AN. ATLANTA. GA.. SUNDAY. TUAV 11. 1013.
SUNDAY AMERICAN PRIZE PONIES ARE WAITING IN ATLANTA FOR THEIR YOUNG MASTERS
Children All Over Southland Working With Might to Win One of the Handsome Animals
EARLY START IS
Thousands of Votes Have Already
I Been Received in Spirited
Race for Victory.
Kresh from the bluegrass pastures
of Tennessee, the twelve ponies fo-
the Georgian and American contest
ant* ate 'eating their heads off” n
a bjg roomy pen at the Atlanta Stock
Y a rd ».
I hey are all waiting for o« ners—
and the ow .ers will be chosen from
among the entrants of the American
and Georgian.
Sorrels, blacks, bays and spotted
ponies all seem happy and conten
Apparently they like Atlanta, and will
be glad to make their homes here.
The oldest of the twelve is four and
none of the rest are over two so thoy
can grow up, as it were, with the
children who win them.
Had the enthusiastic horsemen of
Tennessee been able to have their
way, they never would have left that
state.
J. Whiteside, the expert sent by
the Georgian and American to make
the purchases, assembled the ponies,
after two weeks’ hard search in sev-
*n towrts, in Nashville. The collec*
tion was viewed with amazement.
“We didn't know you could gel
twelve young, sound ponies togeth
er.” said the horsemen. "What wid
you take for them?”
Bid* Made For Them.
Bid after bid was made for the
lot, but Mr. Whiteside responded •
/ every envious would-be buyer that
the ponies were destined for the boys
and girls of Atlanta, and that they
were not for sale.
Ponies are getting scarce, even in
Middle Tennessee, long the principal
breeding country for Shetland*
Prices are advancing, and the con
testant who wins any one of th3
'(welve ponies may consider his prize
w orth a round $250, to say nothing of
the cart and harness, which will be
of the best.
Are they gentle?
Well, James Edwin Hiatt, who Is
two and one-half years old, was play
ing about the Stock Yards where his
father works, all dressed up in an
Indian suit. He wanted a ride, and
he got it. A photographer was pres
ent and took his picture which the
American here reproduces. If a little
fellow like that can manage one of
the Shetlands. surely you can.
Some of the contestants are roll
ing up interesting totals of voles al
ready. If you have nothing to your
credit but the 1,000 votes credited to
you at your nomination, now is the
time to get busy.
Remember, an early start is worth
much. Turn to-day to page six of
the City Life section and learn just
what to do to get one of these po
nies.
Many of the other boys and girls
in your district know the same peo
ple you do. If you don't hurry, they
will see your friends before you do,
and will clinch their subscriptions
while you still are thinking about it.
Friends Save Coupons.
Get your friends to start saving
the coupons, good for five votes in
the Georgia and fifteen in the Amer
ican. They count up rapidly, you will
find.
You will discover, too. that it's easy
to get subscribers tq the Georgian
and American to pay in advance, or
pay back subscriptions.
Further, you will be well received
in any home in Georgia when 'he
explain that you are representing the
Georgian and American. Everyone is
talking about the great new Sunday
paper which is appearing, and many
will be glad to avail themselves of
the opportunity to subscribe who
wouldn’t think of it if they were not
asked. That is the way votes are to
be won.
Distribution of the books which are
used by the contestants is proceeding
rapidly, and in a short time, all con
testants should be supplied with the
"tools" they will need.
The ponies are here; the contest
is on; now for the race!
BOY FROM COLLEGE PARK
LEADING AMERICANS BIG
CONTEST FOR PRIZE PONIES
Frank Ison, of College Park, has the best start in The Georgian and
American's contest for the pony outfits. He had 18,535 votes yesterday.
Probably he has many more to-day.
Fannie Cook, 488 Pulliam Street, has 6.600. and Florence Greenoe,
387 Pulliam Street, has 6,045—there’s a close race in District No. 4.
In District No. 1 are George Rosser, 21 East Sixteenth Street, with
5.J45 votes, and Miss Margaret Lewis, 25 Baltimore Block, with 4.500
votes—another close race.
Then there is a considerable number with 2,000 and 3,000 votes.
All this may seem discouraging to the boy or girl who has simply
the original, which goes with the nomination It should not be, how
ever.
Look at Frank Ison’s lead, for instance. He has 18,535 votes. Take
off 1,000 for the nomination. That leaves 17,535. Five yearly subscrip
tions ;o The Georgian and American would yield 17.500. The 35 more
which make up the total may represent the coupons clipped from the
daily issues of the paper.
You can get five yearly subscriptions to The Georgian and American
in no time at ah, can’t you? Then you will have done as well as Frank
Ison. The only difference is that he. very wisely, has made a flying start.
We predicted yesterday that the votes polled by the contestants will
leap up by thousands at a clip. Watch and see if they do not. The
names of contestants and their standing will be published frequently
that they may know how they and their rivals are getting along.*

WASHINGTON, May 10.—The
President of the United States has
"a lonesome job," according to Wood-
row Wilson.
It has taken President Wilson just
two months to find out that there
is Ipss fun in running the affairs
of the nation than in bossing the
New Jersey Legislature or lecturing
a lot of college boys.
Secretary Tumulty says that on the
way back from Trenton last week
the President remarked: "This little
outing has made a new man of me.
It gets tiresome sitting in the execu
tive office day after day. T wish I
could got away oftener and meet peo
ple in an unofficial way.”
COUPLE, 93 YEARS OLD, EAT
PIE THREE TIMES DAILY
WEST KENDALL N. D„ May 10.—
The seventieth wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hall Burt,
each 93 years old, was celebrated the
other day on a ifttie ram half a mile
from the way station of West Ken
dall.
Air, Burt was horn February 28,
1820; Mrs. Burt’, P’ebruary 22, 1820.
They are both hale and hearty and in
possession of every faculty. They
have two son*. Erasmus Burt, of Kent,
and Charles F. Burt, who lives next
door and manages their farm of on ,j
hundred acres. Besides there are five
grandchildren and two-great-grand
children.
Mr. and Mrs. Burt atribute their
advanced ages to healthy outdoor ex
istence.
To Cure Corns. Callouses
Bunions and Aching Feet
The following is said to be the sur
est and quickest cure known to
science for ah foot ailments: “Dis
solve two tablespoonfuls of Calocide
compound in a basin of warm wa
ter. Soak the feet in this for fully
fifteen minutes, gently rubbing the
sore parts." The effect is really
wonderful. All soreness
goes instantly; the feet
„—_ feel delightful. Corns
and callouses can be |
peeled right off. It gives ■
immediate relief for sore 1
bunions, sweaty, smelly '
and ach'ng feet. A 26 !
cent box of Calocide is 1
said to be sufficient to 1
cure the worst feet. It !
works through the pores
and removes the cause of the trouble.
Don’t waste time on uncertain reme
dies Any druggist has Calocide com
pound in stock or he can get it in a
few hours from his wholesale house.
