“The Houses in Our Midst”
MUSIC AND DANCE
They say, “Music and dance will be barred.’’
Do this not, if the houses remain.
*
Make them no worse!
When the serpent stung beautiful and beloved Eurydice, it is said
Orpheus, by the power of music, penetrated the depths of Hades to
bring her back to life.
Under the spell of his golden tones, the heart of Pluto was soft
ened.
K Tantalus forgot his undying thirst.
The torturing wheel of Ixion ceased to turn.
And the weary Danaids found rest.
Truth is in the legend.
None may measure the might of music.
Otherwise, it were near to sacrilege to link, only in thought, the
lyre given by Apollo with a mechanical piano, and the name of Or
pheus with the sordid figure of a house “professor.”
But, even as you smile, this creature’s wandering notes, though ’
intended only to exite wantonness with their jangle, may in the heart
of some lost woman frame again the chord that was lost.
In that minute she remembers her girlhood.
Recalling her home and the tenderness of a father for his daugh
ter, for the time she may forget the brothel and the defiling touch of 7
men for their slave. ?
In such an hour she might find life again.
Try not to make complete beasts of our slaves!
If the city, to fill the pockets of criminals, must play procurer ■
and thus use those whom God has created for motherhood, let them
have music!
Yea, if they have the heart in the condition to which they have ’’
been brought by our cruelty, greed and indifference, while innocent
women sleep let them dance!
Anything, rather than force them to their unclean beds!
But think not that the city will long endure this “straining out r
the gnat and swallowing the camel.”
Bar the landlords from the city!
Even though their victims were no longer soothed and wooed
with music and amused with the dance, the crime of these men would
still disgrace the city, women would still be bought and sold.
Atlanta should and will close the Houses in our Midst. W’> j

Feat of Flat Book About the Worlctl
Attracting Attention to Its ■
Excellence. J
Isn’t an Atlas about the clumsiest
book you ever handled?
Memory takes you way back to your, i
school days when you -were first so • |
proud of the big brightly colored book! J
which you soon found to be a greater;
source of physical annoyance than all' ’J
of your other books combined.
It wouldn’t go into your school bag !
easily, and it certainly was so top 1
heavy that it would not stand upon its
thin edge, and when you placed it on'
its side it covered a great deal too much
space on your little desk.
As you grew older did you ever find J
an Atlas that did not have the same .it
annoying faults?
Even when you stowed it away on
your book shelf you had to find a shelf
deep enough to hold it and then prop |
it up with another book to keep it from "
toppling over. Taking it all in all, you v
never had a more bothersome book.
Progress has been made, however,
in atlases as well as skyscraper con
struction and there is now a book built'
upon such common sense lines that the!
first boy who received one cried, "She'
stands alone." i od
It balances easily and firmly upon
Its edges anil outdistances all compe- '
tition.
Tliis book which “stands alone" not
only physically but by reason of its 111
