The totals will be swelled material
ly by the negro churches of the city.
A good share of the city’s church-
going people are of the'colored race
and the pastors of these churches
will be asked to keep a count of the
congregation on December 14 as is
done In the other churches.
To facilitate the compilation of the
church attendance figures a return
postcard will be sent to each of the
ministers, who will be asked to fill
it out for morning and evening ser
vice and mail It at once.
The rabbis of the Jewish syna
gogues. all of whom hold their ser
vices on Saturday, will fill out the
card for that day.

The Rev. F. A. Line. Uni versa!-

Pastors are urged to discuss the
topic from their pulpits and send
a report of their remark* to the
daily papers.
With a committee of ministers se
lected to arrange the details for "Go-
to-Church Day,” preparations were
begun in earnest Saturday to make a
record for Atlanta in church attend
ance when the great outpouring takes
place December 14.
The committee is made up of the
Rev. H. M. Du Bose, First Methodist
Church; the Rev John E. White.
Second Baptist Church; the Rev. J.
Wade Conklin#, Unitarian Church;
the Rev. W. W r . Memminger, All
Saints Episcopal Church; the Rev.
Richard Orme Flinn, North Avenue
Presbyterian Church, and the Rev.
F. A. Line, Unlversallst Church.
A meeting of the committee mem
bers will be held early* next week
when a chairman will be selected and
a program outlined for the service
December 14, which may be follow
ed in the .churches where it does
not conflict with the regular order of
aervice.
General Text Likely.
A general text from which all of
the pastors may preach will be se
lected. It is regarded as likely that
I the one suggested by Bishop C. K.
; Nelson will receive the approval of
the committee members. This was:
"Pure religion and undefiled before
f our God and Father is this—To visit
r the fatherless and widows in their
i affliction and keep himself unspotted
from the world."—James 1:27.
Several of the miniiters have sug
gested to at some prominent member
of each congregation be asked to
speak briefly—possibly five minutes—
at some point during the service on
the subject of church attendance. The
plan probably will receive the consid
eration of the committee. Practical
ly all of the churches will have spe
cial musical services in the morning
and evsr.?ng. j
“Go-to-Church Day" will receive !
notice *in scores of pulpits throughout j
the city Sunday. Some of the pas- :
tors will devote a few minutes to a
plea for a record attendance at the
services on Decenr’ Jk 14 and others
will give their w. . * ermon over to
a discussion of church attendance!
as a general proposition.
The Rev. H. M. DuBose, pastor of
the First Methodist Church, and one
of the committee members, will
preach in the morning on“Go to
Church—Why?”
In this sermon the whole question
of church-going will be opened and '
dl cussed from all angles. Dr. Du- j
Bose is enthusiastic over the “Go-to- i
Church Day" plan and will urge his
congregation to make a record on the
day set. His subject Sunday evening
will be "The Hell of the Bible.”
“T am convinced that the movement
should provide a great stimulus to
church attendance in Atlanta," said (
Dr. DuBose Saturday. “Larger con- j
gregations generally mean an Increase
in the spirituality. That is why my
efforts are at the disposal of the min
isters in assisting to make it the
greatest possible success.'’
Impressed With Possibilities.
The other committee members are
equally impressed with the possi
bilities that the plan presents and
are bending their energies to obtain
t co-operation of every church of
ev' y denomination in the city. No
vp^d will be omitted. It is the pur
pose to obtain a fairly accurate cen-
With 40 passengers, the first car
over the new Stone Mountain and
j Atlanta interurban electric line left
Alabama and South Pryor streets
I Saturday morning at 5:27 o’clock for
Stone Mountain. The regular sched
ule was begun then, and the cars
will leave Atlanta and Stone Moun
tain on a frequent schedule from
5:27 a. m. to 12:27 a. m.
The opening of the new line marks
an epoch in the development of Ful
ton and DeKalb Counties. It con
nects Atlanta with a fine agricultu
ral country, and puts many thriving
towns, such a a Decatur, Scottdale,
Ingle side and Kirkwood, within less
than an hours ride of Atlanta.
Tourists will be able to reach the
mountain of stone in an hour, and
the new line is expected to aid great
ly in the development of Stone Moun
tain as a place of interest to sight
seers.
The line is seventeen and a half
miles long, and the fare is 25 cents
one way, or 50 cents for the round-
trip. Commutation tickets of 54
trips good for 35 days will be sold

It Is expected that during the first
few weeks, most of the patronage

those who wish to take the trip for
the novelty of riding on the new line.
Preparations are being made to open
subdivisions along the line, which
promise to become popular suburbs.

am now waiting for Colonel James to
round up his witnesses, and as soon as

Doll-Dressing Call.
The Georgian’s plan of having
women and girls u’ho are assured of a
happy Christinas to dress dolls for
poor little girls who have no nope of
Santa Claus is causing activlt’es
Saturday.
From the first response it would
seem that every little girl In the city
who needs someone to direct Santa
Claus to» her will find a beautiful doll
in her stocking Christmas morning.
If the good i • * >le of Atlan* cqd
tinue to show the interest In the
Empty Stocking Fund they have evi
denced at the beginning, that cer
tainly will be the case.
The Empty Stocking Fund Is fur
nishing the undressed dolls. Those
who want to dress them can find
them at the following places:
The Georgian office, Alabama
street.
Piedmont Hotel.
Hotel Ansley.
Georgian Terrace
WinecofT Hotel.
Majestic Hotel.
Call at one of these places,

to be given to .Old Santa that it
may be included with the other good

Edward Alsop Here
To Wed Miss Jackson
Edward K. Alsop, of Washington,
D. C., son of Edward Alsop, of New
York, has arrived in Atlanta to
marry Miss Eula Jackson, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Jackson
and one of Atlanta’s leading society
girls. The wedding will take place
December 12, the anniversary of the
wedding of the bride’s parents.

The poet—whoever he was—was
Quite right, it seems, when he penned
this scintillant quatrain:
.4* a rule, man's a fool—
When it’s hot, he wants it cool;
When it's cool, he wants it hot,
Aiways wanting what is not!
In the days of auld lang syne, we
used to have biennial sessions of the
esteemed Legislature In Georgia—but
wo were not happy. Nobody knew
altogether why we were not happy,
but we were not.
That being the case, it as up to
somebody to find out the true cause
of our misery—and by and by some
v\ ise philosopher had a brainstorm,
and decided it was biennial sessions
of the General Assembly that so long
bad vexed our patience and put ev
erything strictly on the blink in Ji
bracing conversation, and the straight
tip not to confine their efforts to the
names on the cards.
"Pretty nearly everybody in Atlanta
j is coming through on this deal," Mr.
Allen told them, “and we aren’t mak
ing any restrictions whatever. We
have now reached the stage where it’*
time to stop .alking and do some
thing."
Five Years to Pay.
The terms were easy, the commit
tees were told. Five years would oe
allowed to those subscribers wno
wished it—five payments, a year apart
or such shorter terms as might be
desired. And then there was another
rowing talk by Uaptain English and
another by J. R. Gray, of The Jour
nal. and a warm commendation of the
three Atlanta newspapers—Captain
English said he never had seen such
inspiring unanimity on any project
before, and he had watched the va
rious projects of Atlanta since the
time when his totale arthly posses
sions consisted of n ratrtred shirt, a
pair of jeans trousers and tw T o worn
brogan shoes.
Tt didn’t take more than an hoar
all told, and then the meeting broke
up with a round of handclapping and
a lot of handshaking, too, and the
committees were Instructed to meet
at 12:30 o’clock Monday for a f*pec«.i
luncheon on the second floor of the
Piedmont Hotel to “report progress.’’
That noonday luncheon will be a reg
ular thing during the ‘‘quarter-of-a-
milJion” campaign, for, as Mr. Allen
wisely observed:
"We’ll have to eat somewhere, and
we’d better eat together and not waste I
any time from business -and you fel- OUBV r,,nn
lows bring along your prospects, too!”

That looked as good as any other
excuse to a lot of people, who real
ly were getting tired of being un
happy. and longed for a resumption
of Easy street life the worst way,
and so the hue and cry went up for
annual sessions of the Legislature—
and pretty soon we got ’em in Geor
gia. and we have had ’em ever since.
It appears, however, that annual
sessions of the Legislature have re
mained In our midst so long they
have worn out their erstwhile wel
come, and now everybody is knocking
them.
Mark The Darien Gazette, in re
annual sessions of the Legislature:
“Wouldn’t it be a great thing
for Georgia if the Legislature
would throw old selfishness over
board and adopt that biennial
session amendment the coming
summer! It would be cause for
rejoicing because It would save
the State many thousands of dol
lars.
“It Is thought by close observ
ers that the prohibition question
will figure largely in the election
of members of the Legislature
the coming year. Good men. If
you can get them to go. should
be sent to the Legislature. How
ever. It is a hard matter to get
a good man to consent to fool
away fifty days of his valuable
time in assisting others to do
nothing.
“We need biennial sessions—
and need them quick!”
After all. as Pope observed one
day. having nothing better to do at
the moment, and not being a very

he blessedl"
of Albany circuit, to Congress Is re
garded by many In his section as an
auspicious time for reopening the
discussion for a new Superior Court
circuit in South Georgia.
It is stated that a bill will be In
troduced in the next session of the
Legislature asking for the creation
of a new circuit composed of Worth
and Turner Counties of the Albany
circuit, and Tift, and Colquitt of the
Southern circuit.
Both the Albany and the Southern
circuit are alreadv too large, and
though the people of the four counties
seemingly wc regret to leave the
circuits they are now in- it la gen
orally conceded that a change Is mos’
desirable for business reasons.
The Judges of the Southern and
Albanv circuits as they are now eon
stituted have scarcelv time for hold
ing the regular terms of court and
have no vacation periods, and, of
course they are not able to devote
the time that should be given to the
afTairs of each county. A circuit,
composed of Tift. Turner, Worth and
Colquitt would greatly relieve this
congestion of court business.
The corridors of the State Capitol
are being cleared out for the coming
of the Boys’ Corn Clubs and the
Girls’ Canning. Pickling and Pre
serving Clubs next week.
Last year's show was a great sue
cess, but this year’s will be far big
ger and better. The space occupied
in the Capitol heretofore will not be
nearly sufficient to accommodate this
year’s phow, and it is apparent even
now that If next year's show grows
in proportion over this year's as this
year’s has grown over last, the en
tire exhibit w'lll have to go to the
