PAPERS! THEY’RE ALL HERE,
FROM LONDON TO ’FRISCO
WORLD NEW8 COMPANY’S HEADQUARTER8.
When visitors from other cities come
to Atlanta after Thursday they won’t
have that homesick feeling caused by
not being able to read their home pa
pers. For on and after Thursday a
visitor here will be able to get his pa
per, no matter from what part of the
Union or from what foreign country he
happens to hail from.
At that time the World News Com
pany, composed of two hustling young
men who have sold papers all their
lives, will open business in Marietta
street, between Broad and Peachtree
streets, and In their push cart will be
found papers from all the country and
the world.
These two young men are J. W. Co
hen and T. O. O'Mara, and their coming
to Atlanta Is due to Mayor Joyner.
They were In Memphis when the mayor
was over there with the pennant-win
ning Atlanta team, and it was from
them Mayor Joyner bought his Atlanta
papers every day. This idea of selling
papers from all the big cities of this
country and others struck Mayor Joyn
er as a good one, and he told the young
men what a big city Atlanta was and
of the thousands of people who visited
here from other cities.
The result was that Cohen and
O’Mara and their World News Com
pany decided to open up shop* here.
They came to Atlanta and made their
arrangements to open in Marietta
street, and their reason for selecting
this street between Broad and Peach
tree streets was a good one. They
point out that when visitors reach
town they generally go to the post-
office for their mall and then go to the
center of the city. Well, the World
News Company will “get ’em cornin’
and goin*.”
It will not matter if the visitor hap*
pens to come from Denver, San Fran
cisco, St. Paul, Toronto, London. Paris,
Madrid, Berlin or any other old town,
he can call upon the push cart of the
World News Company and find out
what’s doing among the home folks.
In addition to outside papers, the
World News Company will handle The
Georgian and other papers and peri
odicals.
This same plan of selling papers
from all over the country has made a
big hit in New York and other cities,
and it will All a long-felt want in At
lanta. Never a day passes but guests
of the various hotels try in vain to get
their home papers if they happen to
liye In cities other than a few of the
big ones.
