i Dr. J. S. Lyons, newly elected moderator of the Presbyterian Church, South. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEATS. MONDAY, MAY 10, 101 HEADS THE SOUTHERN BRANCH OF CHURCH Boys’ and Girls’ Letters Show Their Pluck and Determination to Win the Handsome Prizes Offered. "Please send another book by return mail." is setting to be almost an hourly request in The 'Georgian and American office, where the let ters from boys and girls in the pony outfit contest are coming in by the bale. The ••book" referred to, of course, is the one used in recording subscriptions and votes. An out-of-the-State contestant writes, “I see I am ahead; believe me, I am going to stay right out in front,” and to make good his prom ise, he forwards a big batch of votes. "You bet your life my town wins a pony,” write another rather slangy young contestant. He, too, is making a great race, and his fel low townsmen are helping him, through friendship and local pride, which makes a strong combination in his favor. Another little girl from out in Georgia sends ia 7,500 votes with single word, ‘‘Hurrah!” followed by a big explosive-looking star. So it goes. Enthusiasm is increasing daily, the votes are piling at a great rate. Names and standing of contestants are below: the up district Number One.

SULLIVAN, OF NEW YORK, IS ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING OF THE SPEAKERS TO BE HERE SUNDAY. HEAR HIM. CABLE HALL, SUNDAY, 3 P. M Bishop Doane Dies Of Heart Disease NEW YORK, May V .—Following: an attack of illness of little more tnan 24 hours duration, Bishop William Croswell Doane, of the Episcopal Dio cese of Albany, N. Y., and one of the great leaders of the high Episco pal Church In this country, died early today in his apartments at the Hotel Manhattan of heart disease. He was 81 years of age. Members of the family .who had been summoned to the bedside last night said the body would be taken to Albany this after noon for burial. Bishop Doane came here Wednes day to attend a meeting of the Board of Missions of the Episcopal Church. On the following day he was taken ill and rapidly grew worse. Bishop Doane died at 12:30 o'clock. At the bedside were his four grand daughters, Misses Margaret and Elizabeth Gardner, Mrs. Mtvry Frazier and Mrs. Roy Pier. Bishop Doane was born in Boston and was consecrated Bishop o' Al bany in 1869. Steel Corporation, for Example, Is Doing a Lot of Work for Its Men. By B. c. FORBES. A Steel man handed me a cigar, and on glancing at the band I no ticed it read: "Boost for Safety” in the center and "Illinois Steel Co.” lengthwise. I began to ask ques tions and was told that these cigars, as well as articles of more value, were distributed as rewards among workmen for, amohg other things, preventing accidents, suggesting safe ty devices and otherwise contributing to the saving of life. * * * The annual carnage on American railroads, in American industry and in American coal and metal mines is a most deplorable blot on our national escutcheon—100 fatalities every time the sun rises and 6.000 accidents is the record for the country. • • * My curiosity aroused by the afore mentioned cigar, I went to the United States Steel Corporation’s offices to learn what this, the largest industrial organization in the land, was doing to reduce its share of the nation’s awful accident-roll and to improve the lot of its workers. * * * Here arc Home of the thingh I learned things that mag astonish you as much as they astonished me, for I had read so much about the cruel. heartless, stare-driving methods of the corporation that I had come to believe they must be true: 1. The Steel. Corporation has abolished the seven-day week among all its workmen. 2. Only blast furnaces are oper ated on Sunday, and they employ not more than two of every hundred em ployees. The men who work on Sun days are given a day off during the week. 3. Not more than one man in four works twelve hours a day. 4. The old plan of working cer tain men a double-shift in changing shifts each week has been eliminated so that no man works twenty-four hours on end. 5. The average wage has been in creased $200 a year since 1902: the average then was $716, to-day it is $912, adding upward of $40,000,000 to the payroll. 6. "SAFETY FIRST” is the cor poration’s inflexible motto, preached incessantly, practiced assiduously ! and encouraged in every way con ceivable. Next in orders are: Qual- , ity, Cost, Tonnage. 7. The sum of $4,000,000 has been spent in six years to increase safety. 8. The results have included a reduction of 43 per cent in serious and fatal accidents since 1906. On to-day’s force this means that there now escape some 2,500 employees I who would have fallen victims under the 1906 conditions. 9. Elazoned over every gate en tered by workmen is a "Safety First” motto: "Safety First” calendars are freely distributed; moving pic ture entertainments designed to in culcate carefulness, as well as to amuse, are given to workers, their wives and children: "Safety,” but tons (some of gold) are awarded men who perform meritorious serv ices in the cause of safety—these buttons, it is found, have a most salutary influence upon the wearers; and even pay envelopes each week have a safety-squib printed on them. Here is a sample: Indifference to the safety of others may, in the course of events, some time place your own life or that of a member of your family in danger. 10. A voluntary workmen’s com pensation plan was adopted on May 1, 1910, before any State in the Union had passed a Workmen's Compensation law, and the scale of relief printed in sixteen languages, so that every employee could know exactly what he would get for each kind of injury. 11. Fully 80 per cent of all casualty expenditures go direct to the men injured and their families— the percentage usually received by injured persons is less than half of this in most States, legal fees ab sorbing the lion's share as a rule. 12. The Corporation has 1,843 pen sioners, who received $358,780 last year, the average pension now being slightly over $20 per month. 13. No fewer than 32,248 employees are now stockholders, owning 125,848 shares. The annua! cost of this to the Corporation is $850,000. 14. Last year* $1,100,000 was spent on sanitation and welfare. Inci dentally, come fifty children’s play grounds have been provided, with ex perts to entertain the children. 15. At one plant alone, encouraged by offers of prizes, 5,150 vegetable and flower gardens were cultivated —72 per cent of all that could possi bly have been cultivated—and the produce was estimated as worth from $225,000 to $245,000. or say $45 for each amateur gardener.

Threatened to Get Another Witness. "While in Now York this week on a business trip." said a well-known Atlanta man, "I ran across an inci dent that was rather amusing. "A man who was apparently i lawyer was talking earnestly with a man at his side in an elevator In a downtown building in which there are many law offices. 1 heard the lawyer say: " ‘Remember, court opens at 10:30 o’clock. I want you to he in my nffl< e at 9 o’clock, and if you are not there I’ll get another witness.’” The Requisites Of a Song Hit. “Fortunes in song writing.” says an advertisement now appearing in magazines throughout the country, and many are Jured by it. But tjiose who have tried know the disappoint ments of the song writer striving o induce a publisher to look at his work. For those who would try here is a tip from one who has made goo'd: "If your song is to make a hit, the air must be hard to remember, though catchy and pleasing. If it can be whistled by anyone who hears it once or twice, it will not sell, and the publisher will reject it.” His Excuse Wes An Excellent One. "I was visiting a friend in New York not long ago,” said a promi nent real estate man. "and he took me around a good deal. He is a lawyer and frequently we visited the courts together. "One day a man who had been summoned for jury duty in the Su preme Court went up to the clerk- before the names of the talesmen were called and told why he thought he ought to be excused. When the judge mounted the bench the clerk said: ‘‘‘Your Honor. Mr. doesn’t think he ought to do jury duty on account of his business.’ “‘What’s his business?’ asked the court, gruffly. “ ‘He’s a faro bank dealer,’ said ih<v clerk. ‘ ‘Excused,’ said the court.” Atlanta Fights for Another Convention Though more than ten of the largest cities in the country are vjdding for the honor. Atlanta has a fine chance of capturing the next meeting of the Na tional Conference of City 1 .jnning Among the cities that have extended invitations are Atlanta, New Yoffe, St. Louis. Toronto, Detroit, Philadelphia, Louisville and Memphis Atlanta's official invitation was pre sented by Charles J. Haden. who bore credentials from Governor Brown. May or Woodward, the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and the Atlanta Convention Bureau. Mr. Haden is confident that Atlanta will be awarded the confer ence. necial Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, May 1 .— Following their orgy of bomb planting yesterday when fifteen infernal machines, some dead ly and some harmless, were scattered throughout England by militant suf fragettes, the arson squad took up the torch again to-day. A new residence at Cambridge which had just been built and was as yet untenanted, was burned by J women, the loss being estimated-*at $10,000. Suffrage literature was scattered! around the ruins. An envelope ad- 1 dressed to ‘‘the Dishonorable Premier Asquith and the People of England", said: "It is the duty of the militant suf fragettes to warn tlie people that out rages more serious than those gone! before are in store for the public of-1 ficials unless the justice of our de- j rnand for the ballot is recognized.” I King George is reported to have called Premier Asquith, Home Secre tary McKenna and First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill into conference, and ‘‘commanded" that steps be taken, no matter how dras tic, to end the reign of terror which pervades England. The King has strong feelings on the suffrage question and he deplores the wave of violence which ha,s swept ! the country at Intervals for the past' two years. The Foreign Office is said to have I sent a formal detailed demand to the ; French Foreign Office in Paris for the { extradition of Cristobal Pankhurst.: Her Paris home has been the rendez- ; vous of suffragette fugitives from j justice and at intervals officials of the Women's Social and Political i Union visited her there. To Sell Water by Meter. WAYCROSS.—At a meeting of: Council to be held next Tuesday the j first step of the plan to place water ! service in Waycross on a meter basis will be taken. An order for 100 me ters will be placed for immediate de- j livery. Church men and labor men will turn out In force tonight to hear a discussion of social service and labor questions at the Auditorium. This is the annual meeting on social service, usually conducted during the sessions of the Northern Presbyterian General Assembly, and this year it will be held under the auspices of the com bined assemblies. The Rev. Charles Stelzel, of New York. Superintendent of the Bureau of Social Service of the Northern As sembly, will preside and speak on “The Church and Social Unrest." Dr. James A. Macdonald, editor of the Toronto Globe, will discuss “The Re lation of the Christian Church to the Social and Industrial World," and Marion M. Jackson will tell how At lanta cleaned up its red light district. Negro melodies will be sung by 300 girls from Spellrqan Seminary . This promises to be one of the most unique occasions of the Assembly meetings. Last year, when the Northern Assembly met in Louisville, the social service meeting was at tended by 12,000 persons, and during a previous assembly in Kansas City 15,000 people were present. This was tlie largest meeting ever held in the history of the Presbyterian Church. Organized Labor in Atlanta has been heartily co-operating in working up the meeting to be held to-night, and many of the locals have appointed vice-presidents to sit upon the plat form. Bryan Is Scored by British Newspaper LONDON, May 1'.—The Standard, in commenting on the forthcoming cruise of the American fleet to the Mediterranean, says: "It is a very forcible hint to Eu rope that American diplomacy cm assert itself If it pleases with the only kind of backing our modern diplomatists really recognize. It is also a curious commentary of that effusive patronage and universal peace idea Secretary of State Bryan has been exhibiting."

ATLANTA 329 “WE HAVE A PAINT FOR EVERY USE” DOZIER & GAY PAINT CO. INVESTIGATED SEVERAL COL LEGES AND THEN ENTERED SOUTHERN BUSINES COLLEGES Mr. Buford Summers Is Secured a Good Posi tion With a Railroad Company by the South ern Shorthand and Business University. The literarv schools and colleges are closing for the summer months, and their pupils and teachers are now enrolling at the famous south ern Shorthand and Business Uni versity to add to their store of knou ledge a practical Business Ed ucation. . , Remember that the quickest way to obtain a position after leaving the literary schools is to take the Southern’s Course in Shorthand or Bookkeeping. No trouble then to secure a good job. Mr. J. Buford Summers, who has just launched upon a business ca reer. can testify to the above stated fact. While attending the South ern and preparing for a position, he observed the students almost daily going out into nice positions, and then his time came around. He had been a faithful student, an ener getic worker, and a mighty good fellow, so nothing could keep him from securing a good job. In a letter just received by the South ern from Mr. Summers, he says: "After investigating several oth er Business Colleges, I finally de cided upon a course in the South ern Shorthand and Business Uni versity, and I shall never regret my choice of a school. "The college has an excellent corps of instructors and its man agers, Messrs. Briscoe and Arnold, obtained me a splendid position aft er completing my j course. "I shall always look with pleas ure upon the time I spent at the a S. & B. U” If you want a position you’ll have to take a business course, sooner or later; then, why not now? Don’t postpone longer such an important matter. "If you have a diploma from the Southern Business University I will give you a position,” said a prom inent business man to a young fel low applying for a job. The Southern is an old school— been running 47 years; has a large faculty, teaches the best known sys tems of shorthand, bookkeeping, otc. J. BUFORD SUMMERS. Who now holds a good position after taking a course in the Southern Shorthand and Business University. Plenty of typewriters on which to practice—seventy-five; think of it! Its graduates send other students, and that tells the story of merit. They keep the school humping, what better recommendation could be desired? It looks businesslike at the South ern. Now Is the time to enter the Southern. Call, phone or write at once for catalog. Address A. C. Briscoe, Pres., or L. W. Arnold, Vice Pres., 10 West Mitchell Street, Atlanta, Ga. Prof. Thos. L.
