrey made his first real use of his police badge Saturday night. While with Chief Beavers he took Into custody two men engaged In a fist fight over the Phagan case. The prisoners were J. M.
