G. S. C. W. LYCEUM
Herbert Thoir.as, author of the
dramatic success "Under Orders,"
ban written a three-act play, “Atone
ment,” especially for Mr. and Mrs.
Glen Wells, popular dramatic artists,
who are to come here on the Lyceum
course Saturday night February 11th
Mr. and Mrs. Wells will feature this
interesting play on the splrndid pro-
srram which they will present here.
“Atonement,” by the skillful use
of dual roles, requires but two actors
for its performance. Mr. and Mrs.
Wills are experienced entertainers
who have perfected their art under
'he best obtainable masters. In their
' ands thg play receives a clever inter
pretation.
These two dramatic artists are al
so exceptional musician^ and, as a
prelude to the presentation of
“Atonement," they feature a series
of charming songs.
The merchant who advertises in
his local paper lets the public know
what class of goods he carries, and
that he desires trade.
The Kiwania Club baa again taken
the organization
artist of solo renown. Upon his band
of master musicians, Sokoloff plays
as a great organist would play upon
the keys. Sokoloff has been called
by eminent critics "a director
flame, of poitry, of compelling
thority." His concert in Macon next
month will be in the nature of *
triumphal return since it is brough*
about by the insistent demand of
those who heard him last season to
experience the same thrill again.
The entire orchestra of 91 i
wilf be brought to Macon for this
concert, which is under the local
direction of Robert H. Wiliams, of
the Williams-Brecdlove Music Co.
Reserved scats may be secured at the
Williams Breedlove Co., Macon,
prices ranging from 75 cents to $2.50
plus war tax.
Mr. Sokoloff has arranged
gram for the Macon concert which
should make a strong appeal not
only to the trained musicians of this
teritory, but to all who find
joyment in music in any of its forms.
It is due to his knowledge of what
the public wants and enjoys that has
made Nikolai Sokoloff one of the
most loved conductors of all time,
well as one of the greatest.

interesting and detailed report of the
annual national meeting of the As
sociation held at Cleveland, Ohio, to
which he was sent as a delegate of
the local chapter.

at the time at m:eting place for five
other learned bodies, among them the
Association of American Colleges.
Dr. Daniels stated that a plea
was made for greater co-opt ration
as n means of developing more effici
ent methods of advanced education, <s
co-operation which can only come
through discussion and clarification
of the problems of the various edu
cational organizations, as they have
a common ground on which they
must meet, agree, and sympathize. He
stated that a plea was made for
more attention to be given to fore
ign students in our land, represent
ing about forty-two different nations
for through them all peoples of the
world may be drawn nearer to
gether in bonds of love and friend
ship. A closer intellectual relation
ship with Latin America was urged,
through the exchange of professors
and fellowships; more uniform ap-
nointments and promotions of pro
fessors, and greater academic free
dom in developing the intellectual
qualities of students.

vital interest to college teachers
presented by Dr. Amanda
Johnson, Secretary of the local chap-
for open forum discussion. At
the close of the meeting delicious re
freshments were served by Mrs.
