CHILD LABOR AND BONDS
SUBJECT STRONG SERMON
Rev. Henry Atkinson Declares
That Coming Election
Must Be Won

At the conclusion of a strong sermon
Sunday evening on the subject of child
labor. Rev. Henry Atkinson, pastor of the
Central Congregational church, urged the
Importance of voting the bond issue.
Child labor is not neglible quantity,
declared Mr.. Atkinson, as some people
contend. On the contrary, 1t is the worst
form of American slavery. He attributes
its prevalence to three cause.-the high
cost of living. the cupidity of parents, and
connivance by the mill owners to evade
laws prohibiting child labor. The evil
results are apparent in the children's
health, mentality and morals. The prob
lem can be solved, said Mr.. Atkinson, by
appointing the right sort of labor COM
missioners.
Regarding the bond issue, Mr.. Atkinson
declared that they must be voted. The
money raised in that way will provide
more schools. He said he knew of in
stances where children had been put to
work because there was not room for
them in the public schools. Good homes
are a necessity and there are hundreds
of people in Atlanta who cannot have
good homes without the modern conven-
fences to be provided by the bond issue.
Clean up Atlanta, said he, and it can no
longer be said that children are better
off in the mills. The only way to do
Il Is for every conscientious citizen to
begin at his own door-yard.

TO ROB AND MURDER
THUGS HURL BRICKS
w. P. Magruder, Real Estate
Man, Had Narrow Escape
Sunday Night

A daring attempt to rob and probably
to murder w. P. Magruder, real estate
dealer of $50 North Jackson street, was
made at his home shortly after o'clock
Sunday night.
Mr. Magruder was alone In the house,
standing in the kitchen with water
pitcher In his hand, when suddenly a
heavy brick crashed through the window,
shattering the pitcher. At the same in
slant another heavy brick grazed his
head and passed on to the wall of the
room.
Mr.. Magruder quickly recovered, and
rushing to another room for revolver
he fired three shots at the fleeing forms
of his two assailants, who had taken
flight when their missiles failed to knock
the intended victim unconscious.
Mr. Magruder notified police headquar-
ters and in a few minutes Assistant Chief
Jett and four call men were upon the
scene.
Mr. Magruder, who is over so years old
and an extensive real estate owner and
dealer, was probably saved by the pres
ence of a note book in his vest pocket.
The heavy brick which shattered the
water pitcher struck the book also. the
two articles preventing 1t from hitting
Magruder with full force.
Several weeks ago a daring attempt to
burglarize the Magruder home was made.
It is believed that the same parties are
guilty of both attempts.
Police and detectives are working on
the case.

a Gatarrh Remedy
Free for a Postal
Simple, Safe and Reliable, and 1t
Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
its miseries. There is no need of this suf-
fering. You can get rid of it by simple,
safe, inexpensive home treatment, discov-
cred by DIR. Blosser, who, for over 81
years. has been treating catarrh success
fully.
His treatment is unlike any other. 1t
is not q spray, douche, salve, cream, or
inhaler, but is a more direct and thorough
treatment than any of these. II cleans
out the head nose, throat and lungs so
that you can again breathe freely and
sleep without that stopped-up feeling that
all catarrh sufferers have. 1t heals the
diseased mucous membranes and arrests
the foul discharge, so that you will not be
constantly blowing your nose and splitting,
and at the same time it does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach, as in
ternal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment with
out cost send your address to DIR. j. w.
Blosser, 81 Walton street, Atlanta, Ga,
and he will send you by return mail
enough of the medicine to satisfy you that
IL is all he claims for ii as a remedy
for catarrh, catarrhal headaches catarrh-
al deafness, asthma, bronchitis, colds and
all catarrhal complications. lie will also
send you free an illustrated booklet.
Write him Immediately.
