NATURALLY, you serious minded
~ people find your biggest objec-
ton to Desperate Desmond, the
villain OF the comic supplement in
the fact that he seems impossible,
and that Rosamond, the maiden he
pursues, seems impossible, and that
Claude Eclair, also the quarry of the
villain, is a fantastic impossibility.
And there, I will tell you, is your err
ror. Because all these characters
were incarnated in a serio-comic
drama that occurred in Atlanta the
other day.
1t concerns an attractive young
woman whom we all know--a widow,
l might say, to speak very closely to
the facts. And, because she is at
tractive, she has her admirers, among
them a rather substantial, very jeal-
Gus business man, who is old enough
to know better
The other afternoon the fascinating
widow drove far out a country road
in an automobile with one of her ad-
mirers-not the substantial person.
Far, far out they went, and it was
late afternoon when they turned back
toward town. She noticed an auto
mobile not far behind, and turned to
recognize the car of the substantial
sutton of hers. Close behind it came,
with it's headlights shining bright; so

got out. Then the pursuer dashed off
into the darkness.
Just like Desperate Desmond, the

me all about it. "And felt like Rosa

DR.. WILSON OPENS
REVIVAL SERVICES
Meetings at Grace Street Baptist
Church Will Be Held Twice
Daily for Two Weeks.

Revival services, which will con-
tinue for two weeks, were opened last
night In Grace Street Baptist Church
by REV. Lloyd T. Wilson. D. D., the
pastor. Rev. Caleb r. Ridley, D. D., OF
Atlanta, the we'll known Southern
evangelist who will lead the meetings,
was prevented from attending tho
opening service by reason of engage
ments elsewhere. However. he will ar
rive in time TO preach tonight at 8
o'clock.
Successful with revival meeting an
over the South. DR.. Ridley has re-
Gently added hundreds OF converts to
churches in which he has spoken IN
the past few months. He Is said to
have a magnetic personality and to
be striking In his preaching, but never
undignifled. He was pupil under DR..
l. @. Broughton. who Is now filling
one OF the largest pulpits in London.
and Is said to be a worthy successor
to the noted evangelist.
Last night DR.. Wilson spoke on the
episode Of the women at the we'll. show :
ing how the revival in an ancient city
followed the bringing OF one sinner to
Christ He earnestly asked each mem
Der OF the church to try to follow that
woman's example. and carry the dis
coveries OF faith to others.
The revival Will continue for two
weeks with two services daily. ut 4
o'clock each afternoon and o'clock
each night. DR.. Ridley will be aideo
by special chorus choir Of forty
voices led by the quartet choir of the
church.

TO HEAR HOMER
ON GAS MATTER
Not Likely, However, That Com
mittec Will Favor Lease
of Property.

Illness prevented President Francis
T. Honor. OF the Southern Gas and
Electric Corporation, from being pres
cnt at the last meeting Of the Commit
tee on Public Buildings. Properties
and Utilities. but tho committee has
assurances that he will be present to
set forth his claims for leasing the
City Gas Works at the meeting to be
held at o'clock tomorrow night.
In the original petition, setting forth
the reasons why tho City Gas Works
should be leased to his company, Mr..
Homer said that no could sell tho pro-
duct more cheaply. and that q private
~ owned corporation could give more
satisfaction than a municipal institu-
tion. AS against this Ia the fact that
the City Gas Department annually re-
turns part of Its appropriation to tho
city. and that It's gross receipts last
year amounted to moro than 100000
a recent poll of the members of the
City Council disclosed that that body
was almost unanimously opposed to the
lease Of the Gas Works. and, as a
member of the City Council said last
night. 1t is hardly probable that any
of them have undergone a change Of
opinion.
Several months ago the Committee
on Public Buildings. Properties and
Utilities recommended that the gas
rate be reduced to SO cents, but the
Finance Committee decided that II
would be better to follow up tho i'm
provcments suggested by Arthur Glas
gov, the great London expert on gas
production, before reducing tho price.
Mr.. Glasgow was complim entary in HIS
general report on the local Gas Works.
but suggested improvements In tho
manner of distribution. and in the
holders and other mechanical devices
OF the plant and In private households.
However. full hearing will be
granted to Mr.. Homer II he appears
