ACTRESS SONGS
STOP NEAR
Burning Fuse Alarms Forsyth
Audience, But Lillian Shaw
Brings Quiet Back.

Matchmaking the classic stuff
may have power to soothe the savage
breast, but it takes up-to-the- minute
Yiddish ragtime to put the finishing
touches to a theater panic. This was
demonstrated last night at the Forsyth
when Lillian Shaw the singing com
edienne, prevented a stampede when
fuse Of the spotlight in the balcony
blew out
Wherefore. Miss Shaw's friends are
making very much OF a heroine OF nef
today, and unless plans made by the
enthusiasts fall down she will be given
regulation levee by the fire sur
ferers" when she appears to sing her
life saving Yiddisher ragtime tonight
Soma AIlays Fright of Audienoe.
Miss Shaw was in the midst of her
second song last night when the spot
light in the balcony fared UP suddenly
and began belching smoke Ike olast
furnace Down in the orchestra people
looked around, saw the smoke and fire,
and got out of their seats preparatory
for rush to the door. In the balcony,
closer to the blazing spotlight, the peo-
pie were already hurrying toward the
exits and some were crying out IN
fright
Miss Shaw saw tnat the theater was
upon the very verge of panic Step
ping to the footlights, the actress mo-
TONED to the orchestra leader to con-
inue playing the refrain of her song.
Then she shouted to the frightened au-
dience
Nov. everybody sit down. This is
no fire I'm still here and were all go
ing to stay, for the next verse of this
song is a pippn."
The calmness and assumed care
lessness of the actress helped out her
reassuring smile. and the audience sank
back into its seats again.
Second Flare up Adds to Disorder.
But a second f1are-up of the spotlight
threw several women into another fiut-
ter and once again a few Of the most
timerous cried out and moved again
toward the doors. But by now the
ushers had come TO the aid of Miss
Shaw. Manning the fire exits, they
cried out that there was no danger;
that only a fuse had burned out, and
that fire in the theater was impossi-
BILE, anyway
Then Miss SHAY played her trump
card
Here goes for that third verse" She
called across the footlights, and with
the orchestra to help her she dashed
into the rollic1ing Yiddisher rag again.
The audience listened to her to the
finish When she was done the smoke
had disappeared While Miss Shaw
made her change Cliff Gordon assured
the audience she was coming back.

MISS BARNNELL
WILL NOT RESIGN
Supervisor of Fairgrounds to
Tell Park Board 1t Broke
Contract, However.

Miss Mary Barnwell, supervisor of
Atanta's Fairgrounds, will not resign,
as was predicted by Dan Carey. general
manager of parks, when the park board
elected Miss Fannie Spahr director of
Minis park playground over Miss Barn
wells protest.
However Miss Barnwell will write a
letter to the park board stating that the
board broke its contract with her when
it failed to accept all her nominations
for subordinates. But her attitude is
that the playground work is too impor-
tant to be interfered with by her per-
sona feelings. She has just attended
the convention of the Playground Asso-
citation of America at Cleveland at the
city's expense.
Miss Barnwell will return tot Atlanta
for the opening of the Fairgrounds next
Monday.

Atlanta "Peaches" Are Called Lazy
GIRLS URGED TO SWIM

Are Atlanta girls, the pride Of the
South, listless and lazy?
Mrs. w. B. McKerall, of 14O Cres-
cent avenue, an exponent of swim
ming as the preservative of perennial
youth. thinks so and doesn't hesitate
to express her opinion. And worse
than that, Mrs McKerall says they are
at most times uninteresting and-this
really can't be true-silly!
To tell the truth, Mrs. McKerall in
simulated ever so gently that the far
famed peaches Atlanta has been so
proud of might be-but it's really too
cruel to repeat
Piedmont Fount of Youth.
All these terrible things came out in
a talk by Mrs. McKerall on the bene-
fits of swimming for women She has
discovered that the lake at Piedmont
park is the fountain of youth and
wants the women and girls of Atlanta
to know it, but she's a wee bit afraid
they won't get there unless somebody
takes them out in an automobile. For
Mrs. McKerall is sure the Atlanta
girls greatest JOY is an afternoon in
buzz wagon.
IF the girls Of the city we're not so
lazy and insipid they would so to the
lake more often.7' she declared.
They could receive world of ben
efits there, but instead they disregard
all matters of health and physical de-
velopment just for the sake of a few
hours in an automobile spinning around
town or sitting on a porch where peo-
pie passing on the street may see
them.

But though her tender heart was GER

least one founding pup day, Aline
never had a real, regular dog Of her
own until she went visiting to Athens,
Ca couple of weeks ago. Down
there she was out motoring with COM

lie pup dashed across the road in front
Of the speeding machine and raced it
for half mile before finally disap-

The motoring schedule was aban-

The machine was turned about and
sent in search of that collie, and though

dog, bought it at prohibitive price
and brought it home.
1t is the collie in the picture. Its
name is Sport and for the first time
since she began gathering stray dogs
Miss Fielder has lost interest in the
vagabonds to lavish constant affection
upon the Athens beauty.
