The most remarkable showing for
the first clays work probably was
that of Henry Schaul, who turned in
a report of $2,194 subscribed. That
his committee got busy at the tap of
the gong and kept at it until time for
luncheon was evidenced by the fact
that many of his subscriptions vveie
for small amounts and came from
many persons. They ranged from $5
and $6 up to $250 and $500.
SenauI Enthusiastic.
Mr. Schaul has been an enthusias
tic booster for the project since Dr.
Thornwell .Jacobs, returned to At
lanta and said It was up to this city
to give a bonus of $250,OOo in order
to retain the university.
He at once subscribed $250 on his
own account, and said that he would
be glad to head a committee when the
actual campaign began
He is suggesting to his subscrib
ers that they make tileir payments on
their birthdays. He hit upon this
scheme as an aid to their memories.

Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.
Almost every one knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
luster to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray: also ends dandruff, itching
s< alp and stops falling hair. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture was
to make it at home, which is mussy
and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy.” You will get a large
bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody'
uses this old. famous recipe, because no
one <an possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally and
evenly. Sou dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
a time: by morning the gray hair dis
appears. and after another application
or two. your hair becomes beautifully
dark, thick and glossy and sou look
years younger.—A<1 vt.
South’s Leading Men
Encourage Campaign.
Strong inspiration is to be found
In the letters coming to Dr. Thorn-
well Jacobs, who is taking a leading
part in the establishment of Ogle
thorpe University.
These letters come from men of
prominence and achievement over
the South. Now that they have
backed up the movement with large
subscriptions, they are looking to At
lanta t«/da her part in raising $250,-
000, which means success for the
great undertaking.
It is a singular fact that not one
of these large donors outside ex
press even the slightest doubt of
what Atlanta will do. They take it
for granted and as a matter of fact
that this city will subscribe the nec
essary amount in ;i conyparatively
short time This faith i« proving a
wonderful stimulus to the soliciting
committees and all are at work with
a vim and ardor that can mean noth
ing but success.
R. Howard, a leading citizen of Co
lumbus, who gave $1,000 to, the fund
and will he a member of the board of
trustees, writes to Dr. Jacobs:
"Atlanta is a big city and does big
tilings in many ways, and in my
humble judgment this will he one of
if not the largest, things she will
have done, and result in more good
being accomplished long after wo all
who feci so much Interest in it have
Passed over the liver to render out
accounts. I feel sure that if Atlanta
sees the importance and feels the in
terest in the great proposition it
should, you will have no trouble ic
raising the desired amount."

Men and Religion Bulletin No. 87
Qur Authority
The Executive Committee of the Men and Religion Forward Move
ment is not an independent organization. It is a part of the Evan
gelical Ministers’ Association of Atlanta. It is doing our work, under
our direction and reporting regularly to us. _ , _
It has received our full co-operation at every step. '' <
Its purpose is neither political nor dictatorial, but educational and
constructive.
Its sole object is to advance the Church of Jesus Christ as the most
effective instrument to be used in bringing to pass the Kingdom of God
on earth for which we pray.
Fifteen months ago in our capacity as citizens and ministers of the
Gospel and representing the Evangelical Ministers’ Association we pub
lished over our individual signatures our pledge of loyalty to the program
of the Executive Committee in the campaign against intolerable vice con
clitions in Atlanta.
The actual results accomplished in the overthrow of the inhuman
traffic, in accomplishing the establishing of the Daily Vacation Bible
Schools, in the building and maintenance of the Martha’s Home, in the
achievement of the County Home for incorrigible women and girls, in the
establishment of the Georgia Training School for Girls with an appro
priation from the State of $30,000.00, in relieving the harsh and unprofi
table dealing with convicts and first offenders, are facts of such outstand
ing value to the welfare of the City of Atlanta and the State of Georg,a
as to challenge the sympathy and suppoH of every Christian citizen.
With these facts before us we herewith present to the public the
unanimous re affirmation of our confidence in the Committee and our de
votion to its work and its program of agitation and education as sub
mitted to us.
The work must go on to the com pleter triumph which the victories
already won make sure.
