Cooks Quit Kitchens To Discuss Atlanta's
‘Emancipation’ Day New Sewage System
New Buildings Ready Soon After
January 1, but Leases on Broad
Street Houses Continue.
dozen—maybe thirteen -produce
rms ;iro to move off South Broad
.street soon after the first of the year,
nd there is a good deal of wonder a*
to what sort of district that busy sen-
tion will develop next, after the pro
duce men have taken up their new
stations along Produce row, between
Washington street and Central ave
nue.
'Hie sixteen buildings -three sto
ries. elevators, done in concrete—
won t be ready by January 1, it seems.
But they will be ready as* soon there- j
after as possible, and when they are >
ready the produce men will have to j
start paying rent on their reserva
tions, whether they move in or not.
That rather complicates things.
Some of the leases on the present
stands run eight months into 1914. >
Some of them run longer. Some of !
the produce men have leases that will j
run two or three years
Hard to Sublet Stores.
Just now they are trying to subl*t
the stores.
"But it’s a tough job." one produce
dealer said Saturday. "These buildings
are not in good shape. 1 don’t see
what sort of business aside from ours
could be carried on in them."
There is an idea, fairly prevalent, |
that the owners o f the present pro
duce stands will eventually put up
handsome and substantial buildings
and strive to make South Broad street
a big retail thoroughfare, on the
Whitehall street plan. But whether
they will start .his work before the
present leases expire—-that is anoth-
er question, and one the owners are
not disposed to discuss freely.
The produce men are engagfed just
now in trying to settle on a date when
they could move In a body.
Large Firms Involved.
"I understand the new ‘row’ won't ;
be ready for occupancy before March
I." said one dealer. "My idea is that
1 ! the boys ought to go together:
there’s no system in splitting up the •
territory, as would be the case if they !
moved a few at a time. Personally, j
Id rather pay rent at the new plate
ifter it is ready and stay on here
until the bunch goes. My lease runs
until next fall.” %
The produce men involved in the
prospective move are McCullough
Bros., tlie Williams-Thompson Com
pany, Bell Bros., Baisden & Co., the
Gailmand-Cheves Company, the
Barnes-Fain Company, the Fidelity
Fruit and Produce Company, A. Fu-
gazzi, the Southern Produce Compa
ny. Wigt. Davis & Co., the McMillan
Produce Company, Conley & Ennis,
Porter Bros, and West Bros.
Among the property owners are
Frank Coker. Mrs. John Brooinhead,
the Murphy estate, John Dickey, Jr.,
Alverson Bros, and the Gftis Ryan es
tate.
And So Five Will Have Charge of
Sunday School at the Cen
tral Baptist.
The church can no longer be run
by women, children ami faddists, li
must have the sympathetic co-opera-
lion of the business men or it will
gradual h fail it will go into bank
ruptcy.
J he Sunday school is an institu
tion not only for the children, but for
meii, and men of ability.
Systematic newspaper advertising
for a church is the best method for
increasing the scope of it<* influence
In these words the Rev. Dr «'aleb
A. Ridley, pastor or the Central Bap-
11st Church, epitomized his experi
ence of fifteen years as a minister
He was discussing the selection of
five business men to he in charge of
the Central Baptist Sunday school.
These were J. \\ Autrey of the
Barclay «& Brandon »’o superintend -
en *; J. « Harrison a traveling man.
H. D. Sorrells, an insurance man; K
I^ # howler, of : ite -Index Publishing
1 ompany, and F L. Irwin, of the
J. M. High < \, . heads of the hoy >
and girls departments, respectively.
They are all busines* men.” said
Dr. Ridley, "and 1 am glad of it. be
cause the work of t)ie business men
in the church or Sunday school is
the work that produces results More
men of this caliber ?hoti!<i realize
that they have a vitai part to plav
qn the uplift or dow nfall of the church.
If they stand by it, it will rise to tin-
heights. -if they neglect it. it wil
sink to the fjeoLu.nr and disintegrate.
Pile a.\ne methods of business
employed by the bank or any other
biiHiness institution are applicable to
the Sunday school, and if news
paper advertising does a hank good
it will aid the Sunda\ school. i
heartily favor its use
"Owing to business methods my
church has grown from 127V members
in the Iasi seventeen months to 92o.
and our Sunday school now has 5 On
members where it formerlx had less
I than loo."

What Is a Broken Heart Worth?
The Baroness Ursula demands $2,500,000 from St. Louis millionaire for hers,
but the record price fora heart is $250,000, which Daisy Markham got, and the high
est price ever paid for a whole life is only $60,000.

"Within the Law” Closes To-night.
The Atlanta public has but two
more chances to see the smashing big j
hit, "Within the Law.” it will be |
given at a matinee this afternoon
while the last performance will be
olayed to-night. The matinee is at
2:30 o’clock. The play has more
thrills th- any presented here in
many years and all Atlanta is ap
plauding it.
"The Blue Bird” Next Week.
The new theater production of Mae
terlinck's "The Blue Bird," a treat
that has been long expected, will be
the holiday offering at the Atlanta
Thursday (New Year's Day* and Sat
urday. The theme of the play is the
pursuit of happiness, tvoipfied by lit
tle Tyltyl and Mytyl’s search for the
elusive Blue Bird. The poet carries
the boy and through many splen
did scenes, through regions of despair
and up to th very gate of Heaven it
self, till returning - last they find
the object of their search in their
cottage home. A performance of ex
traordinary arHeMc* merit an d charm
is said 19 be • «ured.
‘'Slave of the Mill.”
It is promised that the biggest suc
cess of the stock season will be put
t*n next week at the Bijou by the
Jewell Kellev Stock Company, when
"A Slave in the Mill” will be given its
first performance at this house. While
strongly dramatic and sensational in
some of its features, the characters
df the play are such as one would
meet in everyday life, and the story
so human in the telling that one is
said almost to forget that it is only
<*n the stage.

250 FROM MILLS
Poor Children Are Guests of Little
Folks at the First Methodist
Church.
To-day 250 poor children of At
lanta are wondering if tHe "white
Christmas" given to them Friday by |
the children of the First Methodist
Church was a dream. But then they
have toys and other gifts to testify
to its reality.
The First Methodist children are
correspondingly happy over the suc
cess of their novel entertainment,
which was the first -of its kind in At
lanta. Each child was a "personal
Santa” to some less_ fortunate little
brother or sister from the mill dis
trict, and they enjoyed their roles as
much as their guests.
The "white Christmas" is symboli
cal of an ancient legend in which all
the people bring white gifts to the
King or Chfist Child. The lecture,
room of the church, in which the en- I
tertainment was given carried out the
idea, being decorated in cotton, which
gave a snowy effect.
Several Christinas trees were cov- |
ered with silver tinsel. Incandescent
lights among the decorations made
the scene brilliant.
The children from the Sheltering}
Arms, the Atlanta Woolen Mills and
the Fulton Bag and Cotton Mills oc
cupied chairs, while the Sunday school
children sat on the floor. All joined
in carols, after- which “The Story of
Christ” was read by Dr. \Y. W. Mem- -
minger, pastor of All Saints Church.
The little hosts and hostesses then
distributed well-filled stockings to the
poor children and served them with
refreshments’.
The "w hite Christmas’ lasted from I
3 o’clock to 5.
