Work.
sermon that had a great deal to
do with the policy of a newspaper and
the fact that a successful Atlanta bus
Inesa man was formerly a messenger
boy In New York gave Impetus Sunday
to a movement started In Atlanta to
establish a Florence Crittenton mis
sion here.
As a result of this combination this
former messenger boy agreed Sunday
morning to stand the heaviest part of
the burden of educating a young wom
an In Washington y for the purpose
of earning on the Crittenton mission
work throughout the countn’.
Sunday morning Rev. Dr. Walker
Lewis, Bouthem held secretary of the
Florence Crittenton Mission, made an
address at the First Methodist church
and npo of those who heard his appeal
for co-operation In this mission work
and also assistance, was the former
New York messenger boy—F. L. Seely,
president of The Georgian.
Dr. Lewis made an eloquent appeal
for assistance In this work and at the
conclusion Mr. Seely volunteered
stand the burden of educating the
young woman for the work, and In
doing so he gave hla reasons.
He recited the fact that twenty-two
years ago he was a messenger boy In
New York and that among the other
work he had to do was the carrying
of bundles. A large pan of this bundle
carrying work was done for Charles
Cilttenton. And to get these bundles
this messenger boy had to wait at
the stole of the big merchant anil
many times came In contact with him.
The kindness with which he treated
even a young messenger boy was re
membered In the meeting yesterday and
so was a sermon this same messen
ger boy heard preached some months
before The Georgian was established.
These facts were told by Mr. Seely
In. bln short talk about his interest
In the work anil he said that alter
listening to Mr. Crlttenton’s sermon at
the North Avenue Presbyterian church
he determined then and there
when he established
whisky, nor fake, nor objectionable ad
vertisements should be carried.
He told, tm% of his observation of
the good work done by Mr. Crittenton
and urged that more Interest In the
movement In Atlanta be manifested.
The result of Mr. Seely's talk and
offer to stand the expense of educating
a young woman for the work helped thi
movement considerably and plans are
now being brought to a successful
business, amounting to about 656,000
a year, In the establishment and main
tenance of Florence Crittenton Mis
sions throughout the country.
