ATTENDANCE EXPECTED
Sunday you will go to church.
In addition to the eternal reason for
devotion on the Sabbath, there will be
the added reason this next Sunday
that every effort will be made by cler
gymen, church organizations, consis
tent members, and even occasional
churchgoers, to get every man, wom
an and child in Atlanta who is able to
brave the weather to church serv
ices.
Sunday is Go-to-Church Sunday, a
day set apart by the ministers of At
lanta for a cali to everybody in the
city to come to church.
Go-to-Church Sunday was estab
lished last year .when The Atlanta
Georgian first projected the idea that
even the most hardened stay-at-
horpes could be persuaded to go to
church at least once a year, and that a
day set apart for their reception might
prove effectual in bringing them out
in concert.
Great Crowds Turned Out.
The plan was tried. The Atlanta
Georgian obtained indorsements from
many clefgymen of the city, and a
certain Sunday in December was
named as “Go-to-Church” Sunday.
And it seemed that the churches
were filled as they rarely were before.
Many people came who entered then
into a church for the first time in
years.
There were boys who were accus
tomed to stay away from church
through sheer carelessness and
thoughtlessness. Older men, forget
ful and hardened, who had not gone
to church in a long time, found them
selves, almost involuntarily, listening
to vigorous sermons—for preachers
preached on that Sunday, it is record
ed, with an unusual fire and appeal,
because sitting out there among the
ninety and nine faithful was the one
stray sheep who must be reached.
Permanency Seems Assured.
And altogether the day was suc
cessful, so successful that the Evan
gelical Ministers’ Association of At
lanta voted to make "Go-to-Church”
Sunday an annual institution.
January 3. 1915, was selected as the
next day for w’hich the appeal would
be made that every other Interest and
inclination be laid aside and every
person in Atlanta go to church.
If the occasion this year proves as
successful as it did last year, then it
is a certainty that “Go-to-Church”
Sunday will be a permanent institu
tion in Atlanta, to be observed forever
and ever.
Atlanta ministers in many instances
are very ready to announce their be
lief that some of the men and women
who went to church on the last “Go-
to-Church” Sunday have become
steady and faithful worshipers
It is because the day offers a glow
ing opportunity for reaching the stay-
at-homes and making of them devoted
church workers that ministers every
where have proved so eager to indorse
it.
Spread to Other Cities.
The “Go-to-Church” Sunday plan
has been tried in other cities, and
with remarkable success in every in
stance. Following The Atlanta Geor
gian’s earnest campaign last year and
the success which marked it, news
papers and church organizations in a
number of cities, notably in the West
and Middle West, wrote requesting in
formation concerning details of the
campaign.
The details were supplied—very
simple details fjiey were, being merely
a poignant appeal to the hearts and
Consciences of the public to give at
least one day to devotions
But these same simple details of
campaign have proved wonderfully ef
fective, and Atlanta ministers are
looking for a repetition of last year’s
remarkable “Go-to-Church” Day next
Sunday.
War Record of Old
Negro Wins Release j
On Charge of Theft
Henry Greer, slavery time negro and
bodyguard of General James B. Long-
street and General Braxton Bragg In
the Civil War, Tuesday was more than
ever convinced that the world owes
him a living. He said as much to Re
corder Johnson in Police Court Mon
day afternoon, and the Recorder
agreed with him.
Henry was charged with stealing
coal from a coal yard at No. 536 High
land avenue.
“Why did you steal that coal, Hen
ry?’’ the judge asked.
“I ain’t stole it, jedge; I jes’ tuk it,”
was Henry’s reply. “It was that er
freeze to death, an’ you would er done
de same.”
In view of Henry’s war record and
his plausible story, he was released.
He also told how he fought at Chicka-
xnauga and on the way to Atlanta
marched through Piedmont Valley.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 29.—Repre
sentative Mann, of Illinois, minority
leader in the House, to-day started
the Republican campaign for tariff
reform in 1916^ when he introduced
in the House a bill creating a tariff
commission.
The measure, which will have the
support of practically all Republicans
in Congress, provides for a board of
five members. This board is empow
ered to make inquiries and report to
Congress on the subject of revenue
laws. One member is to be chosen
by the President and the other four
are to be named by the Senate Fi
nance Committee and the Ways and
Means Committee of the House, each
party representation on these com
mittees to name one member. Each
member wilLbe paid a salary of $10,-
000 a year, f'he bill also provides for
a secretary, who shall be paid $6,000
a year.
The bill instructs the board to make
inquiries to determine the difference
in the cost of labor and the cost of
j raw material in the United States
and in foreign countries and to re
port the results as they may be called
for by the President or either House
of Congress.
The board, which is to be an inde
pendent body, is empowered to sum
mon witnesses and to enforce the
production of books and papers. The
bill provides that the board shall not
disclose to the public business se
crets communicated by any individ-
I ual, firm, corporation or partnership.

NEW U. S. REAR ADMIRAL.
WASHINGTON,'^ Dec. 29—President
Wilson to-day sent to the Senate the
nomination of Captain Reynolds T. Hall
to be Rear Admiral in the Navy.
Dr. A. R. Holderby made public
Tuesday his resignation as pastor of
the Moore Memorial Church, which he
has served nearly 25 years. In an
nouncing his decision. Dr. Holderby
gave as the reason for his resignation
the encroachment of modem business
upon the domain of the church. He
will enter mission work, in which he
feels he can reach more persons and
can appeal to them more effectively.
“The influence of the uptown
churches gradually Is becoming more
limited,” said Dr. Holderby. “Each
church formerly had a congregation
which practically lived right around
the church or within a few blocks of
it.
‘As the city has grown so rapidly
in the last few years, families, one
after the other, have been forced to
give up their homes near the churches
and move toward the suburbs or to
nearby towns. Thus the congrega
tions have dwindled perceptibly. I do
not mean to say that the church peo
ple are losing their loyalty. They are
not. It simply is becoming more and
more physically impossible for them
to attend the various affairs of the
church as they did when they had
their residences near by.”
When Dr. Holderby’s resignation
goes into effect. January 31 of next
year, he will be given the title of
“pastor emeritus ” to which position
he was elected Monday night at a
called meeting of the presbytery. This
meeting also accepted his resignation.
The honorary position accorded him
is a rare one in the South, and is an
especial tribute to the length and
value of his services. He will have
completed exactly 25 years wtyh the
church at the end of next month.
Twice before Dr. Holderby has
sought to resign, but his congrega
tion protested so vigorously that he
reconsidered* Dr. Holderby will live
in College Park, according to his pres
ent plans, and will engage in mission
work in Atlanta.

Martin a Candidate
For Commerce Judge
COMMERCE. Dec. 29.—W. D. Martin,
one of the best known attorneys of this
city, will be a canidate for appointment
at the hands of the Governor for City
Court Judge of Jackson County.
Colonel Martin is a graduate of the
University of Georgia Law School, has
practiced several years In Commerce
and will be supported In his ambition to
become Judge by a large and influential
element of the local bar and business
men generally.
The United Daughters of the Con
federacy have been given permission
to have carved in the north side of
Stone Mountain a gigantic figure typ
ifying the Spirit of the Confederacy.
Definite announcement of this was
made Tuesday to The Georgian by
leading members of the organization
who have been working for months to
bring about a realization of their pre
tentious plan.
Permission was contained In a let
ter written by Samuel H. Venable,
owner of the mountain, to Mrs. Helen
Plane, according to the announcement
made Tuesday. Mrs. Plane is hon
orary president of the Atlanta Chap
ter of the U. D. C., and has led in the
movement to have the colossal figure
sculptured in the mountainside.
At the recent general meeting of the
Daughters in Savannah it was decided
to allow the entire U. D. C. organiza
tion to have a part in the work, and
Mrs. Daisy McLaurin Stevens, of
Brandon, Miss., president general of
the Daughters, was empowered to ap
point a committee to start the cam
paign.
Considering Names.
Mrs Plane, Mrs. A. McD. Wilson
and other local U. D. C. leaders are
awaiting the appointment of this
committee in order to go ahead. Mrs.
Stevens is now at Brandon looking
over eligible names, and it is expected
that xMrs. Plane and Mrs. Wilson, who
helped launch the project here, will be
among the Atlantans to be named.
This committee will choose the
sculptor, collect subscriptions for the
preliminary work, and decide on the
style of the mammoth statue. The
figure will be the largest in the world.
The first idea, and probably the one
which will prevail, was to make it
after General Robert E. Lee. It Is
estimated that to prepare the prelim
inary plans and cut the monument
outline will require eighteen months,
and that several years will be required
before the statue Is completed. The
names of Horatio Taft and other noted
sculptors have been suggested to un
dertake the work, but the sculptor will
be picked by the committee.
Prominent Dughters, among them
Mrs. Wilson, have looked over the
statuary of Europe to obtain ideas.
Mrs. Wilson considers the Lion of
Lucerne one of the world’s greatest
creations, and she favors the great
Danish sculptor who fashioned it. An
other mentioned prominently is Rodin,
the noted French sculptor.
The United Daughters of the Con
federacy have just completed a Con
federate memorial at Arlington Cem
etery, Washington, and are under
taking another at Shiloh. The Stone
Mountain colossus will be the next
great undertaking, and the indica
tions are that the Daughters will
show- more enthusiasm over it than
over any similar work.
Would Perpetuate Mountain.
It is understood to be the desire of
the Venables to perpetuate Stone
Mountain and this great monument
which shall stand through all the
ages, and to do this a plan is said to
bemnder way to convey a part of it so
it can never be entailed. The moun
tain is now under a 99-year lease, but
the quarrying operations have had lit
tle effect on the great mass of gran
ite, which is some seven mil»s around
the base.
Less than a year ago W. H. Terrell
suggested that a monument on the
pinnacle of Stone Mountain would be
the most wonderful monument in the
world, and Mrs. Helen Plane, who
founded the Atlanta Chapter, and
Mrs. Wilson carried the suggestion
before the Atlanta Chapter. The mo
tion to work to that end was made by
Mrs. Wilson and seconded by Mrs.
James Bedell. Shortly afterward the
United Daughters of the Confederacy
held a State convention at Eastman
and the plan to have such a monu
ment carved was laid before the State
president and the delegates. Mrs.
Walter Lamar, State presH'--* -*• the
U. D. C„ was so deeply interested that
she carried the plan to the national
convention, which was held at Savan
nah In October Mrs. Daisy McLau
rin Stevens favored the proposition
and the national convention indorsed
the motion to ask Mr. Venable for the
right to have the monument carved
on the steep side of the mountain.
Colonel John Temple Graves made «
stirring address at the national con
ventlon favoring such a wonderful
monument.
Association Organized.
As a beginning of the work of se
curing the right and having the mon
ument placed on the mountain,
number of women from the executive
board of the Atlanta Chapter met at
Carnegie Library and organized the
Stone Mountain Confederate Monu
ment Association, with Mrs, 'Helen
Plane as chairmaiT.
The Daughters of the Confederacy
number many thousands and are or
ganized in every State in the Union.
Each State organization has a num
ber of local chapters, and each chap
ter a good membership. This tremen
dous society of women is noted for
the many and beautiful monuments it
has erected to heroes of the Confed
eracy.
Headquarters will be established in
Atlanta and committees will be ap
pointed by Mrs. Stevens from every
Southern State.
College and high school men from
many cities In Georgia met Tuesday
at the Piedmont Hotel for a confer
ence to determine the proper line of
demarcation between high school and
college curriculums. The meeting was
at the call of Professor J. S. Stew
art. of the University of Georgia, and
was Influenced by the fact that col
lege and high school courses in Geor
gia seem needlessly to overlap and
conflict.
At a meeting of the educational
heads of the State held at the Univer
sity of Georgia last spring Professor
W. R. Lanier, principal of the Cordele
High School, suggested an Investiga
tion into the matter of preparing stu
dents for the colleges of the State, as
there seemingly had become an un
conscious inclination among colleges
to teach branches that are being
taught in the high schools, thereby
taking the high school pupils into the
colleges when training just as valua
ble could be secured at home.
Investigation also showed that high
schools are teaching higher branches
than should be taught, thereby inter
fering with the work of the colleges.
Prominent among the educators in
attendance at the meeting are Pro
fessor Lanier, Professor H. J. Pierce,
of Gainesville, president of Brenau
College; Professor S. G. Riley, of
Brenau College; Professor M. M.
Parks, president of the Georgia Nor
mal and Industrial School. Mllledge-
vllle; Professor J. E. Parks, Cedar-
town; Professor W . E. Thomas, West
Point; Professor W. H. Ritchie, Fitz
gerald; Professor O. R. Horton, Mil-
ledgeville,’ and Professor Perry Grif-
fln, of Riverside.

Garments Found in Stewart Ave
nue Aid Search for East Point
Robbery Suspects.
Two suits of clothing found on
Rtewart avenue Tuesday seemed to
point the way of the escape of Tom
Daley and Hiram Lepper from Fed
eral prison guards and detectives fol
lowing their daring climb over the
walls Friday night. The clothes are
said to correspond to the style worn
by certain Federal prisoners.
Chief of Police Miller, of East Point,
believes Daley and Lepper did not
commit the post office robbery there
Monday morning, this belief being
contrary to the theory advanced by
Postal Inspector R. E. Barry and Se
cret Service Agent J. M. Wright. Mr
Miller declared Daley and Lepper un
doubtedly were bent on getting out of
the country and that they would not
have stopped so near the ^ Federal
prison to blow a saf^. Furthermore,
declared Mr. Miner, squads of prison
guards who knew the pair have been
patrolling towns qf the neighborhood
and doubtless would have recognized
them.
The search for the robbers and the
escapes continued with renewed vigor
Tuesday, following information that
suspicious characters- were seen in
the country districts of Campbell
County.
Finding an art square which meas
ured nine by twelve feet, hanging on
the fence of a nearby house, the safe
blowers confiscated it and used it as
a 'muffler to destroy the sound when
they touched off the charge that
swung wide open the door to the
Government strong box.
No one knew who owned the rug
until Mrs. E. E. Cavaleir, wife of the
Methodist minister at East Point,
called up the police headquarters ana
reported the loss. The home of the
minister is Just in the rear of the
postofflee building.
Bogus Money Plant

feiting plant in the prison.
The coins are all of the half dollar
denomination and are made of babbit
metal, evidently stolen from the suppiy
house.
