Red Cross Aids Will Throng
Streets Tomorrow Offering
Christmas Stamps.
Atlanta'* streets will be thronged to
morrow with hundreds of young wom
en, striving, through tl , sale of little,
penny ' 'hristmas Heals, to give the city
an open air school system to flg.it the
Inroads of the "white plague."
Among the shopping crowd, along the
,’urblng.s. in banks, hi office buildings
and stores these young women will vie
with the “pitch-grlfters" and the side
walk venders, who make the holiday
streets picturesque with their Jtm
■rackery.
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 tlieir insistent story of little tene
ment children lighting always with tiiis
hidden enemy.
Plan “Biggest Seal Day."
And tlie curbstone “ballyhoos" will
need all their fluent spiers to get the
ear of the passing throng before the
young women of Miss Woodberry’s
school and the Girls High school, 'Hold
ing aloft the red and green seals, have
driven their arguments home and
.-ashed them in good coin of the realm
for the colters of Red Cross Christmas I

are elaborate 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 500,-
000 seals look slim, it will be a record
I day in more than one respect.
I Recently catne the news from Wash
ington that Miss Alys Meyer, daughter
|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 in stores.
Young Atlanta women believe that
I Miss Meyer's record can be smashed,
.»nd if their enthusiasm for their cause
boa 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
I Ruth Walraven is a close second, witb
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 c-qual Wash
ington and that Atlanta girls are sales
women in a class by themselvet.
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 has sent
to headquarters for more. Suburban
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
son who complains that he- didn't know
about the seals.
I Stations have been established in the
postoflice and at Cole’s book store, and
others will be placed tomorrow at the
Terminal station and in the Kimball
and Piedmont hotels.

OLD SOLDIER EATS
DISH OF CIGAR SALAD
NEW YORK, Dee. 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 cigais into bits, poured
coffee over the crushed leaves and de
voured tlie dish with a relish. The
waiter informed tlie 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 A'ieksburg, and it is
part of my daily diet,' said the veteran
who showed a (1. A. R. button. He
was not arrested.
COURT VALUES HUSBAND.
KILLED BY CAR. AT $2,200
ROME. GA., Dee. 13.—Alleging that
a trolley car, recklessly driven, ran
over and killed her husband last Janu
ary, Mrs. Winfleld S. Lansdell sued the
Rome Railway and Eight Company for
slo,noo 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 ijio
torman was violating the city speed
ordinance when he ground Lansdell to
death.
GUILTY CONSCIENCE’gOADS
SLAYER INTO CONFESSION
HARRIMAN. TENN.. Dee. 13.—Worried
by a guilty conscience, which he claims
has given hint 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 bu.-lness 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 i
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, trees and flowers and ail manner
of living and green things as a. fight
ing chance against the Insidious plague.
