NURSES’ ASSOCIATION BE
GINS FOUNDING HOME.
TTHB Atlanta Registered Njirses’
I Association have taken an
apartment at Courtland and
Cain streets, where they will begin
the foundation of a nurses’ home
which is very much needed in At
lanta. As the demand grows for ac
commodations the quarters will be
enlarged, and in this way the nupses
who have no home of their own can
be comfortably housed and given the
atmosphere of a real home.
There has been a rapid increase of
trained nurses in the city, and many
of these busy workers have had to
depend largely upon boarding houses
or rooming houses where they could
set up their lares and penates and
sit under their own vine and fig tree.
The nurses' home, proposed, will be
an acceptable innovation to many in
the association.
The officers for the ensuing year for
the association are Miss Kamesky.

dent, Miss c. Norton, second vice

PAGEANT FOR ATLANTA
PROPOSED BY CLUBS.
N OW that pageants are becoming
a popular form of historical ed
ucation all over the country,
why should not the Atlanta Art As
sociation present the one proposed
several months ago? Pageants are
being given all over the country.
The one under preparation at Darien,
Conn., will be perhaps the most spec
tacular and wonderful of any hereto
fore given in this country.
The Darien pageant is being pre
pared by the Woman’s Civic League
of that town, and will include more
than a thousand representative men,
women and children in the scenes to
be enacted.
Recently there was held in Darien
a great rally when the plan was dis
cussed and its value to the town and
the Civic League was put under dis
cussion, with the result that enough
money was subscribed to more than
pay for a director and to carry out
every detail of the affair. After the
rally it was found that the surplus
money subscribed would be sufficient
to add handsomely to one of the
charities of the town.
This pageant will include many of
the stirring scenes of the days of the
colony and of the American Revolu
tion. Descendants of the heroes of
those times are ransacking the hid-

Mr. and Mrs. T. M. Webb and son,
Master Jesse Permenter Webb, will
leave Saturday for an extended visit
to Baltimore. Atlantic City, New York
and Providence, R. L
lng places of their mqst sacred heir
looms and offering to add to the
costuming of the participants.
There will be scenes from the War
of the Revolution and of the War of
1812 and down to the present time.
There will be scenes with Indians
and Tories and Whigs and Puritans.
All the heroes of the past who fig
ured in the wars of the past and who
lived in and around Darien will be In
the pageant. The Civic League has
working with them to pe.rfect their
subject matter for the great open air
exposition such men as William
Chauncey Langdon. an authority on
the historical details of those times;
Edwin Milton Royle, the author of
“The Squaw Man;” Lee Derichstein,
author and actor; Richard LeGal-
lienne, the poet, and Arthur Farwell.
the supervisor of municipal music in
New York.
New Atlanta could not present, as
a city, such a varied and colorful pa
geant as Darien, yet Georgia could.
Beginning with the visit of De-
Soto and his Spanish troops, with the
Indian tribes, with the War Between
the States, what could be more in
teresting? Georgia is brimful of his
toric facts and highly colored ro
mance.
General James Oglethorpe. John
Wesley and his brother Charles, the
hymn writer and preacher, the merry
Highlanders, the French and the
English soldiery—who made the old
fort at Frederika resound with the
bagpipe and the sound of musketry,
have their place in the pageant that
Atlanta could present.
And later the scenes of the Civil
War, the shelling of the town, the
reign of the Kn Klux, and ti e bril
liant military display on the old red
hills, all have a place in such a pa
geant.
Then why not go on with the plan
as proposed by the Art Association
some time ago, and give Atlanta one
of the most splendid spectacular en
tertainments ever witnessed in the
South? Many clubs in other towns
are giving such shows as much as
a matter of education as anything
else, and along with its educational
work the Art Association could de
vise no more pleasing plan than hold
ing a pageant.
Pageants are being held in the open
air. The one to be held at Darien
will be held on the grounds belong
ing to a descendant of one of the col
onists who took part in the drama
enacted on Good wives River, which
name was given the place by the In- ,
dians in appreciation of the kindness
shown them by the people living
along the banks of the river over a
hundred years ago.
It has been suggested that an At
lanta pageant could he held 'out the
Peachtree road near Peachtree creek,
with appropriate background, as the
creek would offer a landing place for
the Indian scenes and the scenes at
Frederika.
The Atlanta Art Association is
made up of some of the most influ
ential and prominent people in the
city—people whose names alone as
sure the enterprise a brilliant suc
cess, and if they take up the matter
as heretofore proposed, it would be
well worth while.
The Harry Osgoods are active
members of the association, and Mrs.
Clarence Blosser, whose father is at
the head of the Art Association at
New Orleans, is deeply interested in
all that pertains to the art life of At
lanta. Mrs. Belle Newman, an artist
of superior attainments herself, is a
member, and there are many others
who rank with the best as artists
and art critics in the association.
It Is likely that that matter will be
taken up by the association when it
resumes its activities in the fall.

MRS. M’WHORTER WORKS
FOR SUFFRAGE.
of the most ardent workers
from the ranks of clubwomen at
the State Capitol during the
convening of the Georgia Legislature
has been Mrs. Margaret McWhorter,
one of the leaders of the Woman’s?
Suffrage Association.
Mrs. McWhorter is an ardent suf
fragist. and declared that she is not
militant. Her work has been largely
directed to the passage of the bill pro
viding a home for wayward girls in
Georgia, tor the free kindergarten in
the schools, for the raising of the age
of consent, for the vital statistics bill
and for the ballot for women, which
Mrs. McWhorter, like her coworkers,
believes is jn assured thing for the
near future in Georgia.

man for her association on several
occasions at the Capitol, and her
arguments before the legislators have
been listened to with interest.

CLUB WOMEN NOT DISCOUR
AGED BY DEFEAT.
'T* HE defeat of the free kindergar-
| ten bill which was brought be
fore the Educational Committee
of the Legislature Tuesday afternoon,
w. a blow to the clubwomen who
have fought valiantly for its passage.
Several years ago Mrs. Nellie Pe
ters Black founded the free kinder
garten in Atlanta, and has success
fully carried on the six schools from
the beginning of this system of edu
cation. So successfully has this work
gone forward in Atlanta, and so great
an interest has been aroused from its
successful operation, that the club
women all over the State have inter
ested themselves in the system as a
valuable one for the public schools,
and their energies have been strongly
directed toward the passage of a bill
providing such a course of study in
the common schools throughout the
State.
Many of the best speakers and most
astute politicians among the club
women were in Atlanta during the
week, and while the bill wart lost at
this session of the Legislature, it will
be presented at the next General As
sembly with renewed vigor and influ
ence.

CIVIC CLUB CONDEMNS
PRESENT FASHIONS.
T HE Third Ward Civic Club held
an important meeting at Grant
Park last week, when a resolu
tion was passed to thank the City
Council (or passing an ordinance to
prohibit the dancing of the tango in
public places.
Another discussion of vital import
was taken up by the members of the
club, which was in a way a condem
nation of the present mode of dress
ing as practiced by young women of
Atlanta. Miss Kate Smith, one of
the prominent and bright women of
several social, civic and patriotic so
cieties in Atlanta, read a paper on
this subject, which was heartily in
dorsed by the women, especially the
mothers, present.
The meeting was hindered by the
storm which came up, just before the
hour set for the meeting, and it was
decided to take up the question of
dress again Friday afternoon when
the club met in the bandstand at
Grant Park, which was done with a
determination to remedy the evil, if
possible, by condemning the present
styles.
Among the prominent women pres
ent was Mrs. Justice. Dr. Florence
Truax and Miss Kate Smith,
SUFFRAGE LEAGUE BEGINS
ITS BUTTON CAMPAIGN.
T HE Woman's Suffrage League of
Atlanta began a unique cam
paign Thursday afternoon when
they opened up a sale of “V otes fot
Women” buttons and badges In a
store In Peachtree street, near the
Candler Building.
This sale was one of the attrac
tions of the locality, and hundreds of
women and men showed a vital inter
est in the literature that the suffra
gists distributed along with the but
tons and badges.
"We began this work on the day
the sufTruglsts presented themselves
at the Capitol at Washington," said
Mrs. J. B. Gardner, vice president of
the Woman’s Suffrage League in At
lanta. It was in a way a recognition
of the grand entre they were making
at the Capital. It was highly grati
fying to recognize the Intense inter
est that was shown not only by the
younger members of society, the
young women especially, but by the
men—men who are representative
business and professional men.
Thousands of pamphlets, buttons
and badges were distributed, and from
all appearances there were many con
verts made to suffrage and many open
expressions of affiliations with our
cause.”
The ladles In charge of the button
and badge sale were Mrs. Francis
Whiteside, Mrs. J. B. Gardner, Mrs.
M. E. Bradley, Mrs. Yeates and other
well-known women who have taken a

Allens Twice-Yearly
SHOE SA LE
This now recognized economy event in the
Shoe Business begins Monday, August 4th.
In Patent Leather
at $3.95.
Our shoe buyer, who has just returned from New York, has secured several hundred
pairs of the very newest and most wanted style Colonial Pumps with the Cuban French
heel (the shoe of the hour) at an unusually low price.
These we have added to our sale, as well as our own regular stock. Instead of making
them at their regular price of $6.00 and $7.00 a pair, they are offered at the unusual price
of $3.95.
This means that we offer the shoe wearers of Atlanta over $15,000
worth of this seasons newest and best styles in low shoes, pumps and
Colonials, at figures that will yield us less than $10,000. We do not
except a single low shoe. The prices are as follows:
Every $6.00 pump, Colonial or Oxford is now $4.95.
Every $5.00 pump, Colonial and Oxford is now $3.95.
Every $4.00 pump, Colonial and Oxford is now $2.95.
As we sell nothing at regular prices less than $4.00 a pair, except a few white shoes and
vici kid house shoes, we can not group the lower priced lots, but they are marked at va
rious prices from $2.45 down to $1.45 a pair.
The Cuban French heel, patent leather vamp, black and white satin combination
pumps that would ordinarily be $6.00 or $7.00 a pair, which we secured at a concession in
price, although just received by express, will go in this sale at the remarkable price of $3.95.
You know these twice-yearly shoe sales were inaugurated in Atlanta by our shoe man, and from
year to year they increase in importance, as by means of them we only offer yon the newest styles of
that season, plus the added experience which we gain with each new season’s business.
Every white and tan low shoe in the house is divided into three lots and is offered at
either $1.95, $2.95 or $3.95 a pair. They are worth just double.
