This is a picture of the two sides
of the bronze medal presented to boys
and girls who join the Children’s
Founders Roll of the Stone Mountain
Memorial.
On the left is the fron or obverse
side of the medal. The design con- :
sists of a miniature reproduction of
the equestrian figures of Jefferson
Davis, Robert E. Lee and of Stone
wall Jackson, which are now being
carved on Stone Mountain. Below the
figure is the following inscription:
“Children’s Founders Roll. Stone
Mountain Confederate Memorial.”
On the right is the reverse side of
medal, consisting of a miniature re
production of an oblique angle view
of the entrance to the great Stone
Mountain Memorial Hall, which is to
be carved out of solid granite at the
base of the mountain, immediately
underneath the central group.
The medal was designed by August
us Lukeman, the sculptor of the me
morial, and is a faithful reproduction,
down to the minutest detail, of his
master model for the three horsemen
and~his model for the Memorial Hall.
The medal is made of bronze and is
the same size and thickness as a fifty
cent piece. It is perforated at the top
so that fa can be worn by a boy as
watch fqjp Children’s or a girl as a lavaliere.
The Founders Roll is the
juvenile department of the Stone
Mountain Memorial. It is composed
of boys and girls who contribute one
dollar to the cost of carving the great
est monument of human history, in
memory of the soldiers of the Confed
evacy. Each child who contributes a
dollar receives one of the medals pic
tured above, and the name of each is j
’ enrolled in a great Book of Memory,
which will be preserved for all time in j
the Hall. Opposite the name of each J '
child will be written the name of a
Confederate ancestor whose memory
his or her contribution is made.
Thus the children of the south are
given an opportunity to play a con
spicuous and honorable part in
creation of this new and superlative
wonder of the world. These

SAVES PENNIES FOR
CAPITAL CHRISTMAS
44 M RS. HULL has a capital plan
of saving and giving Christ
mas capital which she calls
her ‘fancy fund,' because she uses it
exactly as she wishes, with no drawing
on tiie regular family income,” Mrs.
Ross exclaimed enthusiastically to her
friends at an afternoon tea.
"The day after Christinas Mrs. Hull
begins saving pennies that come into
her hands through the year, She
places them In a toy bank and adds
six per cent Interest at the end of
the year. If she has saved ten dol
lars in pennies she adds sixty cents,
which she says pays postage on her
Christmas parcels. She always has a
fund for Christmas, for she has never
acquired the ‘penny habit of giving' to
church activities. Last year she di
vided the ‘fancy fund’ among her
nieces and nephews, with instructions
that the small amount was to be
p] ace d in saving and to be added to,
or use( j as capital to compile more
capital. The results were interesting,
f or eac h recipient must always keep
aU j 0lin t j a reserve for a future
sav ings account.
"Once Mrs. Hull purchased seeds
and bulbs and distributed them where
they would lie appreciated; once she
subscribed for magazines which ro
tated among a large number of read
ers, some in public institutions. An
other time she ordered toys, games
and books for a children’s home; an
other year she procured dozens of
small dolls, with remnants for clothes,
to send to a needy mission school.
Once she sent hundreds of greeting
cards, and once scores of inspiring
mottoes to places where such things
are seldom seen. Her mother one
year received a fresh bouquet or a plant
every few weeks during the year. This
year her husband, who promised her
his pennies, has added to her ‘fancy
fund.’ She has over twelve dollars
with the interest, and she has figured
she may spend twenty-five cents each
week during the year in making some
one happier—fifty-two weeks of send
ing Christmas cheer! As Ideas and
opportunities present themselves each
week she will use the fund. The first
week she invited a homesick college
boy into her home to spend the week
end.
“It seems to me that Mrs. Hull Is
accumulating more than cold capital
in her penny plan. She is establish
ing a ‘bank of blessings’ with unlimited
‘reserve funds of love,’ which com
pounds interest at a rapid rate and
pays one hundred per cent.”
“Dlvlnelike dividends,” Mrs. Leigh
answered softly.—Gertrude Walton.

CHRISTMAS PRESENT
FOR THE SHOP GIRLS
T vey HE woman of the made vast a outspread leisurely sur- of
Christmas goods, then turned to
the girl behind the counter.
“You must have a Chrlstmasy feel
ing in here,” she congratulated. “I
almost envy you, my dear. That
group of school girls did seem so hap
py over something.”
It was early, with very few cus
tomers. The woman talked at the
counter ten minutes or more, then
was conscious of a low, peculiar
whistle.
The counter girl flushed anxiously
and moved straight toward the office
of the room manager.
The customer went on a few yards
to another girl.
“What Is it?” she asked; “my talk
ing with her? She is a nice girl.”
“Janie is awful nice, paying a sis
ter’s expenses at school, and support
ing her mother. Pity the room man
ager wants her job for another—but
please don’t be seen talking to me any
more. I—I can’t risk losing my
pldce.”
“Why, my poor child! I should be
seen buying instead of talking. U’m!
And down by the door a girl said that
this store stops salaries on vacations.
U’m 1”
The girl Janie was just coining from
the office, crying.
“Fired you, did they?” snapped the
customer, frowning. “Tell me how?”
“Here—here,” fumed the floor man
ager, at the door. “Our discipline—
sr, why Mrs. Waite, I—I didn’t recog
nize you in that plain dress. It’s—er,
all right. N-nothing will be done. And
—and don’t mention it to Mr. Hall. It
might—er, lose me my—head.”
“Might be a good thing for the help,
too,” ungraciously. “Now, look here.
Janie Is to have a new position, at
half salary extra, as sort of room
host to go round and talk with cus
tomers and help smooth out their per
plexities. And vacations of all the
girls are to be taken with salaries con
tinued.”
“But—”
“Or I shall change my custom to a
more humane store. Have a talk with
the owners. Tell them the alternative.
They will Jump to do it. No, Janie,”
at the girl’s wondering look,” I don’t
own a cent of stock; Just supposed to
be the largest customer. And—er, I’m
trying to make all you girls a Christ
mas present ’’—Frank Herbert Sweet.

i STAR OF BETHLEHEM
[*
(1 /"V F OLD the Star of Bethlehem
led wise men to the manger
cradle of a Child who was to be
the Savior of the world. Since
then its light has streamed ;
t across the ages for man’s guid- i
ance, but how often has it failed
to penetrate the hearts It ?
t should! How oft have greed,
it and plggislmess dulled Its fair
luster in the hearts of men till
Christmas comes to be a grab
I bag or a bore!
> But the Star still shines in
I the hearts of those who truly ?
yearn for "Glory to God In the
I* highest, and on earth, peace, n
id good will toward men.” It still ft
* beckons to the cradle of lowll- 5
ness, where love is above honors ft
‘ and riches. May it enter our
C. hearts this Christmastide, and ?!
Hi leading us away from selfishness, ?!
i* point to the fair goal of charity. ft
Id May we forget our pride and *
self, and may the Star of Bethle
itude, hem illume our hearts with grat- ?!
and joy, and kindness to
v* all men. Slay its beckoning be
heeded, and lead us as It did the
# sages of the of Christ, the past to the cradle
i the Savior of the
world.—11. Lucius Cook.

“Only a Ford Could
Get Through”
m
. How many times have you heard this
or that place described as one where only
a Ford could go? Ford cars take the heavi
est road shocks of every day use. Ford
cars are without complicated mechanism
and therefore handle easiest under all
driving conditions.
And this is not just today. For over
| 20 years Ford has been building cars like
i this. Fourteen million all capable of
cars,
| equal service have been serving owners in
i
that time. Vr
i The Ford buyer is always sure that the
: car he buys is a good car. It has to be—if
it’s a Ford.
