A CHALLENGE To
! GOVERNOR HOOPER
kernor Hooper, in his audi
speech Monday night, re-
his false and slanderous


Ibis false and slanderous
kfge that the democratic ex-
Peeutive committee is securing
campaign funds from beer and
whiskey manufacturers and deal
ers and from special interests.
He stated that our appeal for
popular subscriptions is made for
the purpose of deceiving the peo-
pie into believing that we need
money and that we are not get
ting our campaign funds from
improper sources. The voters
are vitality interested in this
question of campaign collections
and expenditures. We are will
ing to take the public into our
confidence. Are you, Governor
Hooper? We challenge you and
your campaign managers to
make a full and complete de-
tailed statement of receipts and
disbursements up to date and
verify it by the affidavits of those
who have paid it out and our
committee will do likewise.
Let the public know, governor,
the value of state Offices in
campaign where skilled and ac-
complished fat fryers" are on
the job. How much campaign
revenue has your agricultural de-
partment yielded with its host of
officials and appointees? How
much have you had from your
oAfcefs4st1. aeiintees in your
educational department from
the officers and attaches of the
educational institutions under
state control? How much from
your penitentiary officials, guards
and employees? How much from
those who sell supplies to the
prisons and have business rela-
tons with it? How much from
your public health department
and registers of vital statistics in
every county in the state? How
much from your coal oil inspec-
tors? How much from your
"pussy-footed" game wardens?
How much from your fire mar
shals and your insurance depart
ment?
Democrats, taxpayers and citi-
zens everywhere want to know
what it is worth to have political
friends in the state offices and de-
partments Taxpayers want to
know whether the salaries now
being paid were raised 50 as to
enable the holders to be able to
contribute to your campaign
fund.
BY making a statement you
may be able to clear yourself
from suspicion of getting cam
paign funds from book contrac-
tors, backtax attorneys, favor
seeking corporations and lawyers
who have been employed by you
to help the salaried state ; attor-
ney-geneTal look after tie bust
ness of his Office. We are ready
nd anxious for a showdown.
re you, Governor Hooper?

FRAZIER SPEAKS To
CROWDED HOUSE

Ex-senator James B. Frazier
made an eloquent appeal to the
voters of Henry county last Sat-
urdav at the Dixie Theatre, in
behalf of Tom Rye and the
Democratic ticket. The Dixie
was crowded to capacity and
hundreds were turned away, be-
ing unable to get within the
sound of t h e distinguished
speakers voice.
Never has a more Democratic
speech been carried to the listen
ing ears of a Henry county audi
ence. The glowing tribute paid
the old Confederate Soldier
brought tears to the eyes of
many and caused a thinking pub
lie to realize that the future
comfort and happiness of those
old heroes lies alone in the sue
cess of the Democratic Party in
November.
Senator Frazier grew eloquent
in his reference to our Tom Rye,

Andrew Mack. in The Ragged Earl"

the characters he represents. His ad-
vent into the motion picture field adds
TO this modern entertaining wonder
personality which viii give force, dig
nifty and interest to the plays in which

cess on the stage was probably in
The Ragged Earl" a comedy drama
OF Irish life in which Mr.. Mack's pre-
sensation of the character of Gerald
Fitzgerald the free handed. reckless.
generous Earl of Kildare was greatly
enhanced by the native touch and
brogue he introduced into the song he
himself sang. A great many OF mis-
friends thought that the motion pic
ture production would hurt the :epu-
tation he has made as it was not
thought possible to omit the music
and give the same effect. These pessi-
mistic critics were put to rout ct the
first private showing of the finished
picture. The very fact that the music
was not at his command seemed to
spur Mr.. Mack on 10 a display Of pan
tomine which in its suggestion of wit
and humor has never been surpassed.
His very walk. his facial expression,
his gestures all convey almost more
to the spectator than the lyrics them
selves. There is probably no one to-
day who could in any way approach
Mr.. Mack in play of this nature. 1t

founded on Feb. %. 1909. and at the
start It had in all 256 members.
The memberships in the club are di
vided into three cIasses-actTve mem
bers. student members and associate
| members. There were As active mem
Ders at the beginning. and they paid an
annual fee OF 81 each. The student
members. who numbered II. paid a
| like amount. while the 1873 members
/ of the associate class paid dues OF 81
/ a year The active membership is
| limited TO so and at present the list is
/ full. with several names on the wait
! ing list Both the student and the
| associate memberships also show
marked growth.
Applicants for active membership
are examined by the executive board
and admitted IL their proficiency is
such as to fit them to appear on the
programs. Entertainments are given
every third week during the season,
and while. most OF them are afternoon
functions there are some evening pro-
grams and always two church pro-
grams in the year, the last named Civ
ing the organist members an oppor-
tunity to appear.
The student members also give one
program a year, and the club fur
nfshes occasional programs for the
Settlement house. A double quartet
OF women's voices has been organized
among the club members and appears
frequently on the club programs and
also on programs given in the nearby
towns.
The clubs first president was Mrs.
F W. Reimers, who continues TO fill
that Office Much of the success of
the work is said to be due to her
enthusiasm and actifity. The club IL
one of the most prosperous in the
state.
In the five years of its existence the
club has given 30 programs through
its active and student members. Such
artists as George Hamlin, Ludwig
Becker, Bruno Steindel and Marion
Greene have been brought for recitals.

man. Nine Aida and others have been
heard by large audiences. For one
concert it was found necessary to put
chairs in the wings of the theater TO
Accommodate all of the people.
The club is affiliated with the Ma
tional Federation of Musical Clubs and
exchanges year books and programs
with the many clubs belonging to the
federation. The organization has as
sisted the artist, given new impetus
to study among the members. devel-
oped loyalty among musicians and
created musical appreciation.
Continued growth and larger SER
vice are aimed at. and that these ideals
are being realized may be seen in the
undiminished interest on the part of
citizens in the club and its work.
