Wild Indiana, wrapped In blankets
and wearing all the war paint and
feathers they could muster, followed a
herd of bulTalo through Atlanta's
streets Monday morning. They were
followed by a horde of Cossacks,
tribe of Moorish warriors end a whole
war, party of Filipinos. Interspersed
In the procession were cowboys, Japa
nese soldiers, artillery, prairie schoon
ers and every other variety of unusual
type that could be secured for a big
show.
All of which means that Pawnee Bill
and his band have come to town ageln.
The show arrived Sunday morning and
began to get busy nn the lot. All day
Sunday a crowd watched the prepara
tions for the performances on Monday,
chatted with the Indians nnd watched
the cowboys shoot craps In the shadow
of the tent*. Performances will be
given Monday afternoon and night.
But the parade was the big thing.
Early In the morning the streets were
crowded with watchers and every win
dow along the line of inarch had Its
half dotsn eager faces. The parade
started promptly at 10 o'clock and tra
versed the principal uptown streets,
preceded by a detachment of mounted
police.
A Big Parade.
If there Is anything better than
real old circus parade It Is a wild West
show. Almost everybody has seen the
gilded cages and the elephants and
heard the roaring of the lions behind
the bars. But Indians are not so plen
tiful. Even the cigar stars variety Is
rapidly dropping out of existence and
the big chiefs and the squaws In Mon
day's parade tfere the central figures
of attraction. It was s little hard to
tell a warrior from his wife, for the
ladles are up-to-date In their riding
and wear divided skirts, which closely
resemble the trousers of their liege
lords.
But Indiana were not the whole show.
The cowboys were cheered as they
passed the corners and when a detach
ment of Jop soldiers l'mle past limy
were given an ovation. The Cossacks,
seated high on their clum-y saddles
and Jolting up and down us they rode,
came In for a share of the attention.
The big prairie schooner, a relic of t lie
overland days, caused as much com
ment as any part of the parade.

SUSPEND C0UN7Y SCHOOLS;
LE7 PUPILS PICK C077ON
In order to save the cotton crop of
the South, loss of whloh Is Jeopardised
through scarcity of labor, S. A. Cun
ningham, editor of The Confederate
Veteran, of Nashville, has sent to Gov
ernor Terrell, of Georgia, as well as the
chief executives of all the Southern
states, a letter urging the suspsnslon
of the country schools In order that the
children might aid In saving the cotton.
Mr. Cunningham has travsled over a
large part of the cotton-producing sec
tion of the country, anu In his letter
points out the gravity of the situation.
The letter Is as follows;
My Dear Sir; Pardon the liberty I
take In addressing you. Circumstances
have caused me to travel, within less
than two weeks, almost entirely aoross
the cotton belt of the South, and 1
have found cottdn conditions so alarm
ing everywhere that I feel Impelled to
try to sound a' learning' th Wgh imtist
Influential sources and to suggest the
best, if not the only possible remedy.
The Immense draft of laborers from the
farms by Improvements In cities nnd
the building of steam and etectrlo rall-
tvays, togsther with the prolonged
rainy weather, have delayed the pick
ing of cotton so that tt seems ltmiossf-
ble to save It fexoept by united effort.
The particular suggestion that I de
sire to make Is the suspension'of pub
lic and private schools for several
weeks, nnd that all school children be
urged to help save the cotton with
whloh the Mouth le so greatly blessed.
Urge farmers to pay the highest prices,
and appeal to parents or weatth ns a
patriotic duty to Induce their children
to help save the cotton. It Is a condi
tion as seriously threatening as It our
cities were on fire; It Is Indeed appall
ing. Every Southern patriot should co
operate In saving the millions and mil
lions of value In cotton that may be ut
terly ruined before It can be saved by
the usual methods/ Respectfully. ‘: 11 j.

Facing the remarkabls situation of
having 3,100 churches, with only *00
ministers to fill ths pulpits, the South
ern Presbyterian church will Invoke
divine Intercession.
The executive committee of the
Southern Assembly has sst aside next
Sunday as a day of prayer to God to
send more mlnlsteri to help the church
In the crisis It now faces. It has
brought to the fort with startling force
the scarcity of laborers In the field,
nnd the need for prayer In the churches
and homes for men to come forward
to minister the Divine Word.
Actual figures show a remarkable
state of affairs. In the Jurledlctlon of
the Southern Assembly there are $,1$6
churches, with only $41 regular minis
ters to serve them. These 84t supply
110 churches, leaving 2,026 without
ministerial guidance.
Hope for supplying these churchee
lies in simply taking the pastor of some
other church, which help* conditions in
one community to the hurt of another.
The supply Is nowhere near the de
mand, Last year only forty-three min
isters were licensed to presch In the
Southern Presbyterian church, but this
was almost offset by thirty-nine
deaths.
It lias come to pass that almost a*
fast as new churchss are established
old ones are dlseolved for lack of min
isterial service. With that kind of con
dition existing the church It losing
ground Instead of growing.
As an Index to the trouble besetting
the church It will prove startling to
know that In 1$05 flfty-one nnv
churches were established, but within
the same period forty-four went out
of business becaus* no ministers could
be secured to serve them.
The Northern Presbyterians face no
such problem. With 7,300 churches
they have 7,700 ministers. Facing such
a grave problem. Southern Presbyte
rians next Sunday will gather full force
In their churches to offer up pleas for
divine eld In sending strong, conse
crated young men to the ministry. A
call for prayer has been sent out by
the executive committee.
