FARMERS ASSIST WEEK'S BILLS AT
IN PURE MILK PLATHOUSES
Agriculture Commissioner Shows
Dairymen Unhealthy Samples
From Their Own Wagons.
Commissioner of Agriculture J. D.
Price, lnaugurator of the campaign
Impure milk product*, has
unearthed a startling condition of af
faire among the dairies of Pulton
County, according to information re
ceived at the State Department.
Official* working under the direc
tion of the State Commissioner de
clared Tuesday that tubercular cows,
open wells, fllthy cow stables and
other almost Indescribable sanitary
conditions had been found to exist
throughout Pulton County. Each vio
lation la sufficient for an Indictment
and either a sentence or a heavy fine,
under the State pure food and drugs
act of 1910.
Although bad conditions have been
discovered, the work of the State offi
cials thus far has been purely educa
tional. Since the campaign for pure
milk was Inaugurated about ten days
ago more than 100 dairymen, princi
pally of Fulton County, have been
summoned to appear before Commis
sioner Price, following an Inspection
of their premises by the State in
spectors. In each case the dairyman
has been told of the existing condi
tions at his farm, has been shown the
actual bacteria which exist in sam
ples taken from his dairy and has re
ceived, in addition, a warning to clean
up Immediately In lieu of being In
dicted for a violation of the law.
Without exception, the dairymen
have promised Mr. Price to be good.
A second inspection by the State offi
cials will determine whether they
have carried out their promises.
Dr. Kenneth Atkins, bacteriologist
under Mr. Price, has issued an in
formal warning to mothers and con
sumers of milk in general to purchase
only pasteurized milk. In view of tht
present bad condition*

Good Vaudeville at Forsyth and
Lots of Entertainment at
Other Local Theaters.
By TARLETON COLLIER.
Should your fancy direct your feet
toward any one of the city’s show
houses this week, you may be sure of
a very pleasant occasion, you folks
that stayed at home yesterday. This,
at least, is the verdict after a sitting-
in at the Monday opening of the For
syth and the Lyric, and after a con
sideration of th^f promises that the
other houses hold out.
At the Forsyth, now, there is a good
bill. If you like dancing, there is a
revelation for you at the Forsyth;
singing, it is there. And even if you
are a hardened vaudeville goer, with
the spiritless eye of a catfish for the
daring of the vaudeville acrobats, you
must confess a thrill at some of the
things they do at the Forsyth this
week. All with much comedy.
Perhaps you will notice the lack of
those little play sketches that usually
are put on a vaudeville bill to give it
a substantial tone. You make this
note with something of relief, jnost
likely. The brain-weary person who
goes to the vaudeville show is not so
very eager to wait and watch for the
development of anything that bids
fair lo be complex.
Something New in Dancing.
All this is by way of telling that
Frank Hale and Inez Patterson, a
slender, handsome young couple, who
are billed as "the World's Greatest
Turkey Trotters and Tango Dancers,”
have something now and unusual in
their exhibition of the new dances,
which becomes things of pretty
rhythm under their interpretation.
It is a notable fact that the audience
at the first show, after sitting appre
ciatively through the first part of the
bill, straightened in t heir seats, leaned
forward, and breathed faster when
the Hale and Patterson act was an
nounced. Here was something to in
terest everybody—the famed turkey
trot and the tango, berated and
abused from coast to coast. Abused
no more In Atlanta, it is safe to say,
or, at least, far less than heretofore.
Three sisters—Doris, Dot and Alma
Wilson—have a pretty act. Beyond
the fact that they can sing and
dance, they look alike and are ena
bled thus to perform a mirror act in
which one sister, singing and making
up before the mirror, seems to be re
flected in the glass. At least the
linage follows faithfully every move
ment, even to eyes and hair and
graceful swaying. Then the girl leaps
through the open space, showing that
there was no mirror at all, and that
there really were three persons In the
supposed reflection.
Comedienne Makes Big Hit.
Miss Lydia Barry makes fun and
sings. Real fun it Is; not tnat toler
able—or near Intolerable—wit of the
usual comedienne. One of the big
gest hits of the first show was that
scored by her songs and interpolated
monologue.
As to the aforementioned acro
batics—don’t be alarmed, because
three of the acts are those of hard
working. clever gymnusts. There Is
Paul Gordan and Arne Rica, by far
the bewst bicycle pair of the season;
Delmore and Lee, with a spectacular
study in black and white on a flying
ladder, and Wentworth, Gesta and
Teddy, a team the least of which is
not Teddy, the dog. A tabloid min
strel show, Russell’s Minstrel Come
dians they are called, completes the
bill.
Burlesque to Open
Columbia Theater;

“Call of the Heart.”
You probably were frightened from
even considering the Lyric last night
because of the too sensational name
of the show there. It is to be con
fessed that “The Call of the Heurt” as
a name is not the best asset a show
can have, but this week's attraction
at the Lyric rises above its name, re
vealing occasional real strength.
The play is one to appeal to Ameri
cans. It reveals the story of a de
generate English household whose
head, the twenty-first Baron of Wolf-
ston, married a real, red-blooded
American girl for her fortune. That
was 30 years before the time of the
opening of the play. Two of their
children are true offsprings of degen
eracy, the eldest being a scamp of the
first degree, the second a drug fiend.
Another American girl comes into the
old house, convoyed by an aunt with
social aspirations. A match is ar
ranged by the parvenu aunt and the
dissolute baron, between the girl and
the eldest son.
The fact is that the girl loves the
voungest. He is a puzzle, being un
like his brothers and his father, a
puzzle that is not solved until his
mother reveals the story of her true
love for a vigorous, heroic American
John Nicholson, as the scapegrace
Lord Everlow, is a consistent type,
j exaggerated a little, perhaps, but still
I convincing. And Ann Hamilton, as
his unhappy American wife, has a real
appeal. Miss Billie Shay is a charm

and you follow her fortunes with a
true interest. C. B. Waters, Clarence
