“Go hunt up Eberhard Faber, thol
pencil man, and ask him why he
doesn’t invent a pencil that will ring a
bell when It gets lost on my desk,”
sald the city editor., “He's at the
Piedmont 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,
1 should say,” he suggested. “But it
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 int..view. But
we've got the picture and it's a shame
to waste it, so here goes: \
The subject of this sketch is not the
original Eberhard Faber, but his son.
The first Eberhard started a pencil
factory in Brooklyn years ago, when
penajls 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
ells 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 build a
fence from here to Brooklyn, which
would make enough pencils to figure
‘ull the experts’ dope on the possibili
ty of that suburb’s copping this sea
loon'l pennant.

| {Chesley R. Perry, of Chicago, who
once agreed to act as temporary sec
[rt-tnry 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
take the city .
Mr. Perry was in the tow of such
active Atlanta Rotarians as L. D.
Hicks, local president; Victor H.
Kriegshaber, Albert 8. Adams, former
secretary: Earle H. Cone and others.
They were making hotel . arrange
ments, plans for headquarters and the
various entertainments for the inter
national convention here.
“We are going to have a wonderful
meet in Atlanta,” =aid Mr. Perry,
“and, belleve 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,
Ireland, Cuba and Honolulu, and it's
quite possible that the Atlanta con
vention will see the first Rotary rep
resentaitves from the Orient.”
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 editor 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,
witn a membership of about 1,500, he
explained. “Now we have 270 clubs
with a memhership of probably 30,000.
“When they found they could get
pobody else to take the job as secre
¢ary -in 1910, they made me agree to
fill in temporarily. 1 was to be rTe
lieved within 60 days. Since that time
they have continued to make me sec
retary each year, and the job has
grown until I have had to quit my
business and devote all my time to
the work.
“The secretary’s original office force
gix 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 loeal Rotarians held a lunch
eon Tuesday noon at the Pledmont 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 association were seated
at the tables, Including L. 3. Water
man, of New York; John J. Wood, of
Cleveland; D. W. Cotterel, of Harris
burg, Pa.; R. E. Ewing, of Birming
ham; D. P. Sikes, of Roanoke, Va.

Mrs. Whiffen Praises
Miss Hanson's Work
Mrs. Thomas Whiffen, the dear old
lady who tops the Forsyth bill this
week, thinks there's no actress quite like
Gladys Hansgon, of Atlanta. And being
in Miss Hanson's own home town, she
took occaslon Wednesday to say a word
about the younger actress.
“There's nolhimf in the way of stage
success which wlill not some da?' be
hers,”’ sald Mrs. Whiffen. “I played
with her and Kyrla Bellew in ‘Bullders
of Bridges' and we were great friends.
1 have watched many an actress in my
50 years of stage life, watched them
etruggle and fail. Miss Hanson has ev
ery element that makes success—tal
ent, beauty, culture, brains and high
ideals.”
Gladys Hanson, in private life Mrs.
Charles Emerson Cook, is the daughter
of P. H, Snook, of Atlanta.

Police Seehi
Mysteri
‘ e
The county police Wednesday sought
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 ciose as to rattle
some windows in houses in the northern
part of the city, it was reported Wed
nesday.
Anxious 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.

that puts possession of them within easy reach.
