MAY 21. 1D1D ATLANTA ii FINE Girl Socialist for Trial Marriage EXAMPLE FOR ‘Would Improve the Human Race’ OTHERS +•* 4* ••5* *r •*!* v«v She’sLongfellow’sGranddaughter Thp Chattanooga News Tells Why This City Is Going Ahead So Rapidly. The following editorial from the Ghattanooga News in worth rending and studying carefully: (From the Chattanooga Newt.) A FINE EXAMPLE. The city within 150 miles of Chattanooga, which la probably growing faater than any of our neighbors, is Atlanta. Persons who consider moving to this sec tion of the South will, no doubt, compare Chattanooga with At lanta. Chattanooga’? growth has been splendidly satisfactory dtir Ing tha past two years, but If It ran be Increased In any wav, it behooves the citizens of Chatta nooga to take the staps neoessa ry to make our community the favorite with desirable new cit 1 - sens. So it is well for us to analyze conditions frankly. Suppose, for example, some de sirable family, reared In a Chris tian community, contemplated re moval to a Central Southern City. What, special inducements rouid Chattanooga give over Atlanta ? We might cite a good many. In fact, in only two respects do we think that city, more than Chat tanooga. would make a special appeal to a family of the above description. It is proper to speak of these The first is, that Atlanta has solved the problem of law en- feroement under prohibition bet ter than any other Southern city. Very little strong drink is sold m Atlanta. The law is evaded to a greater extent as to lighter drinks, but the number of saloons is limited and by reason of the prohibition of the sale of whisky, drunkenness is reduced to a min imum. There is a fine spirit exhibited in Atlanta for law enforcement. The law is accepted as final and there is no conspiracy against it. The newspapers do not encour- *ge its violation. This sentiment for law observance is a splendid pedestal upon which to erect a municipal edifice. Nor has law enforcement mili tated against business progress. There is no greater fallacy than that a wide-open town aids growth. .Morality, In rommuni ty a* well as individual, not on ly is right, hut also Ik profitable. Another triumph of Atlanta Is In reducing the so-called soda! evil to a minimum. Two young men belonging to what I* called the Men and Religion Forward Movement, one a lawyer, the oth er a business man of wealth, are largely responsible for this re form. Space was taken In the newspapers and day after day ad vertisements were written by the lawyer and published, urging the abolition of the restricted district. Men of wealth, members of churches, prominent in church and public affairs, camelled their leases and demanded possession of their premises, being used for immoral purposes. The wealthy young business man expressed the curious doctrine that, “business is a ministry and that a man should serve the world in his huslness.” A home was provided for the women who expressed a desire to reform and more than 200 ware thus taken care of. Conditions In Atlanta are now- cleaner than In any other American city. It is said. The example set by our sister- city, ought to appeal to us, both from the standpoint of placing Chattanooga on an equality with its competitive city In respect to the correction of these evils and also because such reforms they might have In the race for growth and population be of tre mendous worth to this communi ty outside of any effect it might have in the race for growth and population and business. It took two men of courage In Atlanta to do these big things— one man of courage in Chatta nooga i ould do much; a hundred men of courage would certainly lead the way to a new era. Surgeons to Attend Confederate Reunion An Invitation to all Confederate sur geons. assistant surgeons, hospital stewards and all sons of Confederate surgeon-, to attend the annual meet ing of the medical officers of the Con federate army and navy, at the ('on- federate reunion at Chattanooga, Tenn., May 27, 28. 29. has been Issued at the ^request of Dr. A A.

Miss Delia Dana Has Advanced Opinions on Matrimony, Eugenics and Evolution. BOSTON. May 21. Trial marriages as a means of improving the race were vigorously advocated to-day by Miss Delia TV Dana, granddaughter of the poet Longfellow, and sister of Ed mund Trowbridge Dana, who mar ried Jessie Holiday, the English por trait painter with a ceremony of his own devising. I ndeterred by the fact that Ed mund has been a trolley car conduct or while his bride lived in England, Miss Dana is busy revising slightly the ceremony her brother wrote. S'w will use it herself when she weds, in June. Robert H. Hutchinson, a fellow Socialist and a post-graduate stu dent at Harvard. Miss Dana is certain that th ir marriage will not he a trial one. but as she believes that you never can tell about anything, she thinks that the trial is the only solution of the problem of w hv-do-men-quarr !- w ith-their-wives, or whv’s-the-hus- band-nagged-out-of - home-and - fire side. The Dana family service in its latest revised and amended form ia: “I. Delia F. Dana. take you, Rob ert H. Hutchinson, as my lawful hus band. and promise faithfully to fulfill toward you all the obligations aris ing from the married state, and 1 hope to be true comrade and help mate; us a symbol thereof. I give you this ring." \fter which HE repeats a similar formula, slipping on HER finger a gold ring in contradistinction to the silver one SHE uses. “We shall exchange no set vows," an id the poet’s granddaughter, “hut we shall try to live fully up to the requirements of those we do ex change. Marriage is a calling which should be studied just as one would any calling, such as nursing, for ex ample. It is realty a definite work, but usually few women are prepared for it. Miss Dana, like some other in vestigators in the field, says that she sees the passing of the idle rich. She believes in socialism, she says, be cause she sees in it better w ages and the general application of the obli gation to work.

On December 1, 1906, we landed In Atlanta with two or three months prov isions (came from the country) r and not more than $20 in money. Went to work for $19 per week, but was raised soon. That first year was a blue one. Sickness of family was followed by a sped of typhoid fever by myself, so I closed the year $40 behind where I began By April 15. 190?. this was cleared up. Then the greatest trouble that confronted me was those monthly rent receipts with tiie $13 on the corners. They looked mighty unlucky tome. About that time a real estate firm advertised very’ extensively some lots of a subdivision which they had made at $200 per lot—$2 dow n and $2 per week. I went and looked at them at once and offered $4 cash and $3 per week for two lots, which they accepted. Getting a brother to go my security. I managed to borrow $300 with that brother’s aid. I hulled in three rooms and moved in Then work began in earnest; by sunlight and lamplight I was at it (having some knowledge of carpenter work). In one year’s time I had them finished, and lots were half paid for. Relng crowded in so small a house and it not in keeping with the community, I wasn't content to stop there So Mcent hack to this real estate firm and asked them to loan me 1200 to build more house. They treated mo as nice as they did in the flrst trade. , So I went to work and built three more rooms, which gives me a house of six rooms now finished. Work was practically all done by mys»lf at odd times. And I have a home worth $2,300. and what I owe will not exceed $209. But It took work.' work, work! C.
