Clubwomen Join Hands With Important
Movement—Mavor Enthusiastic Promoter.
Convinced that a public market
would be a great aid In Atlanta a tight
to reduce the cost of living as well as
a matter of convenience, Atlanta cit
izens, through representative organi
sations. have taken the greatest step
yet made toward the establishment of
a central market. A civic committee
will be named to investigate by per
sonal visit the public markets of
other large cities, and to report their
findings as a basis for action by At
lanta.
The decision to name the commis
sion was reached at a recent meeting
of a committee from the Chamber of
Commerce and representatives of tne
Retail Grocers' Association, and at a
later conference between Wilmer L.
Moore, president of the Chamber of
Commerce, and Mayor Woodward
The Mayor Saturday was enthusiastic
in advocating a central market.
As a result. Mayor Woodward will
name three persons to make the trip,
and three will be appointed by Presi
dent Moore, of the Chamber of Com

made soon, and the commission thus
organised will begin Its work Imme

the city are behind the movement.
Mrs A. P. Coles, president of the
Woman's Club, said Saturday that
this movement, being of inestimable
public cignlflcance. is worthy of the
active support of every woman.
“The need of a publie market la Im

The establishment of a public mar
ket has been one of the leading poli
cies of President Moore's administra
tion of the Chamber of Commerce,
and a committee some time ago was
named to consider the project.
The committee, whose members
have taken decisive step, is composed
of A. J. Orme, R. J. Lowry, Frank
H. Inman, Charles H. Black, J. Epps
Brown, Charles E. Sciple, A W. Far
llnger, Luther H. Still and Walter
Rich. The committee from the Re
tail Grocers' Association which met
with the Chamber committee is O. T.
Camp, president of the association;
C. A. Tappan. F. J. Kam per, J. H.
Bullock, A. H. Chapman and C. C.
McDonald.
Question of the location of the cen
tral market was raised, with a va
riety of opinions as the result May
or Woodward is strongly in favor of
erecting a building above the railroad
tracks between Whitehall and For
syth streets, thus placing the market
within easy reach of shoppers, and
at the same time creating a new dis
trict Mayor Woodward has urged
the establishment of a market build
ing above the railroad tracks for some
time.
Will Insure Competition.
Arguments tn favor of the public
market advanced at the meeting of
the two committees were: It will
provide a means for direct negotia
tions between retailers and truck
farmers, thus eliminating the middle
man's profits, it will Insure compe
tition between retailers, to the great
advantage of the housewives; it will
open the way toward obtaining al
ways fresh, wholesome food, provid
ing easy and adequate inspection
It is likely that the three members
of the commission appointed by the
Mayor will be Councilmen or Aider
men, and that thus an official tone
will be given the tour. The official
atmosphere will invest the institu
tion altogether, and, according to the
plans of tlie committees behind the
movement, the public market of At
lanta will be in every sense the en
terprise of all the city and of all Its
citizens.

North Georgia Methodist Confer
ence Will Vote on Questions
of Church Polity.
ELBERTON, Oct 11.—Elberton has
started preparation# for the coming
session of the North Georgia annual
Methodist conference, which will con
vene here November 50. It 1# expected
that at least 500 Methodist ministers
and laymen will be In attendance
The homes of Elberton people, Irre
spective o f denomination, will be
thrown open to entertain the visitors.
The conference sessions will be held
tn the First Methodist Church, and
will be presided over by Bishop Col
lins Denny, of Richmond. Rev R.
J. Cleckler, pastor of the First Metho
dist Church, and Rev. T. J. Christian,
presiding elder of the Elberton D.s
trict. who will be hosts to the con
ference body, are In active charge of
all preliminary work of preparing for
the convention.
The conference last met here in
1895. This year numerous Items of
business of far-reaching Importance i
will be considered, among which are j
the vote on changing the name of the
church, the electing of delegates to ■
the General Conference of 1914, the.
selecting of new presiding eiders and j
the consideration of extending the
laity rights to women.
The announcing of the preachers'
appointments, which always occurs
the last day. Is the matter of chlefest
concern. The making of the appoint,
ments this year will be a difficult
matter, on account of several deaths
that have occurred during the year,
and of the retiring of some older men
from the active ministry.
Since the Atlanta District Is the
largest and most Important In the
conference, the appointments tor that
district are most discussed. Dr. W. |
P. Lovejoy, presiding elder over that 1
district, has only served two years In :
that capacity. It Is not expected that
he will be moved. Rev. J. S Strick
land, of the Bonnie Brae Church, Is
the only man In the district who will
be forced to move on account of the
expiration of his four years.
Those ministers of the Atlanta Dis
trict who have served their chargee
three years are Rev. C. V. Weathers,
of the East Atlanta charge; Rev. J.
M. Hawkins, of the Decatur Orphans'
Home; Rev. C. L. Bass, of the Mount
Vernon Church; Dr. 8. R. Belk, of
Park Street Church; Rev. G. D. Stone,
of Payne Memorial Church; Rev. A.
