Alma, have sometimes thought he

You see, Alma, l was hOTTid to

but any love he had for me is cooled
Alma and l had been breakfasting

almost every day at about II. Alma,
being on a morning paper, kept
about the same hours that did. AS
it was a matinee day l hurried off and
left Alma in my room writing.

when I arrived at the theater I
saw Earnest LawtOn storming
around and knew 1 was in for a bad
afternoon. Everything went all right,
however, until the big scene. Do you
know, Margie, l always felt Fate had
it in for that big scene? If anything
happened it was sure to happen then.
Earnest had worked himself up
to the climax when I saw he was go
ing to sneeze. It was terribly funny,
for he knew that if he did the whole
climax would be ruined. He could
not hold his breath, as he was spout
ing all kinds of love for me. He
choked and almost clawed the air
and then, my dear Margie, I never
heard such a sneeze in all my life.

were awfuIly nice to Alma and me
at this time, and of course when
anything was printed in either of the
papers that Alma or Tom was on,
Earnest LawtOn almost fTOthed at
the mouth.
Tom, who had quite a vogue in
Philadelphia at the time, took paTtic-
ular pleasure in saying something
about me almost every day, for l
had told him what quite expected
and he said if such a thing was per-
petrated he would tell the whole
story.
Alma was very happy, for I could
see she was much interested in Tom
Perry. There is one thing no one
can say of him, she said to me one
day, and that is he writes what he
does not believe
Well you can say he will stretch
a point for a friend, I answered smiI-
ing Look what he does for me-
You deserve it. she stOUtly in
sisted. I think he would have done
all this had he never met you
Now, Alma, have a little COM

you don't ever remember Tom Perry
having something in his column ev-
cry day for weeks about the same
actress, do you?'
No. answered Alma grduging-
ly, but you see yours is a unique
case. YOI are vOUDg and Drpttv and
you know that you play that part to
perfection
I am glad you think so. Some
times think I can never make a sue
cessful actress, but when some one
like you encourages me I take heart
again. Isn't it queer Jeff has not
said one word about my acting or my
part since he has been here

AMERICAN GIRLS
CLASSED is ENEMIES
EXPATRIATES MAY SEE BROTH
ERS PTTTED AGAINST THEIR
TITLED MATES SOON.

The entrance Of the United States
into the war in Europe has changed
the status Of dozens Of American
girls who welded titled Germans and
Austrians. In addition to FORGETTING
their citizenship in the United States
+ these women now are classed as
alien enemies of their native land,
and never can hope to return to the
standing they had in America before
the war. What is more to the point
they soon may see their brothers
and other relatives pitted against
their husbands in the trenches in
France or on other lines of the great
battlefields of Europe.
Two of the most recent alliances
written into the social history of
Washington are those of Miss Cath
crime Birney to Prince Alfred zu
Observation-Disclosures and Miss
Catherine Britton to Baron Wilhelm
Won Schoen. Both husbands are alien
enemies and their wives are without
standing in the German and Austrian
courts because their lineage cannot
be traced to royal stock in the coun-
tries of their election.
Many Other Expatriates.
Countess Szechenyi, formerly Miss
Gladys Vanderbilt, has a husband
now on the staff Of Gen. Dankl in the
Galician region, where the Russians
once planned to make the decisive
drive of the war. Her brother. Cor
nelius Vanderbilt, is with the Tween
ty-second United States engineers
preparing to do his bit against the
country of his sisters adoption. 9th
err brides Of titled heads of Europe
are finding themselves in the same
trying position.
Miss Agnes Carroll, of one of the
oldest Virginia families, is married.
to Count Anton Huessenstamm. The
daughter of the late John A. Stewart
is the wife of Count Julius Appronyi.
captain Of the hussars in the Aus
trian army. Another is Nora Iselin,
now Countess Collerdo- Mansfield.
She is the daughter of C. Oliver Ise-
lin. Her husband had the secretarial
post at the Austrian embassy in
Rome.
Many of the young women became
brides of attaches of the Austrian
and German embassies in Washing
ton, while others were attracted by
the titles and the alleged wealth of
the Europeans. Usually, however, it
was the attraction of the wealth of
the American heiresses that captured
the Europeans.

ANOTHER VIEW OF THE
WOOLLEY MEETING IN DAWSON
Speaker Was Tagged, and Audience
Tired and Almost Exhausted.

Editor of The Dawson News: You
are generally so fair in all your deal
ings | was quite surprised that you
went so wide Of the mark in the
tumble you made of the write-up of
the WoOlley temperance speech.
TO throw stones at such a man as
John G. Woolley, who has for more
than a decade stood calmly in the
fiery furnace of persecution while
many Of the rest of us were idly
slipping ice cream sodas, is so foreign
to what was intended | cannot let
it pass. l still hold that the meet
ing was entirely without pep and
inspiration because the speaker was
tagged out from hard campaigning
and the audience almost nodding
from sheer exhaustion after two
weeks of W. C. T. U. convention and
Baptist association.
The temperance lecturer was more
fortunate, however, in securing an
audience than the widely advertised
school Of agriculture put on here the
same week and boosted by your pa
per, the mayor and council and 9TH
ers interested.
Those experts were greeted by an
audience of two one evening and
three the next Are we to conclude
from this that nobody is interested
in agriculture and that the question
is settled in Terrell county? To say
this would be just about as logical
as to state that the matter of pro-
hibition is forever settled in Georgia
i
adverse conditions failed to pack the
house.
IA, No question is ever settled until
it is settled right, and you can de-
pend on it there will be enough true
blue prohibitionists to agitate the
cause until every saloon shall be
driven from this nation.
Away back yonder when the water
wagon seemed hopelessly stuck in the
mire it was the gifted young Wool
ley, of eloquent voice and pen, who
tugged away amid the iibes and
slurs Of the liquor traffic securely
entrenched until he helped to lift it
out Of the mud onto a smooth high
way of popular favor where it is now
running like creased lightning. My
hat is off to John G. Woolley and the
Dawson man who stood by him in his
recent visit here Both have stood
the acid test of defeat in many
fierce battle with the liquor power
and its train Of evils, and now that
the country is enjoying the sweets
Of victory men of this type can af-
ford to smile good naturally when
those who have failed in their eff
forts to block the water wagon COM
placently climb aboard, glad to pay
a big price for a fropt seat in the
gay procession with bands playing
and flags flying, marching triumph
antly towards national prohibition.
II there is one person more than
another who has my unqualified adj
miration it is the one who dares to
champion an unpopular cause that he
knows is right. In my humble opin-
ion John G. Woolley and the man
who introduced him to Dawson au-
dlence both belong to that class.
Such characters keep alive our faith
in God and humanity and carry for
ward every good cause. REPORTER,

FIFTY-FIRST ANNUAL SESSION
WILL CONVENE IN ALBANY
ON TUESDAY, NOV. 14TH.
SOME EARLY HISTORY OF
METHODISM IN This SECTION
Membership Has Grown From TO-
$50 in 1868 to 95,467 Year Ago.
Some Other Interesting Figures
and Facts About Church.


and Facts About Church.
Rev. W. A. Brooks, of Hazlehurst,
has contributed an interesting arti-
Gle to the Savannah News regard
ing the approaching session of the
South Georgia conference of the
Methodist church, from which the
following is taken:
The fifty-frst session of the South
Georgia conference to be held in Al
bany November 14-19 will mark the
fourth annual gathering of the hosts
of Methodism in "the Artesian City"
located at the head of navigation on
the Flint River.
The first session was that Of the
Florida conference in 1849. Bishop
William Capers, who had been elect
ed to the espiscopacy, at Petersburg,
Virginia, in May, 1916, at the first
session of the general conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church.
South, presided.
At that time ''the Florida confer
ence extended across Southern Geor-
gia from Fort Gaines to Mobley Bluff
on the Ocmulgee river, and down the
Oconee to the Altamaha, embracing
all Of Middle East and South Flori-
da."
The conference body which assem-
bled in Albany in 1849 consisted of
fewer than thirty preachers and no
laymen, for in those days laity rights
and Nashville addresses" were un-
known.
the second session of an annual
conference to be held in Albany was
that of the South Georgia confer
ence in 1868, Bishop George F.
Pierce, presiding. Possibly the only
surviving members Of the South
Georgia conference, today, who at
tended that session of the conference
are Revs. J. o. A. Cook, of Thomas
vile; E. H. McGehee, of Lumpkin,
and w. w. Stewart, of Quitman.
The host of the conference in 1863
was Rev. Henry D. Moore, who was
transferred to the Alabama confer
ence in 1872. Just here a compare
tive statement of the reports made
to the conference in Albany in 1868
and made to the South Georgia con-
ference, last year, might be of spe-
cial interest.
In 1853 there were 2O,860 mem
bers, POI local preachers, and 256
Sunday schools with 1O,363 scholars.
The sum of Sal. 463.04 was paid to
the pastors and their assistants; ST.
