Bearing some bright musie, seeing
some pretty girls and laughing at
some exceptionally clever comedians.
Mr. Garneall continues to win gold

abaurd facial expressions and queer
contortions, to say nothing of his ir
resistibly funny make-ups, finding
wide scope in the new vehicle for
the week, "The Girl From Georgia."
There are some exceedingly attrac

Aiißnsta’s Historian of the
Confederacy— Knowledge
is Finite—W onderful
Birds—The Upper Room,
It was a well-deserved compliment,
(hat. paid Miss Mary Hall in her re
election as the historian of the Ladles’
Memorial Association for a term of
office to extend over three years.
This does not mean that Miss Hall
Is simply Georgia's historian. She
is historian for the whole of the thir
teen seceding states, the woman to
whom Is entrusted the great task of
telling what from year to year goes
towards completing the history of the
Confederacy and of those patriotic so
cieties whose happy task It Is to keep
green (he memory of the men and
the women who fought and worked so
bravely during all Ihe dark days of
Hie Confederacy when loyal men and
staunch women refused to recognize
that might meant right, and when no
sacrifice was too great when It was
asked In the name of the Confed
eracy.
The South Is most fortunate in the
possession of such a woman as Miss
Hall, whose services to her beloved
country by no means ceased when
peace was declared and who is ever
active not only In keeping prominent
ly before the public the best traditions
of her loved Southland, but in min
istering to the homely comforts of
those heroes who once wore the gray
and who are now old and sometimes
comfortless.
The election of Miss Hall to her
present high office Is a compliment
to Augusta as well as to this gifted
woman, and It Is one thal Is meeting
with universal nprpobatlon.
So many beautiful things are being
said of Edward Everett Hale, and
all of them are well-deserved. In
deed, It would be hard to sufficient
ly rate this man of brond and

deep Intelligence, of marvelous intuit
ive power and of transcendental spir
ituality, a man who has done more
than probably any other within the
personal knowledge of this generation
to mold thought. But that it is not
possible for any one man to possess
an absolutely all-embracing knowledge
is rather amusingly illustrated in the
case of Dr. Hale.
A wqll-known Augusta woman tells
the story. She was at Chautauqua
one summer when Dr, Hale was there
for the purposo of addressing the as
sembly, At a dinner given a group
of certain important personages, a
Georgia woman said to the reverend
chaplain of the senate: “Will you not
join us in drinking to ten-cent cot
ton.",
He was all gracious suavity when
he courteously consented to the toast,
"because you request it, ladies, but
really, I have no idea what you mean
by ten-cerits cotton.”
Augustans, in company presumably
with pc; pin of every other city in
every cthor country on the globe, are
fond of telling of how smart are the
dogs they have, animals far more gift
ed mentally than animals to he found
any w ..ere else; but, to judge from two
stories recently brought us of Augus
ta birds, it is the brotherhood of
Winged things that gives us great
est cause for pride.
One is the story of a canary owned
by an Augusta woman. This bird is
so tame that it flies about the house
at will, never seeking to escape by
the open windows. It is very fond
of perching on Its mistress’ shoulder
and of eating bits of bread from her
lips. But its favorite pastime is to
accompany her to the telephone,
where it sits perched just above the
bell, where it apparently delights
either in the conversation or in the
vibrations it can feel.
But the most remarkable part of
she whole thing is that it does not
wait to accompany the summoned one
)to the phone, but the moment it
hears the bell ring it flies straight
for the tinkling object and sits there
watting until the lady arrives and
the conversation Is concluded.
The other is a story of a superb
scarlet tangter, the finest specimen
of this species of bird—those whiy
have seen It declare —ever found in
this part of the country.
Its brilliant plumage first attracted
the atlention of the owner of a pret
ty garden on one of our side streets
about three years ago, and she be
gan to throw crumbs for the bird.
She kept this up for several days
and then one day forgot It, upon
which tho bird came and tapped per
emptorlly upon her closed blind. Af
ter this, she always waited for the
tangter to come to hor window and
tap before she gave It food. Then it
became a daily custom. With his
mundane wants so well looked after,
the bird evidently thought he could
well afford to marry, so It was not
long before he brought a mate to
the pretty nest in the hedge Just be
j neath the window. There for three
! seasons now has he raised his lovely
j young families, and never a day dur
ing all that time hns he forgotten to
! tap for his dally dole that is always
1 waiting for his summons.
In these commencement days we
are hearing much of the lofty ambi
tions, of the proud aspirations of the
fair girl graduate who knows that
she has a talent and who feels that
she has a career. And every time
she reads a paper in which these am
bitions are given voice, or every time
reference is made to her mental ca
pabilities, there is one auditor at least
who tongs to thrust into her grareful
young hands these verses penned by
a brilliant author fmt a wiser wom-
whose House of Life has an Up
per Room, such a room as most of
our more gifted girl graduates are
now looking upward to longingly, with
out a thought of what Is being passed
by in the climbing:
In my house of life is an Upper Room,
A small and garnished place:
And there I dreamed in the mist-gray
gloom,
And I looked my soul in the face.
tO Upper Room with your dreams
where 1
l.et m\ friends, unwept, go passing
by!)
Once Love tried the door and a child's
voice came—
-1 heard It through my prayers—
But the door was barred when they
called my name,
And the steps wont down the stairs
(And yesterday at the door I found
A toy and a rose trampled on the
ground.)
And my prayers were heard, for with
toil my house
Has grown, though empty, great;
And from my Upper Room 1 see
Crowds gather around my gate,
t From ray Upper Room with its
dreams where 1
I I,et the loveless years go passing by.)
, 1 have fought my fight. Hark, they
bring the prise--
1 haw run: I have won the race!
t But 1 sit and 1 dare not lift my eves
To look my soul in the face:
i (For yesterday Ht the door I found
A toy and a rose trampled on tho
ground.) .
