Red Cross Aids Will Throng
Streets Tomorrow Offering
Christmas Stamps.
Atlanta’H streets ivill be throng.-<1 to
morrow with hunflreds of young wom
en, striving, through th»- sale of little
penny I 'liristrnas S'-n.'s. to give the citj
an open air school sy -.m to fight the
Inroads of the “white T'lague."
Among the shopping crowd, along the
curbings, in hanks, in office buildings ,
and stores these young women will vie
with the "p!t‘ h g’ift'-rs" anil the side
walk vend th, who make the holiday
streets picturesque with their Jlm
crackery.
Against the vender's high-colored
tale 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 tills
hidden enemy.
Plan ‘Biggest Seal Day.”
And the curbstone "ballyhoos” will
need all their fluent splets to get the
ear of the passing throng before the
young women of Miss Woodberry's
selioo! and the Girls High school, hold
ing aloft tin- red and green seals, have
driven tin Ir arguments home and
cashed them in good coin of the realm
for the coffers of Red Cross Christmas
seal committee.
The committee's plans for tomorrow

are elaborale and it is expected that
it will be the biggest seal day in At
lanta's history. According to the young
women who have promised to make the
remainder of Atlanta allotment of 600,-
000 seals look slim, it will be a record
day in more than one respect.
I Recently eatne the news from Wasli
' ington that Miss Alys Meyer, daughter
j of Secretary of the Navy Meyer, es
tablished an American record by sell
ing 3,600 seals in a single day on the
streets and tn stores.
Young Atlanta women believe that
i 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 Miss
Ruth Walraven is a close second, with
1,500 in the same time. Miss Jenkins i
is sure she can more than double her
sale in double the time, and Miss Wal
| raven asks for but a chance to demon
strate that Atlanta can equal Wash
ington and that Atlanta girls are sales
women in a class by themselves.
During the week Atlanta's full quota
of stamps, 600,000 of the 1.500.000 al
loted to Georgia, lias been placed and
the Christmas seal committee has sent
to headquarters for more. Suburban
drag Store, comer groceries and all
manner of places where the people ma>
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
son who complains that he didn't know
about the seals.
Stations have been established in the
postottie. and at Cole's book store, and
others will be placet! tomorrow at the
Terminal station and In the Kimball
and Piedmont hotels.
Cordon of Femininity.
From th' Se stations the sal- swomen

OLD SOLDIER EATS
DISH OF CIGAR SALAD
NEV\ YORK, Dee. 13.—-" Cigar suiiul '
is tlie 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 $2,200
ROME. GA.. Dec. 13. —Alleging that
a trolley car, recktessly driven, ran
over and killed her husband last Janu- !
ary, Mrs. Winfield S. Dansdoll sued tiie
Rome Railway and Light < 'ompanj tor
stO,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 tod fast voluntarily resigned his
position. Evidence showed that the ino
torman was violating the city speed
ordinance when he ground Lansdell to
death.

SLAYER INTO CONFESSION
HARRIMAN. TENN.. Dee. 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 be 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 j
home.
Th- Atlanta committee expects tn ■
use the money raised by the sale of
seals as a nucleus of a fund for an
open ait 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 playgrounds and sunshine for
' tli> ni. trees and flowers and all manner
of living and green things as a tight-
I ing chance against the insidious plague.
