AND WOMAN’S INTERESTS
THE TREE OF LIFE IS
THEIR CHRI8TMAS TREE.
Where are the lilies that swayed and
bloomed
In the garden that summer day?
Tell me, thou Christ-child. Lily of God,
Where they have passed away?
In Paradise fair
They blossom rare:
# Never more shall they feel the wintry
And the ’Tree of Life is their shading
tree.
Where are the doves with the rose-red
" eyes.
That cooed In the wood at night.
Tell me, thou Chrlst-chlld. Dove of the
World,
Where have they taken flight?
No net Is spread.
No shaft Is sped
In celestial groves where they seek
their bread,
And the Tree of Life Is their nesting
tree.
Where are the fleecy, snow-white lambs
That once In the grasses played?
Tell me, thou Chrlst-chlld, Heavenly
Lamb,
Where are their dear heads laid?
, Of immortal sheen
Are their meadows green;
Clear fountains of water flow between;
And the Tree of Life Is their shearing
tree.
Where are the little ones, dimpled and
soft,—
The lost ones we loved so well?
Where are their voices, the sound of
their feet?—
Pitying Chrlst-chlld, tell!
In Heaven's own hall
They are gather'd all,
With the morning stars for their ta
pers tall;
And the Tree of Life Is their Christmas
tree.

Miss Marie Alice Phillips Goes to New York
The resignation Of Miss Marie Alice
Phillips as editor of the social depart
ment of The Atlanta Journal Is n very
serious loss to Journalism In Georgia.
A young woman of unusual mental at

with a slflgularly well developed talent
for acquiring "news,” Miss Phillips
made for herself a most enviable posi
tion among the newspaper women of
the South. Her admirable work has
not been confined to the chronicling of
Social matters, but she has kept In
touch with current questions, and has
written with remarkable strength and
Interest on Issues of Importance to
thinking people. There Is an especial
and unique charm In her literary style.
Miss Phillips numbered among her
warmest friends the other newspaper
women of Atlanta, which fact Is a
notable tribute to her personal and In
tellectual attributes. She left fox New
York on Sunday, where she will reside
with an uncle, and will pursue her lit
erary work In the metropolis.
Miss Phillips has been succeeded ns
editor of the woman's department of
The Journal by Miss Mabel Drake,
who has for several years been a most
gifted and valuable assistant of Miss
Phillips.
Mrs. Walter Howard will continue to
be associated with Miss £>ruke In the
department. These two accomplished
and talented young women have al
ready achieved much distinction in
their newspaper work.

belonged to her great-grandfather. Rev.
William Dougins, who came from Scot
land to this country In 1746. This In
spired her to furnish her entire house
In antique furniture, for which New
Orleans Is noted, much of It having
been brought over by the French many
years ugo. When she selected sohie of
the pieces, she found the prices fabu
lous and her courage failed her. Final
ly. so strong the desire grew to carry
>ut her Ideas, that she decided to write
stories, by the sale of which she might
accomplish her purpose. As she sold
her stories, she immediately converted
the money Into some coveted piece.
She continued In this way until her
ntlro home was handsomely furnish
ed and on the back of each piece is
pasted the story that purchased It.
