'Give Women Time and They’ll
£e Sorry They Ever Had Right
to Vote,” Says Ex-Champion,
DENVKR, May 14—John I. Sulli-
' Kii; ex-w orld’v champion of the priz<
ring, has given out a new set of
aphorisms that he vvis-hos the vorld
to read—"and read prayerfully”—as
he expresses it. in an interview in this
» city. He says:
Children are not what they were
twenty-five years ago.
Women are afraid of being
mothers on account of losing their
figures.
There's too much highfalutin*
nonsense to-day about raising
children.
Money is a curse and it curses
those who have it.
We shouldn't be too severe on
the rich, for we don’t know what
mental suffering they go through.
I would rather be John L. Sulli
van that John D. Rockefeller.
Drink never abused anybody;
it’s people who abuse drink.
Give children practical, not
theoretical education.
Every man has to sow wild
oats—and sometimes women do.
Give women time enough and
they’ll be sorry they ever had the
right to vote.
Knows “Where He's At.”
John L., who gays he always knows
“where he’3 at” since he stopped try
ing to reduce the supply of strong
drink, twelve years ago, took a deep
whiff of tne mile-high atmosphere,
and leaned back in an easy chair at
the hotel, and waded into an inter
view with as much earnestness as he
ueed to display when delivering short-
arm jabs.
"We’re always reading about the
crime of bringing children into the
world of poverty," he said. "That’s
nonsense. Kids that have to hustle
with life from the start mak^, better
tt’cm and women than the gold-spoon,
silk-glove variety.
"I haven’t much patience with all
this new -fangled nonsense about chil
dren. People have been born and
raised in the old-f tshioned way for
enturies. and I think the output of
old times was superior to that of
the present. None of this modern
# theoretical nonsense for tne!
Men “Seed Planters.”
. . "And another thing, there’s only one
/ real school—that’s experience. Of
course, the men are the original seed
planters, and when their harvesting
time comes they often mow down a
lot of innocent women and children:
but you might talk your head off. ii
would do no good—they have got to
have the genuine experience.”
Of woman suffrage, John 1,. said:
} "Women have the right to vote out
'.here in Colorado because they w^re
/smart enough to put it over on the
men 1 don’t see what women want
political offices anyway.
"I’ve had a pretty eventful Hfe and
I’ve had mine, all right. 1 '-haven’t
toched a drop of liquor for twelve
years, but I had to learn ii was a los
ing game before I quit. More people
die of eating than they do of drink,
and you don’t hear of any anti-eating
unions, do you?”
The ex-champion says he Is in
hearty sympathy with the people of
California against the Japs.
"1 know what I am talking about.
I ve been in Japan. It’s a laYid of
cherry blossoms and immorality, and
our own WilTiam Jennings Bryan
would have learned a few things K
he had stayed in Sacramento long
enough.”
Guthrie Approved
As Envoy to Japan
WASHINGTON, May 14. The ap
pointment of George W. Guthrie, of
Pittsburg. Pa., to be Ambassador to
Japan was approved by the Senate

prominence in the public eye as the
"reform” Mayor of Pittsburg, in 1906
he defeated Alexander M. Jenkinson,
the "millionaire” candidate for the
mayoralty, and from that time until
the end of his term in 3909 he kept
.the politicians of Pittsburg in a con-
V’stant turmoil.

ATLANTA NEW YORK
PARIS
An Elegant Exposition of the New Fashions in
Summer Dresses
In Which All the New Fabrics and All the New Styles Come in for Proper Appreciation
We might, and very properly, term this an opening. It shows all the credentials of such an event. It holds
a greater number of interesting features than any formal opening Atlanta has ever been invited to at this season.
Chiefly because there have been evolved this season more interesting fashions and then because our dress buyer,
.just returned from New York, has outdone himself. He chose with a free hand, lavishly, in a way that, now that the
dresses are here, insures every woman a dress to her liking. As lie forcibly puts it, “This is the greatest line
ever brought to Atlanta,” and the confident way he emphasizes it is very impressive. But you shall decide that.
1 n this display are:
Simple Morning Presses, More Elaborate Afternoon and Party Dresses and Still
More Elaborate Evening Dresses
But they are not the dresses that former summers have brought!
The materials are different, the styles are different, and, we warrant, to
your pleasure.
The cry is for novelties. Even the 1 east expensive little frocks have the ap
pearance of exclusiveness. It may he a matter of a bit of colorful eihbroidery,
or the use of net forming a yoke, or the d rape of a skirt or the way a sleeve is set
in, or it may he due to the fact that the waist is in some dark shade and the skirt
white.
For morning and street wear there are beautiful dresses of crepes, of linens, of ratines, of
voiles, and each of these is divided into many kinds—plain and figured crepes, ramie and French
linens, striped, checked and plain ratines and the like in seemingly endless variety.
Among the evening dresses, wherein the Paris touches become more numerous, the voiles
and cotton crepes claim first attention. They are plain, they are embroidered, they are
in stripes and cheeks and “snowflakes,” and among these you will find the hand-made
tucks, the hand-embroidery and the wonderful shadow, eluny, macrame and Venetian
laces that women delight in.
But reading of these things will not suffice the woman whose summer wardrobe
is first in her thoughts. See!
We would but emphasize here the elaborate way we have gone at the dress ques
tion this summer.
There are more and prettier dresses t o choose from than you have grown ac
customed to expect.
Prices Go Very Gradually From $5.00 Through $7.50 and Up
to $25.00, $30.00 and $35.00
And there will be many a surprise in store for von, too, after you have admired a
dress to note the price ticket. Dresses look to be worth more than their price.
But again we sav—See! .
A Fine Buy Brings $25 Dresses at $18.50
The material is crepe, that holds a high place
among the materials fashionable this season.
You will see at once that they are $25 values.
Dainty, altogether eha ruling!
One style is of white crepe with ?i wide hand <>i
Dresden crepe—several colors—at the bottom of the
skirt, outlined with a fold o f solid color to match in
with the Dresden coloring; the same colors show in
the collar and cuffs and the little vest and the satin
belt, which is set off with a pearl buckle.
Not enough of these to make delays safe; .just a
little lot very fortunately bought.
New Spring Coats and Wraps
For afternoon and evening wear with light dresses the
high novelty right now ;ind an inexpensive novelty is the Ter
ry cloth coat.
These are in plain shades—usually light—and in two-
toned effects. You will like them.
Thev are short, “blouse-y" affairs, priced at $8.75 to
$15.00.
Then come the richer and more luxurious moire and eliar-
meuse wraps in white, black and colors, and the ratines in col
ors and the white serges in splendid variety of trimmings and
lengths. These from $15 to $35.
And the automobilist and traveler will enjoy the prepara
tions made for them.
Splendid linen coats at $3.95 and $4.95; mohair, pongee
and rajah coats at $7.50. $10 to $18.50.
