IMPROVEMENTS AT
Tue gem THEATRE
CONTRACT LET FOR INCREASING
FLOOR SPACE THAT WILL pou-
BILE SEATING CAPACITY.

Architect Robert e. Lee has COM
pleted plans for elaborate changes at
the Gem theatre, and Manager Hirsch
has just let the contract for the execu-
ton of these plans to G. o. Eure. The |
room now being used by the Gem is |
to be consolidated with that adjoin- |
ing, in which the old Ruby theatre at
one time operated There will be
more than hundred per cent increase
in the seating capacity of this picture
show resort when the proposed
changes have been completed.
The latest system Of indirect light
ing to brighten the auditorium while
the picture plays are being given will
be installed. An elaborate cooling
and ventilating system will be in
stalled, for the, purpose of making the
place comfortable in warm weather
and of giving circulation of pure air.
The operating room for the picture
machine will be constructed so as to
make it practically fire proof. The
walls will be Ia inches thick, built of
brick Asbestos and iron shutters will
be installed so as to easily close
against fire in the event of such an
occurrence in the operating room.
The entire lobby, which will be the
width of the two rooms, will be re-
modelled.
Work is to be begun on the old Ruby
theatre first, and when it begins in
that part now being used by the Gem
it will be carried on at night after
shows, so that no interruption shall
occur in the performances now given
These changes have been found
necessary by Manager Hirsch, who
has for some time felt the need Of
more room to accommodate the grow
ing patronage which Hattiesburg II
giving his picture shows.
Other plans are in course of prep
aration looking to a remodeling o
the second and third stories OF tn,
building in which the Gem theatre 4

Advice To Young Men

Remember, my son, you have to
work. Whether you handle pick
or a pen, a wheelbarrow or a set Of
books, digging bitches or editing a
paper, ringing an auction bell or
writing funny things, you must
work. If you look around you will
see that the men who are the most
able to live the rest of their days
without work are the men who
work the hardest. Don't be afraid
of killing yourself with overwork.
1t is beyond your power to do that
on the sunny side of thirty. They
die sometimes but it is because they
quit work at 6 p. m. and don't get
home till 2 a. m. It's the interval
that kills, my son. The work gives
you an appetite for your meals; it
lends solidity to your slumbers; it
gives you a perfect and grateful
appreciation for a holiday.
There are young men who do
Newark post., 1913-08-13

not work, but the world is not
proud of them. It does not know
their names even; it SIMPLY speaks
of them as "old So-and-so' s boy"
nobody likes them; the great busy
world doesn't know they are there.
So find out what you want to be
and do, and take off your coat and
make a dust in the world. The
buster you are the less harm you
will be likely to get into, the
sweeter will be your sleep, the
brighter and happier your holi-
days, and the better satisfied will
the world be with you. -
Robert Burdette.

G. A. r. REUNION
AT CHATTANOOGA
Spanish War Veterans
Interested

The battlefields of Chattanooga
have an interest to something like
100000 Spanish-American war vet
Grams, as well as to the survivors OF
the Civil War. Nearly that many
troops were massed at Chattanooga
in the summer of 1898 when the
government was marshaling its
forces for the war with spain. The
exceedingly low rates to the ma
tional encampment Of the Grand
Army Of the Republic in Septem-
Der will doubtless encourage sever
al thousand Spanish-American war
veterans to revisit scenes on the
Chattanooga battlefields where
much life and display were seen in
1898.
Chicamauga Park was scene of
great military activity in 1898
when troops were massed there al
most the entire summer. Thous-
ands Of people from all parts OF
the country were attracted here by
the military movements, and many
times the crowds went as high as
$4,000 independent of. the mill
tary forces. That rendezvous OF
government troops marked the be-
ginning Of a. new Chicamauga
movement, which eventuated in the
present healthy and magnificent
Chicamauga park and brigade
army post on the famous battle
field. Several million dollars have
been spent in improvements to the
park since then. Deep wells have
been bored, which furnish an am
pie supply Of pure water; more
than a hundred miles Of macadam
roads have been constructed thru
out the park; hundreds Of monu-
ments, markers and historical tab
let's have been erected; entirely
adequate trolley car service has
been installed between Chatta-
nooga and Chickamauga; one of
the finest boulevards in the cOun-
try has been built between the
city and the park, and many other
improvements, too numerous to
mention, have been added.
These large improvements be-
long to the nation, and all Ameri-
cans have an interest in them.
! Spanish-American war veterans
will be surprised at the changes
that have been made since they
were camped at Chicamauga and
there is evidence that great many
of them will take advantage Of the
G. A. R. encampment occasion to
revisit the park and renew old ac-
quaintances.

BAD BREATH.
It's Your Duty to Get at the Cause
and Remove II. A Word to
the Wise, You Know.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the
substitute for calomel, oil the bowels
and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath
find quick relief through DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets. The pleasant sugar.
coated tablets are taken for bad
breath by all who know them.
Olive Tablets act gently but firmly
on the bowels and liver, stimulating
them to natural action, clearing the
blood and gently purifying the entire
system of impurities.
They do all that dangerous calomel
does without any of the bad after eff.
fects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening
gripping cathartics are derived from
Olive Tablets without gripping, pain
or disagreeable effects OF any kind.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac.
tice among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint with the
attendant bad breath.
Olive Tablets are a purely vege
table compound mixed with olive oil
