where TEACHERS Will
Spend VACATION time
Each in His Own Way vii
RGCupGratG

Now that the strenuous work of
school days has been finished the
teachers of the High School faculty
will spend their vacation in various
ways and at various places.
Mr.. j. N Haddock, principal of the
High School, accompanied by Mrs.
Haddock, will spend the summer IN
Northern Georgia, visiting relatives N
Atlanta, Marietta and Roswell. They
will likely spend portion of their va
cation time in camping out delightfully."-
in the mountains of North Georgia.
Mr.. NJ. C. Austin will again take ID
hand the management of large peach
shipments from MarshalIvile, which
he has conducted with such signal
ability and dispatch for several sea-
sons past. He left for NIarshallville
Saturday, as the demands of the peach
season allowed him no further oppor-
tunity for recuperation at this time.
Mr. A N. Arnett will spend a major
portion of his vacation at Columbia
University, ew York, where he is study
ing courses leading to a masters de-
gree in English language and Iitera-
ture. He will not leave for New York
before July, the intervening time be-
ing spent at his home.
Mr.. Charles C. Crockett, who has
retired from teaching to take up the
practice Of law, will spend the month
of June most pleasantly in Americus,
an announcement that will delight his
many friends. Later he will summer
in Virginia, mainly at Ivanhoe. In the
fall he will enter upon the course in
law at Washington and Lee Univer-
sity.
Mr.. c. C. Youmans will retire at
once to Ocilla, his native heath, though
he is loath to leave Americas. There
in blissful idleness he will attempt a
bit of mental gymnastics in prepara-
tion for the more strenuous work of
the coming school year-that is, when
the temperature will permit of such
MIR. w. r. Kennedy will spend the
major portion of the summer season
in Americus, as has been his custom.
Here there will be matters of business
to require his attention during the siz-
zling days of June, July and August,
so that time will not hang heavily on
his hands.

BUSY At OPERA HOUSE
ALL OF THIS week
Artists in Vaudeville and Best
Of Pictures

This week the vaudeville season
opens up in earnest at this popular
theatre. Last week the Texas Quar-
let demonstrated the fact that the
patrons desire something more than
pictures to amuse, and notwithstand-
ing conditions were bad, the house
was packed at each performance. This
was such an encouraging sign that
Manager Dudley has gotten together
for the week six acts which will be
thoroughly pleasing.
1t consists of varied program, sen
sat;onal gymnasium work, singing and
eccentric dancing, novelty acts and
clever sister acts.
In addition to the classy vaudeville
acts, the pictures will be way above
the average. "The Fall of Troy" will
be given tomorrow night. This picture
is said 10 be by all who have seen ii
the most beautiful and stunning pic
tIre ever shown on a screen.
It cost to produce it the stupendous
sum of 100000, but then you can read
lily understand the great cost, as there
are over 1000 soldiers and gladiators
in action, to say nothing of the huge
scenic display
AS the Opera House is too small to
accommodate the crowds that viii
want to see this picture it has been
decided to put on a matinee tomorrow
afternoon at 4 o'clock in order to ac-
commodate patrons who cannot come
out at night. The management could
only book this film for one day, and
| if you miss seeing it tomorrow the
chances are that you will not see It
unless you are in some other city.
The matinee prices will be 10 and 20
cents. The night prices 1Oc, 15c and
25c.

AMERICUS MAN Wins In
CONTEST AT THE Tech
John 7, CIark's Fine Designs
Awarded First Prize

1t will be of interest to the many
warm friends of Mr.. John T. Clarke,
who is a student of architecture at
the Georgia School of Technology, to
know that in a recent contest of the
architectural society, which includes
the architects of the Senior, Junior
and Sophomore classes, the Grand
Prix" was awarded Mr. Clarke's de-
sign, and he was given a beautiful
picture of "Notre Dame a Parie." Also
in the regular sketch problem given
the Seniors and Juniors, his design
was awarded one of the two first
places. The designs were judged by
the head of the department, assisted
by an architect of note in Atlanta.
Mr.. Clarke's friends predict for him
well merited success in his chosen
profession

Every contestant should make hay
while the sun shines during the COM
ing week for the special prize offes
closes next Saturday night. There will
not be another opportunity during the
entire contest to get such a large num-
ber Of votes on subscriptions as will
be offered this week under the con-
tinuation of the special offer for the
SIS in gold.
After the present week closes, the
number of votes given for subscrip-
tons will decrease, instead of increas-
ing, so that there will never at any
other time be offered another oppor-
tunity to obtain such splendid re-
turns for subscriptions as are offered
all this week until next Saturday
night. Each contestant should not fail
to remember this and act accordingly.
In the revised list of contestants 1t
will he sen that Lee county and
Sch'|" county have been omitted from
the districts, as the interest manifest
ed in these two counties was so slight
as not to warrant the Offering of
prizes. :~ aFW
