MULE MEN PLAN
| BIC MARKET HERE
Atlanta Mentioned for Headquar-
tiers of Association Being Or
gained by Raisers.

NASHVILLE, TENN, Feb. 10
Atlanta is being considered as the
headquarters Of the proposed Ameri-
can Mule Association, the big live
stock enterprise that is scheduled for
organization here to-day, many States
participating in the movement that is
to be formed to give recognition to
the mule as distinct type and estab-
lish a standard with classification
both in the sale and shipment of such
animals.
The plan for the organization was
originated several months ago by viii
S. Williams of Maury County, and
has met with enthusiastic encourage
ment from the mule raiser and deal
ers over the country. Atlanta stands
third among the mule markets OF the
United States and would perhaps de-
velop into the biggest market with
the establishment of headquarters for
the new association. Only three other
cities are being considered. Nashville,
Louisville and st. Louis.
A live stock journal devoted ex-
clusively to the mule industry in all
of It's aspects will be one of the fea-
lures of the movement to develop
mule raising in this country for home
use and export trade. With the great
advance in recent years in this class
of stock and the opening of the Pana-
ma Canal the industry is expected to
reach enormous proportions in the
South,

MILLS VIOLATING
LAW, SAYS JUDGE
County Official Urges CompuI-

Checking Child Labor.

Sixty-four per cent Of the cotton
mills of Georgia are willfully violat-
ing the provisions Of the State child
labor law, asserted Judge w. w. Tin
dali, of the Juvenile Court of Fulton
County, who conducted the Sunday
evening services at the Ponce DeLeon
Avenue Baptist Church. Judge Tin
dali quoted from statistics compiled
by the Government to substantiate
his charge.
Ignorance is responsible for this
condition of affairs" said the judge.
What we need most in this section
of the South is compulsory educa-
ton"
He said the argument that compul-
sorry education would necessitate a
double school system, one for the
whites and one for the. negroes, is
pure buncombe.

could we face it than to teach the

Child With EventfuI Past, Which,
of Course, She Doesn't I'm
derstand, Happy Now.

Little Lena Swift. the Thirty
Thousand Dollar Baby" is in her new
home in Atlanta. with her grand
mother, Mrs. Lena Swift Huntley.
And little Lena is happy.
Lena, of course, was too young to
understand anything Of the tragedy
in the separation Of her father and
mother She understood nothing of
the domestic troubles-except, per-
haps, that mamma cried good deal,
forted her with small arms and large
kisses
The little Lena understood nothing
of the divorce, or OF the legal tangles,
known what caused the papers to
print flaring headlines about her
mother giving up 100000 so that she
might keep the little Lena.
All this went clear over little Lena's
head, which isn't a yard from her
small feet as yet. And when her
mother died in Washington-well you
know how IL is with child. A lone
someness. and a questioning that is
not directly answered, and then a
getting used to 1t; quickly, as a child
does things.
Little Lenas auntie was very good
to her, and so was little Lena's
grandmother. And the little Lena,
not questioning the sacrifice of the
one or the devotion of the other. is at
home now in the Peachtree street
mansion OF Mrs Huntley. and is be-
ginning to be very happy.
Her past has been eventful, you see
but 1t was very short; gagged (you
might say by the tinyness of the lit
tie Lena herself.
