DESIGN CHURCH
EONIDDNG FOLK
Whitehall Temple To Be Built
by Baptists and Planned to
Attract Children.
A new church, planned especially to
att act boys and girls, will be built by
the Central Baptist church, Dr. C. A.
Ridley pastor. It will be called White
hall Temple and will be at Whitehall
and Cooper streets.
The building will be so arranged that
person? who attend Sunday school will
feel that they are missing part of the
service if they do not reinain for
church. The two departments will be
brought closer together by having a
closer relationship between young peo
ple and older ones, for the Sunday
school rooms will bo made part of the
church, and the classes will assemble in
the church room for closing exercises. .
"We can not disguise the fact that
l the church- is not holding the young
people as most buildings ate construct
ed. and we mean to have the younger
people feel that when they attend Sun
i day school they are only getting part
j of the services." said Dr. Ridley.
Building to Cost $75,000.
"We are going to have the Sunday
school tooms opening Info the main
church, to stand as a part of it., with
no walls to intervene and impress the
classes that they have no connection
with regular church services.
"Under the present plan children are
given to feel that their study of Sunday
school lessons constitutes all. that is
arranged for them each Sabbath, and
older people do not attend Sunday
school because they feel this branch
of worship is for younger people en
tirely."
Announcement of plans for the pur
chase of a site for the new church was
I given early today. The present build
; ing and site at F'orsyth and Garnett
l streets will be sold and the new build
l ing. which is to cost $<5,000. will be be,-
; gun by September I.

ATLANTA SPIRIT
GERM IS LOOSED
I ——
Boosters to Make Their Efforts
Count for All of Georgia
Hereafter.
Members of tile Ad club are
busy today with a plan for Atlanta to
extend a more cordial hand of fellow
ship to all of sister Georgia cities and
towns The idea Is to make the "At
lanta spirit" hereafter the "Georgia
•spirit." ami the first step is to be a
series of one-day excursion trips
throughout. state by several hun
dred of Atlanta's leading citizens.
The project was proposed at a din
ner of the Ad Men's club at the Pied
mont hotel last night by W. F. Park
burst. It was immediately approved by
the Chamber of Commerce, through
President Wilmer L. Moore. On the
spot It was decided that Macon should
be v’isited in a special train as soon
as the trip could be arranged.
Returned delegates from the Nation
al Ad Men s convention at Dallas. Tex
as. compared the Texas cities with At
lanta.
Birmingham Not So Cordial.
If all who spoke‘over five minutes
Mere fined $2.50, as President Albert
Adams announced would be done, the
club lias a swollen treasury today.
The delegates made their first stop
at Birmingham. But it seems that they
were handled rather roughly there by
a number of ex-Atlantans who thought
that boosting was a foolish habit. So
the speakers immediately jumped to
Texas.
