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
Thousands of Votes Have Already'
Been Received in Spirited
Race for Victory.
front the bin,gran, pastures
ef Tennessee, the twelve poniea fo-
the Georgian end American conteet-
ante are "eating their heads off" n
a big roomy pen at the Atlanta Stock
Tarda.
They are all waiting for owi ere -
and the owners will be chosen frora
among the entrant* 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 they
can grow up, as It were, with ths
children who win them.
Had the enthusiastic horsemen of
Tennessee been able to have their
way, they never would have left th.it
state.
J. Whiteaide, the expert sent by
the Georgian and American to make
the purchases, assembled the ponies,
after two weeks’ hard search In sev
en towns, In Nashville. The collec
tion was viewed with amazement.
"We didn’t know you could get
twelve young, sound ponle* togeth
er," said the horsemen. ‘‘What wul
you take for them?”
Bids Made For Them. <
Bid after bid was made for the
i.-.;. but Mr. Whiteside responded *u
every envious would-be buyer that
the ponies were destined for the boys
und girls of Atlanta, and that they
iv ere not for sale.
Ponies are getting scarce, even in
Biddle Tennessee, long the principal
1 reeding country for Shetland*,
/'.ires are advancing, and the con-
te.slant who wins any one of the
twelve ponies may consider his price
worth a round $250, to say nothing 'f
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
Look! Here Is One of
Handsome Prize Ponies
•Imiies Edwin Hiatt, al
though only two and a half
years old, can ride one of the
animals without the slightest
danger, for they are extreme
ly gentle and broken to ride
and drive.

fellow like that can manage one of
the Shetlands. surely you can.
Some of the contestants are roll
ing up interesting totals of votes 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 to the Georgian
and American to pay in advance, or
pay back subscriptions.
Further, you will be well received
in any home in Georgia when l he
explain that you are representing the
Georgian and American. Everyone is
talking about the great new' Sunday
paper which is appearing, and manv
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!
STANDING OF CONTESTANTS
IN RACE FOR PONY OUTFITS
SHOWS NUMEROUS CHANGES
Here t» an entrant In The Georgian and American pony contest
whose aspirations will meet with sympathy, even from his rivals.
Read a part of his mother’s letter:
“I am tn the contest for work, as I am anxious for my little
bey to earn a pony, as he 1b a delicate little lad, and I think it would
do him a world of good to own one of the ponies. It always has been
hia desire to own a horse. He is so enthusiastic over it that he goes
to sleep talking about it, wake, talking about it, and T behove dreams
'""ait you see from this the Joy that the winning of a pony outfit
Is going to bring into a dozen homes' 7
And why not to yours? .
The contest la under way; the rules are simple and absolutely
fair; the prizes are well worth the winning.
Below are presented the names of the contestants in the various
districts, together with their standing.
Look them over closely, and watch them day by day. You will see
the totals leap up by thousands at a time. If you are in the race,
watch vour competitors through this column, and inspire them with
wholesome respect for you by making a-strong showing yourself.
Already, considerable gains are shown by some of the contestants.
Totals of 5,000, 61000 and 10,000 are looming up. Prank Ison, of Col
lege Park, has more than 20,000 votes.
Misses Fannie May Cook and Florence Greenoe, in District No. 4,
still are running close together. Third and fourth contenders in that
district are not far behind.
Many who stand at 1,000. the start a nomination gives, are be
lieved to be ’’holding back.” This is not good policy, though some
seem to think it is.

‘It’s a Lonesome Job’
Opines the President
Less Fun in Being Head of Nation
Than Lecturing College Boys,
Say3 Woodrow Wilson.
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 less fun in running the affairs
of the nation than in bossing the
Now 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 littl>
outing has made a new man of me.
It gets tiresome sitting in the execu
tive office day after day. 1 wish l
* ould get away oftener and meet peo
ple in an unofficial way.”

COUPLE, 93 YEARS OLD, EAT
PIE THREE TIMES DAILY
WEST KENDALL, X. D., May 10.
The seventieth wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hall Bun,
each 93 years otd, was celebrated the
other day on a little tarm half a mtle
from the way station of West Ken
dall.
Mr. Burt was born February 28,
1820; Mrs. Burt, February 22, 1820.
They are both hale and hearty and in
possession of every faculty. They
have two sons, Erasmus Burt, of Kent,
and Charles F. Burt, who lives next
door and manages their farm of on< j
hundr *d 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 '<
■■I ng 1
est and quickest cure known to
science for all 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
bunions, sweaty, smelly-
and aching feet. A 25
cent box of Calocide is
said to be sufficient to
cure the worst feet. It
works through the pore?
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.
