Atlanta dentist, opened his new Of
fees Wednesday morning at the cor
ner of Whitehall and Alabama streets,
over Jacobs Pharmacy, and many
friends were glad to welcome him
back, for during his nine years prac-

a reputation as one of the city's best
practitioners.
He received his training in crown
and bridge work under DR. J. G. Hol-
lingsworth, the great specialist of the
Kansas City Dental College, from
which institute DR.. Needham gradu-
ated in 1895. He is recognized as an
expert in crown and bridge work and,
what is essential to-day in success

relations existing between nervous

DIR. Needham says he believes thor
oughly that big prosperity is here for
Atlanta, and he is mighty glad to be
back in harness to help pull with the

STARTER
FOR bAP fist
HOSPITAL
Congregations Enter Campaign
for Greatest TotaI-AtIanta to
Raise 100000.

the campaign committee OF the
Atlanta Association for the Greater
Georgia Baptist Hospital went back
to its work Wednesday morning with
renewed vlgor, following meeting
the previous afternoon at Whlcn TWO
big subscriptions. one for s5,O00 ana
one for 81 900, were announced as
promised" The idea is to raise
$1,000 in Atlanta by February /, al :
ter which the State Association OF
Georgia Baptists is to raise another
100000.
AT the Tuesday meeting the pastors
of the leading Baptist churches or
the city were present, as well as
several prominent laymen The an
nouncement Of the big subscriptions
was made by +. j. Coolidge, chair
man, at whose offices the meeting
was held.
A challenge was given by repre-
sentatives Of the Ponce DeLeon Ave
nue. Baptist Church to the First and
Second Churches to engage in a
three cornered race as TO which
should raise the most money. Each
of the three churches expects to top
the $4,000 mark.
The Georgia Baptist Hospital was
purchased from the old Tabernacle
Inflrmary in March. 1913, and since
that time has cared for 500 patients.
The total amount of work done to
date amounts TO 1925, 900, a great deal
of charity work being included. At
ter the raising of the 100000, the
present property is to be sold, at an
estimated price of $125,000, which is
a fair value.
Then a new site will be purchased
and a commodious and thoroughly
modern building erected, equipped
not only for caring for patients, but
also for the training school work Of
a larger number of girls.

Of them this season. Right now they
both look fit to go the route. Kis-
singer secured from Memphis, is well
known to the fans In this circuit and
Is hard man to beat at all times,
He should win many games as he Is
a hard and tireless worker. The new
men are Doescher. secured from Jer-
sey City, of the International League
club: Browning comes from the Texas
League: Lawrence was purchased
from the Appalachian League, and
Perryman and Efird are former Vir-
ginia Leaguers.
D0ESCHER and Browning have
- both had considerable experience
and should prove to be winners. The
other three BOYS look good and will
doubtless make a hard fight for a
regular position. The exhibition
games, starting to-day, will probably
decide this issue.
Behind the plate we have the old
reliable Joe Dunn, from last season,
and three new men, namely, Munch,
Reynolds and Walsh. This fellow
Munich looks mighty sweet behind
the bat and will give them all hard
battle. Reynolds was with the club
the first part of last season and was
sent 10 the Texas League, where he
caught great ball.
Walsh will probably be sent else
where on account Of his limited eX-
perience, and the number of expe-
rienced men he has to compete with.
The catching problem will be worked
out the same as the pitching, during
the exhibition series starting at once.
TAKING It all in all, the Crackers
l prospects are brighter now than
at the opening of last season.
