Atlanta New York Paris
Announcing the Most Important Millinery Event
of This or Any Other Season
168 Hats From The Estelle Mershon Shop, New York
At $2.50 and $5.00
These hats were priced, according to their worth, from SB.OO to -
$35.00. We believe the women of Atlanta will appreciate the busi
ness stroke that brought them here for $2.50 and $5.00, for it means
that tomorrow when you visit the millinery department you will find
in the big crystal cases the hats of this moment’s style along that
very critical Fifth Avenue--and at $2.50 and $5.00.
This event is possible only because of our connections with the
Estelle Mershon Shop. We know of no other store in the South
that can offer its patrons any such opportunity.
And the hats are just those smart, new, chic styles that are so rare
at this season--they come as a distinct change from the styles of the
early spring, as a delightful novelty for those who require a new hat for
traveling.
There are Milans, Leghorns and 1 lemps, in shades of blue, brown,
tan, green and black, trimmed in as many ways as there are hats,
with flowers, feathers, velvets, silks—a great deal of shot taffeta is used.
The shapes are usually medium and small.
Seventy-five are $2.50; ninety-three are $5.00.
Let every woman who is considering a new hat see these!

four years ago, and became popular as
a singer. He now has the reputation
of being the highest salaried moving
picture show singer in the world. His
bride is a musician, too, and has ap
peared in public several times.
FINDS ALPHABET USED
LONG BEFORE PHENICIAN
LONDON, July 22.—1 n a lecture at
the Royal institute, Professor Flinders
Petrie has attacked the long accepted
theory that the origin of the alphabet
is to be found in Phenicla, whence it
came from Egyptian hieroglyphics. Ac
cording to Professor Petrie the re
searches of the last twenty years have
shown that signs were earlier than
pictures and that it. was the sign that
survived to become the alpha and beta
of one civilization and the A B C of
another.
