Red Cross Aids Will Throng
Streets Tomorrow Offering
Christmas Stamps.
Atlanta’s streets will be thronged to
morrow with hundreds of young wom
en, striving, through th., sale of little
penny Christmas seals.'to give the city
an open air school system to fight the
Inroads of the "white plague."
Among th. -io.pping crowd, along lhe
curbings, in banks, in office buildings
ana stores these young women will vie
with the "pitch-fcrifters” and the side
walk venders, who make the holiday
streets picturesque with their Jim
crackery.
Against the vender's high-colored
tab- of the marvelous mechanism of a
jumping toy or recital of the imagined
beauties of a paper poinsettia, they will
pit their insistent story of little tene
ment children fighting always with this
hidden enemy.
Plan “Biggest Seal Day.”
And the curbstone "ballylioos” will
need all their fluent spiels to get the
car .a the passing throng before the
young Women of Miss Woodberry's
school and the Girls High school,"hold
ing aloft the red and gr< . n seals, have
driven their arguments home and
cashed them in good coin of the realm 1
for tm coffers of Red Cross t'hfistmas I
s'lii committee.

are elaborate and it is expected that
it will be the biggest seal day in At-
I lanta’s history. According to the young
women who have promised to make the
I remainder of Atlanta allotment of 500,-
| 000 seals look slim, It will be a record
i day In more than one respect.
| Recently came the news from Wash
| ington that Miss Alys Meyer, daughter
iof Secretary of the Navy Meyer, es
tablished an American record by sell
i ing 3,600 seals in a single day on the
streets and In stores.
Young Atlanta women believe that
Miss Meyer's record can be smashed,
..nd if their enthusiasm for their cause
be a criterion, tomorrow night will see
a new mark established.
Miss Jenkins After Record.
Miss Annie Lou Jenkins, who has
been a "sealer" since the crusade took
hold In Atlanta, already has set a mark
of 1,800 seals in three hours, and Alias
Ruth AV airaven is a close second, with
1.500 in the same time. Miss Jenkins
is sure she can more than double her
-ale in double the time, and Miss Wal
laien asks for but a chance to demon
strate that Atlanta can equal Wash
ington and that Atlanta girls are sules-
' women In a class by themselves.
i During the week Atlanta's full quota
of stamps, 500,000 of the 1,500,000 al
; loted to Georgia, has been placed and
| the Christmas seal committee lias sent
Ito headquarters for more. Suburban
I drug store, corner groceries and all
manner of places where the people may
be drawn have been supplied with the
| stamps. They are everywhere one turns
in quest of anything to buy, so there
will be little or no excuse for the per
l son who complains that ho didn't know
' about the seals.
Stations have been established in the '
I postoffice and at Cole's book store, and
others will be placed tomorrow at the
Terminal station and In the Kimball
and Piedmont hotels.
Cordon of Femininity.
From these stations the saleswomen
will work the downtown section, and It i
will be an elusive Individual who can |

Imiis BECK
Pathetic Story of Lake Trag
edy Is Told* in Captain's
Floating Message.
MILSVAVKEE, Dec. 13.—A bottle that
floated ashore at Sheboygan, Wi. v . today
, confirmed the story of the sinking of the
Christmas trvf» schooner Rouse Simmons.
The bottle bore a message showing a
record of the vessel’s fight against the
storm daj* by day. It was signed by
Captain Herman S. Schuenemann. The
Simmons had a crew of eighteen men.
The message was written on a torn
sheet of paper. It was very brief. It
read:
“Friday -Everybody good-bye. 1 guess
we axe all through. Sea washed off our
deckload on Thursday. I Juring the night
the small boat was washed off. ’ Leaking
badly.
“Engwakl and Steve fell overboard
Thursday.
“G<xl help us.
(Signed)
“HER MA N SC HUEN EM A NN. ”
The stopper of the bottle was a bit of
wood evidently whittled from the limb of
a Christinas tree.

OLD SOLDIER EATS
DISH OF CIGAR SALAD
•
NEW YORK. Dec. 13. —"Cigar salad”
is the latest dessert dish. Those who
attempt it risk police interference. At
a restaurant in Jersey City an elderly
man ordered a steak, coffee and two
black cigars. Having eaten the steak,
he broke the cigars into bits, poured
coffee over the crushed leaves and de
voured tlie dish with a relish. The
waiter informed the proprietor that he
had caught a lunatic red handed, and
the owner telephoned the police. “I ac
quired my taste for tobacco in the
trenches before Vicksburg, and it is
part of my daily diet,’ said the veteran,
who showed a G. A. R. button. He
was not arrested.
COURT VALUES HUSBAND.
KILLED BY CAR. AT $2,20C
ROME, GA., Dec. 13:—Alleging that
a trolley car, recklessly driven, ran
over and killed her husband last Janu
ary, Mrs. Winfield S. Lansdell sued the
Rome Railway and Light Company for
SIO,OOO and got a verdict for $2,200.
During the trial a witness testified
that the motorman of the car that ran
over Lansdell when accused by a su
perior officer of the company of run
ning too fast voluntarily resigned his
position. Evidence showed that the mo
torman was violating the city speed
ordinance when he ground Lansdell to
death.

SLAYER INTO CONFESSION
HARRIMAN, TENN., Dec. 13 -Worried
by a guilty conscience, which he claims
has given him no peace since last spring,
John Harmon, aged 20, of this place, con
fessed to officers that early in May of this
year he killed a negro.
Harmon was placed in jail pending an
investigation of his story.
that will girdle Atlanta's business sec
tion.
In the schools today’ will be a big
day. The work here has gone on all
week with marked success. One school
alone sold 10.000 seals and has asked
for more, for it is to the school chil
dren, especially in the poorer sections,
that the lesson of the seal Is brought
.home.
The Atlanta committee expects to
use the money raised by the sale of
seals as a nucleus of a fund for an
open air school system. Such a project
is on foot all over the state, wherever
the stamps are being sold.
This school system will mean much
to Atlanta and to Atlanta's children, it
< will mean playgroundsand sunshine for
. them, Hees and Howers and ail manner
I of living and given things as a tight-
I ing chance against the insidious plague.
