HIGHER EFFICIENCY ' PRAISED IN REPORT Sees Ample Justification of Private Ownership of Roads in Achievements of Past Year. ete ae Washington, December, 26.—Amer- ican railroads are'completing a rec- erd year and have no intention of asking for another general. increase in rates, Thomas Dewitt Cuyler. chairman of the Association of Rail- way Executives, declared tonight in a statement revicwing the railroad “ situation for the year of 1920. . The year just ending, Chairman Cuyler asserted, saw American rail- roads placed again under private op- _ eration and under such direction saw . them move a larger groes tonnage ee, 7 > ; than ever before and -also estab- lish new records in the amount of transportation gotten out of each ear. These records; Mr. Cuyler add- ed, were not achieved by the ,rail- roads alone, but with the aid of shippers in unloading cars and with “the Gay and night, rain or shine, work of hundreds of fhousands of employes.” The Railway Executive associa- tion chairman referred in his re- view to reports that the railroads plan to ask for further increases in rates, and in that connection said: Deoesn’t Expect: Rate Raise. “T know of no movement on the part of the railroads. for a general increase in rates, nor do I expect any. It ie true that the railroad companies are not yet receiving from the increased rates anything like the 6 per cent return needed. But the railway executives realize that they are trustees of a great public intérest in the reduction of railroad operating expense& to the lowest possible figure, and every effort will be made during the com- ing yeax to accomplish this by fur- ” _ ther economies and efficiency. x The a : companies since retutn of their lines to private operation last, March 1, wete set forth by Chairman Cuyler as follows: list of Achievements. . “Increase in the average move- ment per freight car per day 6.3 miles—from 22.3 to 28.6 miles. . “Increased the average load per car 1.7 tons—from 28.3 to 30 tons. “Made substantial reduction in the number of unserviceable locomo- tives. ; “Reduced the accumulation of loaded but unmoved. freight cars from 103,237 on Mardh 1 to 21,991 on December 3, of whfiph only 6,386 were detained because of the inabil- ity of the railroads to move them. “Re-located approximately 180,000 box cars from the east to the west for the movement*of farm produce. “Re-located approximately 1380,v00 ¢pen-top cars from the west to tne east to keep up the production of écoal, oe Moved the third highest coal production in the history of the country. “Spent pees $500,000,000 extra on maintenance of improvia the “ - cars and locomo- tracks, bridges, tives. = “Contracted to spend about $259,- 000,000 largely out of earnings for additions and betterments to pro- mote movement of ears. “Made arrangemerts to purchase approximately 60,000 new freight ears, 1,500 new locomotives § and 1,000 new passenger cars. “Begun the Pg : e " : Se | | ; ae Ps ee | , é —t es ~ | ; ae \/ t , Wn RD Lao ' ' i ' t Xe oa: , ! , | - + ee ee ee ee REV.

Pirmingham, Ala., December 26.— Characterizing the killing of Pri- vate James Morgis at Nauvoo, in Walker “county. last Wednesday night as the “result of the vieious and hellish advice of unprincipled men who have no regard for the law,” General R. HE. Steiner, com- mander of the state troops policing the coal mine sections, issued a ger- eral order yesterday pledging that the national guard of Alabama “will never rest until the assassin :s brought to justice.” The order also provides that as a tribute to the memory of Mor- ris, the headquarters of the nation- al guard, wherever it may be, either wholly or in part, will in the future be known as Camp James Morris. General Steiner’s order follows: “Headquarters, the Commanding Jeneral, Camp James Morris, Bir- mingham, Ala., December 25, 1920. “On the night of December 22, 1920, Private James-Morris, compa- ny M, Fourth Alabama infantry, while in the performance of his military duty, was assassinated from ambush, supposedly by a strikin minor as a/result of vicious an hellish advice of ‘unprincipled men who have no regard. for the law.’ “Private James Morris was an ideal soldier, and the supreme sacri- fice he made was as patriotic an end as ever gloriously came to any man in uniform. “The national guard of Alabama herewith pledges the people of the state that it will never rest until his assassin is brought to justice. “In memory of James Morris, the headquarters of the national guard of Alabama shall hereafter be known as Camp James Morris.

This building will be a central headquar- ters for members of fraternal or- ders and will, according to plans made by several lodges, be surround- ed by smaller buildings erected: by individual lodges for their mem- bers. The Maccabees, who are said to have funds already at hand for erec- tion of a proposed building, will shortly begin a series of entertain- ments in this city, it is stated, to secure additional funds. They will also call for volunteer subscrip- tions from their membership in the southeastern states.

It was orderly and yet it carried | with it all the heart-rending scenes | of rapid escapes from the With blood and the torch in the wake—the sequence’ of a cause, however glorious to the confeder- ate heart, that was rapidly losing at the moment. In the escape on that day some Mason of Atlanta, perhaps a sol- dier, maybe the father of a soldier, sought to take with him his cher- ished lodge apron and “regalia, beautifully and expressively made, and claimed by him as one of those sacred earthly possessions that Should not find its way into enemy hands, or become prey to the de- struction of enemy fires. Dropped Regalia. In the excitement of evacuation he dropped the unwrapped parapher- nalia, and it was picked up by James G.

Congressman Monahan, a member of the Evening Star lodge, and representative from the Third Wis- consin district, has been asked by his lodge, to present this parapher- nalia as a Christmas present, and with that purpose in view the Wis- consin statesman has appealed to Congressman Upshaw, of the Atlan- ta district, for help.

Sunday the beams of old So] were hidden by clouds which over- cast the sky all day, but which made little pretense at threatening rain until the afternoon*was nearly spent. The churches, in most of which special Christmas services were held, were crowded with worship- pers at the morning services. In the afternoon hundreds motored out through the city’s invirons. Still others preferred the comfy indoors, the weather offering an appropriate invitation to both. Swarms of kid- dies, recipients from Santa Claus of velocipedes, roller skates, “scooters,” bicycles and other outdoor convey- ances, were testing out their new toys. If it did rain along toward the night nobody felt any inclina- tion to complain. According to the forecast for Georgia of the United States weath- er bureau at Washington, there will be more rain today, but Tuesday will be fair and colder, with etrong, shifting winds.

If the enlarged capacity provided by the companies during the past nine months (since re- sumption of private operation) had had to be produced by new cars and locomotives, it would have required the expenditure of approximately $2,000,000,000, a sum of money which would have been permanently added to the property value of the rall- roads as a measure. “Private ownership and operation of the railroads as a measure of scund public policy,” said Mr. Cuy- ler in concluding his review, “rests largely upon its superior efficiency and economy.

Washington, December 26.—No holiday has been taken by the wom- en working in behalf of the Shep- pard-Towner maternity bill. They remained on the job until hearings by the house committee ended Fri- day and are ready to besiege the capitol again Monday.’ Their insis- tence that the house lose no time in “tndorsing the action of the senate, which passed the bill, grows out of their desire that it be placed before the legislatures of forty § states, meeting this winter, in order that these states may accept its. pro- visions and make the appropria- tions to match the federal appro- priation provided by the bill. Most of the legislatures will not meet again for two years, and one, at least, not again for four years. The pupular demand for the meéeas- ure, as evidenced by resolutions and messages pouring into the capitol, is said to exceed anything congress previously has known. “The wom- en are rising and the babies are in arms for this ‘bill,” one wearysmem- ber of the house declared after an effort to glance over one day’s mail. 2.50 very cont 1 ; i | ; j ; } ! 1| WHITE PROVISION COMPANY DOUBLES CAPITAL STOCK Announcement has been made gf an increase in capita stock of the White Provision company $150,000 to $300,900, all but $40,000 of which has been already § sub- scribed.

LIVE STOCK AND MEAT. Prices generally are on the de- cline; business generally is read- justing itself, in orderly fashion, to a normal peace-time level. ’ After awhile, the process com- _ pleted, the commerce of the coun- try will again be on a stable basis and universal prosperity will be the order of the day. But everybody must admit that in the existing price schedules, particularly those governing food products of the farm, there is an unwholesome, and apparently un- necessary, disparity between the prices paid to producer and those paid by the consumer. A day or two ago, for example, dressed turkeys were retailing in Atlanta at 60 cents a pound, while at the same time, according to a news dispatch from Moultrie, Ga., “turkeys alive and fresh from the barnyard” were “bringing 30 cents a pound” to the farmer. What was done to those turkeys between barnyard and butcher's block that doubled their value? Again, to quote further from the Moultrie dispatch—Moultrie, by | his charge was not only greatly exaggerated, but wholly uncalled- for. The verdict is that the sweep- ing charges of the former marine corpse chieftain were based “on no proper grotitids,” yet the court ad- mitted that, naturally, “it was in- evitable some offenses should be committed chargeable to ordinary defects of human character.” Its conclusion was that the charges, as a whole, were “ill considered, ranted reflections” on a body of men “which had performed diffi- cult, dangerous and delicate duty entitled to the highest commenda- tion.” There is no finer military or- ganization in the world, in respect : to personal character, heroism and all-round fitness and - efficiency, than the American marines—our “soldiers and sailors, too’ For that reason in particular proof of the truthfulness of Gen- eral Barnett’s unfortunate charges of inhumanity and wanton brutal- ity would not only have proven a sad disappointment to a countr proud of its marines, but would upon the morale of this splendid and always dependable arm ef our defensive forces. As it is, we may all feel grati- fied that in this instance the ma- rines “came clean,” as they are trained to do, and as they always have done—which is traditional. A JUST PENALTY. Having employed and exhaust- ed the various and customary re- sources, such as demurers, post- ponements, continuances, appeals, etc., Edward A. Rumely, former proprietor of a New York metropo- litan daily mewspaper, charged with insidious pro-Gerreanisn: dur- ing the war, has finally been brought face to face with a jury, found guilty, and sentenced to a term of years in federal prison. The weight of the testimony and documentary evidence adduced in support of the government’s in- dictment was overwhelming; and no doubt remains but that justice was done. This man did not come out boldly and say that he sympathiz- ed with Germany when Germany was slaughtering Americans and bending every energy to humiliate and overpower and crush the United States. Had he done that, and fought his country openly he would at least have been entitled to a modicum of admiration for his boldness. But his crime was far more in- iquitous and reprehensible than even that would hav@ been, for interwoven through it was hypoc- risy, deceit and treachery. Rumely secured Prussian money the way, being the leading pack- |through an agent of the Prussian inghouse center. and one of the | government, and with it he pur- main live steck markets of Geor- gia— “Pork prices wholesale have now dropped to the levels of April, 1917, when the United States entered the war, according to an announcement made by packers here. But ham and bacon, chops and roasts in re- iail shops in Moultrie and other towns in this section of the state do not seem to have heard the news. Prices to consumers may have fal- ien some, but the decline in most vases has been so slight that it is hardly perceptible. “Careass beef at wholesale, too. has jumped out of the balloon with- out a parachute, to the distress of the cattle growers. But sirloin and porterhouse over butcher counters have not followed.” If pork, on the hoof and at wholesale, has declined to pre- war prices, what is keeping baton and cured hams from following? If the grower of pork and beef and poultry must accept pre-war prices for his product, why should not the consumer enjoy the bene- fit of lower prices? These are pertinent questions; tho housewife and the laboring man who is struggling to “make ends meet,” have a right to ask them, And sooner or later they are go- ing to demand that they be an- ‘swered, and answered satisfacto- rily. The business man, who; in this ticklish period of réadjustment, is not contenting himself with fair and legitimate profits is neither patriotic nor wise. _—-oo- A GRATIFYING VERDICT. America was. shocked some months ago when Brigadier Gen- eral Barnett, former commandant of the marine corps, issued a pub- lic protest against what he char- acterized “the practically indis- criminate killing of natives that has been going on for some time” during the occupation of Haiti by American marines. The charge, of course, called for an investigation, following which the marines were given practically a clean bill, by which America is gratified to as great a degree as it had been shocked by the origi- nal bill of accusations. During the investigation, which was conducted by a court of in- quiry composed of Admirals Mayo and Oliver and Major General a | " } Neville, General Barnett admitted had placed the number of times what it should have been, the court found, 5 ae ae a Fle chased a newspaper and concealed the fact both from the American government’s custodian of alien property and from his readers. To the masses, to all save the few German intriguers, who were in his confidence, he represented himself as being a loyal, patriotic American, qualified by virtue of his vocation to give dependable coun- sel during a perilous crisis. All of which he did for a price— for a money-price! ' Truly, as The New York Tribune puts it— “It is difficult to imagine a more obnoxious crime, and though his plight may be pitied sympathy dries up at thought of the nature of his offense. No longer can an honor- able calling boast that the success- ful corruption of a representative American newspaper is impossible.” Such a man will receive scant sympathy from the public in his months and years of retribution. He is entitled to none. KEEP TO THE FRONT! The Philadelphia Record, in an article on advertisers and non- advertisers makes the point that the merchant who doesn’t adver- tise, still ‘constantly advertises in a negative sort of way, the fact that he is unenterprising and be- hind the times.” That is the way the wide-awake, buying public regards him: He doesn’t keep up with the proces- sion. It is, in the estimation of the buying readers of the advertis- ing columns, as if he had nothing worth while to sell. “It can be demonstrated,” says our Philadelphia contemporary— “Not only by figures but by prac- tical ‘example, that good advertis- ing in good mediums, such as daily newspapers of wide influence and circulation, will sell more merchan- dise per dollar of investment than any other method of selling under the sun. “The statement of this fact is not an appeal to cupidity—it is an ap- peal to common sense.” The firm with the biggest holi- day business, in any line of trade, is the alert, wisely-advertising firm. And it judiciously distributes its adyertising throughout the year. The purchasing public has no chance to forget it. Good advertising is mutually beneficial. Both seller and buyer profit by it.

Says Farmer Must Change His Methods Editor Constitution: The poor farmer has worked twelve months and now in place of receiving any- thing is having his home and stock and everything taken from him. It makes me think of how the south was treated after the civil war when Sherman and his army came through, after they had killed thou- sands of the best men, and took all of the provisions, stock, etc., and left the widows and children with- out food, or even a shelter to stick their heads under, having burned their homes. But Mr. Farmer, I ask who is to blame? If we will hold our cotton until May and not buy one bag of fertilizer, the cot- ton we have on hand will advance enough to make a profit, together with another ten million-bale crop tor next year. Or if the farmer would plant eatable crops on just what he can fertilize, and three or four acres to the horse in cotton, he would get pay for his labor, as the speculators would see that he meant buSiness. But the speculators know that there is no pulling together with the farmers and that they will Plant everything in cotton seil it tor 5 or 6 cents a pound. So you see, the farmer is to blame for these low prices. If the farmer would fish or rest, and plant the biggest part of his farm in hog feed and raise some- thing to eat, he would be in the best shape to live of anyone on earth, Hundreds who are selling their cotton seed for 30 cents a bushel will pay double the amount for seed in less than ninety days. fo, as I am a farmer myself, I will say that of all fools, the farmer is the biggest. There is one more way the farmer could succeed. If Mr. Wanamaker could form a company with not less than $150,000,000 and buy and ship cotton, and not have any dealin with the speculators, with a capita stock of that amount he could han- dle them. The farmer has always said what he was going to do when in reality he has never done any- thing. The speculators in Wall street, New York and Liverpool, ogg to who, I am sure, would not know a stalk of cotton from a bat, if they were to drive along a field and see it growing. have always told Mr. Southern Farmer what his cotton was worth and Mr. Farmer has been obedient in taking the speculators’ prices. While the speculators have grown to be multi-millionaires and the farmers have grown to be pau- pore and will continue to be such as ong as they plant big crops of cot- ton and buy big bills of fertilizer.

O. McINTYRE New York, December 26.—From The Times building looking north into the dazzling gulch of roaring Broadway at dnight there are sounds and sights that are bewild- ering and leave an indelible impres- sion. Night has become brighter than day aided by the glow from the athletic chewing gum kids, the leaping kitten, the auto races and a thousand other electric signs. The heavy electric yoltage seems to surcharge the people with new life—for Broadway is the widest awake at the stroke of 12. A hun- dred pianos are jangling in the box- like music shops. There is a spar- kle in every eye and the crowds mill and jostle about with rare good nature. It‘ is the hour when Broadway shows-off. Half of the crowds are strangers who wonder how New Yorkers are peacefully slumbering in homes on quiet streets. The aN- night photo shops have lines wait- ing—and the faces under the heavy } mercury lights are sea-green and grinning. The loungers are packed under the hotel canopies—many of them in quest of a great adventure. The night-birds are in gay plumage. They beckon with artful twists of the head and flashes of smiles. Al- ways at night there weaves in and out the twitching, hollow-eyed fel- low with his coat collar turned up and his cap pulled down. He is searching for a dope peddler. The lobbies of the shady hotels are darkened. Their guests do not care for the garish display of light of the: usual lobby. Women, who have not removed the make-up of the chorus, slip in and out of the lunch rooms with buckets of steam- ing coffee. It is their hour of re- laxation and the theatrical boarding houses hum with gaiety. The patient tired woman fs still | up selling the Birth Control Maga- zine. She has the face of an aris- tocrat. And she pays no attention to the coarse jokes of the “passing throng. The first editions are cried by the old men who cannot compete against the youthful day hustler. The price is doubled at midnight: In an hour the crowds will have drifted away, but it is a fast and a hour of excitement while it asts. Two fires in theatrical boarding houses have contributed ,incidents to the mirth of a nation. In one a young woman discovered when she had been rescued that her lit- tle white pet pig was not saved, so she rushed back and saved it— just like that. At another a ma- tronly woman rushed to the street to discover that she was clad only in the sheet from her bed which she hac thrown around her hastily. She rushed back frantically to clothe’ herself, but in her excite- ment merely put on a hat and rush- ed back again in the sheet—carry- ing in one hand a powder puff. Down with Narcissus! New York elevators are too busy for him. The superintendent of the Bank of Com- merce building has taken all the the mirrors from the lifts.

Health is a funny thing, really. If you’ve got it you keep quietly chuckling to yourself all the time— something tickles you inside. I made some allusion to this de- lightful sensation that goes with health plus in one of my talks, and some sad lady took me severely to task for it. She told me it was most unbecoming of me and bDe- trayed a very selfish nature, and furthermore it was cruel and wick- edeof me to crow and chuckle over my fine health, and so many thou- sands of people with. such poor health that they would give al- most anything for one short day of relief. Do you suppose they have sepa- rate compartments in heaven, and assign entrants to their proper compartments? I hope so. I want to go to that section of heaven where a fellow can be glad he’s happy. I hope they won’t make any mistake and put me in with the angels whose happiness is spoiled by the knowledge that some other angels may not be so happy as they. Rgther than that I'd prefer to go to the devil. From what I’ve seen of him this latter citizen of the hereafter seems to be a cheerful fellow, at any rate. There is a fine distinction which must be made between health and disease. Health, an exceedingly rare state, is the perfect function- ing of the body. Disease is any im- pairment or disturbance of any function. Disease is not funny at all, except a few instances among the neighbors. The great trouble With disease is that it inevitably produces symptoms. Symptoms are the. manifestations of disturbed functions. state. Ninety-nine out of a hun- dred who have ordinary, fair health, as the saying is, really have some disease, nothing serious, you under- stand, just some functional impair- ment that keeps them from enjoy- ing that funny feeling I mentioned at the béginning. You see what I’m getting at, don’t you? Sure. They have some symp- toms. Some people set out in life to trail symptoms, and sooner or later they find plenty of them. They carry banners inscribed with huge minus signs. They are pessimists. They have a lot of bad blood stagnating in their splanchnic veins. They are great readers of almanacs and tes- timonials; both forms of literature are replete with symptoms. Other people go out after better health and select for their banners plus signs. They’re optimists. If they have anything to be happy about they get a glad on and save their long faces for a rainy day. The symptom propaganda, so in- dustriously conducted by the quacks and the patent mediciné sharks in America and Canada in the past century or more, accounts for a good half of all the ill health of the people today. Answer me this: Have you ever known a nostrum hound who wasn’t a pessimist? QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. A Popular ding. I was aware that you do not pre- scribe for readers.

When someone whom you have trusted proves untrue, there comes to you a grief so poignant it seems that half the world has lost its light. Like when something goes wrong with the electric connections and you are left alone in a great room that a minute before was bril- liant with light. ; I like babies—and childrer. I be- lieve it is because they live ina world of trust. Put a baby ona table and tell it to jump off—and it will do so because it trusts you. Take trust out of the world and you leave it without a heart. Trust is the cornerstone of char- acter. Without it business would crumble as though built on dry sand. Trust is the thing that ties friends together. When you go to sleep in your railroad berth, you do so in perfect confidence, because you’ trust the engineer. If people trust you, you may well be glad. For to be trusted is great- er than to be the ruler of a coun- try or to own a bushel of rare dia- monds. When folks mistrust a store or a business, or a man—then it is that the end of each begins to loom. Be deeply proud of your abijjty to trust. Guard the trust of others in you as you would your very life. And to trust yourself is not the least in trusting. Trust is where all things start. Each night we close our eyes and trust the great God to keep us safe —and then we fall asleep—trusting Him further in our dreams to bring us to day again, or to take us into a happy eternity if He thinks best. It seems to me that you lean backward in your attempt to be ethical. (Mrs. P. B. A.) ANSWER—My dear friend, ethics is not concerned. You labor under a popular misapprehension, assum- ing that it is a doctor’s province to Prescribe drugs and nothing else. As a matter of fact, medical prac- titioners today prescribe many other remedies than drugs, among them diet and exercise. I am incapable of prescribing drugs, exercise or diet for individual cases without age J such pergonal knowledge of the circumstances as I may obtain through a personal examination only. It is a matter of fair deal- ing to the reader, not to myself. In fact, if you will take the trouble to investigate, you will find that our. much maligned code of medi- cal ethics is prattically nothing but fair dealing for the patient, and not an unreasonable and selfish set of rules for the physician’s personal benefit.

Mr. Thomas. Jackson whose special study of the migration of 1916-1917 was publish- W oofter, ed by the United States Department of labor, has treated this subject in a manner so that “all who run may read” with profit, in his new book negro recently printed by W. D. Gray, publisher, New York City. For the southern planter and landlord whose cotton was unpicked, and whose land was unworked during the great exodus of black folk to the north, in 1916-1917, or who still bemoans the instability of negro labor, Mr. Woofter’Ss “Negro Migration” will prove a handbook of immediate in- terest and value. The northern manufacturer who makes increasing use of negro labor from the south will also find this little volume well worth his study. Why the negro left his home in the south: how he fares in factory and city at the north; what share higher wages and what share race feeling and grievances play in such shifting of negro population. Mr. Woofter’s book has, to a large de- gree disclosed in a manner both readable and able. Years of study on this peculiar problem have giv- en the writer a position of unques- itioned authority. No landowners fa- miliar with the tenant system of the south, can read Mr. Woofter’s | keen analysis of the respective mer- its of share cropping, share rent- ing and cash rent, without knowl- edge that the writer is no mere theorist. With his intimate knowledge of southern rural life, and the condi- tion of the negro In the country and city, the author of “Negro Migra- tion” has skillfully disclosed cer- tain economic causes ofthe present unrest and shifting of negro popu- lation, while he has also stated the causes of unrest among negroes, which comes under the head of “treatment,” and for which he sug- gests some specific and immediate remedies. While the book discloses amazing progress by the negro in land ownership, education and In- dustrial skill, the author gives warning that disastrous migrations of the south’s chief labor forces are not due alone to ecenomic pressure, but in a la~ge part’to other caueses which our colored population have come to regard as grievances, Among several constructive reme- dies for a state of mind which is increasingly prevalent among the colored people of the southern states, Mr. Woofter has praised the recent and successful organization of committees in the counties of the south, by the southern inter-racial committee. In this connection he Says. “Every local’ community should learn of its own responsibilty for sanitation in its negro. settle- ments, justice in its courts, law and order among its inhabitants, and a good school, churches and recreation facilities for all its people, whether white or black. The first step towards accomplish- ing this is the foundation of a com- munity committee, such as has been formed in the south by tne southern inter-racial committee. These com- mittees are composed of white and colored: leaders who can trust one another, and who meet and work together on the problems involving race relations. These men not only are able to avoid inter-racial dis- cord, but are in a position to for- ward constructive programs by modifying them so as to more near- ly fit the needs of the colored popu- Mition, and by arousing the interest of the colored population in their execution. SYDNEY D. FRI8SSELL HAPPY PARISIANS THRONG BOULEVARDS Paris, December 26.—Unusually mild Christmas temperature brought forth immeénse crowds of Parisians Saturday night who made the boulevards one vast animated throng. Caf... and restaurants all over the city were filled with mer- ry-makers and all the theaters were taxed to capacity. 3 After the close of the theaters great crowds filled the various churches for midnight masses van were celebrated with usual ™/ Frenchman to Lecture on Art Of Darde, Shepherd Sculptor “Paul Darde, the Shepherd Sculp- tor, and the Evolution of French Art,” will be the subject of the lec- ture to be given by Gaston Riou the official lecturer of the Alliance Francaise on Thursday, December 30 at 3:30 o’clock in the auditorium of Marist college. Gaston Riou, who is sent to the United States and Canada by the French government, is a writer of great talent. His two famous books, “Aux Ecoutes dé la France Qdi Vient” and “The Journal d’ un Simple Soldat,” have been trans- lated in English, in Spanish, in Swedish. The first named, written in 1913, has made a sensation in France, and has been the subject of much discussion in political and lit- erary circles in Germany. Karl Lamprecht, the great Pangermanist historian, has made speeches on that book in Dresden. The well-known journalist, Maxi- milian Harden, wrote in The ZuKunst that the publication of such a book was an evident proof that France was not the decadent nation that Germany pretended that country to be, and that Germany would have to reckon with that new ardent generation to which the young author belonged. The book was written a few months before the great war. The heroes of the battle of the Marne and those of Verdun have verified the statements contained in that re- markable book. Vital Interest. The subject of Mr. Riou's lecture will be of vita] interest to all lovers of art, for he will speak of one of the greatest artists that France ever produced. Paul Darde, the shepherd sculptor of the Covennes mountains, who, at the age of 28, has been awarded the highest hon- ors which are in the power of France to offer to genius. Paul Darde’s life-story is like a fairy tale. While he tended his flocks he carved some of his mas- terpieces with a pick-axe. Great crowds have flocked to the salon to see his two masterpieces, “The Eternal Pain” _ “The Faun,” etc. The lecture is free to all mem- bers. The public will be admitted with a small fee at the door. Several young ladies—pupils of Mme. Spiker—will dance and pose in tableau vivants, contributing to the success of that fete. The Shepherd-Sculptor. The national prize for sculpture in France has teen lately awarded by the French government to a young man of 28 years, whose life- story is like a fairy tale. Paul Darde is the name of this man. He is working at present in a studio in Paris provided by the government and once used by Au- guste Rodin. Not since the days of Rodin has a French sculptor cre- ated such a sensation. Great crowds have flocked to the salon to see a two masterpieces, “Eternal ain’ ‘and “The Faun.” The first named has been bought by the gov- ernment for permanent preserva- tion in the Luxembourg gallery. The other will be placed in the Park at Versailles. His Early Life. Darde began his life as a shep- herd boy in the Cevennes moun- tains. While he tended his flocks he cut with a jack-knife the fig- ures of animals and men in the soft gypsum of the region. A happy chance in 1908 brought his work to the notice of Max Theron, art pro- fessor at the Lycee of Lodeve, who wrote to Armand Dayot, editor of “L’Art et les Artistes,” calling his attention to the undeniable talent of the young shepherd. “Greedy to learn and possessed of the demon art.” M. Dayot was deeply impress- ed by the boy’s work, and gave him a chance to pursue his studies in the Montpellier School of Art. Military Service. When a little later Darde entered military service as a sapper in the engineering corps, he was fortunate in finding a sympathetic command- ing officer. who, like Dayot, en- couraged him to develop his gifts. From the army he passed to the Paris School of Yine Arte. - A friend helped him to visit Ita'v, -rious damake, land of his artistic dreams. He went with a light heart and a light- er purse. He has written of this period: “What more could I wish? I really did have to tighten my belt to make a visit to Michael- Angelo, Donatello, Massocio, Finto- retto and some of the others. slept on the floor of a third-class ratiroad car to economize my hotel bill. But in the beautiful Italian villages there are wonderful foun- tains of excellent water, and at that ae i a ts period a alice of sausage could be |} had for nothing. They were thw good times.” On his return to Paris, Darde sought out Auguste Rodin in his studio and worked with him for a while. But the great master and the shepherd boy could not agree, and after a fortnight parted abh- ruptly. The War. Then came the great war, and Darde took his place in the blood and mud of the northern trenches. His artistic career was checked, but not ended. In 1918 he resumed his interrupted studies. “Darde,” Mr. Sanborn, of The Bos- ton Transcript, tells us, “eschews clay models, realizing his concep- tions directly in stone or marble without other preliminary aid than a pencil drawing. He carves some of his masterpieces with a pick-axe and has signed his “Faun” with the saucy coquetry of genius ‘Paul Darde, tailleur de pierre’ (stone- cutter).” Paul Darde, at the age of 28, has gained the highest honors which are in the power of France to offer to genius.

Chucinnati il players, regarded from the‘ self- & standpvint of the players only, *would be about the worst thing the really good players could seek. It means an immediate and sharp de- erease of the hith salaric-s @#nd a small increase of thelow salaries. On the average the playere will lose. The chief reason why no players’ union in the past has succeeded has been that. as soon as the high priced tars discovered that they were like- ty to lose money, they lost interest, «dropped out and failed to pay dues. > ~The owners could handle the lower A vriced playérs because they can get ali the men of average ability they need. It seems an odd time for the play- ers to talk of a 50 per cent iIn- crease in the already inflated sal- ‘ari+xs. Baseball’is not going to be “a8 prosperous next year ae it has heen for the last two. No, nor for several years after that. Golf Needs a Peace League. Now golf is to have its war. The east and west are about to clash and wrestle for control of the game in the United States. The west claims that golf in America is being dam- nged because it is ruled by tradition and superstition. The east insists ‘nat it is divinely ordained to dic- tate in all golf matters. Just what the row is about is rather vague to an ordinary duffer. The chief point of difference ap- nears to be over the stymie rues, which to ninety-nine out of one hundred golfers means nothing at all. | I knew a fishing club once which hroke up and engaged in a Jong and bitter fieht over the question of tne fe ethies of catching weak fish. One '~ faction wanted it declared wrong - ~~ snd wicked to catch them with linen lines, urging that cotton thread only be used. The warfare between the coiton threaders and the linen liners raged merrily for one entire season. The present controversy in golf remains one of that. There is no reason whatever for any friction save that rertain constituted bodies desire to rule the entire field. No good will come to gold in America through such senseless strife. Golf has made “nd is making tremendous strides. if the clash between the U. S. G. A. end the Western G.

IT razee, how- ever, is a theatrical man first of all. He gambles big in shows and in theaters. To mortgage a theater or a show to get money to plunge on another is common in that busi- ness. But the insinuation credited to Johnson that, because he held a mortgage on the Red Sox plant Ruppert got Babe Ruth. is far- fetched. The~ security was ample fand almost anyone would have loaned the money on it. However, it has started a wild yelp from Boston for a change of ownership. Frazee has several times declared his willingness to sell the team. A home company of ostonians could probably buy the club now at the right price—and ul- timatelv baseball .clubs must be owned by individuals or companies representing the city as the club represents it. It is rather bewildering, at times in studying our sports to’ find two teams competing for the champlion- ship of something when neither is champion of anything. For _§in- stance. one reads in a New York paper that Elgin High school, cham- Pion of Chicago, is to play some team in Connecticut for the cham- pionship—probably of North Da- kota. 4 The next big international event was arranged that way, but, as it turns out, the United States is to be represented by a real champion this time. That event is the race over the Thomas Hare and Hounds course at Rochamption, near London, be- tween the harrierg of Oxford and Cambridge and those of Cornell. The great English universities planned the event as a return for the courtesies shown their teams by the Cornellians after the last Penn relay games. It so turns out, how- ever, that Cornell;can send over a team which has a clear title to the cross-country championship, as the eleven men who will represent America against the great English universities won the intercollegiate cross-country event at New Haven. Jack Moakley, the veteran Cor nell coach, is the father of cross- eountry racing in America, and the team he has chosen is representa- tive of our college distance runners. They are tackling the Britishers at their own game—and regardless of the outcome the event is:certain to be a boost for cross-country run- ning in American’ schools, than which there is no finer sport from the standpoint of endurance and gameness. / is eXpecting.

Big time in @very particular is che Keith vaudeville show opening at the Lyric theater with today’s | matinee. The bill is a triple head- line affair, featuring three vaude- ville gems, including some of the Newest novelties of the variety stage. The three headline acts will be “Six Imps and a Girl,” a spectacu- lar novelty, strikingly staged and amazingly executed with an amaz- ing girl dancer as one of the fea- tures; Dorothy ‘ Sherman’s Cameo Girls, a beautiful novelty of music. song and dance, and “The Four of Us,” a melodious quartet of men singers. Seats are how on sale for Midnight Frolic, dance and cabaret to be given at.the Lyric next Fri- day night, New Year's Eve. There will be dancing in the palm gar- the; den, special cabaret features and a | big time vaudeville show for the | first frolic of this kind ever given | in Atlanta. a Loew’s Grand. A big bill of all-star vaudeville ond special feature pictures opens | in An automobile accident. the last week of the year at Loew’s Grand. Each of the five acts pre- sented. has been selected with the idea of celebrating the holiday sea- son in “big-time” fashion, while the newest of the Loew-Metro su- | per-features, May Allison, in “Are All Men Alike?” is the pretentious attraction on-the screen. _ The Royal Four, a quartet of har- monists and comedians famous throughout the country for their “rube” characterizations, figure as a most welcome factor on the pro- gram. . Either in producing melody or generating high-speed fun, the Royal Four ravk with the best in the business. Everett’s. Monkey Circus, an ag- gregation of marvelously trained apes that. stage their own hippo- . drome without the presence of a trainer on the stage, stands as an- other important’ feature. The in- telligence displayed by the four- footed performers is almost uncan- ny and their offering is a riot. Grace DeWintres, one of the few girl ventriloquists behind the foot- lights. is among thoce present’ Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday. Of an entirely different nature is the contribution of Marietta Craig, dis- tinguished dramatic star, who pre- sents her celebrated “crook” play- Jet, “The Girl in the Dark.” Sie- grist and Darro, tumblers and jug- gliers, round out the bill. - | THEATERS ATLANTA THEATRE TONIGHT “Saou Mats.
