SUNDAY GARDEN
WORK AGAINST LAWS
ATLANTA MAN GETS WRATHY
WHEN OFFICER STOPS HIM
AND NOBODY WILL EXTEND
SYMPATHY.

Atlanta, Sept. IS. w. N. Mitchell,
a we'll known Atlanta railroad man, is
outraged with law enforcement in gen
leral, and Sabbath observance laws in
particular, owing to an experience he
had last Sunday morning.
He got up and went to church and
performed all the ceremonies of de-
vine worship. Then he went back
home and put on a pair of over1lils
and went into his garden with a small
hoe and began to get rid of some
weeds, thinking thereby he was per-
forming an act of patriotism. Direct
ly mounted policeman rode along
and told him he was violating the
law. Thinking The officer was kid
ding him, Mr.. Mitchell kept on work
ing. Then the officer told him if he
didn't stop a case would be made
against him. Mr.. Mitchell stopped,
very indignant.
Next morning he went to see Mayor
Gambler and told that gentleman his
troubles. The Mayor took the side of
the officer, and gave Mr.. Mitchell to
understand that he would not remit
the fine if the police should let him
Whereupon Mr. Mitchell demanded
to know which was worse-working
: in a garden on Sunday, to help lick
the Kaiser or selling a certain soft
drink on the Sabbath. This question
displeased the Mayor, who terminated
the interview abruptly.
Then Mr.. Mitchell went to see his
kfriend, Clark Howell, of the Atlanta
Constitution, but that gentleman did
not encourage him much Then he
went to see his friend Jack" Cohen,
of the Atlanta Journal who was no
more sympathetic than Clark Howell.
Finally he went to see Jim" Nevin, of
| the Georgian, and still had no luck.
Now he is having to tell his troubles
| by word of mouth

sorely-tried people are to have enough

Five thousand tons of clothing is
thu minimum amount the Red Cross
hopes to ship to these people as a
result of this rive An equal amount
was collected in the clothing cam
paign last March, and for some
time past has been in the pro.
cess of distribution in Belgium and
much more is needed according to
Herbert c. Hoover, chairman of the
Commission for the Relief of Bel

to this worthy call, Henry P Dawson
