to the people of Marietta, but
Georgia had a string tied to him and
reserved the right to call him back
at any time.
Colonel Fred Paxon made a
beautiful little speech in which he
said Governor Brown was the richest
man in Georgia for he had CLEANED
a harvest of hearts which no man
could take from him.
After shaking hands with the
Governor and Mrs. Brown the crowd
came back to the city. The occasion
was most delightful one in every
way and those who had it in charge
have every reason to feel proud OF
its success.

GOV. JOSEPH N. BROWN
IS WARMLY WELCOMED
TEARS IN HIS EYES WHEN BAND
PLAYED SWEET HOME"
Large Crowd at the Car With a Long
Procession Of Automobiles.
Several Speeches.

Governor Joseph M. Brown, whose
term of offiC e ended at noon last Sat
urday, was given a most cordial well
come back to his home in Marietta
by the citizens generally without re-
gard to their political allignments.
The occasion was in every way a
most delightful one and so illustrated
the fine spirit of Marietta that no
wonder Governor Brown in his re-
spouse to Colonel Blair's address of
welcome pronounced this the most
charming community in the State of
Georgia
Governor Brown left Atlanta on
the car scheduled to arrive in Martha
at four o'clock. He was accompanied
by Colonel Fred Paxon, his chief of
staff, Colonel Joseph Van Holt Nash,
DR.. Van Dyke, Colonel Joe Brown
Connally, Mr.. j. r. Smith and other
friends.
He was received by a committee
composed of Colonel w. R. Power,
Mr.. Saxon A. Anderson, DR.. Rambo
and Mr.. R. H. Northcutt.
A large crowd had collected and
pressed about the governor to shake
his hand. He was escorted to Mr..
Northcutt's automobile which he oc-
cupied, together with Mr.. Northcutt,
Mr.. j. r. Smith and Colonel Starr.
In front of Mr.. Northcutt's car
was the picnic wagon deliberately
decorated with flags and with stream
mers inscribed Welcome Home,
Our Citizen. 1t was occupied by the
Gem City Band, which played Dixie
as the car arrived with the governor
and followed with other spirited airs.
The band wagon was drawn by
four of Captain Chuck Anderson's
beautiful gray horses.
Next to Mr.. Northcutt's car was
that of Miss Regina Rambo approp-
riately decorated. The fair driver
sat at the wheel, radiant and beauti-
full, and with her sat Mrs. Brown,
whose smiling face showed the pleas
ure she felt over the welcome given
her husband by his home people.
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1911-07-07

Other occupants of Miss Rambo' s
car were Colonel Paxon and Miss
Cora Brown.
Behind Miss Rambo's car stretched
a long line of automobiles, the follow.
ing being a list of all those whose
cars were in the procession: Mr.. r.
H. Northcutt, Miss Regina Rambo,
Mr.. Mack Fowler, Mr.. Harry Cole,
Mr.. B. T. Frey, Mr.. L. C. Baldwin,

Brown, of Atlanta, DIR. Nolan and
DR.. Charles H. Field.
Mr.. Len Balwin was in charge
of the autos, assisted by Mr.. Homer
McClatchey, and they soon had them
all occupied and ready for the start.
The procession moved around the
Square to music by the band and to
the accompaniment Of much enthu-
siam. The band played all the way
to Governor Browns residence on
Whitlock avenue.
AS the head of the procession
moved into the spacious grounds
the strains of Home, Sweet Home"
floated on the air, which so touched
Governor Brown that tears filled his
eyes for a moment.
The cars were conveniently placed
under the big trees near the house
and many of those who had gone
out gathered about the long veranda
to hear the speeches.
Colonel w. r. Power made an
appropriate address in which he
paid a high tribute to Governor
Brown. He introduced Colonel D.
w. Blair, who made the formal
address of welcome and did so in
such happy vein that his address
received universal praise.
Governor Browns response show
ed his deep appreciation of the
welcome accorded him. He review
ed his administration, saying what
the people needed three years age
was the rest cure" and it had given
them unexampled prosperity, SC
much so that the tax values of the
State have increased in two years,
according to the figures of the
Comptroller General, a hundred
million dollars.

A Beautiful EPn1ine and
Red Fox Combination

fringe of black ermine tails.
Another white cut velvet wrap by
Bernard has draped sleeves and a
graceful scarf which may be twisted
around the throat or even wound
about the head and allowed to fall
over the wrap. Coat, draped sleeves
and scarf are lined with a splendid
shade of emerald green satin and
gold cords and tassels hanging from
the sleeves add richness tc the white
and green combination.
The Evening Wrap AS An Effective
Background.
AT the Horse Show, handsome even
ing wraps thrown over the chair
backs made wonderfully effective
backgrounds for lovely evening frocks
lessened if their wearers had sat
without the wraps in the plain wooden
chairs which furnish the boxes. When
an artist paints a portrait he is very
likely to fling a scarf, a wrap-or
lacking one of these,-a bit of rich
colored drapery, across the back of
the sitter's chair, to throw her figure
into artistic relief and form soft,
harmonious background for its color
tints and delicate texture. The woman
who appreciates the artistic value of
such drapery, never leaves her rich
wrap in a cloakroon. but has it with
her, over her chairback, to add to the
luxurious effect of her toilette and
enhance tenfold the loneliness of her
frock. The silk, velvet and brocade
evening wraps of this winter are ORR
entail in their richness of color, and
when the wrap is of fur the lining is
apt to have the rich color that the
outer fabric lacks.
The Worth wrap of sealskin and
broadtaiI which is pictured today. has
lining of rose and mauve brocade
with bits of gold lace trimming and
tiny festoons of ribbon flowers here
and there to add dainty elegance. The
inner side of such a wrap is quite as
attractive as the outer. and when

RIGS very dainty lining in light
fectiveness as an evening wrap; for
the dark fur will be hidden when the
wrap is flung over a chair in such
manner that the lining forms a back
ground for the airy chiffon or lace
frock-

full Of the quiet distinction which
characterizes all Worth costumes. One

display them will sell them for this
purpose. Every detail of the costume
is exquisitely correct; for example
note the gaiter-top boots on the little
lady who has child by the hand
These new gaiter boots are the craze
in Paris now. The buttoned gaiter
top of suede or cloth in some delicate
shade is attached directly to patent
leather vamp; but the dolls feet are
usually made of wood through which
passes the wire which forms the foun-
dation for the supple figure.
It is this wire foundation that
makes the tiny figure SO supple and

employed to bend the wires exactly

Most of the Fur Evening Coats Come
From Paris.
Each French couturier puts out his
special model in a luxurious fur even
ing wrap and many of these wraps
touch the five thousand dollar mark
when custom duties have been incIud-
ed in this country. One of the most
expensive and most beautiful coats
worn at the opening performance of
Aida on Novembe 18th was of white
taiIless ermine made with a huge
cape of the fur which fell to the waist
line. This cape and the bottom of
the coat were bordered with fringe
of sable tails; and as the trapping of
sabies has been prohibited in Russia
for three years. the cost of this fringe
of tails alone may well be imagined.
Above the sable tails on the bottom of
the coat was a tWelVe-inch band of
the ermine trimmed with the small
black ermine tails which are always
SO effective on the snowy fur. White
eoney is something like the tailless
ermine, though of course the pelt is
not as pure white or as rich and thick
in texture with the wonderful supple
ness of ermine- The coney is less
expensive, and many women have
coats of coney with trimmings of err
mine tails or white fox.
Paul Poiret is very partial to the
striking combination of brilliant red
fox fur with pure white ermine and
since his taking up of the red fox
fur, which is really quite an ordinary
pelt' belonging to humble little B'rer
Fox of the woods and fields, many
furr1ers have brought out ernline
coats trimmed with red fox. A beau
tifuI coat of this style. designed by
Revillon Freres, is illustrated. This
coat is built of the tailIess crmine
and has a deep border of errnine
tails in striped effect at the foot.
The huge collar and cuffs of red fox
are strikingly conspicuous on the
snowy fur but the coat is very
splendid and becoming to it's wearer.
whose dark eyes and hair are en-
HANGED by contrast with the brilliant
coloring of the fur.
White Cut Velvet or Ratine Used In
Place of Er1nine
Some of the important French cou-
turiers have produced evening wraps
which have the luxurious effect of
ermine though in place of the costly
fur white ratine or white cut velvet
has been used in conjunction with
trimming furS OF some contrasting
color. A coat of this sort, created by
Bernard, was worn at the Metropolis
tan Opera House during the premier
week. and attracted some attention.
This coat was made of pure white
cut velvet bordered at neck, sleeves
and foot with black fox. From the
back OF the shoulders as an Austrian
officer wears his white and gold coat
depended a graceful cape which fell
on one side to the waistline, sloping
down to hip length on the other side
This cape was made of the cut white
velvet and at its edge was a thick

the sealskin making the coat extra
heavy and luxurious. The ermine cuffs
and collar are adjustable and may
be removed when the white muff is
not carried. This coat has been worn

When the choice lies between motor
car for pater familias and an ermine
evening wrap for mater familias;
between a snug little house and lot
for the entire family and a seal and

consider merely the decoration of mi
ladi. An ermine evening wrap rep
resents money and lots of money. It

a woman can own and testifes to the
