PLOT III FUG
Scores Executive Committee for
Delaying Session and Setting
September 30 for Election.
Mayor James G. Woodward de
clared Monday that the conduct of
the City Executive Committee in fix
ing September 30 as the date * on
which the municipal primary election
is to be held is a conspiracy to force
snap judgment on the people of At
lanta.
“As it stands to-day,” said the
Mayor, “voters have just a little more
than two weeks in which to register.
The City Executive Committee met
last Saturday and fixed September 30
as the day to hold the primaries. The
registration books close September 9.
The executive committee should have
met around August 1 and the people
should have' had at least one month
in which to register. And in justice
to the various candidates—ten Coun-
cilmen and five Aldermen—they, too,
should have time in which to an
nounce and get into the race.”
“This is a matter of vital impor
tance t*> citizens of Atlanta, and it
is imperative that all voters should
register at once. If they neglect this
duty they will wake up to find that
they have been walked over and trod
den down by smooth politicians.
“It is to be hoped that each voter
will take an interest in the election
and do his part in electing a man
from his ward to Council that will
not only serve the people in their
interests, but a man who is compe
tent to really accomplish this.
“The City Executive Committee
has seen fit to fix a date for the
primaries, which is nearly a month
earlier than the date fixed last year
October 20. The real election does
not take place until the first Wednes
day in December, and there is plenty
of time yet, and there was abso
lutely no need of fixing the date of
the primaries on such short notice.”
American Dances
Stir London Church
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, Aug. 25.—British news
papers to-day devoted much space to
the sermon of Canon Newbolt in St.
Paul’s Cathedral yesterday afternoon
when he bitterly attacked such dances
as the turkey trot and the tango. In
part he said:
"Would indecent dances, suggestive
of evil and destructive of morals, dis
grace our civilization if professed
Christians were to say, 'I will not
allow mv daughter to turn into Sa
lome even if Herod were to give me
half his kingdom and admit ine to
a high and much coveted society that
has managed to persuade itself that
immorality is artistic?’ This is an
age which mocks at marriage and In
sists upon sex topics for boys and
girls.” •
Three More Noted
Organists Coming

citals” of the Atlanta Music Fes

Johnson stated Monday morning that
“yqung Smith’s car got beyond his

Johnson’s car was not damaged bv

Surprising How Many Women Are Selecting
Fall Suits These Days
Their
Time was when it would have been considered “rushing the
season” to select a fall suit in August.
But customs change with time and what was impracticable
a few years ago is a very sensible thing to do now—and so smart
women who concern themselves with the new styles while they
are still new are turning to the well-filled crystal cases of our suit
department and are choosing with a fine sense of satisfaction
their fall suits.
That choosing with such satisfaction might not he possible
in every store at this season we will not argue, but that it Impossi
ble here is a matter you may prove by a few minutes’ visit to the
Suit Department.
The style tendencies for fall are well developed now, there is
nothing to wait for in that respect—and they are novel and inter
esting and varied.
Novel and interesting from many viewpoints. There are
draped cutaway coats, there are cutaway coats that button close
up to the neck, there are cutaway coats with “dug
out” collars and others that have the semblance of a
blouse—all different from styles we have known.
And coats are to be longer this fall; they measure 38
to 42 inches, but—and to the pleasure of the woman of
slight stature—often the cutaway effect robs them of the
appearance of being long.
Never were styles more generally becoming!
Many of the skirts are slashed, many are draped in
one way and another.
Materials show the new scheme of things. Soft fin
ished fabrics are prominent, velour cloths self-striped,
crepons, ratine striped fabrics and bayadere poplins,
trimmings often take a contrasting shade and again the
use of embroidered velvet is pronounced on collars, cuffs
and skirts.
What are the colors? !
See with your own eyes! Naming the mahogany,
cinnamon, prune, amethyst, Copenhagen and navy shades is but poor apology for their
richness and beauty.
This is a worthy display of the new suit fashions, one that a woman may approach
with the confidence that the suit she selects will be an authentic style.
