DIR. WEDDINGS LECTURE.
His Treatment of "Mirnbeau and the
French Revolution"

His Treatment of "Mirabeau and the
French Revolution"
Dr. George r. Vending delivered his
lecture upon "Mrabeau and the French
Revolution" at the Guards Hall last
night. Unfortunately for the size of Mr..
Weddings audience and for the cause in
which the lecture was given. there we're
many other attractions in Savannah last
night, and the audience was not by any
means a large as it should have been
and as the lecture itself warranted.
The lecture was a sympathetic and
graphic portrayal of the conditions from
which sprang the French revolution and
of the environments in which was de-
veloped the strange character of Mira
beau-the mighty tribune of the people.
fine grasp of the niceties of the lam
guage and a scholarly choice in the use
of words and phrases distinguished DR..
Weddings handling of his subject
throughout
The audience to which DR.. Vending
spoke heard and followed him with close
attention and very frequently INTERRUPTED
his description of men and events with
appreciative applause. The theme was
one of absorbing Interest end 1t was
treated, from the viewpoint of the schol-
arly student OF history, with the keen
sympathy and appreciation of the mo-
tives Of others which denote the emo
tional nature.
Mirabeau was no saint, and DIR. Wend-
ling did not attempt to canonize him. The
leader of the people was pictured as a
man, with very many human faults and
frailties, but cast in an heroic mould. AS
his faults were large, so were his vir-
tues; there was nothing mean or petty
about him. Wherever he was, he was
leader and man He walked his path in
life with his head erect and he faced
death with a grim sni'e that must have
convinced that hoa-y s-eoter that here
WAS one WHO was rot aFr7id.
The lecture last night was given under
the auspices of the Georgia Society OF
Colonial DANES for the benefit of the
Oglethorpe monument fund.

Board of Health Proclaims an
Epidemic of Grip.
G. r II

Grip is here but of a mild type. 1t
still commences with catarrhal symptoms
aching of the limbs. marked lassitude and
a rise Of temperature, resembling the
commencing OF typhoid or malaria.
The convalescents are apt to be trou-
bled for a considerable period with weak
ness, general want Of physical tone-a
condition TO invite pneumonia
ParadoXical as It may appear, the light
attacks of grip are oftenimes more dam
gerous than the severe ones. as in the
former instances the patients are more apt
to be careless of themselves during the
weak physical conditions that follow.
