THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN.
LIVELY SESSION
OF THE DENTISTS
AT THEJLECTION
✓
Minneapolis Is Chosen as
the Next Meeting
Place.
The second session of the National
Dental Association was without Inci
dent of special note, other than the
calling of the meeting to order by a
gentleman who declared he was “from
Mississippi, and knew something of pol
itic*,’’ when it looked as though the
convention was going to get away from
the control of the president. This was
while the doctors were trying to elect a
vice president for the West. Quiet was
finally secured and the election passed
off without further disturbance.
The second general session of the
National Dental Association was called
to order at 12 o'clock Wednesday by
President M. F. Finley.
The first paper read was by Dr.
W. Harlan, of New York, on "The Blue
Light and Heat as Therapeutic
Agents."
The discussion on the paper wa
X ned by Dr. Gordon White, of Nash
e, Tenn., and Dr. Frank Holland, of
Atlanta.
Dr. H. J. Burkhart, chairman of the
executive committee, was then recog
nised and reported a recommendation
that the Invitation to the barbecue ten
dered by the local dentists be accept
ed, and that the 3 o'clock session be
emitted. This was accepted by the
Association.
Dr. Burkhart then stated that within
the next year the association would
have Its own journal.
The next report was from the com
mittee of fifteen from the Fourth In
ternational Dental Congress. The re
port was adopted by the association.
The president then announced the
selection of the next place of meeting
On motion of Dr. C. 8. Butler, It was
decided to hold the next meeting on
July 30, 1907. Dr. Butler nominated
Minneapolis, Minn.
Dr. Beck, the secreary, announced
that he had an Invitation from Chi
cago, which was formally put by a
member of the Chicago delegation.
Meet Next at Minneapolis.
Minneapolis was chosen by the asso
ciation, the vote being almost unani
mous.
The election of officers was then gone
Into, and Dr. A. H. Peck, of Chicago,
was elected president.
Trouble Over Nominations.
Quite a bit of discussion and dls-
sention arose over the nominations for
vice president from the West. The
rules state that no formal nominations
shall be made, but some member got
the floor and before the president could
choke him off, placed his favorite be
fore the aaeoclation. To make things
fair to all others, the president recog
nised all who wished to make nomina
tions and a half dosen or so were put
up.
A great deal of confusion was In the
hall and Just before the ballot was
closed a lonesome old gentleman caused
quite a bit of amusement by aolemnly
rising and saying:
"I’m From Mississippi.”
'Tip from Mississippi and I don’t
like this way of doing. I know some
thing about politics, and 1 call for this
meeting to come to order."
No attention was paid to him, and
he subsided.
Dr. D. J. McMillan, of Kansas City,
was elected vice president for the
West.
Rest of Officers.
The remaining officers were elected
by acclamation, and were as follows:
Vice President for the East—Dr.
George E. Hunt, of Indianapolis.
Vice President for the South—Dr.
George Vunn, of Gadsden, Ala.
Recording Secretary—Dr. Charles 8.

Washington, Sept. 10.--The book

BURTON CLARKE

Burton Clarke, who for a number of

Chickamsuga School Opens.

Prices of grate coal will not be great
ly affected by the failure of the South
ern railway to accept shipments from
the Louisville and Nashville railroad.
The published statement that coal
will be advanced 92 a ton Is pro
nounced absurd by large dealers.
Factories, other large users of steam
coal and some dealers whose plants are
situated on the Southern are In an un
fortunate position, but so far as pri
vate consumers—the general public-
are concerned, it is stated that no ad
vance except that caused by natural
conditions will be made.
A. A. Dickerson, manager of the Bon
Air Coal Company, said Wednesday
morning, speaking after a talk with
other large dealers:
"Retail prices will not be advanced
on account of any disagreement be
tween the two railroads. The majority
of the large dealers are Independent of
the Southern, having their yards on
dther systems, and If they do not ad
vance prices those who are so unfor
tunate ns to be forced to make greater
expenditures must keep their prices
down to those set by the others.
"I do not look for any material ad
vance In grate coal. The best is now
selling at $5 a ton, aa Is usual at this
season. If coal Is scarce in the winter
It may advance to $5.50 In December
and to $5.75 or perhaps |6 In January
or February. It has done this for a
number of seasons, I understand. But
the difference between the two roads
will have absolutely no effect on prices
to private consumers. Too many deal
ers are Independent of the Southern.
"Steam coal will be advanced by the
disagreement, so far as consumers
whose plants are located on the South
ern are concerned. They must have
their shipments delivered by that road
and are In a helpless condition. But
these will be the only persons affected.
The report published Wedrtesday mom
Ing that retail prices would be advanc
ed $2 a ton Is absurd."

TWENTY FRENCH SAILORS
DROWNED IN COLLISION
HARVEY HILL GOT
COURT
TO FLAY
Lawyer Feared a Personal
Attack as Result of
Remarks.
Wishing to base the defense of his
client on the bad character of a young
man named Bell, one of the prosecuting
witnesses, Harvey Hill asked the pro
tection of the court officers Wednesday
afternoon while he made his address to
the jury In defense of a negro woman
named Hester Henderson, an alleged
Sunday tippler.
The testimony of the witness was
very incoherent and he seemed proud
of the fact that he had been drunk
when he claimed to have bought whis
ky from the Henderson woman. He
remained to hear the argument.
Having been assured that the court
would not allow the witness to assault
him, Mr. Hill lit Into Bell with A lot of
blistering Invective, but the evidence
was against the woman and she was
found guilty and given eight months
or |50 fine.
Bell muttured a few threats against
Mr. HID after the trial.

In a talk with O. H. Atklneon, press
agent for Jane Kennark, In Clyde
Pitch's ‘The Toaat of the Town,” that
gentleman had lome Interesting fea
ture* to present regarding the litho
graphers' strike, which Is now pretty
general throughout the country.
"This strike Is playing havoc with
managers,” said Mr. Atkinson, "for,
coming as It does at this season of th*
year, many Broadway' producers have
been caught without any pictured
sheets to herald the coming of their
attractions. Scores of managers had
given In their printing orders to va
rious lithographing houses, all the de
tails of the work had been completed,
and It was up to the press, when the
printers walked out. Consequently, the
lithograph houses are nuw In a very
chaotic state, and unless conditions
change soon th* billboard* throughout
the country will soon take on u vacant
stare. But. nothing daunted, theatrical
managers will take the road, for even
those who hove pinned great faith to
billboard advertising heretofore will
meet the emergency.
Newspapers Will Reap Harvest
"As a matter of fact, It la an III wind
t^at does not blow some one some
where some good. If the strike con
tinues, the newspapeis will reap a har
vest. Money that has heretofore been
spent for coloring matter for the big,
fences will eventually And Its way Into
the general colters of the newspaper
offlee. There will be some 'block' mat
ter, printed sheets, pasted about here
and there, of course, but the reds und
the blues and the greens will be sadly
wanting. And these sheets, costing
less than the llthos, the average man
ager will put the surplus Into news
paper advertising,' for he wants to get
his attractions to the public eye.
•'During the last decade the bill
board has become a very prominent
feature In the theatrical business;
much emphasis has been placed upon
billboard advertising. But 1 think that
gradually more attention will be given
to newspaper advertising by theatri
cal men. Newspaper men are drift
ing Into the theatrical ranks. Indeed,
at the present time theatrical managers
are beginning to see the value of news
paper men aa advance agents. And
the average press man who has been
associated with the newspaper office
comes to realise the importance of
newspaper advertising. This being the
case, he will give emphasis to press
advertising rather than fence advertis
ing.
“Showing" Without Pictures.
'Even now the big producing man
agera have not hesitated to send out
their plays without the pictorial sheets.
Jane Kennark la doing an excellent
business, notwithstanding the fact that
she has no pictures to point to Hit
coming of 'The Toaat of the Town.'
True, she has some of the 'block' forme,
but her stands will take on none of the
colors of the rainbow. 8he had a beau
tiful line of printing for this attraction,
but It got only as far as th* press.
This play, with Its gorgeous scenic In
vestitures and costuming of George the
Third's ptriod, offered excellent oppor
tunities for the lltlio makers but It
will probably not get beyond its scone.
"Do you know I could never see the
value of bill posting for the passing
show? A permanent 'ad' on a billboard
has Its merits, no doubt. Slapping one
dally In the face as It does. It finally
gets to the mind, but the transient bill
which comes for only a week or a few
days will get only to the eye. Hun
dreds and thousands of pedestrians
pass the bill board dally without ab
sorbing the details of the advertising.
They get only a passing Idea of the
pictures, (he coloring. They do not
carry the dates or the title of the at
traction In their minds.
The Circui Bill. .
For the circus the billboards offer
an excellent medium for advertising,
I believe. There Is an opportunity for
keeping the bills before the public for
longer period of time. And being
spectacular by nature an excellent im-
presslon of a circus may be made upon
the billboard. Men go to a circus to
see;' they go to a theater to 'hear.'
We speak of the 'spectators’ under a
canvas and 'the audience' In a theater.
The circus ring offers a series of pass
ing pictures, and these may be repro
duced with considerable effect upon
the fence. But how are you going to
convey the subtle lines of t’lyde Fitch
and the novel situation of 'The Toast
of the Town’ to the theater-going mind
upon the billboard? A Clyde Filch
line may be expressed In a newspaper,
and ring true.
"Undoubtedly there Is an art In bill
board advertising. Men who have made
It a study for years are engaged In the
circus business. They know how to

There are ten avowed candidates for

get the best effects; they know the
value of different colorl, and they
know how to blend the various sheetq
to secure the greatest harmony. The
best billers are in the circus business,
because the spectacular sheets afford
greater opporturafles for displaying
and developlng,thklr art than the lira
matte sheets of a hall attraction.
Limits of the Poster.
"Do you know, 1 believe that the
popularity of musical comedy, of ex'
travagansa and pantomime Is respon
sible for the great emphasis theatrical
managers have been placing upon bill
board advertising? The chorus girl
with her big picture feat offers a good
subject for the billboards, and an ar
ray of chorus girls, sextets and what
not, In variegated costumes, make
pleasing picture. But an episode or
a situation or a big scene can not be
presented upon the boards with any
degree of satisfaction. What becomes
of your pathos, or your comedy, or
your heart Interest on the fence? It
falls flat. Even Jlthoa, displaying the
various acts of melodrama are far
fetched. It Is best to 'tell' about the
rescue at the old bridge,' a picture of
such a scene Is never very startling.
"I recently eaw a 'three-sheet' which
showed (In speaking of bills one can
not get away from that word 'show
so closely Identified is the pictorial
sheet with the circus girl) the vll-
llan and his accomplice, a woman, In
the act of pressing the hero's arm fn
a book press. The situation was mon
strous; the situation might have been
told.
Origin of Billboard.
"I have often wondered whether the
billboard Is an American Institution.
I am In Ignorance as to Its origin. It
might be a reflection of the old 'sand
wich' man, who now seems passed. At
one time this Individual was a novelty,
and by virtue of his locomotive power,
I believe, he wan more effect than
the stationery -billboard: he had a
greater 'circulation.' And this very
circumlocution dt the newspaper gives
U a power over all other forms of
advertising.”
Washington, Sept. 19.—President
Gompers, of the American Federation
