To the Citizens of Atlanta:
Co/ some time an active cam

I‘ will culminate to-morrow night

of negro help of all kinds, as far
as possible, arrange that their help
may have the opportunity to at
tend this meeting and also the
rally t<» be held in their churches

the prospect was good for an over-
j flow attendance
“We’ll do our best to handle it,” he
said, and then, referring to the sin
cerity of Mr. White’s ambition for the
movement, he added:
"I really believe Mr. White would
expire from disappointment if this
thing should fall, but he needn’t wor
ry—we are not going to see any *wih
Bad event happen."
Following are .some of the expres-
| sions heard at the pastors’ meeting:
What Pastors Say.
Dr. E. R. Carter said: “My people’s
minds are so full of this project, that
I can’t get anything else done until
this is settled."
"Our church Is a unit on this prop
osition," said Dr. H. H. Proctor, "and
we are going to make that unit a
big one.”
"There’s a surging spirit in this
movement." said the Rev. L. H. King.
“It must succeed. We are giving it
right of way over all else."
Dr. Farrel insisted that it was hear
ing of the project a year ago that
made him want to come to Atlanta.
"Our folks will be there,” he prom
ised.
"We will have a huge delegation,”
added the Rev. E. H. Oliver.
It was announced by the Rev. P.
James Bryant that the Rev. Dr. Mo-
sea* of Knoxville, would be at the Au
ditorium Sunday night. He also had
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," he 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. is concerned, there is no doubt that
the negro churchmen of the city, and
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
W 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?
<| 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.
That ia 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.

EXCELLENT GIFT
IDEAS SENT FROM
ALL OVER STATE
By MARY LEA DAVIS.
Everybody seems fo he Interested in
this question of gift giving between
husband and wife The letters are
Just rolling in. I really feel sorry for
the office boy who brings in the mail
from the poatofflee every day He
certainly has his two ham - 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 T am sure
the suggestion It contains will he of
benefit to some of our readers. Wish
I knew who wrote it.
The other day a note of complain’
crept into my little talk. T wondered
why I was not receiving many letters
from the men. Well, they are re
sponding nobly now. Every mail
brings me letters from husbands who
have already decided what present
they are going to give their wives. I
like to hear from them.
Just to encourage others to write,
let me Repeat m.v offer:
To the wife who writes the bent
short letter telling what is the
most useful gift for n husband, one
$10 gold piece.
Three awards of $5 each will
be gievn the wives whose letters
are adjudged the next best.
Also, 1 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 next best
letters wilt receive, each, a $5 gold
piece for their thoroughness.

MARY LEA DA VIS,

lanta 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 years 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 I could make him
would be some kind of useful
wearing apparel and a promise
of a lifelong love and devotion.
MRS. G. C. H.
Cow pens, 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:
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.
Buckhead. Ga.
A COAT RACK.
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.
Mis* Mary I^ea Davis:
The beet 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
EASIEST GIFT TO BUY.
The best gift Is the one that gives
the greatest amount of real pleasure.
Father and mother sure deserve this
gift. Get them a solid gold pair of
glasses in a handsome gift case. Se
lect the frames and case now’ and
we will fit the correct lenses after the
holidays without extra charge. A. K.

may need. Most wives, T think,
feel cramped to call on their
husbands for money to buy
Christmas presents, and good hus
bands ought to anticipate this and
give them such money. J. A. D.
Atlanta, Ga.
THE PRIZE MON E'
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
My husband says the thing he
wants me to give him is the $10
gold piece you offer in tills con
test. Please do not let me dis
appoint him! MRS. D. G. D.
Atlanta, Ga.
MAKE HIS PRESENT.
Miss Mary l^ea Davis:
As 1 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
1 have planned for him. For the tie
ring 1 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
if by. For the glove case. I used
two shades • f green velvet ami a
piece of cardboard about 4 Inches
wide and 10 inches long. T 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, fold
ed the other side over and fastened
it with two boys of ribbon, turned
the top corner back Rnd 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
1 go out at night unless she be with
me, and 1 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 collar 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. J. K.
Buford, Ga.
CHEAP, BUT HAS THE SPIRIT.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
This year 1 have 'made my hus
band a silk erazywork cushion and
head rest for his easy chair, an em
broidered tie. a tie holder and coat
hanger. The tie holder was an old
embroidery hoop and the coat hang
er was purchased for a few cents.
I covered them with pale blue rib
bon. shirred on. The total cost of
all in money was the princely sum
of 49 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 Lea 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 I shall give my hus
band for a Christiuas gift.

Fifty visiting hotel men and half as

The addre.ss of Mr. Paxon was of
particular interest in view of the ten

the consumption of Atlanta and
Georgia products, and the visiting bo

doctrine might be turned to account
in their own cities.
At 1:30 o'clock the hotel men ad

Pure Candy Good
Food, Experts Say
Good candy is good food for
children, according to demonstra
tors at the Child Welfare Show
Pure food laws and regulations
have evolved a healthful type of
coloring for candies
All good manufacturers use this
type of coloring, which is certified
by the Department of Agriculture.
The go>J manufacturers also are
working hard through their asso
ciation to complete the work of
wiping out the use of harmful coal
tar coloring products by un
scrupulous manufacturers.
Their efforts, combined with the
effects of the law. have made col
ored candy practically as healthful
as white candy.

Saturday morning as the chiirtr.„
from the Gate City Free Klndere-? *
ten No. 1 stood and sang and san»
to a doorway packed with interest^
faces—white face*.
They sang some little hymn*. nrs*
and then something to an old 0 u
romantic air—"Believe me, if an thow
endearing young charms "
You know. Also "Fair Harvard" . \
and other memories in the air.
And they did sing It, those kit.
Something about the unerring swini
and rhythm, and the involuntary and
unctuous sympathy with the minor*
crept Into the singing as It never
seems to dwell in that of white chil
dren.
And then they sang some regular
old-timers:
"The blood has signed my name '
and "Mother's children will have a
hard time when mother Is dead.”
There was the real African swine
and sway and chant, and the odd lit- ^
tie haunting minors on which at least

American music will be. based. If
American music ever attains a piace
Jof Its own.
The little heads swayed In perfect
time; the little brown faces were ear
nest and smiling at the same mo
ment; and the piping voloes rose an I
fell and negotiated passages of a air:
of natural syncopation that never
could be taught to children in whose

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 ot
the exhibits by negro teachers, and
made notes, and were quiet and at
tentive, and appeared generally to ha
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 realty touched by the Interest
they show' and by the numbers who
come to see the exhibit. The color*!
people of Atlanta certainly are doing
all they can to improve themselves
and their condition.”
