An 1 eighth committee
(Special to the Banner.)
Atlanta ,Ga„ Dec. 17.—It became
known tonight that a publicity agency
this morning sent out to state papers
generality a statement quoting Gover
nor Harris as saying that while he
“had not contemplated having any
thing to say at this time but since
my Mends have put me in the race
I am going to stick with them to the
end.”'
This bureau is informed locally to
night that Dr. Hardman will formally
announce his candidacy Sunday but
has not up to this hour been able to
verify the information by communica
tion with Dr. Hardman.
among the
boys of the Y. M. C. A. was 'organized
yesterday afternon to adopt the eighth
family to make happy during the
Christmas holidays. This makes, so
far, eight committees of forty-eight
boys who are at work on this plan of
bringing good cheer and an expres
sion of love into the lives of many
whose Christmas-time would be dull
and dreary.
If there are other boys who are
willing to do this work, Mr. Forbes
is ready to organize committees as
fast as boys will , express themselves
as desirious of cooperating in this
splendid Christian service.
Meeting for Boys Sunday Afternoon.
Miss Millie Rutherford will address
the boys’ meeting on Sunday after
noon at 3:30 o’clock in the headquar
ters of the Y. M. C. A. Her subject
will be: “The True Christmas Spirit.”
The boys of Athens are urged to at
tend. There is no mord attractive
speaker the boys will have to address
them than this noble, Christian wo
man.
The committee is especially anxi
ous that the boys attend in large num
bers the meeting Sunday, because
this is the last Sunday before Christ
mas, and definite details of the Christ
mas plan will be announced at this
time, and the last offering for the
Christmas fund-taken.
No Men’s Meeting Sunday.
The men’s meeting has been called
in on account of the congratulatory
services, which will be held at the
new Christian church Sunday after
noon at 3:30 o’clock. The religious
committee felt that they should join
in with the brethern of the Christian
church in their expressions of grati
tude to God over the wonderful work
and faith shown by the members of
this congregation.
Tomorrow week the regular men’s
meeting will be held at the Elite The-

War Upon Pain! >
Pain is a visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every
emergency if you keep a small bottle
of Sloan’s Liniment handy. It is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered
Simply laid on the skin—no rubbing
required—it drives the pain aWay. It
is really wonderful. , .
Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal.
writes: “Last Saturday, after tramp
ing around the Panama Exposition
with wet feet, I came home with my
neck so stiff that I couldn’t turn it
I applied Sloan’s Liniment freely and
went to bed. To my surprise, next
morning the stiffness had almost dis
appeared, four hours :after the second
application I was as good as new.’
