There has been much taIk about AtIanta S smoke.

There has been much talk about Atlana's smoke
Council and the smoke commission disagreed about how to
handle the problem The smoke commission has amended liberal
ordinance declaring stringent but the city attorney ruled
that the commission acted without authority.
The impressive fact though that the majority of
the people of Atlanta have definitely made their minds that the
smoke nuisance must be abolished.
They tired of having their offices filled with They
tired of breathing bad air They tired of paying
laundry bills They tired of losing thousands of dollars
nuay They tired of having their city and
themselves always soied.
They know that smoke nuisance stopped and they
inconsderate the

When the Chamber of Commerce launched movement to
eliminate smoke from Atlanta expert said could be
done reasonable degree within 80 days The smoke ordinance
has been law for than two months.
The people elect their councimen control their municipal

Gas you see in the photograph, in
the open air on a stage resembling
parterre in front of a castle, and
with great audience seated under
the sky, they gave representations,
by famous actors and actresses. OF
classic French dramas. recalling
the manners, costumes and scenes
of the olden ages. 1t was an eXhi-
bition of the French sense of the
harmony OF things which we do
not possess as perfectly as they do.
One of the plays presented on
this remarkable stage was The
Cid of the celebrated dramatist
Corneille. The Cid" is drama of
the heroic days of Spanish chivalry,
which brings before our eyes the
ideas and the doihgs of an age
which has not ceased to be inter-
esting because it is past.
But on this occasion the repre-
sentation derived a thrilling inter-
est from the fact that the vanished
inhabitants of Carcassonne who
pIlt6 u W cit OI llllS SpOl, WHO Wdlh6u
through these streets. who manned
these walls and kept watch from
these towers when an enemy's army
was seen approaching with it's bat
tering rams, its catapults. or it's
Culverins, and its armor glittering
in the southern sunshine-that
these people would have felt per-
fectly at home amid such scenes as
the actors were representing. More
than one Imaginative spectator half
expected to see watching faces,
armed men, women in strange cos
tunes, looking down from the old
walls at the sight of this revival,
on their own ground, of the scenes
and deeds of their day. One COM
mentator remarks that their ghosts
must surely have been there!
A Lesson For Us.
There is a lesson for us in this.
Because our past is relatively brief,
and our progress bewilderingly rap
i'd, we are apt to think too little of
bygone times We have no Carcass
some but we have glorious mem
cries of a great mast, and we ought
to cultivate them more.
