is true that there have been frequent
appeals for other worthy causes, that

so worthy of need as this. no movement
which can give so much happiness at

to give them one red letter day in their
black calendar of poverty and need.
The list of subscriptions published
today shows how the Atlantans who are
constantly called upon for gifts to va
rious causes have contributed literally
to the Empty Stocking fund. Many OF
these are men whose annual outlay in
charity and public movements reaches
tremendous sums. Yet not one of them
hesitated when asked to add q gift to
the children's fund, not one but ex-
pressed his or her pleasure in contrib

Sir Thomas Lipton of Ireland. Eng

arrived today, motored out to the Geor-
gian Terrace and settled down on a red
velvet divan to chat with old and new
friends.
There's nothing formidable about Sir
Thomas. He isn't half so imposing in
his demeanor as his valet. Louise. This
Louis must have an awful time keeping
his dignity at par and travelling with
such a democratic chap as his master
But Sir Thomas? Oh just a six-foot
old chap with slight stoop in his
shoulders from bending over and talk
ing to shorter folk; q rudy, sun tanned
face, rather thinning gray hair and a
grizzly mustache.
Merry Twinkle in His Blue Eyes.
He wore a blue sack coat, long
chinchilla overcoat, tan shoes and a
derby when he left the train. OF course
he wore that blue and white spotted
windsor tie with flaring ends. draped
around comfortable stand-up collar
with plenty of room in front for an
Adams apple.
And he has merry twinkle in his
blue eyes and a bit of the most deli
cious smootEest. most inimitable
bgosue that ever came out Of Ireland.
Colonel Willis Raglan, his host in AT
