EX-PRESIDENT’S SON WON LONG DRIVING CONTEST i-U-.' 1 Popular Win on the Country Club Golf Links. Approaching and Putting Contest Also. The long-driving contest which was to have taken place at the Country Club last Saturday and was postponed until Saturday of this week on ac count. of the weather, was hurried up and held yesterday. This was owing to the numerous requests of winter visitors who are leaving this week and who wanted to play In the contest. The event was won by Charlie Taft, the 18-year-ohl son of ex-President Taft, who out-drove everybody else by a number of yards. Rach con testant drove three balls and the ag gregate distance of the three was counted as his score. If a hall went off the course It was counted as zero. Young Mr. Taft drove two of his three balls into the Bunker, which counted 250 yards, and the third within five or six yards of the same. It was a very popular win. The approaching and putting con test, booked for the same date as the long-driving, also took place yester day. In this women as well as men took part. There were separate prizes, however. The contest was played thus: The players each played two balls, from a little distance of the putting green, and the scores made with both balls were added to gether for their count. Messrs. Blythe, Witter and Dixon tied for first place, each making a score of fi, 3 with each ball In playing off Mr. Blythe again made a fi, securing the prize. Mrs Dixon won the ladies’ contest, wltti a 6, and came very near It making a 5 and beating all the men. Mrs. Dixon made a 4 and a 2, which was the only 2 marie yesterday. She had a very good chance for a 3 with the other ball, but her put stopped just short of the hole. THE BRIDE See "The Bride" Wardrobe Trunk. It Is a beauty.

An Atlanta society hud who attended the ’’Follies” last night was talking In horrified whis pers to a companion at n tango tea. “Would you believe it, in one of the acts those girls came out before the Tootlights with notning on but their shoes and stoeklngs and muffs'.” It sounded perfectly awful and she was soon surrounded by a bevy of folks who hadn’t been there. Stories like that soon spread, and presently, to the great scandal of Atlanta’s morals, the re,port was being spread broadcast. As the story went. It lost the muff, which made It sound still worse.

Ups#' Fiearettes have no equal in a domestic nickel cigarette. Thev are mild, because we specially selected the tobacco for Reyn os a long time ago and it has been allowed to ripen thoroughly. This aging, together with skillful blending, secured by our 39 years’ experience in the tobacco business accounts for the excellent flavor of Reynos.
