! “GGo hunt up Eberhard Faber, the
!]u ncil man, and ask him why he
| doésn’'t invent a pencil that will ring a
I!w?l when It gets lost on my desk,”
| said the city editor. “He's at the
[l']v-dmnnt with the stationers’ con
vention.”
- One of his friends said Mr. Faber
was out.
| You'll find him out at the Brook
haven golf course, somewhere be
tween the seventh and eleventh holes,
I should =ay,” he suggested. “But if
he could invent that bell attachment
you're talking about he wouldn't
waste it on a lead pencil. He'd put it
on golf balls.”
So there went the interview. But
we've got the pleture and it's a shame
to waste it, 80 here goes:
The subject of this sketeh is not the
original Eberhard Faber, but his son.
The first Eberhard ‘started a pencil
factory In Brooklyn years ago, when
pencils were a novelty, He made good
pencils and good money, His son
succeeded him, made better pencils
and more money. Today he is said to
be worth $20,000,000, all made from
nickel and dime pencils, rubber eras
ers and bands and similar office equip
ment. The only trouble on his mind
Is finding enough cedar to make pen
cils from. Now he is swapping wire
fences for old cedar rails. If he'd try
The Georgian's exchange column, he
would get enough rails to bdbuild a
fence from here to Brooklyn, which
would make enough pencils to figure
all the experts’ dope on the possibili
ty of that suburb’'s copping this sea
son’'s pennant,
Guy Bomar, chauffeur for R W,
White, of No. 270 Gordon street, Wed
nesday was under bond of S2OO for as
sault and battery and had bLeen nned
370 for reckless driving, as the result of
the wreck of Monday in which his ma
chine rammed a car belnf driven by
Mrs. Joseph Hill, No. 186 Highland ave
nue,
It was testified that after Bomar
crashed into the Hill car he pushed one
of the woman occupants to the ground,
causing painful injuries.

| Chesley R. Perry, of Chicago, whol
"hnrf* agreed to act as temporary sec
| retary of the International Rotary
Clubs for a period of 60 days and who
| has never managed to get away from
| the job although six years have
elapsed, was at the Piedmont Hotel
Wednesday arranging for the time in
1917 when the world Rotarians will
flukl‘ the city .
Mr. Perry was in the tow of such
active Atlanta Rotarians as L. D.
| Hicks, local president; Victor H,
fKrinkflh:nbr-r: Albert 8. Adams, former
| secretary; Earle H. Cone and others.
The¢y were making hotel arrange
| ments, plans for headquarters and the
ivurhms entertainments for the inter
| national convention here,
| "“We are going to have a wonderful
| meet in Atlanta,” said Mr. Perry,
[ “and, believe me, these Atlanta Ro
tarians are capable of the job they are
facing. We'll have people here from
all over the United States, England,
’lreland Cuba and Honolulu, and it's
| quite possible that the Atlanta con
| vention will see the first Rotary rep
! resentaitves from the Orjent.”
Mr. Perry, who has been executive
| secretary since the international was
|organized at Chicago in 1910, is head
| of the real working forces of the big
|organization. He is also edlitor of
| The Rotarian, official publication of
| the international, and has other du
| ties that make his a man-size job.
“When the international started in
1910 there were only twelve clubs,
with a membership of about 1,500,” he
{explained. “Now we have 270 clubs
| with a membership of probably 30,000.
f “When they found they could get
nobody else to take the job as secre
lmry in 1910, they made me agree té®
{fill iln temporarily. 1 was to be re
lneved within 60 days. Since that time
they have continued to make me sec
!rotary each year, and the job has
|grown untdl T have had to quit my
business and devote all my time to
| the work,
| “The secretary’s original office force
| six years ago numbered one, being
| myself. Now we have an extensive
| office suite with a working force of
seventeen members.”
Mr. Perry reports that organizers
| from San Francisco and Buffalo are
|now in the Orient to promote new
Rotary Clubs. Clubs were being or
ganized in Berlin and Paris at the
time of the war declarations and were
necessarily abandoned for the present,
| The local Rotarians held a lunch
| eon Tuesday noon at the Piedmont in
| honor of Mr. Perry, to which all visit
|ing Rotarians attending the station
| ers’ convention were invited.
! A number of the prominent mem
| bers of the assoclation were seated
|at the tables, Including L. E. Water
| man, of New' York; John J. Wood, of
4(‘lo\'eland; D. W. Cotterel, of Harris

hers,”” sald Mrs. Whiffen. *“I played
with her and Kyrle Bellew in ‘Builders
of Bridges' and we were great friends.
I have watched many an actress in my
50 years of stage life, watched them
n(rusfllr and fall Miss Hanson has ev

ent, beauty, culture, braing and high
ideals.”

THAT KENTUCKY BLOOD! |
A lineal descendant of the bet

ing Frog story was discovered to
day in the person of Ed Dan- |
forth, of Lexington, suh, racing
writer and expert tipster.
Mr. Danforth, waiting for the
races to start at the fair, and
havipg nothing else on hand but
work, bit into a chinquapin, form
which appeared five fat and ener
getic worms. Mr. Danforth did
not waste them. He drew a six
inch circle on a piece of paper,
put the five worms in the cen
ter, and invited bets upon which
would crawl out of the circle first.
In the course of an hour he had
absorbed all the loose change in
the editorial department.
The office boy, experimenting
with the tired racers, discovered
that all but one had been lightly
touched with the mucilage brush.
That one, nreedless to say, was

Police Seeking
Mysterious
Blasts
The county police Wednesday souzht]
the solution to a series of mysterious{
and terrific explosions which in the last |
two nights have occurred ‘‘somewhere
nearby” and were plainly heard in At
lanta.
And the whole city is wishing the po
lice success, for the city’s curiosity has
been aroused. i
Despite the police hunt and system
atic inquiry over the county, however,
not the slightest clew has been found
that would tend to reveal the location
of the big blasts or to disclose their
purpose. Two of these explosions were
heard Monday night and two on Tues
day night. Apparently, the blasts were
set off at some point northwest of the
city, according to the police. One of
the explosions was so close as to rattle
some windows in houses in the northern
part of the city, it was reported Wed
nesday.
Anxjous citizens all over the county
have kept the telephone wires hot into
both the police station and the county
police headauarters in the courthouse
with inquiries. But the police gave no
information, for they had no informa
tion to give. They are as greatly mys
tified as the inquiring citizens.
| The county police suggested that these
blasts may be connected with the theft
' Sunday night of about sixty sticks of
!dynamite from the magazine of the
North View Cemetery, near the Chatta
hoochee River.
l The police have been keeping a close
