To the women who HAVK little children, to those who have NEVER known the exquisite Joy of clinging arms and the confident love of a baby, and those who have only the MEMORY of rose-leaves and a little white coffin to start their tears on Christmas Day. It is to these women that I would bring my message. There are hundreds of children in Atlanta who will have no <'hriatinas pleasures Children as confident, as ignorant of the bitterness of life, and with faith us strong as the ones at your own fireside. !t is tor these sm^ll people of Poverty, of Fate, or whatever Force that brings them to their unfortu nate Condition, that I plead. The Georgian and The Sunday American have generously offered to fill the empty stockings of these chil dren at your door, if you will co-op erate with them. By a special ar rangement of the management of these two papers, the dollar you give «»r the two dollars, or the* five dollars will be of the value of three to one, 'ri the purchase of clothing and toys and all the gifts that will go toward brightening the child’s Christmas morning. In some of the years of your own childhood there may have been Christmas mornings when you may have >earned for something that you did not receive, and in memory of those unhappy Christmas mornings, see If you can not make it bright for some unhappy child. It may have been that you DID have all the love ly things that you dewired. and if you will think of how GOOD It Is to be glad, then see what you can do to ward making other hearts light. You will not regret It. bOLUE BELLE WYLIE * * * • I ~"*HE revival of the Esperanto class, which organized In Atlanta sev eral years ago, is a matter of much interest to a number of clubwo men, who were In the original organi zation. and to others who have never studied this language.

The custom is almost universal and is extending each year; a fact that is natural when it is remembered that this is the least expensive and most delicate means of conveying our share in the sum total of Christmas happiness. “While ready-made cards for this occasion are offered for sale at many places, these are not so much in demand now as those which are specially engraved.
