Greal Food For Children
You can’t give your children
Faust Spaghetti too often—it
is one of the few foods that is
extremely nutritious and very
easily digested. It is a rich
gluten food—gluten makes and
develops muscle, bone and
flesh. A 10c package of
SPAGHETTI
contains as much nutrition as
4 lbs. of beef- ask your doctor.
In sealed packages. Write 1or

MAULL BROS. St. Louis. \lo.
Yvette—a violin-virtuoso whose
wonderful work has attracted the at
tention of the country—has volun
teered her services for the great all-
star matinee to be given at the At
lanta Theater next Friday afternoon
for the benefit of the Empty Stocking
Fund.
Have you ever heard her play? The
music from her instrument pervades
you and holds you under its delightful
spell.
In a telegram to Manager Hugh
Cardoza, of the Forsyth Theater, from
Richmond, where she is now playing,
Yvette Saturday morning joined the
Christmas plot to surprise Atlanta's
poor children with a flood of happi
ness.
Is Willing and Eager.
Read her message. It Is typical of _
the big-heartedness of stage folk j
whenever they are asked for char
ity :
“Willing and eager to participate
in the big Empty Stocking Fund ben
efit for the poor children of Atlanta,
prepared by The Hearst Georgian and
Sunday American. It will be one of
the joys ot my life. Heartiest regards
to everyone interested and concerned.”
And what a benefit that is going to I
be!
Perhaps never has Atlanta had such
an assemblage of theatrical stars on
a stage at one time.
Robert Edeson—Rose Coghlan—
Wilton Lackaye—Max Figman—Lo
lita Robertson—
That is NOT half of them
U. D. C. Add to Fund.
Persons famous throughout the
United States and known all over the
world are going to work for the poor
of Atlanta.
This fact should inspire every cit
izen of Atlanta to come forward with
his contributions.
Many are doing so. > t many others
are not.
A most gratifying contribution re
ceived Saturday was a substantial
check from the Unit ’d Daughters of
the Confederacy. These good women
are never backward when the call for
charity goes out.
Every woman’s club in the city
should place its name on the contri
bution list. Their very existence,
which is for betterment of conditions,
demands as much.
Don’t Forget Tan n o Supper.
Women as individuals are asked to
send in contributions as well, it
doesn’t matter what the amount may
be. Little is needed to bring happi
ness to those who are poor.
But enough of sermonizing.
Now about this tango supper which
will take place at the Hotel Winec »ff,
beginning after the theater next Mon
day night.
It has been suggested that folks
who are going make up parties to at
tend this event. Nothing could please
the Christmas Editor better. What
he wants to do is to GET YOU
THERE.
More Dolls To Be Dressed.
Incidentally, it will bring m »r<
money into the Empty Stocking Fund
And more happiness to those poor lit-
tie ones waiting for Santa Claus.
Then, again, about thos dolls.
How long has it been since you
dressed a doll?
There are plenty of them left, ii
you want to try your hand. Just walk
into the office of The Georgian and
American at No. 20 East Alabama
street and ask for the dolls. You can
have as many as you life. And lots
of time in which to dress them.
