Chamberlin=JohnsoirDußose Co. ATLANTA NEW YORK PARIS THE NEW “Be not the first by whom the new are tried, Nor yet the last to lay the old aside. No need of worrying now about being the first to try the new. Your consideration is—will you be the last to lay the old aside? Will you, when everything is now ready, when there is so much in this store that is new to claim your attention? The season begins to urge you on now—soon it will be getting late. The problems of style are all proved. The answers we submitted more than a month ago stand verified by the powers and authorities that be—in Paris and in New York. Every little detail that makes of shopping a pleasure and a joy is arranged—the weather man has even contributed a crisp atmosphere. Yours now to choose—to choose from stocks and styles more elaborate and more beautiful than were ever spread before the women of Atlanta. What pleasure is in store for the woman in search of a suit! It seems agreed that the suit fashions this season are more charming and more becoming than ever—-there is a greater variety, a greater latitude! What more does a smart woman want than this freedom of selection that she will enjoy here? There are literally hundreds of styles here and each one—we would emphasize this—here by right of merit. They are integral parts; were they lacking, completeness would be lacking. Is there any need—or possibility—of telling you of the marks of these new styles, of the new materials, the new colors, the new cutaway coats, the new Robespierre collars, the new braidings, the smartness, the trimness, the becomingness? Fortunately it is not our words about them that count. It is the fact that they are here and ready that is telling. And what woman would fail to see such a display of all that is new in suits? Certainly not she who is in the least interested in the fashions. But why so much about suits, when so many i other departments are clamoring for the same recognition? There is no reason. It is enthusiasm, the enthusiasm that comes of readiness and of ability to serve, and therefore an enthusiasm that permeates the whole store and might just as truly have been expressed about the dresses, the waists, the millinery, the dress goods, the silks, the trimmings and the laces and the like as about the suits.

WOODWARD Affidavits Submitted Which Prove Conclusively That Woodward’s Claim That He Has Reformed Is Not True. TO THE PUBLIC: In my speech at the Orpheum Theater Friday night, 1 charged that Mr. Jas G. Woodward, candidate for mayor, had been drunk in the office of M. B. Young some time during March of this year. Side by side with the published account of my remarks in The Constitution Saturday morning there appeared a statement signed by Mr. Woodward in which he denied this charge in very bitter and offensive language. I have today been furnished with an affidavit, signed by Mr. Young, in which he substantiates my charge, together with an affidavit from another gentleman, in further corroboration of the fact that Mr. Woodward was drunk. Now as to my charge that Mr. Woodward insulted a fellow member in one of Atlanta’s leading clubs. Mr. Woodward’s reply to this charge was partly an adroit evasion, and partly a demand that I produce “The Record Proof.” As there was no stenographer present to take down the exact lan guage of Mr. Woodward, and no phonograph at hand to record his insults, “record proof” would be impossible. However, 1 have been furnished with an affidavit setting out all the horrible details of the insults heaped upon a fellow-member and his family by Mr. Woodward. rhe contents of this document, as can readily be understood, make it unfit for publication; but I shall be glad to submit it to any citizen, in whose mind there may be the slightest doubt as to the truth of my charge. The affidavits in reference to Mr. Woodward’s drunkenness in the office of Mr. M. B. Young, follow. JAS. L. KEY. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 28. 1912. GEORGIA, FULTON COUNTY. In person appeared before me the undersigned, M. B. Young, who, upon oath says that his office adjoins that of J. G. Woodward in the Empire Building, that at some time during the past winter, and I think during February, Mr. Woodward came into my office drunk. I kept him in my private office as long as I could to keep him away from public observation, his office being rather public. He fell asleep sitting in a chair in my office. There was prepared a bottle of whiskey with ipicac in it. The purpose of this was that if he persisted in drinking any more, it would make him sick. I worked with him in my office and in his office trying to sober him up and trying to persuade him to desist. He went to sleep, finally, in a chair in his office, and 1 remained here for several hours after all the offices had closed waiting for him to wake up. 1 kept in touch with his office either in person or by phone until after 12 o’clock. T offered to get a vehicle and take him home. I was informed he did not get away from his office until 1:30 in the morning. He remained away from his office for about seven teen days as I recollect. I had in my office at that time a young lady cashier, now in Denver, Colorado, who witnessed these facts up to 5 o’clock. 1 have been Mr. Woodward's personal and political friend in the past, as hundreds of people know. I have spent time and money in his behalf in both of his last campaigns, using my office as a campaign headquarters, with out hope or expectation of any reward, and have regarded him as a friend who would not try to injure another to cover a fault of his own. I have made personal enemies in my efforts to serve him. I am the last person in the world to harm anyone. .Justice requires that T give the facts, let the result be what they may. Circumstances have forced me to make this statement against my wishes, for up to this time Mr. Woodward and I have been personal friends. What I have stated are facts, but for certain reasons I have refrained from stating all the facts connected with this unfortunate affair. I can furnish the names of others who know of this occurrence. (Signed) M. B. YOUNG. Sworn to and subscribed before me this September 28th, 1912. J. E. LEE. (Seal) Not Ary Public, Fulton County, Ga. GEORGIA. FULTON COUNTY. In person appeared H. 11. Moor, who. upon oath, says that he has an of fice adjoining James G. Woodward, on the 6th floor of the Empire building. That he has occasion to see Mr. Woodward casually in passing: that dur ing this year and the latter part of the winter he saw Mr. Woodward around his office# and he had the appearance of drinking. It was a common rumor about the building that Mr. Woodward had been drinking. I am a neigh bor of Mr. M. B. Young and I know him to be a clean, upright gentleman. (Signed) 11. H. MOOR.
