Colonel Thomas Holland, sec ond in cower in the Salvation Army of the United States, ar rived tin Atlanta, ia, TuckIiv, where lie "is making his future home. With the coming of Lol Holland to At'anta, says the Lon stitution, the Saivaiion Army in the South wil he mven a new impetus. This city will be made Southern headquarters, Colone Holli.nd bting in rommund of the army in al! of the Southern States And not only is the movement to be pushed with greater energy now that the South is given the second man in power, but new lines of work are lo be inaugur ated. Beginning right here in Atlanta a negro corps will be or ganized to be run entirely sepa rate from the white army just as nccro and white churches are conducted. It has long been thought by leading men in the army in the North thut there was a great work to be done among the ne irroes in the Southern cities. The officers of tho army have discu-sed tho idea of putting men in the Id to organize necro corps in the large cities of the South, and this will be a part of Colonel 1 lol and s work lho negro arnn will have nothing whatever to do viih the white armies. Ihcy will have their own leadens bands and uniforms, and their solo relation to the regular white armies will be that their work will be carried along on the same lines, tho ne gro corps working iimor.g the lowly of the negro race. Ihere has been much conjee furc us to whether a negro army could be organized and main taincd Coloi.el Holland will get to work shortly after he estab lishes heiidquartcrs here and see what can be done on that line. If he is successful he will go to other Southern cities and organ ize armies among the negroes The Salvation Army is to be advamed in the South on every line of work. Colonel Holland takes up Southern headquarters with the purpose in iew to m.ke the Southern armies compare favorably with the Northern ar mies. He will inaugurate new lines of work for the Southern armies, work that is being done in the large Northern cities. For inhtance, he will establish food and shelter houses in the large ISouthern cities. With the exception of Louisville, there is very little of this k.nd of work done by Southern Armies. The rescue work will be pushed more than ever before and more corps are to be organized in cities in every Southern State. Corps will be organized in Ma con, Augusta, Savannah and oth er (ieorgi.i cities. There are now only two corps in this'State At lanta and Columbus. In other States corps will be organized under the supervision" of Colonel Holland, who will travel all over the South. Christmas of Childhooo Days. 'My f rst thought of Christmas," says Lil lie Devereux Blake, is of the great playroom at my grand mother s. where we children gath ered tor our evening fro!it; of the fun we had in the warmth and light, while sleet struck its icy fingers acrcss the windows or the hoar frost covered the ".lass with fantastic lines of beauty; of the faced of thore gathered there, so young then, that are growing old now or have faded from this world forever. Then there comes a wi.ier vision of the Christmas of the world, of the j iy bells ringing in many lands for the feast of love and good w ill, of the henrti made happy by the gifts, the kindlinei-s, the good cheer that brings light to tbe humblest hom.-, so that there i hardly any bnng so for lorn that some ray of brightness does not reach him Then yet again, and deeper, is the reflec tion of what the festival meitns. It is the celebration of the eternal miracle a materi ity, the wonder of birth into the activities ot thi world, that has been in all ages and by al' peoples observed at some period as an occasion for gladness ; the welcome those al ready h;re give the new born soul to the brief, passionate years of human happiness and human despair that we call life."
