AT THE CASINO The Wills Musical Comedy company entered last night upon the third week of its engagement and played to r large audience composed of those who take a very real and personal Interest In the more gifted members of the organization, or who simply want to go where they are sure of Bearing some bright musie, seeing some pretty girls and laughing at some exceptionally clever comedians. Mr. Garneall continues to win gold en opinions for himself, his highly 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 tive musical numbers in this new play, and they are invariably ap plauded to the echo. Mlbs Jacques Bradley continues to he the star attraction of the program night she enraptured her audl once with an Imitation of Anna Held in her famous eye aong, the dainty j little Georgia soubrette proving more irresistible than even the world-famed | creator of the name part in "The Par-; Isian Model.” The name musical comedy will be seen at the Casino tonight, tomor row night and Wednesday afternoon, a change of bill being scheduled for Thursday night when "Sweet Sixteen” will be presented. THRO’A LORGNETTE 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 THE AlfcroSTA HERALD JUST OWE WORD that word is butt’s, it refers to Dr. Tutt's Liver Pills and MEANS HEALTH.

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!)
