am and timely opportunity of Inspect
ing the handsome establishment of J. P.
Allen A Co., at 61-B3 Whltchall-«t., on
Tuesday morning, when the new place
was thrown open to the public. The
smnrt women of Atlanta thronged the
store from early morning till night,
ragprly viewing the beautiful display of
gowns, tailored afternoon and evening
models, blouses of all styles and kinds
and wrap* for day-time and evening
wear. On the opening day of this es
tablishment magnificent floral decora
tions of Amerlcnn Beauty and while
roses, long slender vases of goldenrpd
and Jardiniere* of palms added to the
attractiveness of the handsomo rooms.
The display of woman's outer robes for
the coming season gave one a clear and
Interesting Idea of the radically new
styles. And what we had suspected Is
ali too true! No more wearing of last
spring's gown for the early fall months
no more donning of the last season’s
left-over blouses, unless one has the
courage to bear the stamp of "old-
fashioned.''
J. P. Allen & Co. enrry all lines of
women's ready-to-wear gowns, coats
and blouse*. The display Includes mag
nificent afternoon gowns In velvet and
braided cloth, evening gowns In chif
fons, satins and silks, blouses of net
and lace and linen. A complete line Is
shown of beautiful Imported models
and also of the best popular-priced
suits and blouses. From an Inspec
tion of the costumes seen at the new
store, a forecast of the season's styles
shows that the long coats will prevail
In tailored gowns. The street gowns
used for shopping nre severe, but the
afternoon gowns are elaborate with hand
embroidery and braided patterns ap
plied by hand. A handsome Imported
model In an afternoon gown of tailored
style Is of taupe broadcloth, made In
the dlrectolre style, with an opening
diagonally down the front, adorned with
black satin buttons, and a looped cord
at each button. A yoke of cream lace
finishes the top of the gown, and'over
It Is worn a long coat, elaborately
braided. Another afternoon gown, of
velvet, had the coat and skirt magnifi
cently hand embroidered In heavy silk
flower*. Some of these gowns show the
Louis XI vest, the model* of Dnueet
being especially prone to the vest front.
The evening gowns of J. P. Allen A
Co. are very lovely. A Paquln model
