Col. John Temple Graves Makes
Principal Speech at Banquet

Association at the Ansley.
Declares State's Hostelries Have
Attained Success Because the
Owners Meet Needs of Travel
ers—Tribute to Slaton.
Ascribing the “raps" and ''knocks''

“which the hotels of Qeprgla have a I
talned a degree of convenience unri

►Saturday night.
Colonel Graves spoke as the repre
sentative of Governor Slaton,- who wo?
prevented from being present by a
business engagement. The banquet
brought to a close the most success
ful annual meetirig in the history of
the association.
“I suppose,” said Colonel Graves,
“ that I have been the guest at Geor
gia hotels more times in my 'fe than
any other person, and the puzzle of t
is that I am still living.
Obligation to Travelers.
‘I measure my escape by the
breadth of a hair, and yet 1 continue

times have changed them—times, and
the Commercial Traveling Men’9 As
sociation.
"To the traveling men who traverse
this State Georgia owes an obligation
which can never be paid in the mak
ing of its hotels. These men, by their
continual hammering, have driven tJhe
scanty meal, .the hard bed and the tin
washtub from Georgia hotels.
‘The drummer, as he is sometimes
called, has made the public hostelries
of this State institutions which can
not be equaled in the United States.”
Colonel Graves naid a touching trib
ute to. H. 1. Kimball, builder of the
Kimball flouse, and pioneer hotel man
of Georgia.
Kimball the Leader.
“To H. I. Kimball,” said, the orator,
'the hotel men of this State should
attribute a great place in their profes
sion as the man who llrst responded
tq the demands of the commercial
traveler and *et a pace which his
made our hotels what they are to
day.
"In closing,” said Colonel Graves, ‘ 1
want to express- my pleasure at b-*-
ing here as the representative of tl.
man who is the life, the spirit and
the great leader of this Empire Stale
-onward in its path to the leadership
of the nation in patriotism, production
and commercial activity—Governor
John Al. Slaton.”
The banquet hall on the eleventh,
floor of the Ansley was beautifully
decorated in holly and roses. Columns
along either side of the great ro>m
formed a pagoda, which at the far
ehd was latticed off for a platform
for the musicians. Miss Mamie Cly-
burn rendered a program of solos
throughout the meal.

Look at it,.feel tlie fine linen surface; notice that the envelopes are those
that the woman of refinement would choose and the initial, a gold leaf letter,
heavy, put on by hand-worked steel die process. And the additional care that
has been taken shows very plainly—the initial is a Colonial style.
1'he boxes contain'one quire of paper and two dozen envelopes, or two dozen
correspondence cards and envelopes—all initials, to begin with—a condition that
will hardly last long—Berlin’s Best 50c Stationery is 37c.

The Flowers of France in These Perfumes
for Milady’s Christmas
There are some things we accept as authoritative ami final Among them must
be listed the perfumes that bear such nanfes as Coty, Rigand. Miro-Dena, lloulu-
gant, Roger & Gullet—and perhaps a half dozen or so more.
They have excelled—They have succeeded in giving 1o the world as no others
have, the true odors of French flowers.
They are here for mil$dy's Christmas in bottles and boxes that onlv the artistic
" French would ever conceive.
A daintier, a more pleasure-giving gift would be hard to imagine * or the
woman who does not the tine delicacy and the purity and fragrance of such
superior perfumes is a very unusual woman

And still this is but ono of the attractive features of'Cone’s Christmas Sta
tionery, which, we are told, is the most elegant in the city—we planned with that
idea in mind when collecting it. Ho those who would give stationery (what could
be more useful at the Christmas season^) will find the kinds that are correct,
that the “etiquette” of stationery would demand.
The prettiest gift boxes are those hand-painted by t,lie Japanese, beautiful
ly done, artistic, worthy of the quality of stationery the boxes contain. The
price range i> 4 $1.00 to $10.00, with great varieties at almost any in-between

Dependable Leather Goods to Give
Gifts in leather will always be popular.* There is- perhaps
uo product made that wears as well as leather, considering the
service required. For that reason we arc particular »o carry
leather goods of standard makes. The temptation to buy
leather lines for show is great. They look very much like th6
best, cost less and sell easily at Christmas time. The trick is
cutting the leather thin and making two pieces where one ex
isted before.
Of course the finished product is inferior. You have eonfi-
dence in our"stores. We propose to strengthen that confidence
by offering you in season and out dependable merchandise.
Herewith are a few numbers out of a hundred and fifty in our
stock—all useful and serviceable—as low as 25c and on upward
to $30.00. Something for anyone at a price that meets the
amount you have decided to spend.
