“The House of Kutz."” |
Nao, this is not a Paris house—it's
right here in good old Atlanta-—but
it is just as classy as any wholesale
millinery house in the far-famed
Paris, New York, or anywhere else.
It is because they've got a line of
hats, trimmings and ribbons that is
better to see than to describe. And
seeing all of it turns this February
weather into a balmy May day.
Mr. Palmer, president, and Mrs.
Kitchings, vice president, have used
rare judgment. They’'ve not only put
their house over the top with a beau
tiful display of spring styles but
they haye something that the entire
Southeast is going to be mighty
proud to get. ¢
Elyea Company
Gets Good Start
| In Present Year
| bl
} A good start has *been made for
1920, Quite a nice increase in busi
-ness has been enjoyed by Elyea Com
‘pany this January over January of
last vear. Taking into consideration
the fact that three of their men have
lost quite a good part of the month
on account of sickness, and also the
inconvenience gnd distraction that
- has been cnupe% by the extensive re
modeling that has been done, Elyea
Company feels very good over the
amount of business done by, them
during January.
. Elyea Company was fortunate in
receiving quite liberal shipments of
bicyeles during January and this en
abled them to clean up a lot of old
back orders. They expect more nice
shipments during February and
should be in excellent shape to take
care of early spring business in this
department, There seems to be no
rellef in sight from hifhvr prices and
continued hold ups of orders by the
factories. In Elyea Company’s opin
jon, the dealers who place their or
ders now for soring requirements will
not only save money, but a lot of in
convenience, The year 1919 was an
excellent year for the bicycle dealer
and 1920 should be much better.
THe amount of business done by
Elyed Company in the automotive
equipment line during January was
most satisfactory. This department
showed a very substantial increase
over the same month last year. Klab
orate preparations are being made for
a banner vear in the automotive
equipment line. Orders from local
dealers have been especially heavy.
This, it is believed, is due largely to
the efforts of A. J. (Jack) Milstead,
Elyea Company's wide-awake city
salesman. Mr. Milstead has Dbeen
with this company for a number of
years and is most excellently equipped
to take care of thig particular trade.
He has a new “Flivver” and is out
among them every day, from morn
ing till night. He is well known and
has a host of friends in all lines of
the automobile business in Atlanta.
The results he has gotten in this de
partment are very gratifying. |

' Further evidence of the growth and
prosperity of Atlanta’s business con
cerns, and the city's destination to
be the trade center of the Southeast
‘with a half million population in*the
near future, was brought out this
‘week in the announcement of the
Southern Photo Material Company
that it expected to make application
soon for a revision of its charter
and authorization to increase its cap
ital stock to SIOO,OOO.
This action has been made neces
sary by the phenomenal growth of
this progressive concern and the re
quirements of its eamnding business.
In discussing the contemplated
charter revision, E. H. Goodhart, sec
retary and treasurer of the company,
reminisced while he spoke of future
plans,
“KEd Tompkins and 1 started the
Southern Photo Material Company
twenty years ago in a little “pigeon
hole’ on Broad street,” said Mr.
Goodhart. “Our capital mostly was
sheer ‘nerve and a great faith in At
danta’s future. Coupled with thisand a
firm conviction that customers
wanted what they wanted when they
wanted it, we began to ship photog
raphers in the South photographic
supplies when they wanted them, and
today our business stands as a mon
ument to the ‘square deal’ and a pol
icy of service inaugurated at our be
ginning.
SOON MOVED, THOUGH.
) “From the Broad street beginning
'we moved at the end of about five
years into the wholesale district and
‘nt 22 Central avenue for several
years we conducted the only photo
graphic mount factory in the South,
along with the wholesale jobbing of
photographic supplies. It was when
‘we began our mount manufacturing
that R. A. Hemphill came actively in
as president of our company, which
position he holds today and to whose
;saga(‘,h)ua foresight much of our
progress is due.
; “At the beginning of the war, how
‘ever, uncertain transportation and
unsettled conditions in the raw ma
terials markets made it impossible
for us profitably to continue the
the manufacture of mounts, sv we
sold our plant to the A. M. (ollins
'Manufacturing Company, of Phila
delphia, and entered into an agree
ment with them whereby we, be
‘came the sole jobbers of Collins
'mounts in the Southern States,
“Moving from the wholesale dis
trict in 1917 into the retail district
at 72 North Broad street, and add
|ing a retail kodak and supply . de
| partment along with general novel-
Ities and the best kodak finishing
|labnramry in this part of the coun
[try, we have grown steadily until,
| with the addition of our Victrola
{department a few months ago, we
have, kind of like Atlanta herself,
joutgrown our clothes and must get
|some new and larger ones in the
|form of a new charter.
{OTHER DEPARTMENT GROWING.
“Our Victpola department, which,
by the way, is coming to be regard
ed as Vietrola headquarters, just as

dry goods, was up and busy the latter |
part of the week filling orders. This |
house is continually at that, for they |
have got a group of salesmen that
know the art of selling and there- |
fore never let a week pass without i
turning in some worth while orders. |
Mr. Barnwell, vice president, is
somewhat of an admirer of this sales /

he begins to talk about his sales force, |
and after all is said this is a part of
the wholesale house that deserves to |

rare judgment to be used in the buy

Hunter-Adams Co.'s
Millinery Line Is
A Mass of Style
The Hunter-Adams Wholesale Mil
linery Company announced Saturday
that everything is in fit shape for
their big spring opening to be held
in the Kimball House, room 362, be
ginning this week. Hunter Adams is
looking after the displays in person,
and announced that it will be the
most unique display of’its kind he
has ever been interested in. Mr.
L’Engle stated that the display em
bodies the most varied line of hats
he had ever seen and expects, there
fore, an unusual business from the
moment their doors for the spring
opening are announced as ready for
business.
This concern has great things in
store, as their business during the
last year grew to such an extent that
more spacious quarters were neces
sary. The firm, therefore, has leased
new quarters at 34 Madison avenye,
where it will be ready for busin}s
this week. Everything will be under
one roof and modernly arranged.
