Comfort Bags for Battleship
Georgia.

The following letter explains
itself as it comes fresh from the
sanctum of the president of the
Georgia w. G. T. U. Now this
call, while it is made through the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, does not mean that only
white ribbon women are asked to
send Comfort Bags but that
every woman who wants to assist
is urged to do so and bring their
offering to the local W. c. 7. u.
or to the president, Mrs. Mary
Stone, corner of Magnolia and
Longstreet, or lie av e it at the
Enterprise Office to be delivered
to her. Local pride should cause
us to keep step with the best of
them.
Eastman, Ca, Jan. II. 1907.
Dear Comrade:
Do you think Ga.
w. C. T. U. could furnish COM
fort bags for Batt1eship Georgia,
to be presented on Georgia Day
at Jamestown Exposition-Mrs.
Webb, of Savannah, has written
to headquarters for supplies and
finds that by buying altogether
she can furnish scissors, surgi.
cal appliances, leaflets, testa-
ment and song books all for 80
cents per bag. The bags with
buttons, pins, needles, ETC..
which we can get in any small
town, will cost 80 cents, thus
making 90 cents in all. Of course
l know we cannot afford to fur
nish anythin out of the treasury;
but my idea is to appeal to each
Union to pledge so many bags.
Our friends who are not w. c.
T. U. mem bers will help us l am
sure and I believe if Madame
Kali Yaieina could $4,000 made
in Japan, we can get 772 made in
Georgia. Eastman pledges 100.
Miss Davis, our State Supt. is
very much enthused over it and
l will do all l can-wil1 send out
letters to individuals who are not
members for a bag, or its equiv
alent. Please let me know by
return mail if you approve the
plan. tt.
Sincerely,
Mary Harris Armour.

HIM. Atkinson talks
Of Brunswick's Trip

The establishment OF f1cn
trade relations between the ports
of Georgia and the southeast and
Cuba will be the result of the ln-
auguration of the new Bruins wick
Havana lines, in conjunction
with the New York and Bruins
wick lines, which are to be ope-
rated by the Brunswick Steam
ship company, is the opinion ex-
pressed by President H. M. At
kinson, of the new steamship
company, who has returned
from the maiden trip of the new
passenger ship brunswick"
The evidences of the new re-
lations which will be put into
effect by the steamship line was
proved by the trip, when a cargo
was carried to Havana that test
ed the accom- modation of the yes
sci. On account of the enthusias m
with which shippers of Georgia
and the southeast have accepted
the advantages of the new line,
it will be necessary for the omc-
pauy to charter a special freight
er that will ply between Havana
and Brunswick alone.
There are already four NAM
moth freight ships that are to
carry the trade of the southeast
to New York and eastern ports.
These vessels are to sail every
day from Brunswick and New
York. The immense amount of
shipping which will be cargoed
will make it impossible for these
vessels to go as far south as Ha'
vana, so a freighter to be used
only between Brunswick and the
Cuban capital will be put on.
II think the outlook for our
trade relations with Cuba is one
of the brightest that I have ever
SEEM" said Mr.. Atkinson. THE
first trip has already fulfilled the
greatest expectancies, and,
Judging by the enthusiasm with
which we have been met by the
people of Cuba, it is only natural
to believe that the connecting OF
that country with this will re.
suit in the best advantages to all.
"There are many products
manufactured in Georgia and the
southeast that will find a ready
market in Cuba. On the first
trip we carried down a cargo of
materials that few people would
know are desired in Havana.
There we're window frames
from Savannah, vegetable crates
that were built in Fort Valley,
and a number of other products
that will be sold in the Cuban
ports.
There was the greatest inter-
est in the arrival of the Bruns-
wick at Havana. It was the first
passenger vessel to have cleared
from ..any Georgia port for a
foreign country."-At1anta Jour-
nal.
