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. Miss Helen McCullough at the top. Miss Laura Lee Cooney to the left.

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.

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, doll and leave your address dress It and return it In time to be given to .Old Santa that it may be included with the other good things with which he is going to fill the empty stockings in Atlanta.

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 romance began at Lake Toxa- way in 1912. where Mr. Alsop met Miss Jackson after completing ills studies at Yale. Their engagement was announced September 28.

And it might be remarked in pass ing that Mr. Allen, who gave $12 to the other fund, is down for $1,000 in this one. so nobody can accuse him of not practicing what he preaches.

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.

And then there was another rowing talk by Uaptain English and another by J. R.

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!” Names of Workers.

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.

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.
