CKNTkUR CO*'’*'' ', vcw YOM C ITT Miss Quern, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nero, of Grant Park, who is recuperating at the home of her parents after having her broken leg X-rayed and reset by Dr. Good win Gheesling at Grady Hospital last week, is recovering rapidly from tht accident, but faces the danger of a calamity even greater than a broken leg. She Is rapidly developing a case of exaggerated ego, commonly known as the “swelled head.” Miss Queen was a shy, timid young thing two weeks ago. She had no in timate friends, but spent most of her time playing with her younger broth - er. She never quarreled with the butcher when the bone he left for her had a trifle too little meat on it. Then she broke her leg and was taken to Grady Hospital. The afct that she was not only the first of Mr. Nero’s immediate family, but the first of her race, to try to bite a leg off an operating table in an Atlanta hos pital; that she was th^ first of her r ace to be punched, prodded and X-rayed by a real, honest-to-good- ness surgeon; that she now wears a plaster of paris east while her brother and papa and mamma wear nothing but a roar and a ferocious expression —all this has gone to her head. She acts like a chorus girl! Yearns for Publicity. Miss Queen yearns for publicity now, since she came home from the hospital, with a great and unsatisfied yearning. She pines for attention, and if anybody looks hi her brother • >r any of her relations in the big house at Grant Park, she cries in much tfhe same manner as does a cho rus girl when she learns there is a prettier girl in the cast than she. "Miss Queen is mighty conceited since she came home from th** hos pital,” said Edward T. Boyd, who lakes care of Mr. and Mrs. Nero an'* their children. “She used to run away when anyone went into her room. Now it is all changed. She is always showing her bandaged leg. an 1 gets mad if you don’t pay any atten tion to it. I’ve se<m her run up to ♦ he bars of her cage, w here a crowd of people weie standing, and stick h i leg. with its plasier cast through th» bars as much a : u\ Book a* ne: I’m tht of. ^ .llinx around h ** r " $10,000 Brooch Lost By Mrs. John Astor NEWPORT, R. I.. Aug. 28.—It has just been learned that Mrs. John Astor lost a $10,000 diamond brooch at the ball given in a tent last week by Mrs. ames B. Haggin at Arleigh Villa.

Ferguson, official pathfinder for the all-Southern transcontinental highway, is speeding through Missis sippi Thursday en route to New Or leans, the end of the second lap of the coast-to-coast hike. The tourists left Mobile Wednesday afternoon, ac cording to a special dispatch to The Georgian, from Ocean Springs. Miss. Mr. Ferguson pulled out of Mobile with regret as the reception in the Gulf C4ty was roost cordial through out his brief stay. Although there was some doubt as to whether Mobile would be included in the route be cause of the bad roads between the Alabama city and New Orleans, it is believed now that Mr. Fergusjn will route the highway through the Gulf City as a result of the marvelous en thusiasm manifested there over good roads and highways. Leaving Mobile the pathfinders drove toward Mississippi, crossing the State line at a rate of 35 miles an hour. In Alabama the tourists again saw numerous gangs of work men putting gravel and surfacing ma terial on portions of the road which has been in bad condition. Near Pascagoula, the party was met by an escort of fourteen auto mobiles which piloted them through the city and to the ferry at the Pas cagoula River. The run into Ocean Springs was made late in the even ing. but the roads were good and no difficulty was experienced. Mr. Ferguson expects to pass through Biloxi, Miss.. Eioz. Gulfport. Pass Christian and Bay St. Louis Thursday, stopping at either Popar- ville or Bogalusa Thursday night. He will reach New Orleans Saturday morning, according to the schedule.

[ CALLED HOT Speaker at Hygiene Congress Says Mind Is More Impor tant Than Muscle. BUFFALO, Aug 28.—Air and ex orcise for children should not alone be considered by teachers, said Dr Joseph Lee, of the Boston Schoo* Committee and president of the Play- Ground and Recreation Association of America, In addressing the Fourth International Congre-8 on School Hy giene here to-day. Dr. Lee asserted that the use of a child's muscles is Imixirtant, but added that the mind | life is even more important. "Better a stuffy school house with zealous work than fresh air and mental flab biness,” said Dr. Lee. “We make too much of a fetish of air and exercise." i Continuing, he said: “Smaller classes are essential to the preservation of the teacher and to her really reading the child. When we learn to take our childen's health and education seriously, we shall halve the size of classes in our ele- j mentar.v schools. It will Increase the cost 80 per cent, but the children’s lives and health are worth it. "To further free the teacher’s time for the normal pupil, we must have special schools or classes not only for the blind, the deaf, the tubercu lous, but for all requiring peculiar treatment, including the bright pupils to whom the regular grades are as Intellectual hobble skirt, spoiling their natural gait. “I believe that pupils In the lowest grade, probably in the last three grades, should have the afternoon outdoors or In the kindergarten room, not wholly because of the benefits of the play and fre.sh air, but chiefly to avoid the demoralization of half hearted work. Half-heartedness is a serious mental disease, worse than hulf-ltingedness.” DROWNED MAN BURIED. GREENVILLE. S. C., Aug. 28.—Th»> body of William D.

HARD SCALY that there’s anything unusual about. I’m the real attraction here!’” Miss Queen was as unique a patient as ever invaded the operating room of Grady Hospital. When Mr. Boyd brought her to the hospital in a cab one day, the learned surgeons argued for an hour trying to determine- whether she had broken her ulna and radius, or had merely "busted some thing.” They agreed that if she ha1 been a human being she would hav? had a complete fracture of the ulna and radius—since she was not a hu man being, but a lion* they declare firmly that she "busted something,' and let it go at that. X-Ray Picture Taken. An X-Ray picture was taken of the broken leg, which showed that both bones of the right foreleg were broken a few inches below’ the kne^. It was what the doctors call a “com plete fracture.” The pictures are prob ably the only X-Rav photographs of a lion ever taken in the South, an 1 are walued highly by the hospital sur geons. Miss Queen ’made three trips ro Grady with ( her guardian, Mr. Boyd, and each of them was a strenuous affair, especially the first one. when Dr. Goodwin Gheesling performed the operation. The young lioness is lit tle and had^a broken leg. but her other three feetVere In good working order and her teeth were v 7 ery sharp. It took .\Jr. Boyd almost half an hour to get her to the operating table, an<. when shejgot there it took three men to hold her while Dr. Gheesling set the leg. Queen fought all during the opera tion. developing an aversion to Dr. Gheesling’s hands. Once when the doctor was putting the finishing touches to a bandage, and when Mr. Boyd had both his hands fully occu pied with holding the lion, Queen lunged forward and snapped vicious ly at the surgeon’s hands. Mr. Boyd quickly threw u ls head against that of the* lion, and Queen gleefully bit a piece out of his cheek. Queen has been placed in a cage by herself since she broke her leg and is getting along nicely. The plas ter of paris cast prohab 1 - will be re moved within a w«ek or two, and she w ill again be allow ed to . ssociat* with the other nu mbers of her fam ily.

Miller, former head of the old Conservation Com mission, against the action of the new’ commission in Issuing a state wide permit for the destruction of turkey buzzards, there seems to be no immediate prospects of the slaugh ter stopping, and the Conservation Commission, backed by an opinion of the Attorney General and the sup- port of sanitarians, is standing ex tremely pat in the matter. Dr. Sidney F. Porter, head of the Hookworm Commission, is a strong advocate of the destruction of the turkey buzzard. He says It is a car rier of hookworms. Spread and Itched. Hair Fell Out.
