GIRL GOT COLD FEET WHEN SHE
SAW HERSELF
Tlie following will lie rend with
Interest by Clicraw people, Miss Holcornbe
being well known here, having
visted In the elty several tluies:
Atlanta. Aug. 4.?Something was ho*
besides the weather at a prominent
picture, theatre on I'eaclitree jesterday.
It all came about through the
presentation of an Atlanta- made so
ciety melodrama in which a striking
beautiful Atlanta girl, Miss Alamenda
Iloleomhe, appeared, through one of
the important scenes, in a tijjht fitting
man's bathing suit.
Miss Holcome, the winner of u recent
hcauty contest, is one of the city's
most estimable young ladies, and appeared
in the picture in the regular
course of her dramatic work as a motion
picture artist which she is going
to adopt as a profession?but, when
the young lady, aecnmpaniod liy her
lllflHlOi* cilU' tlio nw.fuo.t ...?
Lhe screen, with thousands of Atlanta
people looking at it?saw herself as a
* barefooted and hare-legged mermaid,
she got what is technically known as
a case of cold feet.
Do not. net the idea .that there was
wjius;thin? improper about the picture
for there was not. The board of censors
passed it. lint it was, perhaps,
a little daring.
And after solving it Miss llolcomhe
had an interview witli 'the manager of
the theatre. First she requested and
then she tearfully pleaded that the

scones eliminated. That failing, slio
h ?ld of a lawyer who was unable
to make any more impression on tin'
manager than she was, and then there
Vas some talk of having her hhrother,
a husky young gentleman of atliletie
builr, to use his influem-e or his lists.
ltut the manager stocvl his ground,
insisting the he would do anything
to oblige a lady, hut declaring that
<he picture was absolutely ah ri-.nt
ami pro|K'i* and that instead of wanting
it cut out. the young lady ought to
lie proud of the part she played in it. So
the picture continued to lie shown.
