THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS
Inventor, on His First Vacation in
Two Years, Sleeps Seven
Hours First Night.
LOWELL, MASS., Auk. 26.—Thom-
as A. Edison, while passing through
this city en route to the White Moun
tains on his first vacation in two
years, gave out an interview in which
he branded women’s dress of the pres
ent day as insane.
He also condemned the modern
“trot-tango” dances, scored the graft
ers In politics, and said the talking
machine is in the final state of per
fection.
He praised John Hays Hammond’s
plans for peace by making war im
possible through wireless control of
battleships and torpedoes.
Mr. Edison showed he was on a real
vacation by sleeping seven hours last
night.
He said:
“The modern dances such as the
‘turkey trot,’ ‘tango,’ ‘bunny hug,’ etc.,
are only a temporary state of mind,
from which the sensible American
public soon will recover.
“The peculiarities of dress and the
weird dancing that have of late came
upon the world may probably be call
ed only a ‘craze.’ There seems to be
periodic waves which go all over the
world. They follow one another from
time to time and no one can account
for them.
“The people of America and other
advanced countries are far too in
telligent to be swept altogether off
their feet by this passing phase of
insapity in dresses and dancing.”
‘Boll Weevil Wiggle’
Newest Dixie Dance
MEMPHIS, Aug. 26.—Officers of
Tunica County, Miss., have issued an
order prohibiting young society folk
from dancing a strange waltz. The
dance was originated by negro cot
ton pickers, and is dubbed the “Boll
Weevil Wiggle.”
It is a combination of the “grizzly
bear,” “chicken slide” and a waltz.
The man takes the girl in his arms,
holds her tight and glides along like
skating. At the end of a long stride
he bends her in front of him, lifts her
to his lips and when the orchestra
draws out a long chord, there is a
kiss that can be heard all over the
dance room.
‘Castle Walk’ Trot
Is Newport Favorite
NEWPORT, Aug. 26.—The “Castle
Walk” has not only supplanted all

other forms of amusement at New

Oliver Gould Jennings’ affair, and was
resumed the next night at Mrs. French
Vanderbilt’s.
Mrs. John Astoi* introduced a new
fashion at the Jennings dance. She
wore a short skirt, ten inches from
the floor, which gave ease and grace
to her dancing.

Seat Sale at Lyric.
It has been decided by the manage
ment of the Lyric Theater to place the
tickets on sale for Miss Emma Bunting’s
engagement at that house next week a
day earlier than usual, on account 6f
the heavy demand for seats. Therefore,
the box office will be open for this sale
on Wednesday morning Instead of
Thursday, as has been the custom here
tofore. Some of Miss Bunting’s admir
ers have gotten the impression that her
coming engagement at the Lyric is for
an indefinite period, but this is a mis
take. as her stay Is limited to one week
only, beginning with the holiday matinee
on Monday. The play to be presented
Is called “The Circus Girl,” and was
written by Sydney Grundy.

it’s one of the best of the summer sea
son.
Svengalli, the mind-reading pianist
and singer; Bond and Benton, in a hu
morous sketch, and the Meredith Sisters’
act are the high lights of the offering.
SvengulU’8 performance, in which she
plays any air a person in the audience
happens to request (in a whisper, of
course) of her assistant, mystifies com
pletely. Bond and Benton have an un
usually clever skit which is splendidly
done by a company of four. The Mere
dith Sisters are just renewing old ac
quaintances. for they hfcve been seen
several times. Their songs are new and
win much applause.
Other numbers on the program are
Golden, a card manipulator; Lewis and
Dody; the Four Regals, in a novel acro

amuse, and the Pathe play.

Now For a Quick Disposal of
Some Two Hundred Waists
As startling as the prices below are, and as great as may
he the expectations they will arouse, we venture that women
are going to be pleasantly surprised when they see the
waists these prices stand for.
But two hundred waists in such a waist store are a very
small quantity and, like remnants, are not to be allowed to
clutter, they must be done with, and so they will he, in a way
most pleasing to those who would save.
$1.00
For $2, $3 to $4 Waists
Batistes and voiles are the
materials. There are too few
of any one kind to explain
accurately what you will
find, but Cluny and Irish
laces are much in evidence
(yokes often show Irish lace
medallions), lace collars and
low flat collars variously
pretty, net frills—styles
stylish this season; some are
a bit mussed, but at $1.00!
69
For *1.50 £ *M5 Waists
Women will not have to
look at the price tickets to
tell that these are $1.50 and
$1.75 waists. They will
see worth in the voiles and
crepes and batistes, and they
will know that such neat
workmanship and dainty
laces and embroideries are
unusual for even $1.50 and
$1.75. High neck, long
sleeves, and low neck, flat
collars and short sleeves.
