GIRLS IM ENGLAND
ASK SQUARE DEAL
Declare Fact They Do Not Have
Equal Chances With Boys
Causes Discontent.
LONDON. May 25.—Resuming her
role as "the mouthpiece of the inartic
ulate,” Miss Josephine Knowles again
discoursed at the Steinway hall on the
subject of unmarried daughters.
Since her last lecture she said she
had ree-etvT-d hundreds of letters from
girls who were unhappy, who were liv
ing at home and who were cared for in
the way of food, clothes and necessa
ries. but were without the command of
a sixpence, and had no training or edu
cation fitting them to earn their own
living.
It had been suggested that immigra
tion on a large scale, such as she had
suggested, was not a sufficiently drastic
remedy. What did her critics put for
ward as an alternative —the lethal
chamber? At any rate, her solution.
Miss Knowles declared, was based on
sound common sense. For here in Eng
land we had a large number of super
fluous women and in the colonies men
were wanting wives and unable to find
them.
It was incontestable that there was
at the present day a great mass of
women and girls in this country who,
for one reason or another, were out of
the running. They had practically no
separate existence—they could say, "1
will do this or that,” and had to qualify
it by adding, "If they will give me the
money." Was it to be wondered at that
there was a great and growing restless
ness among women, and was anybody
prepared to say that it was not a
danger?
The groat reason was that middle
class girls had not enough scope and
outlet in their parents' hands. They
used to b> content with their needle
work and their pianoforte, but those
days were past, and It was the anti
quated point of view still held by many
well meaning parents which galled and
made them unhappy.
They could not conceal from them
selves that parental love often was
cloaked by a good deal of potty tyranny
which kept tlie girls of the family In an
upholstered cage. They w’ere kept In a
narrow grove by what seemed an in
visible spell, and until that spell was
broken and girls were given equal
chances with the hoys, women would
not be content.

LtLJth AIWiTA GEOKUIAJN AMU MfiVVO! BATUKDAI, MAY 23, llfiz.
The Makers Had a Lot of Fun,
But It Required Some
Work, Too.
•
The editors in their preface call it “a
bundle of bull,” but the fact is. you
might go to two-thirds of the colleges
and universities of the country and not
find so good an annual as "The Alci
ph.ronian." just issued by the graduat
ing class of the Atlanta Boys High
school.
From title sheet to what is called
The End-Up" (the same being the pic
ture of a monkey, banging by his tai!
from a tree), every page is a tribute to
the energy, capability and joy of living
of these voting Atlantans.
They say they had a lot of fun in
getting it up. That doubtless is true,
but every ounce of fun they had was
the result of hard work. But in a few
days they'll be lucky days, with noth
in' to do till September.
Those who did the bulk of the work
on The Alcii’hronfan" are:
Editor-in-chief, Howell Foreman,
business manager, Easom J. Bond; art
editor. Albert L. Snodgrass; editor of
classes. Hewitt W. Chambers, assistant
editor-in-chief. W. C. Matthews; as
sistant business manager, Lewis A.
Pinkussohn; sporting editor, George L
Jr.: editor of commercial depart
ment Glenn Waters.
The art work In the annual is spmr.-
did Albert Snodgrass is a wonder foi
a 17-vear-old boy, and he found good
assistants in Frank L. Stanton. Jr., and
Ames Fraser. Their drawings and dec
orations lighten and beautify nearly
every page, and there is mi»htv little of
the amateurish about them.
The book is an example of tasteful
typography and good presswork, is
chock full of good reading matter, even
if one doesn't have a personal ' nteresl
in the hoys of the school, and if the
people of Atlanta don’t buy out the
entire edition they will be Jackingjn
appreciation of a good bargain and will
have forgotten how to encourage the
young idea in his shooting.
Whenever two or three old high
school graduates get together they la
ment the decadence of the present and
tell about the brilliapt performances in
"them good old days." But that is all
bosh. The boys of the class of 1912
have done such a stunt as was never
before attempted In the forty years of
the Atlanta Roys High school.
LONDON GARTERS
TOLD TO STRIKE
LONDON. May 25. —With the strike
of the transport workers as a nucleus,
labor troubles in London are growing
at an alarming rate. The Carters union
has called a strike of all draymen and
drivers of busses and delivery wagons.
If effectual, this will tie up traffic and
prevent the distribution of foodstuffs.
This would bring famine close to 5,-
000,000 persons.
The head of the transport workers to
day served notice upon the dock,com
panies that the men would not return
to work as long as the companies main
tained an open shop and hired non
unionists.
As a result of the transport walk
out, the London and Brighton and the
Southeastern railroads notified all ship
pers that they would not accept the re
sponsibility for delay in the non-de
livery of merchandise conveyed part
way in transit by barges.
STRIKE HITS GLASGOW.
GLASGOW. May 25. The transport
strike spread to Glasgow today when
shipping companies from this port to
London were tied up.
HOBSON AND HANLY
WILL DEBATE FOR
THE STH REGIMENT
The Hobson-Hanly debate at the Au
ditorium on next Thursday evening.
May 30, will be one of the leading
events in Atlanta the coming week. Al
ready nearly a thousand tickets have
been engaged for and it is expected
that the Auditorium will be comforta
bly filled to hear this forensic combat
between two of the leading statesmen
of the country.
Interest is being manifested by the
friends of the Fifth regiment in mak
ing this an occasion well worth while
from a financial as well as a literary
and entertainment standpoint. The
subject to be discussed. "Resolved,
That the United States should control
the sea. both in the Atlantic ocean and
in the Pacific ocean," is a most timely
one, bearing mainly on the topic of
universal peace.
Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson,
the famous congressman and orator
from Alabama, will champion the af
firmative and ex-Governor J. Frank
Hanley, for many years past leader of
the reform forces in Indiana, will rep
resent the negative.
Reared on Meat Diet
Baby Weighs 37 Lbs*
At Age of 9 Months
NEW YORK. May 25. —At nine and
one-half months old. Douglas Daniel
I’udenhoefer is a fat-cheeked, laughing
baby of 37 pounds. He is as large and
active as an average child of two years.
He is able to stand alone and does not
know what colic or other infant mala
dies are.
His principal food is—meat.
His twenty-.vear-old mother emphat
ically declares that the baby is a living
refutation °f the vegetarian diet theory
advanced by Dr. David Allyn Gorton,
the octogenarian father of three-weeks
old twins.
"My baby has been eating meat since
he was four and one-half months old.”
said Mrs. Dudenhoefer, as she proudly
rolled up a sleeve to display the folds
of fat on the child's pudgy arm.
"Until I put him on a meat diet he
was of normal size for his age. When
four months old he had two teeth. He
was rather weak about that time and
began to look puny. I worried over
the little fellow, and after talking th**
matter ov6r with my husband I decided
to try an experiment. I fed the baby
meat.
"At first we gave him a little gravy.
, He ate It up greedily, licked the spoon
, and cried for more. We then spread
gravy on a cracker and let him eat that.
I hen we began giving him meat. He
could not masticate it, but with his two
teeth was able to gnaw at it and suck
all the nutriment jvhich it contained.
Baby at once began to grow larger.
“ i 1 was astonished and delighted at the
result. He was a different baby; bet
. ter natured. healthier and happier. We
gave him beefsteak, veal, pork and
; lamb. We, of course, cooked it well
before giving it to him and we watched
> him carefully so he would not get a
I piece stuck In his throat and choke to
. death.”
> The Demons of the Swamp
are mosquitoes. As they sting they put
> deadly malaria germs in the blood.
Then follow the ley chills and the fires
s of fever. The appetite flies and the
strength fails; also malaria often paves
the way for deadly typhoid. But Elec
tric Bitters kill and cast out the ma
, laria germs from the blood; give you a
I fine appetite and renew your strength
. "After long suffering." wrote William
1 Fretwell, of Lucama, N. ('., "three bot
tles drove all the malaria from my
f system, and I've had good health ever
since." Best for all stomach, liver and
kidney ills. 50 cts. at all druggists.
