WEATHER CHIEF IS HERE TO SEE AIDS Plans discussed by weather experts i holding a convention today at the 1 Georgian T 1 Trace are expected to be of i materia 1 benefit to the farmers of the i United States. The experts, fourteen in number, are i thoroughly in earnest, and most of them have ideas which will prove most val uable if carried out. Every one of them is pushing his plan, too, and it now seems that there will be at least fourteen new ways to help the farmer | —and also the agricultural output—by the time the convention is over. Professor Willis L. Moore, head of the weather bureau of the United States, arrived in Atlanta at 11 o’clock today and went immediately to the ho tel where the convention is being held. This afternoon ho will address the i chiefs of prominent weather sub-sta tions throughout the Southern and Central states, who are attending the convention. Urge Use of Bulletins, Just what Professor Moore’s theme will be is not known, nor will he tell. He said that he expected to make a speech before the convention of repre sentatives of agricultural colleges be fore he left Atlanta, and it is probable that the question of co-operation be tween the weather bureau and farmer will be thoroughly discussed. The weather delegates this morning unanimously passed a resolution ask ing Professor Moore to return to the use of agricultural bulletins, which formerly were sent to farmers almost everywhere by the department. This was discontinued several years ago, but the experts believe that it will be of great assistance in the co-operative work of the department. Congressman Dudley M. Hughes made a short talk yesterday afternoon mi this question, and his remarks led to the passage of the resolution. Among the delegates attending the convention ate Professor Moore. Pro fessor Henry J. Cox, head of the Chi cago bureau; Professor .1. Warren Smith, of the Columbus bureau; Chief !•’. J. Walz, of Louisville, Ky.; Chief Dr. Isaac M.

If the officers of the Associated Char ities and the Atlanta Ad Men, who are trying to aid them, accomplish their desires, their Thanksgiving day will be a real one, with the satisfaction that comes, from helping the other fellow. For the charities are trying to raise $3,000 by Thanksgiving day toward the support of the charities, and that amount of money would go a long way in relieving the troubles of the poor. Coliege-bred girls who have left Greek and mathematics to learn how the other half lives and help bring the upper and lower halves closer together are the workers of the Atlanta chari ties, and they are putting their whole souls into their work. Charity workers have learned that a woman can find her way into the confidence of another woman far more readily than a man, and it is among women and children that, a large share of the work must be done. So the association has built up a working staff of young women who ire rapidly becoming expert sociolo gists. Miss Edith Thomson is a graduate of Agnes Scott and a post-graduate of Columbia. Miss Jeannette Why is a Vassar girl. Miss Lottie Ramspeck studied at Agnes Scott. Miss Minnie VanEpps is a graduate of the Atlanta High school. Mrs. Lola Becker came from a Western college, and Joseph C. Logan, secretary and principal worker of the organization, holds degrees fro.m Roanoke and Columbia. Just now the charities are at their busiest, for the cold weather is ap proaching, and with It the annual in crease in suffering among the poor. More than a hundred Ad Men will meet lor a supper next Monday night, when final arrangements will be made for the campaign. » This meeting was decided upon at a luncheon yesterday afternoon at which 50 Ad Men pledged active work. The headquarters of the Thanksgiving campaign at 122 Peach tree street are already busy with so licitors and committee members. At a meeting of the central commit tee of the Ad club in charge of the Thanksgiving week campaign in be half of the Associated Charities, held Wednesday morning at the Ad .Men’s it was decided that the campaign for funds on the three days preceding turkey day be undertaken by a number of teams, under capable leaders. According to the present out look-, the Ad club will have over one hundred workers in the field during the active campaign. The first big gun of the Ad Men’s campaign will be fired next Monday evening, when the workers will gather for a supper at 6 o’clock in Durand’s restaurant for the purpose of discuss ing the final plans for the canvass.
