gence Of the enlisted men has gwen
the regiment the name, in army clr-
Cles, Of being the high brow rcgi-
ment of the service"
Expressions Of regret that they are
to leave Atlanta, possibly never to
return. were freely made by officers
Of the Seventeenth Thursday Viz
tually every one declared that If given
their choice they would choose Fort
Mcpherson in preference to any other
army post in the United States.
Expect to Return.
Most Of them seemed to think the
regiment would return to Atlanta af-
ter few months service on the bor-
der. basing this belief on the fact
that TIE War Department gave both
officers and men orders to leave their
wives and personal belongings in
Atlanta,
Major George w. Martin declared
that there is little grounds for the
rumors that the regiment is to be
ordered into foreign service after its
duties on the border are completed.
He expressed the belief that even the
Secretary OF War has not determined
wath disposition will be made Of the
regiment
we are all hoping that the regi-
ment will be sent back to Atlanta af-
ter we get through patroling the Dor
der" said Major Martin. and the
fact that we have been directed to
leave our families here gives us
grounds for believing that such will
be the case. We have no reason to
believe that we will be ordered into
foreign service or to another fort"
Major Martin Praises Atlanta.
Major Martin paid big tribute TO
Atlanta before he entrained for the
Southwest
Every man in the regiment,
think, is sorry to leave Atlanta" he
said, although naturally they are
pleased that they have chance 10

mas caused Fort MCPHERSON to become
the favored army post of the country
Every officer wishes to be attached
to the Seventeenth and Fort Nc
Phcrson, and ! understand that the
War Department is fairly swamped
with requests for transfers from
other parts of the country to Atlanta.
Every one of the men, from the
highest officer to the latest recruit,
has "A big place in his heart for At
lanta. We all wish to be returned
here when our duties are finished on
the border
Guard of Fifty Left.
There are few places in the Coun-
try where soldiers are shown the
courtesies the men nfthis regiment
have received in Atlanta. Yhe hos
pitality of the South is evident at all
times. In other cities, which have
army posts, army men are sometimes
considered more or less Of a nuisance
but In Atlanta we are all egotistical
enough to believe that the people like
us and like to have us in their city.
And We like to bchere."
The four trains carried a total of
S36 men and officers, leaving so men

Institution,

believe the larger institution would
net still larger profits. At the pres
ent time they are unable to care for
more than one ease in ten at the pay
hospital
Dean w. S. Eikin, Of the Atlanta
Medical College, outlined the imme-
date necessity Of new hospital
The Grady Hospital is inadequate,
fire trap, unsanitary and men
ace to all patients and the general
public" he said. They can't attend
to even small part of the cases
There are about twenty ambulance
calls every day and with the present
facilities it is impossible to answer
only two or three of such hurry up
calls. At present there is no ma
ternity hospital in Atlanta for colored
women. It is a depIorable fact. yet
negro women have been picked up on
the street in serious condition, be-
cause of their inability to get medi
cal attention anywhere in the city"
Mayor Promises Help.
"A modern hospital would be one
OF the biggest assets of the city and
would do much to advertise Atlanta.
Other cities not much larger are now
erecting hospitals costing as high as
six million dollars. Why can not At
lanta spend at least a million dollars
at least to hold her own? A munich
pal hospital would benefit all and the
| taxpayers should be willing TO stand
the small additional expense"
Mayor Woodward promised his aid
in securing the bond issue and said
he would fight for the passage of the

Colonel Robert ]. Lowry, who has

Question of Bond Issue.
The question of whether the bond
