Atlanta’s annual Gasoline Week promises to be big an Advertise ment for the city every autumn as grand opera week is in the spring. It will be inaugurated in November with the automobile show and the mot r races at the new autodrome out Peachtree road. Now that the Chamber of Com merce ha6 indorsed the motor show and races and is nding its support to both, the committees of the auto mobile association are working to make the show the best ever. Space has been taken by all the leading manufacturers, and practically every car made in America will be repre sented. One of the features this year will be the music. Sousa’s Band has been engaged for the week. Sousa was the gfeat hit of the Atlanta Exposition years ago, and when he brought his band for a short stay at the Grand several seasons past he drew two big audiences. Special rates have been granted on all the railroads running into At lanta, and the auto association mem bers expect more visitors than ev *r before. Dealers and agents will se* the new 1914 models for the first time at the show, and owners and pro spective purchasers may look over competing lines, study the “works” and make up their minds where to put their money. Wiley West, one of the leaders in the association, will leave soon for Detroit as a delegate to the National Good Roads Convention, with the de termination to land next year’s meet ing for Atlanta. If the convention is* won, it probably will be held simul taneously with the 1914 auto show and motordrome races. Performance Given in Grove of Pines at Foot of Hill Near Meriden. CIGAR STORE ROBBED.

H., Sept. 15.—Seated in a charming grove of pines, Presi dent Wilson was a deeply interested spectator at the pastoral masque “Santuary,” in which his youngest daughter. Eleanor, played the leading part. The playette, by Percy Mac- kaye, the poet, was a protest against the slaughter of birds for millinery purposes. The President was a guest of Miss Eleanor and her sister Margaret. A lyrical prelude to the masque was sung by Miss Margaret. But upon the younger sister devolved dramatic necessities which indicated *he is possessed of rare stage talent. With soft, appealing tones Miss Wilson, as Ornis, the bird spirit, pleaded with the hunter to forswke his rifle. The sharp crack of a gun, followed by a sudden fall of Ornis, marked the climax of the piece. Wounded and sobbing. Ornis is con soled by the fauns, poet, dryad and naturalist, who in the end convert the hunter to a birdlover. The President’s daughter spoke her lines with careful expression, and was enthusiastically applauded. SUNDAY RACE LED Home-Coming Day Draws 985 to Sunday School, Approaching Atlanta Record.

You will find Uroxone different from other remedies. It is so pre pared that it is practically impos sible to take it without results.
