Up and down he goes
With terrible, reckless strides,
Haunting great lamps
With joyous swings
One to the East
One to the West
And Haunting two words
In a thunderous call
That thrills the heart sof all enemies:
All, One; All, One; All, One, All, One!
Beware that queer, wild, wonderful
boy
And his playground-don't go near!
All, One; All, One; All, One; All, One;
Up and down he goes.

BONE DRY" LAW CAUSE IN
CREASED ORDERS FOR RYE

Atlanta, Ga. Feb. 24-Although il
is against the law to run whisky ad-
vertisements in Georgia it would seem
that every newspaper in the state car
ried powerful whiskey advertise
ment on its front page this week in
the announcement of the passage of
the bone dry" law.
No sooner had the news been pub
lished than mail orders out of Allan
ia for whisky jumped to an unprece-
dented point and it is understood that
the same thing took place in every
other town in the state.
Literally speaking, people ordered
whisky who had never ordered any
before in their whole lives. 1t looked
like last chance, and they didn't
know when they might be snake
bitten, and one man, said it was his
opinion that more liquor would be
ordered into Georgia during the next
week than had ever been before to the
same sized territory in the history Of
the world.

|. Pastor Cooper of the Baptist church
was greeted by large audience at

very forcefully put before his congre-
cation the situation as touching Bap-
fist conditions in the state. Especial
ly did he explain the financial con-
dition OF the denomination in the
state.
AT the ~clese OF the service he. for
mally asked for a leave OF absence Of
90 days in order that he can take up
the work OF assisting IN the raising of
the half million dollars to rid Georgia
Baptists of debt. The church very
promptly granted this leave and Mr..
Cooper enters the work with the as
surance of the support of his own
church.
AT the night service the deacons
unanimously recommended DR.. Gil
bert Dobbs to supply during the alb
sence of the Passes and he was duly
chosen by the church for this work.
DR.. Dobbs has preached here on two
occasions and made good impress
sion. He will live m the city during

SOME OF THE HORRORS OF
THE PRESENT GREAT WAR

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 24.-Will the
European war sound the death knelI
of the skirt as the standard neither
garment of feminine apparel for all
occasions.
No, it will not taboo the skirt for
ball room uses or formal occasions,
but Atlanta women who have tried
the experiment declare the skirt is
gone as garment in which to clean
house, work among the flowers and
cultivate vegetables.
Taking their cue from the women of
England and France who are not only
doing mems work but wearing mems
clothes, scores of Atlanta housewives
are wearing overalls every day around
the house, and find them not only
more practical but more comfortable
and convenient than the old-fashioned
skirts.
