BIRMINGHAM WELL
ADVERTISED THROUGH
COREY PUBLICITY
Corey Land Company Has
Widely Made Known Re-
sourcs Of District
BIRMINGHAM SECOND ONLY
TO GARY, INDIANA, NOW
That Over $12,OOO,OOO Is Be-
ing Spent by One Compa-
ny for improvements
in Birmingham
Now Known
Everywhere

Birmingham has probably never had
such publicity as the advertising CAM
paign of Corey has given the city.
The campaign has cost several thousand
dollars, and it has been widespread, not
only covering the southern states like the
dew. but going into the north and east
AS a result the country is now talking
about Birmingham, the place where one
company is spending over s12,0OO,0oo for
improvements-and Corey. the southern
home of the United States Steel corpor-
alton.
We were glad to do this boosting for
Birmingham we were still "gladder'' to
be able to boost Birmingham as we have,
and "gladdest'' that Birmingham has the
great natural resources that enable us to
do such boosting.
Birmingham Publicity
While our advertisements have been
primarily to sell lots at Corey still our
announcements have been educational to
a large extent setting forth to the world
the resources of Birmingham as they
have been rarely pictured. Each has
helped the other, the greatness of Bir-
mingham adding new glory to Corey, and
the great future of Corey adding to the
greatness of Birmingham.
Not only have we done a great deal
of straight newspaper advertising. but
news stories, accepted by the newspapers
such because they appreciated the
great news value of a model city like
Corey have been sent to many parts of
the country, and these have been taken
up and copied by other newspapers, FORM
ing almost an endless chain of advertis-
ing for Birmingham.
People Are Interested
We claim no glory for the advertising
we have given Birmingham, but we feel
that the great mass of people in Bir-
mingham will be glad to know that Dir
mingham' and Corey are on the tongue
of thousands of people everywhere. If
there is merit in advertising-and we evil
IDENTIFY believe there is by the way we
indulge in it-Birmngham should reap inn
mediate and substantial returns from the
investment we have made In printers ink
Fortunately Birmingham has more to
advertise than any city In the south,
more natural resources, more new de-
velopments,' more actual cash being spent,
a brighter future, than any city in the
south, and when we sang the praises of
we we're able to do so with a clear con-
science, believing every word we said,
and more too. Just as we believe every
word we have written of Corey, and
more, too.
The city that stands second to Gary,
Ind, as an industrial community; Sec
ond in point of investments; second in
prospects-can well stands any amount
of advertising.

Applications Pour in by Tele-
gram, Special Delivery,
Mail and Special
Messenger
MANY PROMINENT MEN
PURCHASE COREY LOTS
Great Confidence Is Shown in
Corey by the Orders from
u People Who Have
= Never Seen the
Property


By telegram, by special delivery letter,
by regular mall by special messenger,
by personal calls-applieations have
poured into our office today for lots at
Corey.
1t has been phenomenal. Frankly, as
optimistic we were, we had not an
ticipated this demand for the property,
although we felt and still feel that it is
probably the best investment ever eff
fered to the public of Birmingham.
Over 10000 worth of tho property has
been applied for, and there is still the
big day-today. If the figures reach the
enormous proportions of $500, 900 we would
snot now be surprised.
This great demand for Corey has been
!, welcomed by JUS, not because of the finan-
= cial feature, but because of the great
confidence it has evidenced in the Bir-
rnnghan district and its real estate
values.
The best judges of real estate invest
ments, both in Birmingham and from
many other places, have applied for lots.
Some of the most prominent men in all
Alabama have sent in their applications,
showing that they consider this an op-
! portunity.
Corey Is Distinct
This great wave of applicants for lots
> has shown us more clearly than we
:. discriminating in the real estate it buys;
it has shown that people out of town
as well as people in Birmingham recog-
nize the policy of this firm never to lend
itself to anything that is not just as rep
resented and which does not have merit
throughout
The public has evidently been awakened
to the magnitude of the developments in
progress at and near Corey, to the amount
of over s12, $50 OO0-the largest sum being
spent for developments by any company
in any community in the United States,
with the exception of Gary, Ind.
VIII Reap Big Profits
We firmly believe, and our belief seems
to be thoroughly backed up by the facts
in the case, that those who purchase
lots at this sale will reap handsome re-
turns the investment as was the case
at Gary, Ind, where in four years time
the pioneer investors have realized as
much as 200 to lOO per cent on invest
ments; where lots that sold originally for
800 per front foot can not be bought now
for $1,000 and $500 per front foot.
We believe that the history of Ensley
and Birmingham will be repeated, and i.
more. The early investor at Ensley has
become rich by merely holding the prop
erty bought in the pioneer days; or the
purchaser of Birmingham property in the
early sos. COS and even in the early years
of the present century.

How to Reach Corey

There will be extra service to and from Corey
Tuesday, commencing about o'clock, to afford every
opportunity to reach the property. The ex
ercses will begin about $3.50 o'clock and will be short
and to the point.
The regular North and South Ensley will
connect at Avenue e and Nineteenth Street. Ensey,
with the cars the Corey line. The Birmingham
Railway, Light and Power company will arrange to
have ample service the regular lines to Ensey
and the Corey extension. 1t is anticipated that
there will be several thousand people at Corey Tues
day afternoon, and the street car company will
range to handle that number

COREY Means Much to You

COREY means much to the with even few
hundred dollars to invest. 1t chance to get
in early and have part in the development Of this
great enterprise and reap immense profits, just
Gary and Ensley have done. It means chance tc
buy lot that will surely show great enhancement
in value before the second payment becomes due The
easy terms place lot within your reach. COREY,
to the favored few. It is to be every mans city,
where every man will have an opportunity. Like
every other good proposition those who get in early
will reap the greatest profits.

Corey By Automobile

There two equally good routes to Corey by
automobile. From Birmingham take the Postum Vel
ley road, which runs directly through Corey. To
reach the Plaza and entrance turn to the right where
the Ensley road leaves the Postum Valley road at
the little church. A good road directly to the
entrance 1t is between the Ensley road and the Pos
sum Valley road almost paralleling the Ensey road.
The other route is directly out Avenue E in Fms
ley.
The main boulevard is paved for several hundred
yards inside of Corey, and temporary drive has
been laid to the Plaza, that autos and carriages
can drive right to the Plaza
The street cars operate to within two three
hundred feet of the Plaza and there are sidewalks
laid on much of the property.

POINTS OF FEMININE BEAUTY
American Women Come the Nearest
to Possessing All Seven.

What are the cardinal points of
beauty?
Hellcu, the noted French etcher, de-
clared the other day that they are
forty in number, and that Mrs. Philip
iydig, an American society woman,
possesses thiTty-nine of the two score
essentials of pulchritude
A.r. Albert L. Lucas, one of the most
distinguished American painters of the
made and OF portraits, undertook to
answer this question for me yester-
day Mr.. Lucas, who is L pupil OF
;"r0Hic and ilebert. returned not long
ago from Paris, where his pictures

bcr 81 years. Ills work is represented

on Tie famous Frcnchman's theory
Of beauty
TO an artist" he said. there
woUld he more nearly a thousand car
dimal points OF beauty than forty, if
h cared to cnumerate them. But
many of these would be technicalities
Oi form, OF no interest to the general
public.
The essential qualities of feminine
beauty may, | think, be summed up as
symmetry, color, length of line, intel
liSence, refinement, harmonious hands
and perfect feet. In many years of
study and painting l have seen just
one face which, from an artists stand
point, could pronounce perfectly
beautiful. / have never seen a per-
t.ct figure. But | have used models
ot all nationalities, and | am convinced
the figure of the American woman
most nearly approaches perfection.
There is d pearly Wilderness to the
American skin that have never found
elsewhere, a correctness of proportion,
a length of line that even the famous
Italian models do not possess. The
Italians are too neavy in the limbs,
their ankles and wrists lack defini-
ton. The French woman has not the
American colOring. The English wom-
an is too narrow in the hips. She
IS built more like boy than woman

THE WHY OF BACHELOR GIRLS
Pertinent Reasons for Girls Remain
ing Single Given by One of Them.

| am of opinion that many, if not
all those masculines who style them
selves bachelors, have the idea that
we feminines are merely "biding our
time" until they show us some atter-
ton, and that if they do extend some
unusual courtesy to us, we are ready
to expect more. Not only do they
think this, but also that we would
Jump at the first opportunity of
appropriating them to ourselves. The
very expressive but slangy term
bump is a noticeable characteristic
among the present day masculines.
Then, too, there are those who are
of the impression that if they call for
an notwithstanding beyond a consid-
crate time-expecting entertainment
and refreshments, the hostess should
expect no further demonstration of
their regards. They fail to realize
that an evening at play or a box
OF CONNECTIONS, or just single flower
once in a while, would be instrument
tai in producing more appreciatiye
attitude in the lady of their affec-
lions. Such lack of consideration Of
ten causes a woman to ponder the
question as to whether after marriage
it would be expected that she extend
all the courtesies and receive none.
The Indifference. even neglect,
shown by the masculines to their
mothers or sisters is another of the
many reasons why successful bust
ness girls are not more ready to give
up superior positions for inferior men.
To a thinking girl the attitude in
which man regards her sex means
a great deal. She may expect con-
federation and thoughtful icpurtesy,
and not he disappointed, from the
man who has his mothers comfort in
mind. But how in the minority that
man is.-tiood Housekeeping Maya
