Carlton’s . 36 Whitehall St. New Derbies— New Soft Hats for Fall TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Beavers Thinks Man Can Be Only Wondering Spectator of Ever- Changing Feminine Styles. "The question of woman’© dress is a delicate ^subject, i can’t say what I would do to prevent indecorous and Immodest garb until my attention Is called to such a case.” This was the manner in which Chief Heavers avoided committing: himself Friday’ in respect to the pol icy in several other cities which has resulted in the arrest and fining of women who have appeared on the streets in gowns too daring. The Chief would talk about wom an's dress in a general way, yes; but when It came to setting the line be tween modesty and immodesty or to divulging what he would do If the limit were overstepped, he was silent. Chief Beavers is a firm believer in the theory that the history of wom an’s dress forms a cycle that re- Jacobs’ Mosquito Lotion Banishes Mosquitoes Ju»l a drop no handkerchief or nothin*, or on the akin.

Only two days remain In which 250 poor boys and girls of Atlanta may wonder rather wistfully if they’ will be able to go to public school this year, whether the good genlu* of At lanta's generosity will supply the money needed for their school books and a few clothes. They have no money themselves, and even going to public school re quires some money. Hence the ap peal for contributions. But no appeal in their behalf can be written quite so forcible as the appeal of the children themselves They are big, human documents, each one of them, a poignant demand on yoi**’ sentiment, each one of them. And when it is qonsidered that the apapal is multiplied 250 times, the matter becomes something for your Heart's consideration. * A Logical, Human Appeal. And then there is a logical appeal, as well. It could be argued that If these children must run the streets, acquiring the companionships and the habits of the streets, the cost may be more to the city than a dollar or two apiece ultimately. Your contributions will mean the difference between education and Il literacy, good citizenship and vIcIouh- ness. Your contributions will mean only a dollar or two from you, but worlds, significant worlds, for Willie Watson and the 250 boys and girls like him. Atlanta, It is true, has a large num ber of interests Just now. There is the pennant race, and the players must be remembered. The show- houses all are opened, after a long spell of theatrical Inactivity. And the fall fashions are in our midst with their demands on the pocketbook. But Atlanta Is a big, prosperous city, big enough to have a heart and to realise that a demand on the heart is the big gest of all its interests. Children Deserve Education. The fund which The Georgian and Sunday American la endeavoring to raise and turn over to the Associated Charities grew slowly Thursday and Friday. Considerably more Is neces sary than has been given, and the appeal Is here voiced with renewed force. Remember that 250 children must go to school. They deserve it. and the city that is their home deserve© It. Everybody, you must confess, de serves this chance for an education Remember thta from $1 to $10 is necessary to provide each with the outfit necessary—books, and, In the case of 129, clothes that are present- able. Gifts of cast-off clothing wfll be received by the Associated Charities, which asks that such contributions be sent to its ofTlces in the Gould build ing, on Decatur street, between Peachtree and Pryor. Money contri butions may be sent to that office, or to The Atlanta Georgian and Sunday American. Remember, too, that your giving should be done to-da*-. School opens Monday.

Neither would it astound him to see the Roman style of dress in vogue agaiu. Man can do nothing except in the role of an innocent and wondering spectator. His attitude, the Chief thinks, must be strictly neutral. If the fad for X-ray garments and such like begins to hark back to the days in the Garden of Eden, then It be comes a matter for official comment for the protection of the community's morals, but the Chief does not think the styles have developed—or revert ed—to this extent. Second Couple in Two Days Ar rested and Ordered Before Recorder Broyles. CHECKER SHARKS. BINGHAMTON. N. Y..

Following a custom he established years ago in other cities, J. F. Let- ton, manager of the Hotel Ansley, Friday night will entertain represen tatives of Atlanta newspapers at a dinner. JJu uuvuraor Juui la. A kneelet of gold, studded with dia monds, is the latest thing to-day. The one shown in the picture is worn by Jane Ott, of New York, teacher of the tango. She plans to introduce to the public this newest of woman's orna ments. The kneelet is to be worn with a slit gown, which almost permits the knee to emerge from its retirement of centuries. The gown is just a tri- fle more daring than any yet shown This kneelet is worth $7,500. It consists of a broad plaque of filigree gold encrusted with diamonds. In this respect—except that it is much wider—it resembles its predecessor, anklet. But, owing to the firmness of its position, it is able -to do what the anklet could not do-^-it supports a pendant, or drop, which is a large pearl set in many diamonds. Its designers hope that it will neither shock the lawmakers who might forbid its use, or those with sufficient force of character to arouse a public opinion which would turn against the daring slit skirt necessary to display the Kneelet.

The Famous English Suffragette Leader to Tour Principal Cities to “Grease Wheels of Cause.” Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, Sept. 5.—A hint was given to-day at the headquarters of the Women’s Social and Political Un ion that Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, who is planning a tour of the United States this fall, will introduce mili tant methods in the suffrage cam paign in America. One prominent member of the organization is quoted as saying: “Things will move more rapidly when Mrs. Pankhurst reaches the other side. She will liven things up. The founder of militantism can show the American women how to grease the wheels of the cause.” Joan Wickham will sail on the Cedric on September 11, and is due In New York September 19 to ra- range the Pankhurst tour. Mra Pankhurst will make several ad dresses in New York and expects to speak ’ also in Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver and San Francisco, Baltimore.

Superintendent Slaton Thinks More Evil Than Good Would Result—Up to Parents. More evil than good would result from the teaching of sex hygiene to school children, in the opinion of Superintendent William F. Slaton of the Atlanta public schools, and he will oppose any attempt to introduce such a course. “I can’t get away from the old idea that this is a subject which should be handled by parents,” said Mr. Sla ton Friday. "And I really believe that the proper course for the advocates of such teachings is for them to teach the parents, who in turn may teach the children. “The effect which the teachings of a morbid-minded person might have upon the young minds is something which we very much hate to con sider, but which we must. It would be apt to put thoughts in young minds which would never have been thought of otherwise. “Of course, I do not mean by this that those favoring this teaching are morbid-minded, but an overzealous person is apt to reveal a morbidness, and these overzealous ones might creep in. “I am very much opposed to the proposition, and hardly think it will be suggested for the Atlanta schools any time soon. I would suggest that the good people who are really serious in their belief that sex hygiene should be taught in the schools, commence a campaign to educate the parents. This, in my opinion, is by far the best method.” At the Lyric. No better attraction could have been selected by the management of the Lyric to open the regular theatrical sea son than charming little Emma Bunt ing, who has made so many friends in Atlanta during her several stock en gagements in the city. The present ve hicle, "The Circus Girl, is a splendid play with an interesting plot, w’ell staged and delightfully acted, and Miss Bunting has an opportunity that suits her talents perfectly. Miss Bunting's engagement is for a week only, termi nating with the Saturday night per formance. At the Bijou. Jewell Kelley and his supporting compffhy are drawing splendid au diences this week to the Bijou. The Man From the West” as a play is high er class than most offerings of st >ck companies. It goes to show that he Jewell Kelley company is quite capable of producing high-class plays as well as melodramas of the more sensation;*) kind. For next week the offering will be the sensational comedy drama, "My Dixie Girl,” a "story of the Kentucky mountains with quaint characters and mountain feuds. The third week will open with the matinee Monday after noon as usual.
