Burglars with epicurean appeties
were busy in Atlanta Thursday night,
according to reports made to police
headquarters Friday.
one took a cake from the residence
OF Robert L. Estes, No 463 East Geor-
gia avenue Thursday Mrs. Estes
baked the cake. 1t was so tempting
Mr.. Estes wanted to eat it Thurs
day night. but was given to under
stand the cake would not be cut until
Friday.
But Friday morning an open win
dow revealed an intrusion, and cluck-
ing hens indicated that the burglar
sat upon the back fence and enjoyed
the cake. The chickens were busy
with the crumbs.
In contrast was a burglar who
broke into the office Of the National
Biscuit Company at No. pa Peters
street. Although he was surrounde
by cakes and sweet things he did not
touch them. He worked upon the safe
combination until he solved 1t, and
made off with $85.
The burglar apparently hid in tn"
warehouse during the day and was
locked in. After committing the bur
glary he left the building by unlock
ing the front door from the inside.
Epicurean burglars displayed their
taste in the robbery of Singleton
Bros grocery at No. 81 Cone stree.
They gained entrance by smashing 4
plate glass window and helped them
selves to a large assortment of fine
canned goods.

NOVEL WAY Of NOT
GOING IN DEBT.
CHRISTMAS CLUBS WERE FORM
ED BY ONE COMM UNITY AND
SAVED MONEY.

Yonkers, n. Y, Dec. 27.-There
are mighty few of the newlywedS
and the older weds of Yonkers,
Mount Vernon and other sections Of
Westchester county who bethought
them of the fine Christmas they
were having today-and then looked
forward with gloom to the bills that
must be paid one week hence, when
the monthly statements arrive. For
the newlyweds and the older weds
of these localities this year solved
the problem of spending with fair
degree Of prodigality on their Christ
mas presents without going into
debt or completely depicting the
family exchequer to do so.
They formed Christmas clubs
eaily in January, 1918, with head
quarters in various banks and
financial institutions, and by the
time Christmas shopping was neces
sary had saved sums ranging from
O,OO0 to $15O,OO0. Members of the
clubs, according to their finances,
banked suIns ranging from 10 cents
to 81 every week. Two per cent
interest was paid on the average
weekly balance, except when a
member failed to bank for one week.
Scores of children's clubs were
formed, but very few had a clean
record for continuous deposits, and
therefore they lost the 2 per cent
interest. The club which had $l75,-
600 to its credit this year worked
the plan last year when it met the
drains of Christmas with a $4,000
fund. Another club this year de-
posted 100000 to its credit when
1t came time to buy Christmas
presents. Still another club in al
large suburban town of New Jersey
had 5000 members this year. The
amount this club saved was not
given.
