We have quite a number OF girls here in Our

girls you know must have queer taste indeed

I have brothers and know something OF the

I say the girls are TO blame to II great ex.
tent. Many a time they tempt the boys ana
lead them on. Some girls start out to be
popular and think the only way Is by allowing
the boys privileges that they should not. A
girl may toss her head and say she Is as good
as Miss So-and-so, who isn't called fast. But In
her heart she knows the beauty Of her charac-
ter, like the down on a butterfly's wing has
been spoiled by handling sincerely.

SHE SAYS WOMAN STARVED;
GRAPHIC. STORY OF MISERY

Have you ever stopped to think that
1t is possible for a human being to starve
In the big, generous city of Atlanta-At-
lanta with its hundreds of rich and kind
hearted men and women, its scores OF
churches and charitable institutions, its
asylums for the poor and the needy, and
above all. its many tables which daily
food the refuse OF which is thrown to
the dogs?
Have you ever seriously thought what
STARVATION means-the slow. painful
and steady process OF dissolution from the
lack of food to keep body and soul to-
gether?
The chances are that you have theorized
about the latter proposition in vague
sort of way; that your sympathies have
been worked on through the medium of
some skillful writer of fiction, but you
did not think Of the matter at all serious
ly as possible in a city like Atlanta. You
simply dismissed the subject as too pre-
posterous to entertain.
And yet, 1t is not only possible but
probable under certain circumstances.
DID SHE sTARVE TO DEATH?
Wednesday an aged woman named Mol
ly Poindexter was found in a room in
Jones avenue. Life was extinct. The
room was reeking with filth. It's sole
occupant besides the corpse was shat
tered and rickety young man of thirty
years-a mere shell of stumbling hu-
mainly whose vitality had been Slapped
by the repeated use of drugs. He was
the woman's brother. He had seen her
die-die for the want Of food, according
to the statement of one who knew the
dead woman intimately and who had re
peatedly aided her.
This woman Is Miss Willie Chambers,
a dressma5er, who lives at 529 Central
avenue and who possesses not only
rarely sympathetic nature, but is intelli-
gent and informed above the average.
Here is her story:
"I first met Miss Molly Poindexter in
