Mr. f'olllns are merely examples of what is going on all over the city in the concerted ef fort to bring about a striking demon stration* of the strength of religion and the church in Atlanta. Pastors have preached sermons on the movement and what it means to the growth of the church and a re vived interest in religious things; they have made repeated announce-j observed merits of the date and extended re peated and insistent invitations from their pulpits. In addition, they have appointed committees to issue per sonal invitations to every one on the membership rolls and to others not affiliated with any church. Most of the ministers have devoted a great deal of their time toward making the day one of the greatest in the life of the church here. So great have been the indications of a mag nltlccnt success that they already are contemplating the inauguration of a St ate-wide movement for next year. Suggestions for Ministers. Here are some suggestions to the ministers, compliance with which will facilitate the compilation of the fig ures on the Go-to-Church Day at tendance: Have a thorough count made of your congregations at morning and evening service next Sunday. Enter the total figures on. one of the return post cards that have been sent all the churches in the city. Mail immediately after evening ser vices. if, for any reason, you have not re ceived one of the cards, send in your report on an ordinary postal, noting (1) name of the church, (2) name of the pastor, (3) total attendance for the day, (4) average or normal Sun day attendance.

U.S.toFind Out Age Of This Continent “Fine Feathers,” the much her- • aided, was seen fr the first time in At lanta Thursday night, and the pro duction of the gloom-ridden play lived up fully to the enthusiastic trumpetlngs which preceded it. The acting Is netter than the play. That’s not an original comment. Nearly every member of the big audi ence which tiled out of the Atlanta Theater Thursday night made the re mark, in some form. "Fine Feathers.” like many anothei play of recent years, deals with the tragedy resultant upon mad efforts of the salaried man and his wife to catch stride with the rich. Not a new theme, but handled with a “punch.” Wilton Lackaye’s work is a little Mrs. Reynolds, the wife whose perceptions of right and wrong are beclouded by her desire for wealth. She was a lit- tle nervous, but is a good actress, REDUCING SUGAR IN DIABETES To prove that siiKar .-an be reduce,; In many oases of Diabetes in peopU past fifty we will mall on request for mula for quantitative test for sugar that will show the percentage from day to day.

Lydia Dickson appeared as Frieda, the mai l. “Frieda" has been built up j into a considerable role (goodness knows some, comedy is welcome in this depressing play), and Miss Dick son's work was thoroughly appre ciated. both for itself and also be cause the audience, Its nerves taut, welcomed the chance to laugh. Rose Coghlgn was splendid in a role that does not do her justice. Max Figman, in the earlier scenes, was not at his ease. The imaginative con jectured some hitch in things "off stage." which may have been, after all, just imagination. His was a su perfluous role at best, having nttm to do with the action of the play. He made a breezy newspaper man, but was never quite in the picture. Robert Edeson is very much the same. _ ••I liked him so much in ‘Strong- heart,’ ” gushed one pretty young thing as the curtain fell—and her emphasis was on “Strungheart.” HOLIDAYS BEGIN DEC. 23.

It is a positive pleasure to announce the return engagement of little Emma Bunting next week at the Lyric. In the selection of next week's play Miss Hunting certainly has been most for tunate, as in the title role of the ‘Girl from Out Yonder," the part of Flotsam must have been written es pecially for Miss Bunting, so well does she fit the role.
