Atlanat made some noise Wednesday in
welcoming the auto tourists and then
some more noise.
Among the noise makers was the Allan
ia Steel company. with its gigantic whis-
tie which is supplied by a direct steam
pipe two and half inches in diameter,
This whistle was tied down 20 minutes
and a flood Of steam beloved through
its siren lios.
The Atlanta Steel company also had
four other whistles going full blast at the
same time-about as much noise as that
part of Fulton county ever heard at one
time before in its history.
BUT there were other whistles-north,
east, south and west They all blew their
best-almost blew their brass lungs out
and kept on blowing.
1t was a great tribute to the hospitality
Of Atlanta and the interest of the great
