MOM HIT 8? It BAN W TO REFORM Fifteen Have Been Placed in Good Homes and Positions by Crusaders. a Nearly fifty of the fornier tenants of the houses closed by order of Police Chief Beavers have announced their in tention of reforming and have appealed to Chief Beavers and leaders in the Men and Religion Forward Movement for positions in which they may make an honest living. Os this number fifteen already have been placed in good homes and posi tions by the Men and Religion leaders, W ho have direct supervision of this feature of the vice war. The remainder of the women, about thirty in number, are being cared for in the Florence Crlttenton Home until positions can be found for them. Marion .Tackson and John Eagan, of the Men arid Religion Forward Move ment, are actively at work supplying E ood homes and good positions for all of them. Chief Pleased With Results. Chief Beavers is receiving calls every day from women who declare they have rencnmced "the old life” and desire to start out anew and live respectable. The chief promptly turns these women over to the Men and Religion workers, who give them shelter and care for them. Chief Beavers is greatly pleased with the results thus far obtained in his orusade, and says the movement al -1 ready is assured pf success. This not only means the saving of many young girls and young men from destruction tn the future, but it also means the reformation and eajvation of many women who already had fallen Into the meshes of vice,” he said. "These places erf vice can be closed tn Chicago or any other city just the Mie as in Atlanta.” he added, refer ring to the present crusade in that city. "They are all operated in direct viola tion of law, ®rkl only one thing is nec essary—enforce the law. Csn Be Enforced in Chicago. "Tt will be a big problem in (Jhicago, nf course, but they have a big police force there, sufficient to cope with the situation, and there's no reason why the law can’t be enforced.” By appearing in police court today, 'nstead of putting up cash collateral, ieo Henderson, one of the two motion picture theater "actresses” arrested --arly yesterday, saved $10.75. When It was shown that she was on the -treet with an escort and was creating no disorder, Recorder Broyles dis missed the case. Her companion, Helen Jones, and •heir two young men escorts, however had deposited 810.75 collateral, and a hen they failed to show up in court I’esterday this was forfeited. Ihe quartet was arrested just after having a downtown club.

Dan Carey, manager of parks and zoological expert of Atlanta, is back ftotn a tour of Eastern animal markets with an ex press car full of new pets. Mr. Carey spent Ji.120 of the ani mal fund in picking up new specimens for the zoo. and he got big bargains at that. He struck lhe market when ani mals were extra cheap, for some rea son, and thinks ho was in unusual luck. The most important purchase was a female bison, seven years old. She will become the mate of the bull bison al ready in the park. They are the oniv two in the South except for a herd in Mississippi. The Southeast was the original range of the bison, known-in the old geographies as the American buffalo, which it isn’t, and Mr. Carey believes they should thrive well here. Japanese Deer Interesting. A herd of four Japanese sika deer, one male and three of his wives, was purchased in New York. They are lit tle fellows, about 33 inches high, the buck having rather ornamental horns and all of them displaying a fctishy white tail which spreads like a fan. They are very like the antelope and are said to multiply rapidly. Mr. Ca rey expects this tendency toward sim ple mathematics to produce quite a herd in a year or two. Two Bennett kangaroos are in the new arrivals, one “old man" and his squaw. There is a giant red kangaroo in the park now, but these belong to another of the 57 ♦arieties which abound and bounce in the Australian bush. They are gray and rather small. A male black buck of the antelope family arrived with the other animals and a female is coming later. They are from India, where English army offi cers and native rajahs chase them like foxes and sometimes catch them. The buck has long horns, twisted like a loaf of French bread. They should be among the park favorites. Their sum mer coats of brown are being worn now, but soon they will don coal black coats, with snow white shirt frontsand trousers. Ant Eaters Dine on Insects. A pair of giant ant eaters are in tbe collection also—queer, long-nosed beasts with backs like a thatched roof. They come from Mexico and Central America and ants are only a part of their diet. They will eat any old insect and Mr. Carey expects to raise them on a diet of stale bread and insects in quantity not being quoted by the feed nouses. Two lemurs are on the list, too. The lemur is the missing link between monkey and fox, and are the real sports of the zoo family. They wear whis kers which make them look like the Irish comedian in a 30-cent melodrama and are both foxy and full pf monkey shines. One of the new pair is tan col ored with a set of white sidewhiskers, and the other is black with a tan fringe on his physiognomy. Gentlemen who have Indulged in the merry sport of badger-pulling will be THE MENTER co - Splendid Showing fpflpF'’ Coats and Suits f' I1 W- r * ces sls to $35 I / | lUn • Fall styles are now being worn.

THE MENTER CO. 713 Whitehall Street I’HE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AM) NEWS.FRIDAY. OCTOBER 4. m?. interested in learning there is a real badger— not the kind they remember — in the zoo. He is a splendid specimen ami is-guaranteed to whip any bull dog which can make ring weight. He will not be a pleasant pet for the chil dren. being given to chewing off fingers carelessly placed within his reach. I’wo Canadian wolves, the kind the nature fakers write books about, are tn the list. They are mated, both tall as a table and unusually fine specimens. One is tan, the other pure black, and their Voices are in excellent condition, as folk within a few blocks of the park doubtless will learn. Listen! Mr. Carey brought back a couple of storks. He insists they are not the kind responsible for Atlanta’s rapid increase in population and hopes that nobody will blame them for any thing that happens. They are the well known jatibou stork from South Africa, and they have two legs each, while the ordinary stork shown in the pictures Unlike many others, there is no health-destroying ingredient in It contains only pure, wholesome and nutritious body-building ingredients that sustain life, —and that give to foods a most delicious flavor. Insist on having it. All good Grocer* sell it or will get it for yea. A Natural Pride The next thing to being able to say “I made it myself" is “It’s made right at home." That’s one reason why hundreds of Atlanta's best citizens prefer Red Seal Shoes (made in Atlanta). You'll know the other reason when you try mi a pair. We have your favorite style. CRAIG’S 93 Peachtree St. with a baby in a basket hanging from his bill has only one leg. as you may see by reference to the comic papers And monkeys! Os course! An even two dozen of them, lively little rhesus monks from the Indian Himalayas. For several generations they have been considered sacred by the natives and naturally they are accustomed to doing as they please without fear of interfei - erne. That makes them sassy and dev ilish. The new arrivals make 36 ten ants in the monkey house, which soon must be enlarged. Mr. Carey had $1,233 to spend for animals on this trip. There was $1,225 in the fund, of which $255 already had been spent, and the Georgia Railway and Power Company added S2OO to this. V. H. Kriegshaber raised $7 each from nine citizens, for the purchase of mon keys to bear tbe names of the donors. The amount spent was $1,120. Atlanta now has as fine a zoo as any city in the country, excepting New York. Washington and Cincinnati. Its houses and grounds ate not elaborate or extensive, but its collection of animals is unusually good.
