is not for them-but they all like
the turkey trot."
By the way, girls and boys-I hear
! that a new step-another new step,
! has been introduced at the Virginia
Hot Springs, which has quickly be-
come ''all the rage" with all who have
seen it. 1t is called the "Porter's
| Chuck" for the reason that it sug-
| gests the twirl, a strong armed man
| will give a trunk when he wishes
to move it rapidly across the floor.
| Strange as it may seem, the new
| dance is said to be by far the pref
| test one done at the Hot Springs,
Whether this is praise for the "Por-
ter's Chuck" or blame for the others,
l can't say.
| " TLANTA was not represented
~ numerically at the Memphis golf
tournament, which was too bad,
considering the support that Memphis
golf players gave to Atlanta's tourna-
ment last year. However, two of the
best golf players of the city, Mrs
Thomas B. Paine and Mrs. Robert
| Jones took part in the tournament
and came home with several silver
cups. l do not know the game, and
for, but they evidently represented
some good playing of some sort. l
saw in the Memphis papers that Mrs.
Paine was a social favorite among
the many visitors. She was given
several dinner parties and luncheons
at the country club and at private
residences. Mrs. Inman Sanders, one
of Mrs. Paine's charming sisters, lives
in Memphis and her friends made the
L. Of
cially as the game would allow Mrs
Paine's acceptance of Inequalities.
Mrs. Paine is a most enthusiastic
golfer. and she is noted as one of
Atlanta's very best dancers, not only
of the tango and the new" steps,
but in the cotallion and ballroom music
of other days" Her slender, grace
full figure should be an incentive for
other married women to play golf,
and in other ways become an advo-
cate of the strenuous life, so that
they may be like those the gods love,
who die young. no matter how long
they live.
HE moving picture actress opens
up new avenue for the I'M
employed society girls of the
day. 1t is the custom to become dis
satisfied with being just a nice girl,
and many of the society young wo-
men are trying to find a job. Quite
a sensation was caused by the decis-
ion of Miss Adele Rey, better known
as Evelyn Provost, a beautiful girl
and cousin of Mrs. John Jacob Aston.
10 enter upon the career of a moving
picture actress.
/ notice the Atlanta girls who
posed in a moving picture of an
ocean tragedy some time ago, are
praised by an authoritative magazine,
as being exceptionally fine actresses
for the work. These young women
however, have no intention of joining
the profession and the one picture
story in which they posed was an
accident, as far as they were con-
cerned. The girls of the picture Miss
Nina Gentry, Miss Alice Vandiver,
and Mrs. John ]. Woodside, Jr.. then
Miss Aline Gentry, were en- route to
Europe, and on the second or third
day out, a jolly fat man, whom NOV
ing picture patrons know as John
Bunny made his appearance, together
with all the artists, cameras and
other paraphernalia necessary to
make a story film. Bunny couldn't
do all the posing himself, so he en-
listed the services of some of the pas
sengers. among whom were the At
lanta girls.
The picture was posed by a number
of wealthy and prominent people, ev-
erybody kindly consenting to the
work, the more readily / suppose,
because they were "at sea. !" when
everything is amusing and something
to do is at a premium. The picture,
according to this magazine which
prints the story, has been a great
success, the amateur actors and ac-
tresses having produced a stirring
drama of the sea. Among the "ac-
tors" was Putnam Griswold, the IA
