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.
