20 Free Business Scholarships
WHY WE DO THIS.
A newspaper with a subscription list the site of The Georgian spends
a great deni of time and money each year collecting and renewing its
subscriptions. Experience has shown that the use of special prltes and
the employment of experts to do this work Is a wise Investment from a
business standpoint. We simply contract with an expert who knows the
management of these things as the engineer knows his engine. We have
taken a special otnce in the Austell building, room 321, in which to conduct
the work; a. large force of assistants win conduct the contest and person
ally visit almost every home In Georgia. The Georgian and News is main
ly a Georgia Papei'—Jt goes some to other, states, but not nearly so much
as other papers do \Ve do not try to get circulation much outside of Geor
gia. AVe are making it a home paper. This opportunity is superior to
most similar ones given here before, because the wealth of prizes which
have seldom .been equaled are to be divided to Atlanta and Georgia alone.
As we have told our readers, the advertiser, who pays three times as
much toward the expense of newspapers as the reader pa vs, needs large
circulations to bring him customers. So newspapers can ufford to give
these Inducements from time to time for the benefits they bring their ad-
vertlsers. The Georgian is going to 30,000 homes now, and we expect to
add from five to ten thousand more before this contest ends In February
These so-called Prizes are genuine and will be exhibited In prominent
places soon. The Georgian tdoes not simply give them away—for we
get much In return—but the one who wins the prize need make no out
lay. but simply ask her friends to take the Georgian and use the votes this
gives for her benefit.
At Dixie Business College to be given away
in The Georgian Subscription Contest—ei
ther Stenographic or Commercial, as selected.
There are 94 Prizes to be given away—among which are $1,000 in Gold; one $2,000 Automobile, one $650 Runabout, twenty trips to Cuba,

Famous Woman Is Here To
Deliver Lecture
Sunday.
Miss Jane Addams, the famous so
ciologist, writer and lecturer along so
ciological lines, is a very retiring and
modest woman, but graciousness it
self; so that It was with, her usual
kindly courtesy, she delayed her li/nch-
eon hour a few minutes to see a rep
resentative of The Geot fcian, soon after
her arrival at the residence of Mrs.
Victor Krelgshaber, whose guest she
will be from Saturday through Sunday
while in Atlanta tor the purpose of de
livering u lecture under , the auspices
of the Associated Charities on Sunday
afternoon.
The famous woman, whose masterly
intellect and wonderful energy, com
bined with her great love for human
ity and her great work for humanity
has caused her to be known ail over
the world. Is a very quiet, unobtrusive
little woman. She was gowned in a
dark cloth tailored suit. She had re
moved her hat and her sweet, gentle
face bore the Imprint of her nattire.
"I am only in the city for a very
short time,” Miss Addams said,
shall leave tomorrow afternoon
about 5 o’clock, going back to Chicago.”
When asked what she thought about
applying the settlement work to the
Southern cities. Miss Addams replied:
“I think that, the social settlement
work In the Southern cities, where
there Is, of course, a smaller area of
poverty-stricken population than In
the larger cities of the North, would
be Just ar-effeetlve as it has been
proven to be where the work has been
undertaken, modified of course to suit
the different environment/) and condi
tions.”
In reply to an Inquiry as to what po
sitions she thought women could do the
best and most effective work In civic
tovernment, Miss Addams*said:
“Any work that a woman can do
well she should never hesitate to un
dertake. Of course it depends entirely
on individual gifts that would make a
woman valuable in a position of civic
authority. Just as In any other work.
Any city will do well to have women
interested in Its affairs of government,
either in a position of authority or in
any other wuy.”
Miss Addams Is herself a member of
the board of education of Chicago and
has done great work along educations!
lines, ns fihe has In any direction where
fhe has turned her attention.
She refuted to nay anything about
herself personally.. Of her lecture
which Is to h® delivered Sunday after
noon at the Grand, Miss Addams also
refused to comment, saying with a
smile:
“I think it unwise to forestall whst I 1
shall have to say Sunday, don’t you?”
And ns the tired lines came into her
face, despite the brave smile and the
effort to be kind in the face of thfc fact
that she had Just arrived from a long
Journey and was being detained from
the refreshment and rest she so much
need, M | t The Georgian representative
■poke a few words of thanks nnd left,
with the memory of a very fascinating
Personality and the hope that is being
rherlshed In common with thousands of
other Atlantans to hear what the gentle
teacher of brotherhood to men will have
to say In her lecture Sunday afternoon
on the "Newer Ideals In Philanthropy.”

Rules and regulations are now being
prepared that will entirely revolution
tse the present system In vogue in
the Grady hospital.
Under these new rules, gossiping
among fhe nurses and the house stafTs
must cease, under penalty of expulsion
from the hospital. Some one In author
ity. presumably Superintendent Mea
dor, will be delegated as press censor
and will be the only person authorized
to give out any information concerning
the Institution.
News that a limit Is to be placed on
the use of their vocal chords has
reached the nurses In the hospital, and,
It Is reported, has created quite a stir,
an agitation that may result In num
bers of resignations. Many of the
nurses, It Is understood, have declared
their Intention of leaving the hospital
If the proposed new rules are put Into
effect. They say they feel that the
medical board has no rlght-to place a
ban oh their talk.
The rules are being formulated by a
special committee of the medical board.
As soon as they are completed a special
meeting of the medical board will be
called and the rules adopted. This
meeting Is expected to be held within
the next few- days.
The board of trustees will meet on
Tuesday night and It was hoped that
the new regulations will be ready for
submission to the trustee* at that time.
Dr. IV. A. Crowe, president of the med
ical board, stated Saturday, however,
that the committee on rules would not
be rfady to report by Tuesday.
This special committee consists of
Dr. James N. Ellis, Dr. Charles O. Gld-
dtngs and Dr. George H. Noble.
The members of the committee de
cline to discuss the proposed changes
In the hospital, hut It Is stated that
they will mean a reformation of the
whole Institution.
Members of the medical hoard say
they are satisfied all the trouble In the
hospital Is due to gossip, and that the
main Idea of the new rules Is to put a
stop to this "too much talk.’’
It Is understood that the rules will
go to the extent of shutting off con
versation between the nurses and mem
bers of the house staff, except on busi
ness of the hospital. It is said this Is
the feature tc which the nurses are
registering so much opposition.
According to Dr. Crowe, the hospital
Is ten years behind the times, as far as
Its rules are concerned, and a change In
every department Is absolutely neces
sary.

Special to Tba Georgian.
Cartersvllle, Go., Nov. 23.—Of nil the
notables now In attendance upon the
sessions of the North Georgia' confer
ence, there Is none more striking than
that of General Clement A. Evans, of
Atlanta.
An especial Interest Is felt In the
venerable soldier by the people of Car.
tersvitte, for as the first pastor of the
Methodist church of this city Just alter
the close of the Civil war. his name Is
connected with some of the most stir
ring Incidents recorded upon the pages
of Bartow county's history. Shortly
after the surrender of General Robert
E. Lee at Appomattox, General Evans,
who was there In command of n di
vision of the Confederate army, mount
ed his little mare, "Lady," and returned
through the country to his Georgia
home. Upon his arrival In Georgia he
was given an appointment to the Car
tersvllle church.by. the Georgia confer
ence. When the gallant lighter came
to this city to take up his duties as a
soldier of the cross he found within the
limits of hi* charge a coterie of famous
local ministers of aevrral denomina
tions, some of whom hail been with
him In the army of the Confederacy
nnd who stood ready to enlist with him
In a campaign against the evil one. •
General Evans had laid down his
arms, not because.he had been con
quered, hut because fate had decreed
hts cause should be a lost, one, and
when he found the gallant staff of sol
diers ready to act as Ills aides In n fight
against the Power of Darkness, ho or
ganised his staff and prepared to lead
them Into one of the greatest cam
paigns of religious revivals this section
of |hc state has ever witnessed. There
were eleven members of his staff, all\nf
whom have passed to their rewards
with the exception of the "Grand Old
Man of Bartow," Hon, William H. Fel
ton. Their names, which are still fresh
In the memories of the pfeople of this
state, were:
Hon. Warren Akin, member of the
Confederate congress from this district,
member of the Oeorgla house of rep
resentatives, of which he was speaker,
and father of the lamented John Wes
ley Akin. Hon J. Watt Harris, Sr.,
who was one of the most prominent
lawyers of his day. and a local preacher
of great power. He was the father-of
the-late Judge J. W. Harris, Jr., one of
Cartersvllle’* most prominent attorneys.
Robert H. Walton, a Presbyterian
minister of great power and eloquence.
The father of Rev. Fletcher Walton,
pastor of St. Johns Methodist church
In Augusta and member of the North
Georgia conference. Another son, Hon.
W. C. Walton, Is clerk of the Bartow
county court.
Rev. William Harris, whose ardent
love for the South and loyalty to the
Confederate cause forced him to refu
gee from the hills of East Tennessee
on nccount of the many Northern sym
pathisers In that section. He was the
father Of Hon. Nat Harris,
Judgo James Milner, who was a noted
man of that time In the state and who
has left behind him descendants and
relatives who have contributed many
of the best men to Bartow's official and
religious life,
William Cunyus, a powerful man In
religious-work.
Dr, W. W. Leake, on* of the greatest
physicians of Bartow, and a man whose
voice was heard many times in relig
ious revivals.
Colonel R. H. Jones, a gallant Con-
federata leader, who Joined -the Con
federate ranks with five of his brothers
at Rome, and was made captain of his
company, afterwards reaching the pro.
motion to colonel of his regiment. Col
onel Jones was a prominent inanufac
turer of this city. He was the uncle of
the late Rev. Sam Jones.
Hezpklak Best,, about whose memory
many or Bartow county’s traditions
center.
Colonel Samford, a local preacher of
great force and eloquence.
Dr. .William H. Felton, whose voice
has since been raised In the halls of the
national congress, and whose deeds
have contributed volume* to the history
of hi* Mate and hi* county.
General Evans, with the representa
tive of The Georgian, called at tfie
home of the venerable Dr. Felton, and
although the old man Is extremely fee
ble and Kvalks with difficulty, support
ed by a staff, when he recognised the
form of hi* one-time leader coming up
the front walk to hi* horns, he threw
away his'support, and with a cry of
Joy met his visitor at the top of the
steps where they embraced for.several
minutes. For an hour or more the old
men exchanged reminiscences and lived
over again the stirring years of the
past. They spoke of the "Battle of
Manassas,” by which they meant a re
vival of religion they had held at Cass.
vllle, which little town was at that time
the county seat of Casa (nqw Bartow)
county, and was named Manassas In
honor of the famous battle.
After talking for a lime,.the old gen-
dlemen were rcqtjeeted by the repre
sentative of The Georgian to pose for a
photograph, and' General Evans replied
he would feel honored to be allowed to
alt for a photograph with thB "Grand
Old Man of Bartow." Dr. Felton gra
ciously acknowledged the compliment
paid him by the general and said that
he had never felt more honored In hi*
life. Mrs. Felton, wife of the aged doc
tor. was present and add** much to the
interest of the occasion by her brilliant
conversation.
General Evans Is the president of the
Preachers' Aid Society of the North
Georgia Conference, which Is on* of the
most Important department* of the
body. His report for the past year's
work was fine, and he received the con.
gratulatlon* of the conference on his
work.
By actual results obtained, Bagwell
Business College has shown conclu
sively that the new nnd wonderful eys-
tem of OLartler Shorthand, which It
ha* the exclusive right to teach In At
lanta/makes a'much better stenog
rapher In one-half the time required
for the old systems such as Graham,
Munson and Gregg.
Chartier shorthand contains only ten
simple rules and the alphabet. It Is
so simple that a child can learn It. and
yet It can be written with greater
speed and read with far more accu
racy than the old systems which con
tain hundreds of rules and exceptions
and thousands of word signs and arbi
trary contractions. Any word In the
English language can be written In
Chartier shorthand without lifting the
pen.
Old 8choola Challenged to Contest.
It Is a fact well known to every one
at schopls teaching the old systems
Shorthand have denounced unspar
ingly the Chartier system ever since
Bugivell Business College secured the
exclusive'right to teach It In Atlanta.
These schools know that Chartier
saves at least ons-half the time re
quired for the old systems and that It
makes a better stenographer. 'Hence,
It |h to their Interest to fight It. In
order to prove the great superiority of
the Chartier system In a manner that
everybody could understand, Bagwell
Business College has challenged time
after time the old schools to contest
publicly any of their six months’ pupils
against a three months' pupil of the
Chartier. The challenge has never been
accepted. -
