ACTOR, WHITE SLAVER, TO ANSWER THEFT CHARGES ‘ Practical Christianity is great er than tlie mere theory. • It is better to help others to help themselves than to extend them mere charity. "Our work knows no denomi nations. We help the members of every faith. "Opportunities are always open to tiie well equipped women in ttie business world. "inexperienced girls from the country think Atlanta has a good position waiting for them each to step into."—Mrs. R. D. Crusoe. Four years ago the Central Presby terian Church Adult Woman's Bible Class came face to face with the prob lem of finding employment for oge or Its number. A girl just in from the country had to have work, and have it right away. There were several women in the class who held respon sible positions in the business world of Atlanta, and by combining their ef forts they obtained a place for the girl within a day. % To-day the same class, somewhat larger, is finding work for men arid women and boys and girls every week, and no one, no matter of what fai\i or or.*ed phe may be, Is turned away without being helped to find work. "Practical Christianity, not merely the theory of it, is our aim." said Mrs. R. I). Crusoe, leader of the class, in discussing the work to-day. Their Work "Just Grew.” ‘ We feel that we can do more real good by teaching others to help them selves than in any other way. Like Topsy, our work “just grew." When tlie first cape was forced upon us we immediately realized there was a great field in front of us, and by the united effort of the whole class we have managed to fill most of the de mands made upon us. “We are fortunate in having 85 business women. They are all of them in responsible places, and naturally keep in touch with the openings in their different establishments. Each Sunday just before the class work begins I ask the girls what positions they know of. Each members Speaks up. and there is never a Sunday passes that there is not an oppor tunity opened up for pome girl. The girls also tell of the people they know that want and need places. Work Found for Men. "At first our work was confined al most entirely to women, but now we are helping all. We have found work for men. Boys and girls who wanted positions have been aided. We have followed up each case, and where we found chances for advancement we have taken persons from one situa tion to another. "Right to-day we have five applica tions that we wish to fill. One ip a woman with two children, who just has to have work, and 1 hope we will be able to find something for her to day. "The great difficulty is to find wom en that are properly equipped to take the places that we have to offer. Equipped women are in constant de mand. So many girls come in here from the country with no idea of the dangers and difficulties ahead -»f them. They think that in Atlanta they will have no difficulty in finding work. They do not know whether they will be salesgirls, filing clerks or stenographers. When they come, the place?* are open, but they can not fill them. Scholarships Are Given. "This problem has sflso been at tacked by the class. Each year one business scholarship is * given some woman, and the money for two others is loaned to deserving women. Out of tlie employment work other branehe have grown. The city relief work, for instance, which aids many peoi' every year, and is often useful and absolutely necessaryyin caring for th women seeking work. "Five members of the class. Miss Dallas Dumas, Miss Irene O’Donnell, Mips Lula Fowler, Miss Tfrart and Miss Fuller, all of them successful business women, compose the active committee of the employment bureau feature, but every member of the class unites in helping and encouraging, the work." The present officers of the class are: Mrs. W. U. Cotton, president: Mrs. M. M. Grlnnell and M*ps Cora Bruce, vice presidents; Miss Henrietta Welsh, recording secretary; Miss Hel en Greenlea, corresponding secretary ; Miss Labincia Davidson, treasurer, and Miss Claude Morgan. Chief Justice White Holds Sway in Car E MEET ftTTONCEY' In Atlanta Office Building Col lege Chums Worked Next Door and Neither NKnew. The story of the career of Mitchell E. Sampson, wealthy Tampa (Fla.) man and convicted white slaver, who is charged with having lured May Donaldson, a chorus girl, to Florida and then deserting her and her child, will be told this afternoon, when he will be arraigned in Superior Court on bail trover proceedings instituted by Miss Donaldson. The chorus girl asserts that Sampson, before de serting her. took a diamond ring valued at $500 and refused to return It.

April 15.—“Jack" Hall. young, well-known aviator, was shot lo death in his apartments in Pic cadilly lo-riav. A woman who was 11: the flat at the time j^jts arrested. WASHINGTON, April 15.—Chief Justice White of the U. S. Supreme Court gave seats to three women on a^street car. It was this -way: The Chief Justice and Justice Van- devanter sat talking when several women got on the car. There were no seats for them. The Chief Justice, first to notice the fact, arose politely and tendered his seat. Justice Van- devanter did the same. Two of the women sat down. There was still some room left and a third woman sat down. She smiled. The other passengers smiled. So did the Chief Justice, as his huge form swayed back and forth. Thomas B. Akin, once of Syracuse, N. Y., sat in tlie grandstand at Ponce DeLeon Park and nearly burst hi' collar button when one of the Crack ers slammed out a three-bagger. In his excitement Mr. Akin smashed the spring derby worn by the gentleman In the seat ahead. When that irate individual turned round to start some thing there was a double-barreled surprise. 1 “Why, Tommie Akin, you old horse thief! Where’d you come from?” “Darned if it isn't Walt Burns of Joplin! Haven't seen you since old Harvard days. What are you doing here?” “In business here. Bpoii here three years." "The dickens you say! Been in At lanta four years myself. Where d’ye keep yourself?” “Hard at work!” “Same here!" In Same Building. Then the two friends talked ovqr campus days, climbed on board tlie same trolley and came back to town, agreeing to dine together that night. They got off at the same corner. “Got to go up to my office a minute and look over the late mail," said Akin. "Me, too,” said Burns. “I'm in this building, too." “Out at the fourteenth floor," they called to the elevator man simul taneously. Then Burns unlocked ’.he door of No. 1 426, on which the sign of the Baileywlck Bottled Bunk Com pany was blazoned. Mr. Akin drew out the key of No. 1 444. just across the hall, where the Empire Egg Erad- icator Corporation held forth. Then 'hey iooked at each other. "Do you mean to tell me you—" they both bpgan at once. “Yes, fight across the hall—” thev both answered in chorus. All of which is a fake as to names and numbers, but true a dozen times a year as to essentials. j£he office buildings of Atlanta are about as so ciable as two rival book agents on the trail of the same customer. They carry an unwritten label, “For Busi ness Only." Hidden Behind Corporation Names. Seventy per cent of the business men in Atlanta are bidden under the names of the corporations they serve Tlie dotys of the offices are always closed, and none but customers know that John Smith is "the works" In the branch office of the Great Northern Napkin and Notion Company. "Things, like that happen every day." said the manager of one of the bnildings. "A couple of friends meet In an elevator and find they’ve been next door neighbors for a year with out either knowing it. "Why. the man who had got away with a million from a bank couldn't hide In a safer place than a private office under a corporation name. No body would ever know he was there unless he put his own name on the door." CLERGYMAN, DEFENDANT, WINS ALIENATION SUIT BOSTON, April 15.—Chester A. Boynton lost in his $25,000 nuit against Rev. William B Ayers, of the Park and Downs Congregational Church at Wollaston, for alleged alienation of Mrs. Boynton's aflfec- I tions. I After deliberating 43 minutes the | iur> reported a verdict this aft* r- I noon in favor of the young preacher. FORMER CITY CLERK GETS 4 YEARS AT CARROLLTON CARROLLTON, GA., April 15. Emmett Smith, former City (fierk and City Attorney here, pleaded guilt> yesterday afternoon to the charge of embezzling $6,000. He was sentenced to four years at hard labor. Smith is a member of one of the most prominent families in Carroll County, and at the time the shortage was discovered it created intense ex citement. In entering his plea Smith ma.de an eloquent end stirring address to the jury. Smith was indicted by the (Jta^ul Jury last Saturday. m Men and Religion Bulletin No. 54 uspicions love of Money Root-” ---/ Timothy, 6:10. ‘‘Your riches— ‘‘Your gold and your silver— ‘‘You have laid up your treasure— ‘‘Behold the hire of the laborers, which is of you kept back by fraud crieth out; and the cries, of them that reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabbaoth. ‘‘You have lived delicately and taken your pleasure; you have nourished your hearts in a day of slaughter. ‘‘You have condemned, you have killed the righteous one; he doth not resist you.” You, in your greed, can crucify the Lord afresh. James makes it clear. Have you? Will you? ‘‘He doth not re sist.” In Atlanta is a factory. Women work in it ten hours a day. A fire would be a holocaust. There is no fire escape. Here one woman worked four days on twelve dozen shirts. She received seventy-eight cents. Another sewed seven dozen garments; on account of wide stitching, she had to rip and resew them. For the lot she was paid fifty cents. OUR NEW ALMSHOUSE IS BEAUTI FUL; fine brick fireplaces are in its rooms. An old woman built her fire on the floor in the center of the room. She did not know what to do with her lux urious hearth. If she had ever known, our civilization had blotted out the knowledge. In one of our alleys is a hovel. A workingwoman calls it “home.” Her daughter, seeking death, went from it to the railway tracks. She, too, is to be a mother. Men and women say, ‘‘She’s crazy. She cries. She tries to die.” The physician says, ‘‘Not so. She’s not in sane. She .just doesn’t care whether she lives or dies.” Not insane? Don’t care? 0 men, consider that! 0, CHRIST, Thou who died for her and us, didst Thou hear? How long, Lord, wilt Thou endure? In the ‘‘Song of the Shirt” one sang: ‘‘But why do I talk of death, ‘‘That phantom of grisjy bone? ‘‘I hardly fear his terrible shape, “It .seems so like my own— “It seems so like my own, “Because of the fasts I keep.” 0, G-od! that bread should be so dear, AND FLESH and blood so cheap. “Work—Work — Work! My labor never flags. And what are its wages? A bed of straw, A crust of bread and rags; A shattered roof and this naked floor, A table, a broken chair, And a wall so blank, my shadow I thank For sometimes falling there!” “For man there was not found a help-meet for him. “And the Lord God made He a woman and brought her unto the.man.” God forgive you? What have you done with your “help meet?” One tries to keep her a slave for sale in a brothel. This one enslaves her in a factory. Others hold her overtime at less than a liv ing wage at switchboards and in telegraph offices. Another works her thus in shop and store. GOD FASHIONED her shoulders soft and round that a baby’s head might nestle thereon. These, ere they feel the tiny weight, you would bruise with your brutal heel? YOU WOULD USE her flesh as a rung in your lad <Jer to climb—? Whither? To money—money! She shall not be crushed into the pit. In Christ's name she shall stand. In His name, you will help her. A living wage you will pay her. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD MOVEMENT. ~
