•lHB ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS MONDAY. JULY I. lOTr. 3 THE ATLANTA SPIRIT OF LIBERALITY TLANTA has created for Herself a splendid spirit of Liberality. Her citizens have given freely of their money, their time, their brains and their energy to the accomplishment of an unexcelled result. No worthy enterprise of benefit to the general citizenship has ever been known to fail. A willingness to co-operate, to work the one for the other, all for Atlanta’s up building, is characteristic of the Gate City of the new and progressive South. The Spirit of Liberality is infectious—is contagious. The people do unto the city as they would be done by; they help each other; they help new arriv als in their midst. Under such conditions ambition is born anew. Enthusiasm, personal and civic, pre vails. Persistency and energy, directed by in telligent citizenship and progressive business methods, bring success. YOU can be successful if you will but try. The first step is to come to Atlanta. She has extended a welcome to the manufacturer, the wholesaler, the retailer, the homeseeker, the in vestor, the wage-earner. She has promised to help them, You are one of them. She will help you. Her manufacturing advantages are many; Her location as the logical center of distribution is of great prestige to the jobber; Her attrac tions as a retail center are manifold; Her offer ings to the wage-earner are legion. We began business in Atlanta with the Georgia Railway and Electric Company and the Atlanta Gas Light Company many years ago. We immediately imbibed freely of the “Atlanta Spirit.’.’ There is no more helpful business tonic. It has been our pleasure to contribute in the best way we knew how to the upbuilding of the city. We have provided the Municipality Ideal with $12,000 worth of transportation annually, a courtesy extended to the police, detective and fire departments for a better protection of the business enterprises and the homes. It has been our pleasure to supply transportation, the esti mated value of which is $500 per month, to each of the daily papers, that they might secure quick and certain transportation for their pub lications in order to serve subscribers with the least possible delay. It has been our cheerful custom to subscribe $1,000 annually to the state fairs, frequently supplying electric current free that the grounds might be well lighted. We sought to contribute to the pleasure of the chil dren and animal lovers by subscribing $1,000 annually for five years to purchase animals for the zoo at Grant Park. It was the Atlanta Spirit of Liberality which prompted us to give $10,000 toward the fund necessary for the construction of the proposed handsome Armory-Auditorium. The same compelling force was at work when we subscribed $50,000 to the proposed 1910 ex position. We are ready at all times to con tribute to any enterprise for the general good. And all the time we gave the citizens an un excelled street railway service — clean cars, quick schedules, universal transfers, courteous treatment—bringing suburban property to within fifteen, twenty and thirty minutes of the heart of the business center. We supply electric current at prices as low as any company under similar conditions in the world. This is a special advantage to the manufacturer, be he of large or small propor tions, operating engines or sewing machines. Our gas plant affords every advantage for bus iness or household purposes—for power, light or cooking. You can operate your engine or your wife may cook your dinner without cook ing herself. In all departments we strive to supply the very best possible service at the very lowest possible cost to the consumer. If there is any complaint, we want to know it. An intelligent fault-finder frequently points the way to great er efficiency. And in the meantime if you desire any in formation concerning Atlanta and her manifold advantages we will furnish it cheerfully.
