Newspaper Page Text4 Brenau College Conservatory An Ideal College for the Ambitious American Girl The Spring Term Opens on January 21 With Most Flattering Prospects. The Fall Term. Which Is Practically Closed With the Christmas Holidays, Has Seen the Largest At tendance in the History of This Institution. Bv ANNA LIMNA. Before the students have b< gun ♦o leave for their homes to enjoy the Christmas holidays, prepain-' tlons art already under way for the beginning of the spring term, which opens on Tuesday. January 21. The fall term, which has draws to a practical close with the begin ning of the holiday season, lias been, decidedly, the best and most interesting In tie- history' of the famous college and eon.wrvatory. and the outlook for the spring term is even brighter. With an attend ance of over 500 students, drawn from thirty states and abroad. Brenau has presented a seem- of vivacious activity which lias never been surpassed. With very few’ ex ceptions, tht students enrolled for the fall term will continue through the spring course, and In addition :i number of reservations have been made for students who were pre vented from attending this fall. but. who will take up their school duties at the beginning of the spring term. There are still several desirable nooms and suites which are obtain able by those who are desirous of entering, but have not yet made their reservations. In order to care for lib- unusually heavy attendance this fall, additions to the already large college equipment were made which provide ample room for the students who are to matriculate for the spring to:. t. The Worth of Brenau. Tin wurth of Brenau wag never better exemplified than by the con stantly increasing attendance front term to term. Most colleges In crease from year to year, but Bre nau counts an Itiereuse each suc ceeding term. When It Is consid ered that Brenau. while deeply re ligious. Is a non-sectarian institu tion and has tlie backing and Inlln enceyof mi particular denomination, and can rely upon no endowment to Increase its attendance, its steady growth from term to term is a wonderful tribute to the true worth of the Institution. Brenau wins out anil continues to grow, develop and enlarge through the sheer force of the personality which it typifies, plus the climate which it enjoys winter and sumnyer. and the wonderful personnel otblts faculty, which Is constantly en larged and strengthened in order to keep ai reast of its ideals. Nes tling at t.;e foothills of the Blue Ridge, it Is sheltered from severe winters and Insured mild summers, an Ideal combination. The largest and moat progressive College for women in the South, eve y effort is exerted to have Brenau conform to the requirements of such a distinc tion. Sorority houses, the most modern adjunct to Independent col lege life fyr women, are In vogue at Brenau, where, under careful chaperonage and faculty supervi sion, they have found their best de. vclopment. Famous for Music. Long famous for its musical course. Brenau had Inaugurated the plan of allowing full credit for mu sical work taken, and as a result this feature has proven a most at tractive one and has enabled Bre nau to rightly boast of the finest rquslcal faculty in the South.

As a con cession to those who. desirous of attending college hut are unable to spare more than two years at this work, a specially prepared course, covering that period, has been ar ranged by the faculty and Is meet- | mg with a hearty reception. Brenau Is presided over by co pn-sklents, In. H. J. Pearce and 1 >r. T J. Simmons. Dr. Pearce has s< i n Brenau grow from thirty stu d'-n’s to its present high water mark of attendance numbering over 500. He has been repeatedly hon ored with degrees from various col leges here and has won his letters abroad. He is in charge of the ■ hair of psychology and his Pearce problem has been commented upon favorably by a number of the lead ing psychologists throughout the country. In. Simmons devotes Inueh of his time to his travelogue talks. He has recently girdled tile globe and the souvenirs he has brought back with him form the basis of one of the most Interesting and unique collections of curios to be found with any college In the country. Dr. and Mrs. Simmons arc frequently accompanied on these tours by former students of Brenau. It has ever been the Ideal of Bre nau to have the most efficient fac ulty obtainable. Graduates of Bre nau specialize abroad ami return to this college to give their alma mater the benefit of their teachings. To these are added the most effi cient instructors obtainable in their especial lines. Exceptional Courses Offered. As a result, the courses offered at Brenau In literature, music, art, or atory, normal courses and domestic science are the superior of any In the South, and the equal of any col lege 'anywhere. With a faculty re cruited from the best at home and abroad, and with a student body numbering over 500 from 30 states and abroad, a cosmopolitan eom raderie Is to be found at Brenau as nowhere else in the South. At Bre nau are combined all the comforts of home, with all of the diversions and advantages of the leading In stitutions of learning anywhere. With its wide acres of campus— over ninety in all -private park and lake (for skating by winter and canoeing by summer), every invita tion is extended for a wholesome, healthy out-its-door life which best fits the student for the trying du ties of study while In lecture halls. Gymnasium work, under faculty di rection. by physical instructors is com pulsory. A series of the best attractions, both from an artistic and educa tional standpoint, are provided for the benefit of the students through out the school year, appearing at the school chapel. In the milder months the students attend the football games, baseball games, tennis matches, encampments: go for mountain climbs and picnics—- all under faculty chaperonage. All in all Brenau is the Ideal in stitution for the healthy, ambitious American girl. Write for a copy of the BRENAU GIRI.. Address Box 11. PTIE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14. 1912. iPUREIiILKDEPOT IN ATLANTA H- Commerce Chamber Commit tee Considers Plan—Dr. S. A. Visanska Heads Move. j T.ie central bureau to supply pure |and wholesome milk for Atlanta babies. I forecast by The Georgian several weeks ago, Is about to become a reality. The < 'hamber of Commerce committee on i milk lias the matter unde considera tion and will make a report to the chamber In a short time. Dr. S. A. Visanska, chairman of the committee, has favored a milk depot for several years, but his attention was crystallized by a story In The Georgian a short time ago showing how certain milk dealers had boycotted a citizen, refusing to sell him milk for a sick baby because he had caused the arrest of a dairyman who had sold him the Impute milk which caused the child's I Illness. "The state spends thousands a year I to save hogs and cattle from infection," i said Dr Visanska. “Why not spend something on saving babies? The members of the chamber could put up the money to establish and operate such a depot with the sole Idea of sup plying pure milk for babies, without regard to making a profit." BAPTISTS TO DONATE TO HAPEVILLE ORPHANAGE Forty or fifty of the children of the Baptist orphanage at Hapeville will visit Atlanta tomorrow tn company I with the superintendent of the home. The Grant Park Baptists have planned to receive the orphans and the Second Baptist church will entertainthem dur ing Sunday school hour. The orphans will sing at the Second Baptist, and a special sum will be taken up for the benefit of the home. Each member of the congregation Is being urged to bring a sum representing one day's work. CHILDREN M" SYRUP OF FIGS Sweetens their stomachs and cleans the liver and waste clogged bowels without griping. Every mother Immediately realizes after giving her child delicious Syrup of Figs that this is the ideal laxative and physic for the children. Nothing else regulates the little one's stomach, liver and 30 feet of tender bowels so prompt ly. besides they dearly love its delight ful fig taste.

Irritable, feverish, stom ach sour, breath bad or your little one has stomach-ache, diarrhoea, sore throat, full of cold, tongue coated, give t: t.aspoonful of Syrup of Figs and in a few hours all the foul, constipated, dogged-up waste, undigested food and sour bile w ill gently move on and out of Its little bowels without nausea, grip ing or weakness, and you will surely have a well, happy and smiling child (gain shortly.

The National Guard of Georgia, which was greatly strengthened by va rious acts of the last legislature and I ..... which has given such a good ac count of itself of late, is intensely ■ interested in the ! bill now pending in congress look ing to pay for the membership thereof. The bin pro vides something less than $5 per month pay for the enlisted men in the national g u*t rd, with a somewhat higher rate for the offi cers. It is not the purpose of the bill to provide sufficient pay to make the service attractive by way of compensation in dollars and cents, but merely that a fund shall be distributed among the guardsmen large enough to reimburs* (item, at least to the extent of the present expense of the national guard, which falls largely upon the men Individually. If the members of the national guard are paid regularly, It is the opinion of high military authorities that they will take more interest in the service and feel that the government takes more in terest in them. In that event, in the time of military necessity, the state militia would be much more readily re sponsive to the nation’s call to arms, and capable of being placed In the field upon a better military basis. Those who have noted the progress of the pending bill in congress believe it will pass. The military authorities in Georgia are watching developments in Washington with optimistic eyes. The Georgia legislature has shown of late years a marked disposition to stand by the state's soldier boys, and if "Un cle Sam" will help along, it looks as If it might be good business all the way round. Says The Savannah News of yester day: If the members of the Georgia legislature were compelled to do what Governor Brown has done voluntarily, namely, draw no pay when funds in the treasury are low, we should have a speedy change for the better in the state's financial condition. It Is a fact—not made known by the governor, however, but through the state treasury department-—that during al) the time the state's funds were so low, last fall, just before and after the state was compelled to borrow In order to tide over and pay the school teach ers a small percentage of their overdue salaries, the governor did not draw any of his salary. All other state house officers were i paid, but the governor merely did not Issue a warrant for his own salary. For five months he served without drawing a cent from the treasury. And he hasn't paid himself off yet, moreover! State house officers generally- have noticed that since The Macon Tele graph's Johnnie Reese—“lkey"— start ed to accumulating a new home on the nickel-down-niekel-a-week plan he seemingly has assumed more or less aristocratic airs, and does not get down as early In the mornings as he used to. Time was when every state house of ficer could depend on, Johnnie to beat him to the capitol every morning—now he comes in anywhere from 11 to high noon, and isn't as sociable as he used to be, at that. The real reason why’ foe is so haughty nowadays, however, is because he has scraped together finally enough tobacco tags and coupons to get him a new wheelbarrow and coal shovel, both of which domestic implements he has needed sadly ever since his new fur nace was installed. One morning, to be sure, he was a little late getting down because the fire went out in the furnace over night, and he had to make it up all by himself next morning; but most of his lateness has been caused by chasing around among friends about town, collecting tags and coupons. Claude Payton, of Worth, the hand somest man in the last house of rep resentatives. the man whose antbrosial locks, eloquently gesturing along with his arms, hands, legs, feet and eyes when under full steam ahead oratori eally, is an Atlanta visitor today. Mr. Payton will not be a member of the next house—and that seems a pity, too, as he will be missed by everybody. At all times he was a conspicuous and When you have a bilious attack, give Chamberlain's Tablets a trial. They are excellent For sale by all dealers. (Advt.) M. GREER GOING OUT OF BUSINESS M.

Mr. Payton says he has forsaken the | sordid way of politics and will devote I himself hereafter to the more serious ! business of practicing law. It is un derstood that Mr. Payton might have ( returned to the next house for the mere asking—but he never could see his way clear to the asking. He say’s he will rest content upon his legislative record and laurels thus far established and obtained. Augusta is to have the honor and the very’ great pleasure of entertaining President Taft for a solid month after he leaves the white house. A committee of citizens from Augus ta went to Washington a few’ days ago and invited the president to be the • city's guest for a time,' immediately after the inauguration of his sue- ' cessor. “Come home and spend a while with the folks. Mr. President,” is the- way' the committee put it up to him. Mr. Taft is very fond of Augusta and Augusta people. He readily and cordially accepted the invitation—and on March 7 will go to Augusta for four or five weeks. While in Augusta he will be furnish ed a home to live in, an automobile to ride in, servants to wait on him—and he will not be bothered with unneces sary social stunts, at that. The Christmas Dinner. In spite of the fact that the word dyspepsia means literally bad cook, it will not be fair for many to lay the blarne on the cook if they begin the Christmas Dinner with little appetite and end It with distress or nausea. It may not be fair for any to do that —let us hope so for the sake of the cook! The disease dyspepsia indicates a bad stomach—that is. a weak stom ach—rathei- than a bad cook, and for a weak stomach there is nothing else equal to Hood's Sarsaparilla. It gives the .stomach vigor and tone, cures dys pepsia, creates appetite, and makes eat ing the pleasure It should be. (Advt.) “THERMOMETERS” The Xmas gift all can enjoy.

Rainey’s African Hunt at the Atlanta thea ter. it Is an attraction that will not only warrant the time of any man woman or child who goes to see it, but, in addition, will so abundantly compensate as to give a sense of rare and unique enjoyment. It is un uoubtedly the most marvelous moving picture ever staged. The noveltv ot the subject treated and the remarkable conditions under which the ■ pictures Qi jungie life were taken makes the exhibit one of tremendous I interest from a scientifically instructive standpoint. “This attraction held New York for nearly a year, and the best tribute uik. it was the fact that everybody who saw it sent some- Bl I body else. And that is why The Constitution is saying, this now.’’ ■ This Is what Clark Howell felt called upon to say. Thousands of At- k| lantans indorsed his view. Many failed to see the hunt.

PREYED UPON BY VICE TRUST, VICTIM CLAIMS NEW YORK, Dec. 14.—Subpenaa were issued today at he residence of District Attorney Whitman for a num- * ber of witnessess, chiefly women, who are expected to corroborate the state ments made by Mrs. Mary Goode be fore the aldermanic government inves -1 tigating committee, that 35,000 women of the underworld are preyed upon by a vice trust, dominated by police offi cers, that wrings at least $1,000,000 '• yearly from the unfortunates. Two collectors of graft, who acted as ; agents for the “system,” are reported as ready to make a full confession, naming the "higher ups” in the police department. Investigation made by the committee and by the district attorney since Mrs. Goode told her story several days ago • is said to have brought some amazing revelations. Further sensational ex posures are expected.
