EMPHATIC APPEALS FOR
MADE III PULPITS SUNDAY
HOME FOR FRIENDLESS CHILDREN
ARE CENTER OF INTEREST AT SHOW
Loft to right, Miss Marguerite CVitrell, two children of Horae*
for Friendless under her charge, and Miss Elizabeth Gregg, head of
Dependent Chihl Section in Welfare Exhibit.
\ rousing appeal in behalf of ”Go-
s-Church Day,” even more general
nan that delivered last veek from
i. pulpits of Atlanta, will be made
.n Sunday throughout the city.
Paatora who urged their congregi-
ons last Sabbath to turn out in rec
ord-breaking numbers on the eventful
tv December 14—will be even more
mphatic in their insistence this
week. The ministry of the city is
Hwake to the importance of the oc-
usion and has signified its Intention
' overlooking no opportunity to
make it an epochal one in the re
gions history of Atiant^.
The movement for a "Go-to-Churon
Day,” when every church in the city
was to get out the maximum strength
of its memoersnip, took people some-
vhat by surprise at its inception, but,
quickly appreciating the great possi
bilities it offered in the way of stimu
li ing church attendance and inter-
st in religious work, the laity soon
i ed with the pastors in a concerted
endeavor to bring about a tremendous
utpouring of churchgoers whose
umbers would set a record for other
ities of Atlanta’s size to wonder at
and strive for.
Pastors Determined.
Atlanta for years has enjoyed the
reputation of being a churchgoing
. ity. The ministers have s>et to work
•n make a striking demonstration of
'iis fact. The pastor of every church
i the city has determined to fill his
building to capacity at all services or;
December 14, and thus provide a stim-
, 1 us for a better attendance through
out 1914 than he had In 1913.
There will be no poaching on the
reserves of another. There will he
no rivalry aside from the friendly
ompetition which may spring be
tween churches well matched in size
of memberships. Each church will
keep closely to its own members and
to persons without church affiliations
in its work to obtain capacity con
gregations.
The chief aim is to obtain the sum
total of people attending church in
Atlanta on December 14. The idea of
a contest to determine which church
can get out the largest congregation
i» eliminated by the "Go-to-ChurJh
Day” plans. The movement is for the
benefit of all of the churches of At
lanta and for the encouraeement of
the city's religious growt .
Whole State Interested.
Committees have been appointed in
many of the churches to review *hc
membership rolls and to see that
every person thereon receives a per
sonal invitation to attend the serv
ices on December 14. Some of the
pastors have made the invitation al
most a demand, and woe betide the
thoughtless wight who forgets to be
in his place on the day appointed.
So popular a chord the “Go-tn-
Church Day” idea has struck among
the ministry that, without any spe
cial effort to spread its observance
outside of Atlanta this year, in many
cities of the State the movement is
beinc taken up enthusiastically, ani
the day will be observ ed on the same
date that it is in Atlanta.
Prior to the “Go-to-Church Day”
movement it never had appealed to
the ministers as a possibility that on
some certain Sunday in the ear the
entire churchgoing population of t ie
State might join in a vast outpouring,
and that on that day every churcn
within Georgia’s borders might he
packed to its utmost limits Now
such a possibility seems very close to
realization.

day morning, as she balanced a plate
on her forearm and deftly wiped it
with a clean towel, "that I'm down
here in this place raising hell. But
I'm not. I'm elevating it. for in my
humble opinion that's the proper
name for the average Atlanta res
taurant."
Such being the case. Mrs. Keefer
advances a number of reformative
measures which she says will curb
the activities of the microbe and
thwart the purposes of the advancing
armv of cockroaches, which have a
finger, speaking figuratively, in every
pie cut in an Atlanta restaurant.
Her Remedy for Evil.
Here are a few things she says
ought to be done:
1. Have a public restaurant inspec
tor.
2. Put the men in jail who rent
buildings for restaurant purposes
that are not fit to be used as barns
—and start with the man who owns
the place where ! wash dishes.
3. Legislate sanitation and hygiene
into every restaurant. ,
4 Make people quit preparing food
with their hands.
"I make no secret of the fact that
I’m an uplifter." she said, "hut I’m
not the ordinary uplifter. I’m trying
to strike at the root of human happi
ness and ambition, and it lies in the
stomach. Tf you’re going to uplift a
man. you’ve got to uplift his stomach
first, and you elevate his mind only
when you ' elevate his stomach, for
that is the source of all our etm-
tions. _ . .
Mav Stir Up Trouble.
"I don’t know whether I’m going to
accomplish anything by* working .n
these restaurants, but If I can ac
complish what I'm after I’ll stir up a
lot of trouble for the men who own
these restaurant buildings. They are
the first people we must get after m
the campaign for better kitchens.
Thev rent buildings for restauran
pttrpo.es that are not fit to be renW
a. stables. The walls are filled with
nesting places for microbes ..nd in
sects. and ideas of cleanliness appear
to be almost unknown. There ought
to be a law putting any man in jail
who rents such a building for eating
PU -'The e8 r.ight kind of a restaurant
should have concrete walls and a con
crete floor and concrete tables, wh-.e
no insects and microbes can br-eo.
The floor? should be divided into sec
tions. With drains running through
each section, so that portions of ■
ran be thoroughly cleaned at ans tim*
without interfering with thr otter
section®
For Restaurant Inspector
“An'i after all the property owners
are put in jail and the restaurant
buildings are fitted properly for res
taurants. we should have a nubile re,
taurant Inspector to see that they a r
kerb Clean. We have a Smoke In
spector—though he doesp l seem to d .
much 1n.pec.mg: and a I-ire Inspector
and a Building Inspector, and an in
spector for everything under the sun
except the very thing that needs one.
Mrs. Keefer says she has not for
saken the ease and comfort of her
mansion on Piedmont avenue f..r the
sink and dish towel of the restau
rant kitchen through anv desire fot
notorietv. but because she is a gen
uine reformer, and has a mission to
fulfill.”
TO PAY MUSCOGEE TEACHERS.
COLUMBUS Dec. 6. The Board
of Education of Muscogee County has
completed arrangements to borrow
monev to pay the teachers of the
count v in full for their services,
without waiting until the funds from
> State arrive.
Most everybody likes to watch little
children at work or play.
And maybe that’s the reason why
the fifteen iittle boys and girls from
the Home for the Friendless are al
ways the center of a curious throng
at the ('hiid Welfare and Public
Health Exhibit. They are of moat
importance in the Dependent Child
Section of the show, which has a room
to the left as you enter the building.
And every one of the fifteen young
sters what time they are not chat
tering and giggling with the exuber
ance of childhood—are wffrking, al
though it doesn’t appear to be work.
The average child, if it likes the
task given it. can make almost any
work seem like play—and the people
who train the children at the Home
for the Friendless have the knack of
teaching them to love their work—
and therefore it is play.
Panels Show Achievements.
Probably no section of the show
has attracted more attention than
the Dependent Child Section. While,
of course, the children are the center
of attraction, there are other thing*
in the exhibit which make it worth
while.
There are panels illustrating the
work of five of the well-known At
lanta orphan asylums, two of them
negro institutions. Photographs of
children from the Home for the
Friendless are shown on one panel,
with statements of the work being
done.
On another panel the work of the
Decatur Orphan Home, which makes
a specialty of the cottage plan of
caring for its children, is shown, and
on still another the Georgia Children’s
Home traces the progress of a child
from lowly surroundings through the
various stages of admission to the
home and adoption into a childless
home.
And there are also panels showing
what the Carrie Steele Home and the
Leonard Street Home are doing for
the negro children cast out into the
world.
Atlanta Institutions Praised.
And on the other side of the room
'are panels showing conditions in an
ideal orphan home, and a panel show
ing scenes in a girls’ training school.
Then there is a "How to Help” panel,
vividly telling the best ways to make
up to the child for the loss of Us
home.
And it is much to the credit of the
Atlanta institutions to say that ^the |
experts declare they compare very
favorably with the ideal institu
tions told of on some of the panels.
There is no orphan home that is per
fect. the experts say. but the Atlanta
Institutions appear to Vie doing a great
deal of the work that is recommended
for the ideal home.

City Electrician R. C. Turner took
Aldlne Chambers’ bitter attack on him
Saturday in a spirit of levity. He did
not seem to be worried In the least
because he had been called a liar,
blackguard and grafter, but smilingly
found solace in a quotation from Wil-
| Ham Jennings Bryan;
"1 seem to have drawn Chambers’
fire at last," no said. "I am very
well satisfied with the situation.
"William Jennings Bryan says that
every man in public life must stand
a certain amount of criticism. 1 am
willing to stand my share.
"Mr. Chambers is unwilling, or un-
abb* to stand his, as he retired from
public life at the last election.”
Since Electrician Turner’s personal
attack on him, Mr. Chambers, ex-
Councilman and attorney for the Cot-
■ on States Electric Company, has
dropped all mere intimations of
wrongdoing on tlie part of the City
Electrican and boldly accused him of
being a "blackguard, deliberate liar,
slanderer and a grafter."
"1 charge that lie got *180 from the
association of electrical contractor*
in November. 1912," said Mr. Cham
bers. "That was after his election,
and could not have been a campaign
cont ribution.
"What did he get it for?
‘‘He admits having received a gold
watch from the contractors.
"What did he get that for?
"As to Mr. Turner’s charge that
I received campaign contributions
from the Georgia Railway and Power
Company, I answered that during an
investigation by the General Council
last year, which body denounced Tur
ner as a deliberate liar and slanderer.
"As to his intimation that h repre
sentative of the Barber Asphali Com
pany paid to me and two officials of
Atlanta a sum of money In New York
in the summer of 1912, he knows that
it Is utterly false, and that he is a
common blackguard and liar as well
as a grafter."
