All Saturday the negro church pon-
pie ami workers were fratherin* their
forces fur the (treat effort In their
o.unpatBn for the net' T. M. A.
building for the use of the youns
men of Uieir race.
At noon the word went out:
"We are ready—and we shall win!"
The night before all the pastors of
negro churches in Atlanta met In the
old building of the negro department
Of the T. M. C. A. to arrange Beats
for their various congregations Sun
day night, when the Auditorium-Ar
mory is to be the scene of the cli
mactic effort of the campaign—the
gnat subscription by churches.
White and Jackson Speak.
W. Woods White, chairman of the
State committee of the Young Men a
Christian Association, made a spirit
ed address to the gathering, and he
was followed by Marlon M. Jackson,
president of the Atlanta association,
and John J. Eagan, one of th trus
tees.
Then the pastors spoke, detailing
the amount of space required for their
congregations, and promising the ear
nest interest of their people.
After this the committee on usn-
trs met and made their preparations
to liandle a record-breaking crowd.
At both meetings a supreme enileav ,r
was evident: a ’desire to “cin i 1
things, as it were—to “put it over,"
us one pastor phrased it.
Speaking of the prospects for the
meeting, the Rev. A i >. Williams,
chairman of 'in- committee on dis

the prospect was good for an over
flow attendance.
“We’ll do our best to handle it,” he
said, anti then, referring to tlie sin
cerity of Mr. White's ambition for the
movement, he added:
“I really believe Mr. White would '
expire from disappointment if this I
thing should fail, # but he needn’t wor
ry—we are not going to see any such
sad event happen.”
Following are some of the expres
sions heard at the pastors’ meeting.
What Pastors S»y.
Dr. E. R. Carter said: “My people’s
minds are so full of this project that
l can’t get anything else done untii
this is settled.'
"Our church is a unit on this prop
osition," said Dr. H. H. Proctor, “and
l we are going to make that unit a
I big one ”
"There’s a surging spirit in this
I movement,” said the Rev. L. H. King.
I "It must succeed. We are giving it
right of way over all else.”
Dr. Parrel insisted that it was hear-
I ine of the project A year ago that
1 made him want to come to Atlanta.
I "Our folks will be there," he prom
ised.
"We will have a huge delegation,”
i added the Rev. E. H. Oliver.
It was announced by tlie Rev. P.
James Bryant that the Rev. Dr. Mo
ses. of Knox vibe, would be at the Au-
j uitorium Sunday night. He also had
I something to say about the intense
interest with which the various con
gregations were watching the move
ment.
“All pastors who expect to remain
in Atlanta,” lie suggested, "won’t dare
do less than bring their people to the
Auditorium Sunday night.”
Institution Is Vital Need.
So far as the need for the Y. M. C.
| A. ift concerned, there Is no doubt that
the negro churchmen of the city, and
j most of the people, are wholly con
vinced that the institution is the most
vital need of the negro people of At-
: lanta just now.

Keeps complexions
clear and healthy
An address by Colonel Frederic J
Paxon, of Atlanta, on the necessity of
patronizing home industries and the |
part the hotel men can play in the
development of a city was scheduled
as one of the features of the Sat
urday morning session of the seventh
annual convention of the Georgia.
Hotel Men’s Association, in sesaiou
at the Kimball House.
OthA* speakers on the morning
program include J. K. Blatchford, • f
Chicago, secretary of the American
Hotel Protective Association; Ben F.
Branham, of Chicago, publisher of
The Hotel Bulletih; Alfred Lamborn,
president of the Rocky Mountain Ho
tel Men’s Association, of Estes Park.
Colo., and Colonel John F. Hobbs, of
New York, publisher of The Caterer.
Vigorous opposition to the six ho
tel-regulating bills pending in the
State Legislature developed at the
Friday afternoon session of the con
vention, and a campaign to defeat
them was started. It Is probable th.it
every hotel man in Georgia will work
against the bills between now and the
next session of the Legislature, and
the indications are they will be killed
and a substitute offered.
Special Committee Named.
The fight against the bills and iIn-
drafting of the new law is in the
hands of a special committee of trav
eling men and hotel proprietors ap
pointed yesterday, which was given
unlimited power to act on behalf of
the association.
The hotel men were emphatic in
their statements Friday that they do j
not oppose laws for the regulation of
hotels, but they welcome them. They
insist, however, that these laws shali
be reasonable and not add to the bur
dens they claim the hotel men, espe
cially of the $mall towns, already are
forced to bear.
There is some feature of each of the
six bills that is objectionable to hotel
and traveling men. It is on these
features that the light will be basc-u.
One of the bills provides for a tax
on every hotel in Georgia, and this
bill met with more strenuous oppo
sition than any of the others. J. G
Jeffcoat, of Ashburn, Ga., declare**
such a tax would be burdensome to
the smaller hotel owners, as the ex
penses of operating are so great that
any additional expense would practi
cally destroy the small remaining
profit.
Zimmer for Inspector.
The substitute -bill which will be
drafted by the special committee and
Dee Jordan, attorney for the asso
ciation. will provide for the appoint
ment of a State hotel inspector, as
the majority of hotel men seem to
favor this idea.
A boom for Will V. Zimmer, former
manager of the Kimball House ami
owner <>f Kimballville Farm, for this
post has been started, and it is under
stood he will seek the place if the bill
passes the Legislature.
The discussion of needed legisla
tion Friday was led by Mr. Jordan
Others who spoke were Mareellus M.
Anderson, of the Travelers’ Protec
tive Association: H. D. Shackelford,
of the United Commercial Travelers,
and W. S. Lounsbury, of the Georgia
Travelers’ Association. Many of the
members of the association took part
In the general discussion.
H. N. Dutton, manager of the Pied
mont Hotel, was host to the visiting
hotel men with a Dutch lunch end
smoker in the banquet hall of his ho
tel Friday night. Although a number
of the men who were on the program
were unable to attend the meeting,
there were others who took their
places and made strikin'* addresses.
School for Employees.
Jacob Miller, president of the In
ternational Stewards’ Association,
told of the establishment of a hotel
employees’ training school at Muncie,
lnd. Will V. Zimmer Indorsed th a
movement and spoke at length on
the benefits that would accrue to
American hotels from such a school.
Fred Houser, secretary of the asso
ciation. spoke on the Southeastern
greeters' movement.
Two Atlanta men were honored in
the annual election of officers at Fri
day’s session. H. N. Duttbn, of th* 1
Piedmont, war, chosen first vice pres
ident, and J. F. Letton, of the Ans-
I ley. was named second vice presi-
I dent.

r HEN you wash your face do you realize that it is
not enough to remove the dirt--that your skin
needs a soothing, healing influence to keep your com
plexion fresh and free from blemish?
IJ Ordinary toilet soaps do not assert this influence.
Many of them contain free alkali which tends to dry
the skin and destroy its delicate texture. Even the
best of such soaps can only clean, they cannot heal and
protect the skin. Resinol Soap, besides being an abso
lutely pure toilet soap, contains the same soothing,
healing, antiseptic balsams as Resinol Ointment, the
value of which in the treatment of skin affections is
*~known throughout the medical profession.
C That is why Resinol Soap does for the skin what cos
metics are supposed to do—it insures not only a clean
skin, but a healthy skin, and a fair, clear complexion.

Everybody «*ems to be interested in
this question of gift giving between
husband and wife The letters -it**
Just rolling in. I really fenl sorry for
the office boy who brings in the mall
from the post office every day. He
certainly has his two haiu ~ full!
Letters are coming to me from all
over Georgia. And some of them con
tain just splendid ideas. To my mind,
one of the best ideas advanced in
several days came this morning in an
unsigned communication. Usually I
pay no attention to such letters, but
this one was so good that I am pub
lishing it anyway, because I am sure
th*- suggestion it contains will be of
benefit to »>me of our readers. Wish
I knew’ who wrote it.
The other day a note of complaint
crept into my Httle talk, T wondered
why I was not receiving many lettets
from the men. Well, they are r?-
sponding nobly now. Every mail
brings me letters from husbands who
have already decided what presents
they are going to give their wives. J
like to h*-ar from them.
Just to encourage others to write,
let me repeat my offer:
To the wife \rho writes the bent
short tetter tellinf/ tchat is the
most useful gift for a husband, one
$10 gold piece.
Three awards of $5 each will
be gievn the wires whose letters
are adjudged the nc.rl best.
Also, I will award the same
prizes to husbands who write brief
letters outlining the most appro
priate gift for a husband to give
his wife. For the husband's letter
that is adjudged the best the writer
will receive a $10 gold piece. Hus
bands who write the three ne.rt best
letters will receive, each, a $5 gold
piece for their thoroughness.
Send pour letters addressed to

lan t a Georgian.
Here are letters which were re
ceived to-day:
WHAT HE NEEDS MOST.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
The most useful gift for a hus
band is something he needs most.
If he belongs to an order, a pin,
ring or other jewelry with the
emblem of his order is nice.
MRS. S. B. D.
Covington, Ga.
PLENTY FOR HIM.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
I think a nice present for a hus
band would be a shaving set, a
good dinner on Christmas Day
and invite his friends and yours
also. Tell him you love him
more on that day than ever before
and hope as the y roll by
you will love him more and more.
Prepare him a good meal each
day in the new year, 1914.
MRS. J. A. S.
Marietta, Ga.
SOMETHING USEFUL.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
As my husband is a poor man
and works hard I think the most
sensible present 1 could make him
would be some kind of useful
wearing apparel and a promise
of a lifelong love and devotion.
MRS. G. C. H.
Cowpens, S. C.
A HOLIDAY DINNER.
Miss Mary Lea Davis.
I think the most enjoyable and
appreciated Christmas gift for
husband would be a real nice
Christmas dinner and three nice
ly cooked meals a day the year
round and a happy home with
The Georgian to read on even
ings. MRS. M. L. W.
Kirkwood. Ga.
IN HIS STOCKINGS.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
I When my husband takes down
his stockings Christmas morning
they will be full to the top. There*
will be apples, oranges, raisins,
nuts and some filled cookies and
home-made candies, and right
down in the toe will be a beautiful
hand-knitted tie (four-in-hand
scarf) of white san silk. He will
show his appreciation bv a big old
hug and kiss. We have been
married 27 years. MRS. O. A. B.
Adairsville. Ga.
KEEP IT UP. OF COURSE.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
if a husband has an apprecia
tive wife, he could please her
with some real money, according
to his circumstances, supplement
ed by a kiss Christmas morning, a
cheerful disposition all the day.
and—why not keep it up until
the next Christmas?
L. A. W.
Chattanooga, Tenn.
HOW TO CHOOSE GIFT.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
Choose a gift for husband which
means love and some sacrifice of
time, or money, or thought, or
labor, which will give pleasure
and satisfaction. Cut the gar
ment to fit the cloth. A. J.
Ruckhead, Ga.
A COAT r.ACK.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
I think a coat rack covered
with ribbon would be an appro
priate gift for my husband,
Rome, Ga. N. C.
MONEY FOR WIFE.
Miss Mary Lea Davis: %
The best and most appreciated
gift from husband to wife, as I
view it. is "as much money, cash,
ten days before Christmas as he
can spare, and ccompany it with
any simple useful article the wife
may need. Most wives. I think,
feel cramped to call on their
husbands for money t •> buy
< 'hristmas presents, and good hus
bands ought to anticipate this and
give them such money. J. A. D.
Atlanta, Ga.
THE PRIZE MONE v
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
My husband says the thing he
wants me to give him is the $10
gold piece you offer in this con-
;est. Please do not let ipe dis
appoint him! MRS. D. 4G. D.
Atlanta, Gu.
MAKE HIS PRESENT.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
As I am not financially able to
give my husband an expensive
Christmas present, and don t think
it quite right for me to purchase
and him to pay for his own present.
I will mention the very simple and
inexpensive tie ring and glove case
I have* planned for him. For the tie
ring i used red ribbon and a small
embroidery hoop. I wrapped the
hoop, leaving a fluffy bow on each
side and about 10 inches of ribbon
from one bow to the other to hang
it by. For the glove case. I used
two shades of gre^n velvet and a
piece of cardboard about 4 inches
wide and 10 inches long. I cut the
velvet twice as wide as the card
board and sewed the two shades to
gether, slipping the cardboard be
tween the two plys of velvet, feud
ed the other side over and fastened
it with two boys of ribbon, turned
the top corner hack and tacked it.
making an opening at the top and
bottom, so the- gloves can be easily
slipped in and out. These are very
simple but I am sure he will be
glad to take the will for the deed.
MRS. S. M
Marietta, Ga.
HIS PROMISE.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
I shall give my wife on Christ
mas morning my promise and assur
ance that I will not visit any clubs,
neither shall I drink a drop of in
toxicating drinks for three hundred
and sixty-five days. Neither shall
I go out at night, unless she be with
me. and I will devote my time look
ing to the welfare of my home, and
1 am sure she will be happy.
Rome, Ga. _ / J. H. H.
DON’T LET HIM PAY.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
Always give a husband something
useful. A nice box of shirts made
by yourself, with gold Foliar but
tons. cuff links and tie holder,
makes a very useful gift. If you
care to you may add ties, collars
and socks, but men seldom like ties
a woman chooses. Whatever it
may be, never let him have to set
tle the bill. «L K.
Buford, Ga.
CHEAP. BUT HAS THE SPIRIT.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
This year I have made my hus
band a silk crazywork cushion and
bead rest for his easy chair, an ein- *
broidered tie, a tie holder and coat
hanger. The tie holder was an old
embroidery hoop ami the coat hang
er was purchased for a few cents.
1 covered them with pale blue rib
bon, shirred on. The total cost of
all in money was the princely sum
of J'j cents. It is the spirit in which
you give anything that counts, not
the money value that makes it ap
preciated. MRS. J. A. S.
Gainesville, Ga.
HER IDEA.
Miss Mary I^ea Davis:
A gift is appreciated by a hus
band when he knows that the giver
made the money by her own hands
by which it was purchased. If he
needs it, an easy chair is an ap
propriate gift, where he can rest
when his day’s work is over, and
read a good daily paper like The
Georgian. MRS. H. E. H.
Gainesville, Ga.
MOST USEFUL GIFT.
Miss Mary I.«ea Davis:
The most useful gift a wife can
give her husband would be a year’s
subscription to The Georgian, from
which, at the close of each day. he
can enjoy rest and diversion in
gaining the current news and all
the benefits therefrom by the pe
rusal of a clean and up-to-date pa
per which stands for high ideal and
right principles in- all things. And
that is what 1 shall give my hus
band for a Christinas gift.

Girls’ Colleges Follow Lead of
Atlanta High Schools in
Money-Raising Plans.
The students and faculty of the
Hoys’ and Girls’ High Schools have
been joined by the boys and girls
of other Atlanta schools in their work
for the Oglethorpe University fund.
Following the announcement of
substantial subscriptions from the
Girls’ High School, and the $500 prom
ised by the boys, comes the gratifying
news that Tech High School, the
Georgia Milftary Academy, Agnes
Scott College and Cox College are
planning to raise money for the fund.
All of the schools are collecting
subscriptions, the boys and girls hav
ing turned themselves into volun
teer soliciting committees, and sev
eral large amounts probably will be
turned in- at a meeting of the gen
eral committee within a few days.
It is probable that some of the
girls’ schools will give show’s and en
tertainments to add to their part of
the fund.
The private schools started to work
on the project at the solicitation of
Joel Hunter’s committee, Mr. Hunter
held a conference recently with the
school heads and the more influential
of the pupils, and found vast enthu
siasm prevailing. The proposition
was then taken up with the student
body of the different schools, and the
work was started at once.

Some Genuine Singing by Young
sters Enthuses Listeners—Col
ored People Aroused.
Quaint old negro melodies quavered
through the rooms and halls of the
old house at No. 198 Peachtree street
Saturday morning as the children
from the Gate City Free Kindergar
ten No. 1 stood and sang and sang
to a doorway packed with interested
faces—w’hite faces.
They sang some little hymns, first,
and then something to an old, old
romantic air—“Believe me, if all those
enduring young charms ”
You know. Also “Fair Harvard'*
and 6ther memories in the air.
And they did sing it, those kids.
Something about the unerring awing
and rhythm, and the involuntary and
unctuous sympathy with the minors,
crept into the singing as it never
seems to dwell in that of w’hite chil
dren.
And then they sang some regular
old-timers:
"The blood has signed my name,”
and “Mother's children will have i
hard time w’hen mother is dead.”
There was the real African swing
and sway and chant, and the odd lit
tle haunting minors on which at least
one great authority has said our tru<
American music w’ill be based, if
American music ever attains a place
jof its own.
The little heads swayed in perfect
time; the little brown faces wore ear
nest and smiling at the same mo
ment; and the pipin'- voices rose and
fell and negotiated passages of a soil
of natural syncopation that never
could be taught to children in whose
blood it wasn’t jumping from gen
erations gone by.
Some of the real ragtime, there;
and some of the little sliding caden
zas found only in the older negro
melodies.
All through the building a great
crowd of Atlanta’s negroes and school
children moved from room to room
and listened to able explanations ol
the exhibits by negro teachers, an!
made notes, and were quiet and at
tentive, and appeared generally to he
making the most of what they con
sidered a big and serious opportu
nity.
"It is most gratifying, the way
these people absorb ideas.” Miss Bab
bitt said. "All Friday and to-day 1
have constantly surprised myself, be
ing really touched by the intere-t
they show’ and by the numbers who
come to see the exhibit. The colored
people of Atlanta certainly are doing
all they can to improve themselves
and their condition.”

is a long way, but it’s the startling step which will be taken by

The Sunday American
which in its way covers as wide a range as will the activities of
this noted society matron. The whole world has been searched

Loveless Royal Marriages the Price of Balkan Peace,
The One Cent Lunch New York Children Get.
How Science Is Making Mad Dogs Less Dangerous.
Surprising Facts About the Liquor Business.
Governor Explains Why Whipping Prevents Crime.
Why We Behave Better on Cloudy or Smoky Days.
Madame Cavalieri’s Beauty Secrets.
The Lure of the Midwinter Furs.
