For the first time perhaps In the
history of the city, Atlanta mothers
are being given an opportunity to
have their babies examined free of
charge by competent physicians at
the Child Welfare Exhibition
The work is being done by mem
bers of the Philton County Medical
Society, which numbers among Its
members the most prominent doctors
of Atlanta. They have donated their
services to the management of the
show, and are working in relays, half
a dozen of the physicians being on
hand each day to examine the chil
dren.
The health conference is attracting
more attention than any other de
partment of the show. More than a
hundred children have been exam
ined since the shpw opened, and the
number is increasing every day.
“The greatest trouble with the
average mother,” said one of the doc
tors Monday, “is that she never learns
what Is the matter with her child
until it is too late. Babies should be
examined often, because there are
many diseases that get a foothold in
a child’s body and are not apparent
to any but the trained eye and mind
until it is too late to cure them.

A Sale of Fine Linens

As timely as the temperature of this fine December day.
The festivities of Christmas are right before us, and whose gift

And the tendency of linen prices is upward.
We have temporarily checked it. We have effectively lowered

The sale is an opportunity.
Linens you would be proud to own or to give, the embroidery
of the Madeira pieces is as dainty as comes from the little Island
of Embroiderers; the Cluny laces are rich, heavy, all-linen, the kind
to hand dow T n from one generation to another.

It followed her to Chamberlin
To see the wondrous sight,
The toys and dolls and pretty things
That make the Christmas bright.
The lion roared, the big bear growled
And hugged the lamb—it died.
Poor Mary cried, a little bit,
Until a doll she spied. •' 7
Now dolly goes to school with her.
And teacher does not scold.
But smiles the sweetest, kindest smile
And tells of dolls of old.
No little lamb to play with now,
And Mary does not ears.
But says she thinks ’twas very mean
Of that old grizzly bear.
