Some men ull'—p.;;uu. some sell
silks,
And others lemons sour;
But C. T. Bramlet's specialty
Is “Airy Fairy” Flour. &
He says it makes delicious bread
And biscuits, light and fluffy;
So take his tip and buy a bit
And never more get huffy.

~ “The House of Kutz.”
~ No, this is not a!Parts 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
lhau, 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 have something that the entire
Southeast is going to be mighty
proud to get. 3
Elyea Company
¢
~ Gets Good Start
| In Present Year
A good start has been made for
11920, Quite a nice Increase in busi
. ness has been enjoyed by Elyea Com
pany this January over January of
last year. 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 and distraction that
has been caused 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 wnas fortunate in
receiving quite liberal shipments of
hicycles 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
relief in sight from higher 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 spring requirements will
not only save money, but a lot of in
convenience, The year 1919 was an
excellent year for the bicyele dealer
and 1920 should be much better,
The amount of business done by
Elyea Company in the automotive
equipment line during January was
most satisfactory. This department
showed a very substantial Increase
over the same month last yvear. Elab
orate preparations are being made for
a banner year in the automotive
equipment line. Orders from local
dealers have been especially heavy.
| This, it is belteved, is due largely to
the efforts of A. J. (Jack) Milstead, |
Elyea Company's wide-awake city
salesman. Mr, Milstead has been
with this company for a number of
years and 18 most excellently equipped
to take care of this particular trade.
He hag 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 iln this de
partment are very gratifying.
The Barnes-Fain Company is now
official agent for the Schlitz-Famo.
There is to be some competition this
corning spring. Where are Kovar,
Nib, Cook's Goldblume and some oth
ers? \

i 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
Inear future, was brought out this
'week in the announcement of the
Southern Photo Material Company
{that it expected to make application
soon for a revigion of its charter
and authorization to increase its cap
|ital stock to SIOO,OOO,
| This action has been made neces
gary by the phenomenal growth of
|this progressive concern and the re
"qulremon!s of its expanding business,
{ In discussing the contemplated
charter revision, K. H. Goodhart, sec
|retary and treasurer of the company,
'reminisced while he spoke of future
|plans.
| “Ed 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
|lanta’s future. Codpled with this and a
firm conviction that customers
wanted what they wanted when they
wanted it, we began to ship photog
raphers in th 4 South photographic
supplies when they wanted them, and
{today our business stands as a mon
lument to the ‘square deal’ and a pol
|icy of service inaugurated at our be
|ginming.
|SOON MOVED, THOUGH.
| “From the Broad street beginning
/we moved at the end of about five
|years into the wholesale district and
|lat 22 Central avenue for several
|years we conducted the only photo
|graphie 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 eame activeiy in
\as president of our company, which
|position he holds today and to whose
|sagacious foresight much of our
|progress is due. G
| “At the beginming of the war, how
lever, uncertain transportation and
lunsettied conditions in the raw ma
|terials markets made it impossible
for us profitably to . continue the
the manuffitnm of mounts, so we
|sold our pMnt to the A. M. Collins
| Manufacturing Company, of Phila
/delphia, and entered into an agree
ment with them whereby we be
lcame the sole jobbers of Collins
imounts in the Southern States,
| “Moving from the wholesale d&is
triet in 1917 into the retail district
lat 72 North Broad street, and add
iing a retail kodak and supply de
partment along with general novel
|ties and the best kodak finishing
|laboratory in this part of the coun
try, we have grown steadily until
lwith the addition of our Victrola
|department a few months ago, we
have, kind of like Atlanta herself,
loutgrown our clothes and must get
|some new and larger omes in the
form of a new charter.
IOTHER DEPARTMENT GROWING.
“Our Victrola department, which,
by the way, is coming to be regard
'led as Victrola headquarters, just as

Georgia Marble is looked upon with
favor by the leading architects and
sculptors throughout the country, and
the demand for this stone is now
and has for some time past far ex
ceeded the ability of its owners to
get it out of the gquarries. -
Plans have been under way for
some time now to enlarge the work
ing force and increase the mechanical
equipment with a view to having the
output equal the demand.
l‘demandl of their increased and en

and 85 Peachtree street, which will

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

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 avenue,
where it will he ready for business
this week. Everything will be unger
one roof and modernly arranged.
