TRADES COUNCIL
GIVING SCHOOL
BOOKS FREE
Asking That Persons Having
No Need For School Books
Communicate With Their Of
fices
That labor organizations are not
merely established to aid those within
Its folds but also to foster the general
well being and to render assistance in
every worthy cause Is evidenced by
the work carried on by the “Educa
tional Committee’’ of the Augusta
Federation of Trades as submitted In
a report recently rendered by Mr. E.
F. Toole, the chairman of that com
mittee.
Mr. Toole speaks very enthusias
tically of the work accomplished so far
in supplying the necessary books and
supplies to the needy children of the
public schools, especially those of the
4th and sth ward. Many a child who
otherwise would be compelled to fore
go the opportunity of an education is
thereby made happy.
Arrangements have been made with
the principals of some of the schools
to furnish names of children whose
Inability to secure the necessary'
books may prevent them from attend
ing school and whereever possible the
committee will endeavor to fill the
need. Of course the resources of the
Federation are necessarily limited and
a general appeal is 'made to the good
people of Augusta to aid In this hu
manitarian work in behalf of child
hood. Those familiar with the true
condition of affairs, state that the
number of children kept out of school
because of lack of means to buy books
Is alarmingly large and their parents
are grateful for any aid rendered,
disproving the oft-repeated statement
that they are little concerned In the
child’s welfare.
There are hundreds of people In this
city who could render valuable assist
ance toward helping this movement
by donating old books which are of
no further use to their children but
which could readily he used by those
In need. Those desiring to do so are
requested to communicate with Mr.
E. F. Toole, 1740 Ellis St., or leave
the hooks at the "Federation Hall,"
corner of Jackson and Kills streets.
They will he gratefully received and
promptly placed at the disposal of the
children.
The committee also desires the
names and addresses of children In
need of books, etc., and all assistance
In this direction Is greatly appre
ciated.

Mrs. Potter, social arbiter. Is an at
tractive looking woman and may be
quite as attractive In other ways when
she Is not being attempted for an in
terview, but as a contributor to the
press of today she is rather nil. Her
personal appearance gives no idea of
the fact that she is a woman of un
limited means. She was tn traveling
attire, a dark green tailored suit, pep
lum style with a chiffon waist of a
lighter shade and a close fitting black
hat, simply trimmed yet evidencing
much style. Her hair is soft and
white and her complexion does credit
to her massuese. Mrs. Potter Palmer
Is addicted to picture show's and took
in the Augusta ones while here. In
fact the Herald man had to wait quite
a little while before he could see her—
so fascinating did she find the Mod-
Jeska. Mrs. Palmer is travelling with
her secretary and four servants, all
of whom were quartered at the Albion
and they left last night for Florida.
Mrs. Palmer arrived in the city over
the Georgia railroad’s fast train at
6:25 p. m. on the Chicago-Augusta
through Pullman. Proprietor S. J.
Newcomb, of the Albion, sent his tour
ing car to meet the distinguished Chi
cago woman and her party. She left
via the Southern aboard the Jackson
ville sleeper at 11:30.

lionaire hotel man of the Windy City.
