\ n‘iising appeal In behalf of "Go-
hurrh Day," even more general
• ,n that delivered last veek from
• ■ pulpits of Atlanta, will be made
: Sunday throughout the city.
Pastors who urged their congrega-
,as last Sabbath to turn out In rec-
.[(].breaking numbers on the eventful
iv December 14—will be even more
( ■ a!:c in their insistence this
week. The ministry of the city is
awake to the importance of the oc-
«Fi"n and has signified it3 intention
at overlooking no onnortunlty to
make it an epochal one In the r?-
;,glous history of Atlanta.
The movement for a "Go-to-Churcb
Day.” when every church in the city
was to get out the maximum strength
of its memoersnip, took people some
what by surprise at its inception, but,
quickly appreciating the great possi
bilities It offered in the way of stimu.
la ting church attendance and inter
est in religious work, the laity soon
Joined with the pastors in a concerted
cnueavor to bring about a tremendous
outpouring of churchgoers whose
numbers would set a record for other
cities of Atlanta’s size to wonder at
and strive for.
Pastors Determined.
Atlanta for years has enjoyed the
reputation of being a churchgoing
city. The ministers have set to work
to make a striking demonstration of
ihts fact. The pastor of every church
in the city has determined to fill his
building to capacity at all services ot)
December 14, and thus provide a stim
ulus for a better attendance through
out 1914 than he had In 1913.
There will be no poaching on the
preserves of another. There will be
no rivalry aside from the friendly
competition which may spring be-
St. Paul’s Church to
Install New Officers
At Sunday Service
At St. Paul's Methodist Church the
newly elected officers for the ensuing
year will be installed by the pastor
Sunday morning. A special sermon
will be preached by Dr. B. F. Fraser.
Dr. Fraser, who returned to the city
Saturday morning from Miami, Fla.,
where he assisted in a ten days’ re
vival, will occupy his pulpit both Sun
day morning and evening.
St. Paul’s Church, the largest in
point of congregation in the city, will
begin the new year under the most
favorable circumstances. The church
is fre from debt, and has added, this
year, to its roll more than 400 new
members. The congregation, Dr.
Fraser says, never has been more
zealous.

tween churches well matched in size
of memberships. Each church whl
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 ehur h
can get out the largest congregation
is eliminated by the “Go-to-Chur. U
Day” plans. The movement is for t»»e
benefit of all of the churches of At
lanta and for the encouragement of
the city’s religious growt .
Whole State Interested.
Committees have been appointed in
many of the churches to review ‘he
membership rolls and to see that
every person thereon receives a per
sonal invitation to attend the sen -
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-to-
Church Day” idea has struck among
the ministry that* without any spe
cial effort to spread its observance
out9ide of Atlanta this year, in many
cities of the State the movement is
belmr taken up enthusiastically, and
the day will be observed 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 year 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 be
packed to its utmost limits. Now
such a possibility seems very close to
realization.
Mrs, Crawford Will
Tell Her Own Story
On Stand Monday
Attorneys in the Crawford will
case rested Saturday preparing for
the last stretch in the famous suit,
which is expected to come to an end
next week.
Monday’s hearing will be featured
by the appearance of Mrs. Mary Belle
Crawford, the accused widow, upon
the stand. Her attorneys had planned
not to place her on the stand, but
the demand of Mrs. Crawford that
she be allowed to tell her story in
court will be complied with.

City Electrician R. C. Turner took
Aldlno 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 railed a liar,
blackguard end grafter, but smilingly
found solace in a quotation from Wil
liam Jennings Bryan.
”1 seem to have drawn Chambers’
fire at last,” ne said. "I am very
well satisfied with the situation.
“William Jennings Bryan says that
every man in public life must stand
.1 certain amount of crltlcUnn. i am
willing to stand my share.
“Mr. Chambers is unwilling, or un
able to stand his, as he retired from
public life at the last election.”
Since Electrician Turners personal
attack on him, Mr. Chambers, ex-
Councilman and attorney for the Cot
ton States Electric Company, has
dropped all mere intimations of
wrongdoing on the part of the City
Electrican and boldly accused him of
being a “blackguard, deliberate liar,
slanderer and a grafter.”
"I charge that he got $180 from the
association of electrical contractors
In November, 1912,” said Mr. Cham
bers. “That was after his election,
and could not have been a campaign
contribution.
“Wliat 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, 1 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 a. repre
sentative of the Barber Asphalt 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.”
Denver Paralyzed by
4 Feet of Snow; Many
Missing; Food Scarce
DENVER, Dec. 6. — Paralyzed com
pletely by the snow that covers the
State to a depth of from three to eight
feet, all of Colorado to-day awaited
warmer weather. In Denver, where
the snow fall had stopped, the average
depth was 45 inches.
In Denver no street cars have
moved for nearly 4S hour#. Every
hotel is crowded to capacity. School-
houses are filled with refugees who
were caught away from their homes
by the storm. The bread supply in
Denver was exhausted to-day. Be
cause of the strike which has been on
in Southern Colorado for several
weeks a coal famine threatens.
Ten shopgirls have not been heard
from since they started home Thurs
day night. Twenty-four miners are
missing near Canon City. Two stage
coaches are lost near Boulder and one
is missing near Buena Vista. It is
feared that the drivers and occupant*
have been frozen to death.

Outlines Her Ideas of Reforms
Necessary to Make Restau
rants Fit Places to Eat.
Having worked for four days a.
dish washer in a Broad street restau
rant, the first campaign of a strenu
ous and extended warfare designed to
expose the inner workings of the cul
inary departments of local eating
houses and hospital kitchens. Mrs.
Grace Macey-Keefer. the wealthy di
vorced w ife of David H. Keefer, whose
matrimonial troubles brought her
sharply before the public eye recent
ly, is overcome with horror at pre
vailing conditions.
“I have been told," she said Satur
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
army 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 I 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, "but I’m
not the ordinary uplifter. I’m trying
to strike at the root of human happ -
ness and ambition, and it lies In the
stomach. If you’re going to uplift a
man, you’ve got to upltft his stomaca
first, and you elevate his mind only
when you elevate his stomach, for
that is the source of all our em>-
tlons. ., _ ,,
May Stir Up Trouble.
"I don’t know whether I’m going .0
accomplish anything bv working in
these restaurants, hut if I can ac
complish what I’m after i’ll stir up a
lot of Lroublc for the men who own
these restaurant buildings. They are
the first people we must get after ,n
the campaign for better kitchens
They rent buildings for restaurant
purposes that are not lit to be ren .d
as stables. The walls are filled w til
nesting places for microbes ..nd in
jects and ideas of cleanliness appear
to be almost unknown. There oug_i

PU "T^rlght kind of a restaurant
should have concrete walls and a con-
erete floor and concrete tables, where
no insects and microbes can breeu.
The floors should he divided into sec
tions, with drains running through
each section, sc. that portions of 1
ran be thoroughly cleaned at any tim«
without interfering with the other
sections. .
For Restaurant Inspector.
"And after all the property owners
are put in jail and the restaurant
buildings are fitted properlyJni• re -

Mrs. Keefer says she nas not ror-
saken the ease and comfort of her
mansion on Piedmont avenue for the
sink and dish towel of the restau
rant kitchen through any desire for
notoriety, but because she is a gen
uine reformer, and has a mission to
Experts Praise Work of Atlanta Institutions as
Nearly Ideal.
Most everybody likes to watch little
children at work or play.
And maybe that’s the reason why
the fifteen little boys and girls from
the Home for the Friendless are al
ways the center of a curious throng
at the Child Welfare and Public
Health Exhibit. They are of most
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 working, al
though it doesn’t appear to be work.
The average child, if it likej? the
task given it, can make almost any
work seem like pkiy—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 its
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 he doing a great
deal of the work that i9 recommended
for the ideal home.
