CHARIOT RACE ENACTED

The Beaver Produce Cos. Horse and
Negro Driver Give Exhibition.

An exciting chariot race was enact
ed on Main street Friday when the

CHANDLER WORKS
 FOR UNIFICATI0N
Brother Opposes Merging Of Northern And South
 ern Church Groups
(By Associated Press.) ]

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 19. Judge John S. Candler, brother of Bishop Warren A. Candler, leading opponent of the Unification of the northern and southern branches of the Methodist Episcopal church, today was at work as chairman of "The Friends of Unifica- tion," an organization formed in the North Georgia Methodist conference.
 As senior bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, Bishop Candler, former chancellor of Emory university, has conducted a vigorous fight against the move to unite his branch of the denomination with the northern division. Judge Candler, 6 prominent layman in the North Georgia conference, was selected to head the organization to work for unification a short time ago.
 "Unification is proposed on most democratic and advantageous terms for the southern branch of the church" Judge Candler says in statement be- ing circulated. "The whole idea is not to merge the two great institutions but to combine for greater and better ser vice. The southern branch will not lose its identity and its rights will be protected on an equal footing with the northern branch, although our branch is little more than half as large,
 The two men are brothers of Asa G. Candler, Atlanta capitalist.

Little Stories For Bedtime
REDDY FOX BRINGS GRANNY NEXEC
(By THORNTON BURGEss)


 NOW that snow covered the Green IN Meadows and the Green Forest,
 and ice had bound the Smiling Pool and the Laughing Brook, Reddy and Granny Fox were hungry most of the time. It was not easy to find enough to eat these days, and so they spent nearly every minute they were awake in hunting. Sometimes they hunted together. but usually one went one way and the other went another way, so as to have a greater chance of finding something. If either found enough for two the one finding it took it back to their home if 1t could be car ried. If not, the other was told where to find it.
 For several days they had had very little indeed to eat, and they were so hungry that they were willing to take almost any chance to get good meal. Browns henhouse, hoping they would biddies had been securely locked up, and try as they would they couldn't find a way in.
 Its of no use," said Granny, as they started back home after the second try to hope to get one of those hens at night. If we are going to get any at all we will have to do it in broad daylight It can be done, for I have done it be, fore, but don't like the idea. We are likely to be seen, and that means that Bowser the Hound will be set to hunt ing us."
 Pooh v exclaimed Reddy. "What of it? It's easy enough to fool him."
 You think so, do you?" snapped Granny. Il never yet saw a young Fox who didn't think he knew all there is to know, and you're just like the rest When you've lived as long as l have you will have learned not to be quite so sure of your own opinions.

Stuffed Onions

Any large white onions can be stuffed, but what are known as Spanish onions are usually selected for this purpose. Take those about three inches in diam eter, cut off the tops and scoop out the centers, then parboil for five minutes. After draining they are ready to be filled. The stuffing may be of fine bread crumbs, boiled rice, chopped raw or cooked meat; whatever the chosen basis, it should be highly seasoned and moistened with a little melted butter. After filling the onions and putting one half of a teaspoon of butter on the top of each, they are placed in baking pan, stock poured in until about an inch deep and baked in a moderate oven for an hour or more.

Christmas Oysters
Oysters and Bacon

Choose very small oysters and allow eight to person. Make strips of toast and keep hot in the oven. Cook quickly in very hot frying pan some strips of delicate, thin bacon without rind and when brown lay one on each strip of toast. Put the oysters in the frying pan with the bacon fat which remains in it and cook quickly until plump; lay on the strips of toast; garnish with slices of lemon and parsley. Steamed Oysters Wash and drain them, lay upon a plate and steam over salted water About 10 minutes will be sufficient to cook them. They may be served plain upon squares of toast or a rich cream gravy can be served with them. This should be rather highly seasoned with raprika and a little minced parsley. Oyster Pie
 Prepare a rich pie crust and line the bottom of baking dish with portion of it. Bake, and in the meanwhile pre- pare a filling as follows: Melt in a saucepan ? tablespoons of butter; add tablespoon of flour, then 11a cups milk and oyster liquid mixed. Season with salt and pepper; add pint of carefully picked over oysters, together with enough bread crumbs to absorb any excess moisture. Bring to the boiling point, fill the pastry case, cover with another crust and bake just long enough to cook this.
 Potato Balls
 To one pint of creamed, seasoned po- tatos add half well-beaten egg and make into balls. Roll each ball in cracker crumbs and the other half of egg lay the balls in buttered dish and bake golden brown.
 Colonial Pie with Whipped Cream
 pint pumpkin A teaspoon salt l cup sugar F teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon ginger

 F teaspoon allspice 1 teaspoon flour 4 teaspoon nutmeg
 Mix all the ingredients thoroughly /; add the beaten whites of the eggs last Fill crusts two-thirds full and bake un- til the pumpkin custard is set and the top is golden brown. As no milk enters this pie, it will improve this pie to top it off with whipped cream, sweetened with powdered sugar and favored with teaspoon of vanilla or dash of cinna- mon.

Deep Soil Is Required for Growing Licorice

Licorice belongs to the pea and
bean tribe. In this country the plants
flower scarcely once In ten years. and
they do not ever appear to bear seed!
AS long ago as the Sixteenth century
licorice was first grown in Pontefract,
near Leeds. Pontefract possesses an
unusual depth of soil, without which
it is impossible to grow the plant.
The whole usefulness of the plant
lies In the root, which grows to a
depth of over six feet This contains
a substance known as glycyrrhizin,
and it is this transparent yellow juice
which gives licorice its medicinal quail
tiles and its distinctive flavor.
The plants are propagated by sets
or stools something in the style of
rhubarb, and in Pontefract these sets
are guarded with the utmost care.
Nowadays there are probably not more
than eight or ten growers
The roots often take five years to
mature, and for the first two or three
years other vegetables are grown be-
tween the rows of licorice.
In its raw form licorice looks rath-
err like dark kind of glue. 1t Is
boiled down In cauldron with treacle
and sugar to give 1t the desired flavor.
