ligious services next Sunday.
‘ Rev. I\ K. Sims, pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church, speaks of the
movement as an ideal one. He says:
'If we can get those who have not
been attending church services to be
present next Sunday, we can show
them how easy it is to attend. Then,
by making the services specially in
teresting, we can get them to attend
regularly.’ ”
"Rev W. R. Foote pastor of tin
First Methodist Church, and Rev. E.
B. Farrar, pastor of the Second Bap
tist Church, are others who are heart
ily in accord with the suggestion.”

goers and to those who possibly haven’t been inside their church
for the last six months or a year.
l>o yourself, your church and your city a benefit next Sun
day by celebrating “Go-to-Church Day.”
The observance of the day is very simple. All one has to
do ijs to attend the morning and evening services, adding his
presence to the record breaking throng that will be out.
You may get back into the habit of attending church regn- \
larly if you go next Sunday and become infected with the joy-
ousness and enthusiasm of the big congregations. You will feel
better for it if you do.
Leaving aside the personal feature, you will add to the ■
attendance of your church, and you will help swell the grand
total of the attendance for the whole city of Atlanta—a total
that is expected to eclipse every other record ever set in a city
of this size.
The ministers and the laitv arc determined to make next
Sunday epochal. Help them do it.
THE PLAYS
THIS WEEK
"Over the Sea” Winning.
The English melodrama ‘‘Over the
Sdu.” this week’s offering of the
Jewell Kelley company at the Bi
jou. is attracting large and enthusi
astic audk'ip'P*. Differing in styie
from most of the melodramas thxt
have been offered by the company,
the play is doubly Interesting, and
the costumes, a a well us the scenes
of the play, add to the interest of
the production. The company an
nounces for next week one of the
strongest American melodramas,
'•The Denver Express." a play that
will doubtless prove one of the most
popular In the company's repertoire.
‘ Butterfly on the Wheel.”
Few plays that have been offered
at the Lyric this season are so in
tensely interegtin*” as ‘’The Butter
fly on the Wheel” that Is scoring a
well deserved bit this week at the
Carnegie way theater. The story is
one that teaches a strong lesson,
and during Its long run in New
York received the unqualified in
dorsement of press and public. The
company, headed by Miss Eleanor
Montell, is a most capable one and
Miss Montell herself Is scoring .(
splendid hit. The stage production
is complete and the performance is
really one of the most entertaining
of the season. “The Butterfly on th
Wheel” should do excellent business
this week.
Yvette, Whirlwind, at Forsyth.
Yvette, a second Eva Tanguay, ex
cept that this one is an adept artist
on the violin, is appearing at the
Forsyth this week. This young lady
of eccentric qualities is meeting with
one of the biggest successes that any
single artist has ever met with in
Atlanta. Her whirlwind dancing in
connection with her playing and a
wonderful voice also all help to make
this an act of worth-while merit. The
Australian Boy Scouts exhibit drills,
blanket throwing and the manipula
tion of rifles in a very clever fashion,
and there Is a great deal of interest
inasmuch us this is one of the Scout
organizations. The Nichols Sisters
entertain in a Mvely way, and the
other acts are meritorlus.

Blaze Starts in “Baby Section.”
Firemen's Quick Work Saves
Leyden House Exhibit.
The Child Welfare and Public
Health Exhibit, In the old Leyden
House on Peachtree street, narrowly
escaped destruction Wednesday
morning, between 5 and 6 o'clock
when fire broke out in the ‘‘baby sec
tion” on the first floor.
Prompt work by the fire depart
ment saved the exhibit. One or two
panels and posters were scorched, and
slight damage was done to the walls
The /Ire is supposed to have started
from a defective flue. There was no
one in the building except George
Brown, the Janitor, and the night
watchman. Brown had arrived early
to build the fires. After starting the
furnace, he went to the second floor,
driectly above the room where the
• baby exhibit” is located, to sweep.
Smoke coming through the cracks
in the floor attracted his attention.
He ran dow nstairs. The "baby room.”
the second to the right as one enters
the building, was filled with smoke,
and flames were shooting out from
the walls.
Brown closed the door to prevent
air getting to the fire, and imme
diately called the fire department.
When the firemen arrived the house
was full of smoke. Hose from the
chemical tanks was run into the
building, and the fire was extin
guished.
The fire attracted considerable at
tention among the morning throngs
on Peachtree street, and several hun
dred persons gathered to watch the
blaze.
Restaurant Burns
On Decatur Street.
Fire of mysterious origin destroyed
the restaurant of S. H. Goldberg. No,
402 Deoatur street, at an early hour
Wednesday morning, causing a loss
estimated at several hundred dollars.
The building was In flames when
the fire was discovered by a passing
pedestrian, and before the fire depart
ment could arrive was burned almost
to the ground. The firemen were un
able to save the building or any of its
contents, and most of their work was
directed toward preventing the flames
from spreading to surrounding build

loons holding Federal Internal reve
nue licenses for the sale of malt or
spirituous liquors will have their city
licenses forfeited; that saloons can
not have any front screens, shades, or
stained windows; that all beverages
must be fuHy labeled; that no sa
loons will be licensed to do business
in or near residential sections or in
alleys, with the exception of one
block in one alley; that conviction in
any court for violating the prohibi
tion law or injunption by the Supe
rior Court for selling liquor will en
tail forfeiture of the city license.
The price of the license is $250, a
reduction of $50. All regulations ask
ed by the Law Enforcement League,

DALTON, Dec. 10—S. E. Berry,
Representative in the Georgia Legis
lature from Whitfield County, is dead
at his home here, following a !vvo
weeks’ illness. His death came un
expectedly, for he appeared to be
greatly improved. Valvular heart
trouble was the cause.
Mr. Berry was 60 years of age. He
is survived by his wife and six chi
dren—Mrs. M. E. Heggie. of Chatta
nooga; Mrs. Albert S. Kelly, of Bris
tol, Va.; Marvin Berry, of Calhoun
and Miss Alberta Berry and Gordon
and Sam E. Berry, Jr . of this city.
Funeral services will be conduc ea
by the Rev. W. R. Foote at the First

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.—The consumer
who buys beef ribs and loins to-day,
paying just about as much as he did
this time last year, is giving his re
taller a profit of about 25 per cent over
the profit of 1912. This Is because of
th decreased cost of meat to the re
tailer.
• Ribs and loins are being sold from
15 to 25 per cert less now than at this
time last year by the wholesale dealer
said T. E. Wilson, of Morris A Co. ‘‘The
wholesaler has reduced the price to the
retailer because there is a greater sup
ply now than within recent months. In
most cases the price has not been ac
cordingly lowered to the consumer”
Following are the prices quoted now
and in December, 1912:
1912. 1913.
No. 1 loin 28c 17 Vac
No. I ribs 25c 15c
A corresponding decrease in the
wholesale price of pork is also shown

On the charge of cheating and
swindling, A. S. Colyar was bound
over to the grand Jury under bond cf
$750 at Rome Tuesday. The direct
charges against him are that he ob
tained three notes for $750 from Mrs.
S. C. Aw trey, a wealthy resident of
Rome, under representations that a
son was in trouble, and that Colyar
could get him out of it for this
amount.
Colyar made bond at once and it as
probable that his case will be triid
next week.
