agent, will have a room on the lower
floor, where she will receive visitors
who come to the college for the pur-
pose of inquirlng into the methods
used in her department. In this con-
nection will be a rest room for MOTH
ers who come to visit their sons or
daughters, and a comfortable couch
will be installed, with easy chars
for the guests. A locker will be pro-
vided, SO that if the guests wish to
bring their travelling equipment 1t
may be securely locked within for
safe-keeping. A commissary and
"bank" are to be installed, where the
boys may obtain those essentials of
their toilet which girls do not often
forget, and money may be deposited
and checked upon the same as In
regular bank. The bank is feature
greatly to be praised, because OF the
fact that the students do not have
time to come into the city for the
exchange of money needed IN an
emergency.
The library is being worked upon
but this will not be completed this
year. 1t is to be very handsome
room, with we'll placed lights from
the ceiling, and the sides lined WITH
handsome cases to holds the books
Already a number of volumes have
been contributed, and others will fol
/ low as soon as the need OF the col
lege is made known.
The dormitories are undergoing re
pairs, which as soon as completed
will put the institution IN a fai
way to compete with the larger col
leges. These rooms are being reno
waited, new sanitation being added
and the walls are being done over
The bedding is very comfortable
much more SO than is usually found II
schools, and the home life of tn
school is greatly augmented by thu
fact. Miss Kerr will have charge O.
the dormitory for the girls, Whll'
Prof. J. E. Owens will preside ovel
that for boys.
Americas should be very proud o.
this great institution located IN me-
midst. The grounds are beautiful
and are to be made more so. Ih'
principal is ever on the alert to bet
ter the conditions just as rapidly al
NAV be done with the means at hand
and little encouragement and praise
from the citizens will work wonders
both with the faculty and the studen'
body.

smith PREPARES
TO MEET WATSON
Names Two Representa-
tives to Arrange Joint
Debate

ATLANTA, Aug. 3.-Naming Fe-
lix Jackson, of Gainesville, and Will
liam Schley Howard as his represent
atives to arrange details, U. S. Sen
ator Hoke Smith has formally agreed
to meet Thomas E. Watson in joint
debate to discuss the issues of the
senatorial campaign. Senator Smith
said ne rad received no challenge
from Watson, but had read the pub
LEGATION in the newspapers.
Senator Smith said some of Mr..
Watson's reported speeches go dis
credit the work of the Democratic
party and are sowing such seeds of
distrust and hate in the state they
should be answered by some Demo
crat."
An interesting development of the
campaign is the attitude of the Al.
bany Herald, one of the staunchest
Democratic dailies in Georgia, anC
one of the most influential forces IL
the state. In the presidential pri
mary, the Herald supported Attorney
General Palmer, but as is character
listic of the editor, it was scrupulous
ly fair to Senator Smith. The pSpe1
strongly endorses Senator Smith fol
reelection.

Billie Burke
In "Frolic"

Acting for the screen brings up
strange condolences. In her latest
Paramount picture, THE Educa-
tion of Elizabeth" Billie Burke ap-
pears in a scene from the Midnight
Frolic," which was transplanted in
tact from the roof of the New Am
sterdam Theater to the new Long
Island studio of the Famous Players.
This was the first time, and prob
ably the last, that Miss Burke ever
appeared in one of her husbands
revues. Florenz Ziegfeld broke one
OF his ironclad rules in permitting
six of his most famous beauties TO
appear in a picture in the very same
costumes they wear in his Midnight
Frolic."
Edward Dillon. director of the
picture, conferred with Mr.. ZieGfeld
before staging the scene from the
'Frolic," and all the resources of
both Mr.. Ziegfeld and the Famous
Players studio were utilized In
making the scene one OF the most
colorful that has ever been shown
in Paramount pictures for some
time. In addition to the six girls
with their lavish costumes. A. S.
Danby's negro orchestra that makes
the jazzy music for the dancers on
the New Amsterdam roof every
night. played for the scene: Jack
Hanley did some of, his most fasci-
mating juggling, and Melissa Ten
Eyck and Max weily. Roman dane
ers, did a turn. The ''Frolic" girls
In the scene were Babe Marlowe,
Alaine Allison. Trix Brunette, Alta
King, Pearl Jermonde and Beatrice
Miller.
Miss Burke, whose legitimate
stage career has been illustrious,
never before has appeared as a cho-
rus girl and her experience as a lady
of the chorus in The Education of
Elizabeth" has been regarded by her
as a lark. She has taken great de-
light In the Interpretation Of the
character and the climax was reach
ed when, she was permitted to be a
member of the Midnight Frolic.
