About dozen of these colonies
are being started within twenty miles

Doctor Instructs Diva

Galli-Curci who comes to Atlanta
in grand opera this year, has told how

appearance of Violetta on that &C.
casion, in fact the death of the sup
posed victim of tuberculosis was
greeted with cat calls and laughter.
First of all the prima donna was too
fat, as indeed all of them were for

grandiloquent announcement OF her
immediate death was so ludicrous as
to really seem burlesque.
Galli-Curci has more slender
physique and can more truly look the

much coughing was necessary to IN

has told her that practically no
coughing takes place in the last hours

effect. With this and other advice
Galli-Curci will play her part in a
manner as pleasing from dramatic
standpoint as she never fails to 90

azine writer to the third class cabin
which has become a favored part OF
liners for use of students and even
professors of colleges on summer
trips to and from Europe. 1t has be
come the high-brow end of the boat
since their innovation. Since the OBJ
iect of trip to Europe is for edu-
cational ends only by this class Of
people. the difference in accommoda-
tions is lightly considered and since
the company is invariably large and
congenial students become more en-
thusiastic about tourist cabin"

to be enough professors in third
cabin to start a half dozen colleges,
while Phi Beta keys were as COM
mon hairpins. On one program
there were Representatives of ten of

use of bicycles is still in favor, groups

Plucky Women

England seems to boast the larger
number of women who understake adj
ventures of pluck and daring, which
may be due to their early training
for the hunt which if enjoyed by
them is certain indication of fear
lessness. Recently one Englishwom-
an, wife of the minister of air, ac-
companied him on the inauguration
trip of a new airline between London
and India. Though forced landings
could have been most hazardous 1t
was their good luck that none was
made and it took some endurance to
stand even the flying which with Off
cial stops and functions lasted about
two months. Another woman, mo-
torist, has started on trip around
the world. The actual distance for
motoring will be about $4,000 miles
as she crosses each continent on the
way. This woman, already well
known in England as racer will do
her own driving but will be accom-
panied by nurse, a mechanic, and
an official observer from the Royal
Automobile Club. Luggage for each
traveller is limited to 20 younds. The
car has a kitchen outfit which the
driver enjoys using as diversion.
There is sliding seat arrangement
for the bed of the women and con-
trivance that makes the running
boards into beds for the men. Ex-
cept for the monotony which the
change of scenery will tend to break,
it looks like glorious adventure. =
