The caravan will include 250 nobles of Zamora temple from Birmingham, and at Clanton the Shriners' special will halt and take aboard 25 nobles who are in for fun.

 "I proclaim
 Tt has been said There is time for all things Having sown good seed, having been blessed with favorable sea sons, and having titled our crops well, the harvest is now with us.
 "We feel that the time has arrived to gather under the dome of our goodly temple the harvest of unregenerates that are scattered through the desert of Alabama and convert them into the finished product of 'Nobles of the Mys- tic Shrine.
 T, therefore, decree and order that you gather together the valiant hosts of Zamora in the oasis of Montgomery, Thursday, October 20, 1910, at 6:29 D. nl., then and there to celebrate the opening of the fall campaign.
 While there has been nothing doing for several months we have not been idle, but on the other hand have given much thought to the means that would best fit us for making our meet . ing more enjoyable, pleasant, snappy, and link you will mote results of this and this meeting.
 Be on time for the caravan will move at the hour named. "So have said,
 And he did The Potentate.

for Boys, near Atlanta, which institution he built up from a small, obscure local school into the best known academy for boys in the south Enthusiastic by na- ture, devoted to school work, and with an unlimited amount of energy, MT. Gard ner has done much to create a higher standard among the preparatory schools of Georgia. As vice president of the Association of Schools and Colleges of the Southern States Mir. Gardners ex- perience has brought him in intimate con- tact with the leading educators of the south. Few young men are more inti- mately acquainted with the educational conditions in this section, and few teach CTS have achieved a greater measure of success. both financially and in an edu- cational way than Professor Gardner.
 The Massengale Advertising Agency has conducted a successful department of college and school advertising for a num- ber of years. The growth of this school advertising has been remarkable each year and they have decided to put one of the best college men in the south at the head of it. The fact that they have chosen Professor Gardner is an assur- ance that this department of their bus mess will be of far greater importance to schools and colleges in the south, and that the value of this class of bus mess will be greatly increased in the future.

GaIion Is Round Over

Red Bay, October 19.-(Special.-B. Gallon, the mill man who was arraigned in justice court yesterday. charged with assaulting Joe Rogers, mail carrier from Eastman, Miss, a small village nine miles south of this place, was given bail to appear in court two weeks hence. The statements of the two men concerning the affair are entirely diff ferent. Rogers claims that Gallon at tackled him without warning and began beating him with piece of timber, and remarked that he was mistaken in the man, thinking him to be brother of Rogers. Gallon states that when he asked Rogers concerning the sh ooting of his dog that Rogers remarked that he did not shoot the dog, but that he would shoot him, and attempted to draw weapon from his pocket. Further more Gallon states that he has an eye witness to prove his statements. Dr. Toomer, the attending physician, stated this evening that the injuries were seri- ous and that Rogers was in critical condition.

players, who suffer hardships and are often stranded A faithful picture is given of the life led by such people be- fore they have reached their ''palmy days" and there Is enough realism in the treatment of the play to give it great in terest. The pathos is also of kind that
 grips even the most blase theatregoer and catches his heart unawares.
 Lafayette Towers Is a typical "Thes- pian," rantng and grandiloquent. but blessed with an optimism that rises su- preme over all the adversities of a hard fife. He laughs away his cares and turns trouble aside with a merry jest. His humor, his merriment and his generous heart could weather any storm.
 Margaret Druce, the orphan child of players, becomes the ward of Towers, and he devotes his life to making her a great star. Years of toll and hardship are rewarded with blaze of glory that makes every dream come true and thrills the irrepressible Towers with a pride such as words cannot express. Yet, he is not altogether irrepressible, for the fame which has come to Margaret leaves Towers, whlom star of transformers. outclassed and as he supposes, derelict.
 Another man has come Into Margaret s
 life, younger man than Towers, but he proves unworthy and the love that she believed herself to have for him is for gotten. Then, in the crowning moment of her career, when fame and fortune lie
 at her feet and when the merry com panion and preceptor of her childhood has grown somewhat crestfallen as he con templates the road without his Mag. gie," there comes the real love to Mar garets heart, and she gives her hand to Towers.
 In the part of poor player MT. Skin ner has a role which is exceedingly fine and lovable and is, besides, imbued with the most delightful comedy. It is sell dom that we meet in the stage or in a book with a character who wins his way so surely and inevitably to all hearts. It was case of an exceptionally capable actor masquerading in his own art and the success with which he achieved this paradox was worthy of MT. Skinner at his best.
 The support was excellent. Miss Izetta Jewel as Margaret Druce proved fully equal to every requirement. of her part and combined with a gracious personality and womanly charm well-balanced art. Edward Fielding as Knollingsworth Brean, a worshiper of Bacchus, did fine bit of comedy work as an intoxicated man, The drinking scene between MT. Fielding and MT. Skinner was one of the most enjoyable parts of the play. A. G. Andrews as Isador Blum, the manager, played the part in a highly humorous way, and proved to be character actor of marked ability. Alfred Hudson, Jr., as Dick Prentice, acquitted himself very well in a rather thankless part, and Miss Jesise Cromette as a landlady was good. The entire company was capable and the performance was one of the most enjoyable given at the Jefferson in a

Walker Appointed

R. H. Walker, editor of the Athens Democrat" and one of the best known residents of Limestone county, was to- day appointed by Gov. B. B. Conner as immigration commissioner of Alabama. Appointment of such a commissioner was auth orized at the 1907 session of the legislature, but 1t was delayed by the states chief executive owing to the fact that appointment up to this time had not been deemed advisable.
 Editor Walker will confine his atten- tions chiefly to the immigration ques- ton as 1t Is presented to Alabama, and will endeavor in every way to promo te the agricultural and industrial interest of the state. This will be done by means of trips throughout the country. The chief endeavor of MT. Walker will be to turn the tide of immigration in the direction of this state.
 In making the appointment of MT. tion to a generally increased interest in the agricultural sections of the state.
 Governors Statement
 "At it's first session the present leg islature enacted an immigration statute and left to the governor the appoint ment of a commissioner. Because of the business depression existing in Ala bama and in the United States 1t was not at that time thought advisable to appoint an immigration commissioner nor to embark actively in the immigra- ton business The experience of the Carolinas and of Georgia had not at that time been very successful.
 q stated to the legislature, at a called session, my reasons for not hay ing carried out the intent of the statute. and suggested that 1t be repealed if 1t were thought wise. The legislature by resolution continued the statute but left the advisability of the appointment of a commissioner to my best Judgment
 "Condtions in Alabama have greatly changed within the last two years and now our agricultural and industrial de- velopment demand a number of new and good citizens who can prove of great benefit in the upbuilding of our state. So I have named Hon. R. H. Walker of Limestone county as immi- grafton commissioner and bespeak for
