Some of the toys and dolls are me chanical and are in motion, and all through the day juvenile Atlanta— and adult Atlanta, too—clusters be fore the window. A woman and a little boy scarcely 6 years old stopped in front of the window Wednesday morning. The woman was clothed plainly. She had no furs about her neck; she made shift to protect herself from tile chill air by buttoning her worn jacket close to her throat. Her ungloved hands had never felt the warm fur Qf a muff. , The child, in a thin red Buster Brown suit, shivered. His shoes were overrun at the heels, and they'were so large they flapped curiously as he walked. He wore no gloves, and he kept his little hands warm by thrust ing them into the front of his jacket. Others There. Well Clad. The mother and her child stopped in front of the window. I-ittle girls and boys enveloped in furs stood there, excitedly telling their mothers, warmly and stylishly clad, just what they wanted old Santa Claus to bring them—and the mothers smilingly promised “to speak to Santa about it.” The poor little boy with,the worn shoes and the thin elothes gazed at Ihe toys with every line of his little faye reflecting joy He watched with fascinated eyes the mad whirlings of a red and green mdHianical fire en gine and a long, red engine and train of cars. , His mother watched, too. and the sadness in her eyes deepened. She gripped ihe little hand tighter. The little boy raised his shining eyes. . "Mama, can I have a fin* engine for Christmas?” She stroked the little head. •|—i—I’m afraid not, dea A Living Appe a b “Won’t Santa Claus bring it to me. mama, if you ask him to?” . "I hope so, honey: but I don t know,” the mother salfl. chokingly The little boy began to cry, softly •I never did see Santa Claus, mama.” he sobbed; "1 never had any thing to play wit'll. I want a fire en gine.” And then they went away, tne mother holding the little boy close, as though .she feared that he, Ido, would be taken from he>- as all the joy and happiness of childhood had been taken from him. The child sobbed, and the mother winked hard to keep back the tears And all he wants is a little red and green fire engine. It’ll cost maybe a quarter, maybe a half dollar And he can’t have it! Have you ever stopped to think. Mr Atlanta Man, that there are hun dreds of such children in Atlanta— hundreds who want nothing but a (heap little red and green fire en gine” And can’t have it. because all the money the father makes must go for the bare necessities of iife? It’s Up to You. And after you begin to think about it. after you get the thought of these poor little children in your mind — what kind of a Christmas is YOURS going to be if you don’t do something foe. them—something to bring the ligh* to their eyes and joy to their souls? Watch your own children play around the house to-night—and then ask yourself how you’d feel if you had to tell THEM that Santa Claus wasn't coming this year. Of course, you don’t HAVE to hell, the poor little childish. You CAN keep your dollar or your five dollars and buy yourself a new necktie or a new shirt: but * Which had you rather have? A new shirt or the knowledge (hat you had saved a little heart from the greatest of childish sorrows, and the knowledge that a grateful mother is including you in her prayers to the Almighty ? It ifc up to YOU to make a choice. And Dolls to Be Dressed. If YOU value a shirt or a necktie more than you value that warm feel ing. tiiat indescribable exhilaration of soul that follows a good deed—then keep your money and spend it as you sec fit. , But if YOU had rather bring peace and happiness to a home; if YOU bad rather awake Christmas morning kno\Ung that through YOU some lit tle boy or girl is romping and shout ing in the acme of earthly happiness —then write out a check or put some money in an envelope and mail it to the Christmas Editor of The Ameri can and Georgian It will be applied to the Empty Stocking Fund—and the little boys will get their fire engines and the lit tle girls will get their dolls.
