THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1913. ^OUAITRY rJOME TOPuS connctep BrjTus.-u:H.irtLToy<. THE EVENING STORY ' AT THE CAFETERIA Copyright, 1913. By W. Werner X WHAT TAINTS MONEY? The dispute now growing more and more acrimonious between the authori ties of Vanderbilt university and the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, regarding the acceptance of a large donation of money to erect and endow a medical department makes the question of tainted money, so-called, very pertinent. Mr. Carnegie offers '$100,000 for such purpose, but he insists that the bene fits to accrue from this donation shall not be sectarian, but undenominational, where everybody can be helped. This is the gravamen of the disturb ance. The trustees, those in control, declare they will accept the gift. The bishops declare they will refuse it. So, there you are, and the “fat is in the fire!!” The North Georgia, the South Georgia and the Mississippi conferences haye declared against the acceptance There 1ms been much talk and some publications concerning the agnosticism of Mr. Carnegie, and occasionally we hear about “tainted money." When I read of the herculean strug gle Atlanta is now making to raise a sufficient sum to endow' a Presbyterian university, to which all classes of so ciety—Jew and Gentile, are generously contributing cash money, it seems some what abnormal to make a kick against $100,000 in a solid lump, with only one little string tied to the gift. 1 recollect also that the Methodists ' had a famous contest over accepting donation from congress, which had a string tied to it, and that string was the avoidance of lobbyists in collecting the cliam. If there was any lobby fee to be paid, the donation was Vnill and void. The Georgia conferences and the Mis sissippi conference, along with others, cried out, “Don’t accept," when consid erably more than one-third was paid to the lobbyists. It w'as a case celebre and a dubious scheme. But the bishops declared for the ac ceptance of this “tainted money" and the money was largely applied to in creasing the salaries of the “boss men” who paid out the money for lobbying. What is tainted money? WOULD WE ACCEPT PEACE IP WE COULD GET IT? There is a proposition before congress to suspend the building of warships and be quiet as to war for a twelve- month, which is an echo of a similar proposition advanced in England by Hon. Winston Churchill, a prominent leader in English legislation. It requires fifteen millions of dollars I Students of Princeton Planning to Organize Club for Saving Life PRINCETON, N. .i., Dec. 15—What is / to be known as the “Princeton Univer sity Swimming and Life-Saving club," 4 is to be organized after the close of the intercollegiate swimming season under the direction of the department of phys ical education. Frank Sullivan, swim ming coach, is to be the instructor. The 5 object is to equip the undergraduates with the fundamentals and fine points in* swimming and life-saving. The membership test will be more severe than that used by the Royal Life Saving society of England, and the Volunteer Life Saving corps of America Town Swept by Fire LE PAS. Man., Dec. 16.—Le Pas. the new Hudson bay railway terminal town on the Saskatchewan river, was fire- swept this morning. An entire block of ’buildings and several others in ad joining blocks were burned. The loss was estimated at $175,000. Many guests at two hotels that were burned fled in night attire. \\>V \\j HAVE YOUR MEALS ON TIME ! Without- looking,* Miss Miller, the cashier of the Elite cafeteria, knew what the figures would be on the yellow pa per strip that the slim, tired girl in rather shabby blue serge laid on the desk. Twelve cents, not a cent more, to build a first class battleship and at least ten millions more to equip it for service, according to estimates that are published in navy' statistics. It costs more than a thousand dollas each to fire one ball from a single gun. a single time, when a warship is in action. The life of a battleship is limited. Motn does not bother, but rust corrupts m a terrible way. In a few years, the ship is docked and repaired from stem to stern at terrific cost, or it goes to the junk heap, if r it does not founder ana go to the bottom of the sea. v We are gravely told that of our bil- lion-dollar apprqpriation to be made by congress in a few days to support the government 60 per cent and upward is devoted to soldiers, seamen, battleships, forts and pensions. It takes this enor mous amount of money, more than six hundred millions annually, to cover the military part of our government, li there are two battleships built before next July’, there will be an Increase oi an additional thirty millions of dollars. There can be no stop to pensions, ana the pension bill, instead or ctecreasTng .by death of veterans, grows bigger every year, a clear case of graft, and chicanery. England has a similar bur den. These facts are startling. It looxs like cur statesmen learn nothing by ex perience, but continue to fling away the tax money of the people. The end may be slow in coming, but it is /coming sooner or later. Nothing can stand against this flood of waste, and it seems that we won’t accept peace, if it is oir- fered to us.

Dearborn St., CHICAGO. “You didn't give me enough money,” she said. not a cent less. Coffee, 5 cents; meat or soup or beans, 5 cents; bread, 1 penny; butter another. It had been that amount every day during the six months that she had been coming. Miss Miller got her dinners thrown in with her $9. A grimace contorted her fat, good natured face at the thought of be ing restricted to 12 cents. “And she looks hungry," she confided to Jane, the girl who carried away the dishes. “Daresay," yawned Jane. She was not much interested in one shabby patron out of the hundreds that came be tween 11 and 2. “What’s she always trking coffee for, then? That ain’t fill ing," contemptuously. “She could get 5 cents’ worth of something else—pie or cake." Miss Miller had thought of that, too, but she knew that coffee has a 1,charm above mere food and a “filling" power that power that pie or vegetables does not posses. “Oh, well," she sighed, com- niiseratingly, and then as usual, for got her till the next day. The Elite cafeteria was in the exact center of the loop and a great many slim, tired faced girls lunched there. Among so many objects pity must necessarily be mo mentary. And there were some thin, tired faced men, too. One especially tiiatiMiss Miller had noticed. His check was always numbered around 12 cents, but it was not so invariable. It occa sionally ran as high as 14 cents, and dropped as low as 9 cents. On that oc casion Miss Miller had to inform him that the lowest sum accepted in the Elite cafeteria was 10 cents. And she knew by the regret that flitted, gossa mer-like,, over his thin, worried face, that he wished that he had taken an other slice of whole wheat bread and so not wasted that extra penny. “He looks hungry," she confided to Jane. “My! It’s Sort of uncomfortable working at this place. If I wasn’t a person of hearty appetite I’d feel dumpy p 11 the time watching folks." And then Miss Miller, who didn’t have to bother with checks, since her m^als were in cluded, w^nt after another helping of roast pork and sage dressing. “You never can tell," cynically re torted Jane as she heaped saucers atop plates and jcups atop saucers. “That old dried-up guy that never takes anything but stewed prunes and bean soup—you’ve noticed him at the table by end window? They say he owns the middle plank of the board of trade. “Yes, I’ve noticed him,” said Miss Miller. “He nearly had a convulsive fit one day because there was a mis take and ha got a 12-cent check in stead of a 10-ceAter. But he ain’t got the wornout, hungry look that these two have. He’s just got a stingy, hungry look.” It was the next day after that con versation that the girl lay down the usual dime and two oermies and check marked twenty-one. Miss Miller pushed it back wonderingly. Never before had the girl gone over 12 cents. “You didn’t give me enough money,” she said. The girl gasped. “Why— oh! She’s made a mistake. I only got 12 cents’ worth." Miss Miller frowned and caught her full underlip/ between her teeth. She was responsible for the amount which the checks footed up. And if one made it up out of one’^ own pocket, why, one could be doing it every day. Maybe the girl got the wrong check; maybe she didn’t. In several years’ cashiering at food clubs Miss Miller’s faith in human nature bad been punched full of holes. Still this girl-—’’ “I haven't the other money with me," she said in a small voice. “T’ll— I’ll have to leave something as security and—and bring it tomorrow." “Oh, never mind," said Miss Miller good-naturedly, “bring it any time.” She guessed, with a twinge of scorn for her momentary uncharitable hesitation, that she could stand it if the girl didn’t make up the 9 cents. But the girl had a queer pride; It was almost morbid. From the shabby black purse she took a small change purse—a pretty little thing of soft green leather and mother of peart sides. “I’ll leave this,” she said. “It’s worth more than 9 cents." She took a nickel from it—all the change it held. “I have to keep this for car fare to night." , Then she was gone, the impatient line behind moved up ,a step, and Miss Mil ler, feeling meafi and uncomfortable, mechanically made change and wished that she hadn’t hesitated that one mo ment. The line kept on, the 11:30 rush gave way to the 12, the 12:10, the 12:30. Miss Miller watched the clock. She was hun gry. But it wouldn't be after 2 before she could leave the then dwindling line. Some one laid down a 13-cent check and three nickles. Absently she pushed back two cents and extended a tired hand for the next check. “Where’d you get that little pocket- book?" demanded some one hoarsely. Miss Miller was fawning. Her hand fell from her open mouth. She looked in surprise at the eager questioner It was the thin hungry man whom she had discussed with Jane. “Why?” she asked. “I want to Know," /he said fiercely. “It Isn’t yours!" It was more an assertion than a question. “You see,” Miss Miller told Jane aft erward, “he took me by surprise, and I didn’t know as it really was any of his business. And I just thought to myself that maybe the girl didn’t want him to find her. You never earn tell, you know, seeing how many queer things happen in a city. And so at first I wasn't going to tell him anything at all. For a few min utes I pretended that it was mine. You know I was going to let the girl know about him before I let him know about her. But he laughed, mad-like and flipped up one mother of pearl side, and there were two initials scratched. “Tell me," he begged sort of tired like. “My gracious!" breathed Jane. “Ain’t it like 'a novel!” “Wait,” said Miss Miller after she had swallowed a third of a fifth of an apple “Maybe she don’t want yon to find her,” says I. pie. “Wait till I tell you the rest. I simply says shq’s a friend of mine that eats in here. But I didn’t know where she roomed exactly. And he says, “She’s Tny wife, that’s who she is. I been ’ooking for her for six months!’ So I says, ‘May be she don’t want you to find her?’ But, Lordy, I knew that she’d be tickled to death. There was a tired, hungry look on her face that wasn’t brought just by not getting enough to eat. And he said, as meek as Moses, ‘May be she don’t. But—I’d like to ask her.’ \ “And then he thought for a while. And I waited. Pretty soon he said, Would you mind telling her that I’ve saved enough now to furnish a home?’ I nodded—1 didn’t know what to say. And, gracious! I didn’t know how I was gtaing to say anything like that to a girl that I didn’t know. But I’d let him think that I knew her. Say, this rice pudding wasn’t so good,” nibbling tentatively. “She must’ve forgot the cinnamon.” “Oh, go on,” said Jane impatiently. “What you say, and what did be say?" “That was about all. I want—’’ she rose and waddled toward the counter— “some m^re pie. She must’ve borrowed the 9 cents from some one where she worked and came hustling right back with it—and, say, Anne’s got to be more careful about giving out wrong checks— and he was there when she hurried in. They looked at each other, and he got white and so did she. And he said, ‘Nell,’ and she said, ‘Ed,’ and then They walked out. But when he came back to day——she ain’t coming no more—be told me that they ;married on nothing, and she wanted furniture, and somehow they couldn’t save. Seems as though he couldn’t get out of the habit of treat ing the boys when he met ’em. And so they rowed, and then they 'rowed worse, and then she went off and got her old -position back. And that’s all. If you’re coming back this way, Jane, bring me a chocolate copky. And now I guess she’s mighty glad to quit this place. From the way they looked at each other when thdy left I guess they’ll stick this time. I wish—” Fat Miss Miller sighed plaintively. “A girl does get awful tired of eating at a cafeteria." FAMOUS “FRAM” WILL SAIL THROUGH PANAMA CANAL ON WAY TO ARCTIC Social Salvation Is to Be Secured I Only by Personal Salvation BY BISHOP W. A. GABBLER. M R. ROSS FINNEY, in his work on “Personal Religion and tne Social Awakening,” says, “We need the insight to discern that per sonal salyation is a vital requisite to Social Salvation; and that, it the social hopes of the present age ar« to he realized, a revival or personal religion must sweep through our civ ilization.” This is most profoundly true. Most of the current! unrest about the social system, as it now stands, is selfish in its motives and sinful in its methods. The over rich grasp foi more, and then denounce the less for-; tunate for doing the Same thing. Tne men who are not rich denounce thei opulent classes for having wealtn, and then proceed to chase dollars as edgerly as the .men whom they aej- nounce. Botli parties to the contro versy are making too much of hav ing money and the things which mon ey can buy, while they think too lit tle of the higher things or character and happiness which money cannot buy nor the want of money prevent one from possessing. The men who are preaching most loudly for “Social -Salvation” do more to influence the soc^ system than they do to save the masses; they irritate more than they elevate. The final outcome! of. their gospel is revo lution not reform; its end is a con flagration and not a conversion ot» bad conditions into good conditions. They preach like they were mad; and a mad preacher is always a bad preacher The true remedy for the ills of the social system is a revival of that re ligion of which a fundamental prin ciple is that “The life consisted .not in the abundance of the things a man hath.” Such a revival Would soften the hearts of the prosperous with an abounding brotherly kind ness towards the poor; and it would purge away any mahgnant envy of the unfortunate towards their more successful neighbors. If would ar rest the mania for luxury which pos sesses the rich, and which leads them to such selfish and senseless displays of wealth as inevitably inflame hos tility towards them; and, on the oth er hand, it would remove malignant passions from the hearts of those who look with evil and coveious eyes upon such vain displays because such indulgences are beyond their reach. The present condition of the social system is not very unlike that which prevailed in England about the mid dle of the Eighteenth Century. 'A new industrial era dawned when Brindley with his canal joined Man chester with Liverpool in 1767. The success of the enterprise led to the rapid introduction of water carriage throughout Great Britain, which was speedily traversed in every direction by three thousand miles of naviga ble canals. This meant much for a country which before that time had b&en almost roadless, and in which for lack of transportation people in London had famished for bread, while at a distance >or less than a hundred miles from the metropolis farmers hoarded or wasted surplus grain for want of an accessible mar ket. Two years before the opening of Brindley’s Canal Watt had trans formed the steam-engine from a toy to a Titan, and his great invention still further quickened the growth of the industrialism which had sprung up. About the same time came the development of the coal and iron mines of England. Quickly following these things came the spinning-jenny of Hargreaves and the spinning machine of Arkwright. Then Cdmpton invented the spinning mule, and speedily after It appeared the power loom. It was as if all the secret forces of nature were being called forth to enrich Great Britain. But the development of so much power |to produce wealth brought great perils to the social system. Great manufacturing centers sprang into being like magical creations. Men unused to the feverish excite ment and fearful temptations of such a situation were massed together where all the. allurements to vice were multiplied and all the inspira tions to virtue were diminished. Rich men became greedy and their employes became irritable. The wealth of the country was vastly in creased, but the inequalities Uf its distribution grew far more rapidly. The contrast between the arrogant popLence of some and abject indi gence of many caused great unrest among the masses. Conditions be came so inflamed that a revolu tion threatened to break gut in Eng land as fierce as that which raged in France. Mr. Leckey, who is notori ously free from any bias towards re ligion, in his “History of England in the Eighteenth Century” gives the chief place among the forces which averted such a revolution to the Wes leyan revival. That checked the godless extravagances of the rich, and turned the wastefulness of their luxury into a healing, helpful philan thropy. It did also restrain the envy and covetousness of tne laborer, while it purged away tne greed of the capitalist. It fused all classes into a social fellowship from yyhich suspicion and hate were excluded and in which love and brotherliness prevailed. Thus the British nation was solidified and saved. Sydney Smith said sneeringly of the Methodist revivalists "All mines and subterranean places belong to them.” It was well that what he said was true; for otherwise in a little while there would have been left nothing above ground or be low ground to make life in England worth living. We need now a revival religion as much greater and more powerful than the Wesleyan revival as our present industrialism is greater and more inflammatory than the indus trialism of the England of the Eigh teenth Century. Nothing else can save us. Parties and platforms can not bring us the salvation which we need. Unions and counter-unions can not meet the needs of the situ ation. Strikes and lockouts are worse than useless. Frenzied re formers and enraged preachers can not avail to bring us deliverance. “Our hope is in God; from him com- eth our Salvation.” The life of Christ in the individ ual soul must give a Christly char acter to the Social System. Social salvation must come as the fruit of personal salvation. We will save the mass of men by saving individ ual men. We can not save the indi vidual by applying palliative pre scriptions to the mass. If we ean not save all by saving each, then the case is hopeless. It Is high time we had put away Sociological nostrums ana returned to God. We must have fewer “box parties” at the theaters and more family altars in our homes. We need to pray more in secret and pa rade less in public farces and func tions.

The man who stole it was arrested- He is an Italian. “Mona Lisa”—hiore properly known as “La Joconde”—is one of the world’s most famous paintings and is regarded as priceless. Leonardo da Vinci took as his model for the picture Lisa del Giocondo, a woman of Florence. He worked on the picture for four years from 1500 to 1504. It was bought for France by Francis I. The value of the work can only be imagined, since all offers to buy it were refused, among them one reported to have been made by the British govern ment of $5,000,000.
