HOW’D YOU LIKE TO HAVE A BABY FOR YOUR XMAS PRESENT?

Don’t you want a baby for your Christmas present! • '
The Methodist Orphanage at Dticatur has-four, and the Home of the Friendless two fine-looking youngsters to give away.
Don’t you want a baby—a baby with red cheeks and n wee, bit of a pink mouth—a baby that laughs when you make faces at it and cries when it’s hungry—a baby that will lie a joy during the day mid keep you awake at night,
sometimes! Don’t you think it would make you happy to henr little feet coming down the hall as you walked up on the front porch, and then feel a pair of soft arms around your neck!
■ Do you envy the man who is at present slipping in the back way at nights to keep the kids from seeing what Santa Claus is sending them! Don’t you over wish you could boro your friends witli stories of what the kids do, which,
after all, nre not half so boring as soijie other things!
There are six little ones who may be adopted by responsible people. The world has not been very good to them so far, for much of their short lives has been spent in an orphanage, a mighty fine place but not jw good for
children as a home. Except for the loss of their parents, the children are just the same as other children. They are of varying ages nnd colors of hair and eyes. As to their character—the heads of the institutions can tell you about that.
Isn’t a baby the most precious thing in the world! Then wouldn’t it make a good Christmas present!

Revised Plans Sub
mitted to Philadel
phia Firm. •
Washington, Dec. 17.—The supervls
lng architect of the treasury completed
the revision of the original six bids for
the construction of the new Atlanta
postofflee today, and a jevl.ed plan has
been submitted to the lowest bidder,
the Charles McCaul Company, of Phil
adelphia. The McCaul Company’s bid
was as follows:
Marble construction, JS69.690; gran
ite construction, 2838,590; limestone
fonatructlon, 3784,090. The revised
plans call for a granlts construction
Instead of marble, as originally con
templated by the treasury.
It Is almost certain that the McCaul
Company will accept the treasury’s re
vised estimates for the granite con
struction and the contract will proba
bly be awarded to them. A week or
ten days will elapse before the plans
are returned to the treasury by ths com
pany, and If everything Is satisfactory
the contract will be Immediately
awarded to them. They will be re
quired to execute a bond for half of
the whole amount of their contract,
Atlantans can, therefore, expect to
see work start on the superstructure
of their new Federal building within
the next month.

DON’T FORGET NAME
ON XMAS PACKAGE
The Atlanta postofflee Is now feeling
the effects of the Christmas rush and
within a few days the scenes in this
business barometer will be busy ones.
Postmaster Blodgett reports that the
office Is feeling the effects of outgoing
mall and extra clerks are being em
ployed to take care of the buetness.
Before the rush Is well started, sixty
extra clerke will be at work taking
care of the business. Half of this force
will be at work in tbe registry depart
ment. I
It Is here that most of the rush will
take place and , Postmaster Blodgett
asks the public to co-operate with him
In taking care of the heavy business.
This can be done by mailing registered
Chrletmas presents before the last min
ute. Home people even go so far as to
send them early and mark on tbe pack,
age when It Is to be opened.
But above all things, Postmaster
Blodgett asks that senders of parcels
be sure and place their names In the
corner of the package; eo the postofflee
authorities will know who sends It. This
Is often necessary and avoids consid
erable trouble and delay.
