lanta in the forefront of Ameri-
can convention cities. Those are
some Of the reasons ] am glad TO
see the Hearst newspapers in At
lanta succeeding.
JOHN D. LITTLE, Lawyer:
The growth of the Hearst
newspapers in Atlanta is another
proof of the wonderful opportuni-
ties in our section of the country
when the right sort of effort is
made. The Hearst newspapers
always are very interesting out
SHE of the purely news features.
/ am not surprised that they have
had a remarkable growth.
l don't know much about
newspaper circulation, but
know that circulation of more
than 100000 net paid of THE
SUNDAY AMERICAN within six
months after its birth is an i'm
portant accomplishment. Il is
well worthy to Atlanta and this
section TO maintain such a large
newspaper. Maintaining the larg-
est circulated newspaper in the
South Atlanta strengthens its IT,
tie as the DiXie's Gate City.
OSCAR ElSAS, President Fulton BAD
and Cotton Mill:
The attaining OF a net paid cir
culation of 100000 by THE SUN
DAY AMERICAN is a remarkable
achievement. 1t is Illustrative of
Atlanta and just what Atlantans
want think Mr.. Hearst and his
staff have displayed sagacity in
the establishment of the paper. |
don't know of any METROPOLITAN
paper that excels If. if, in fact,
there is any that comes up to it.
1t is a splendid newspaper. I like
to read it, and the reading of it
Is sufficient explanation of why II
has broken the records in circula-
ton of Sunday newspapers. 1
have noted its growth with inter
est and wish for The Hearst's
Sunday American the greatest
success.
WILMER MOORE, President Cham
Der of Commerce:
A circulation of 100. 900 net paid
for THE SUNDAY AMERICAN
is easily understood. am ex-
tremely delighted to know that
The Sunday American has passed
this mark. 1t is truly Allan
tanaesque-a live, snappy paper,
with hustle and hustle to it. II
reminds me of Whitehall and
Peachtree. walked along these
two streets Saturday and was
struck by the wonderful metro
politan touch to the crowd.
Broadway is the nearest thing to
1t. So it is with the newspapers
the metropolitan papers are the
nearest thing to THE SUNDAY
AMERICAN published In Atlanta.
II i splendid illustration of
the Atlanta spirit-alWays ahead.
DR.. JOSEPH JACOBS, Druggist:
| look upon the reaching of the
100000 net paid circulation mark
by THE SUNDAY AMERICAN
like every other patriotic Atlanta
man or woman does-with pride
and satisfaction. To read il re-
veals why it has broken the rec
ord of Southern newspaperdom,
for it is most attractive medium
of news. Not only is it newsy,
but it is also instructive. | look
forward to it each week When it
is considered that New Orleans
has twice the population Of At
lanta, the fact that Atlanta has
a newspaper which oUtstrips the
New Orleans papers is something
to be received with satisfaction
by every Albanian.
EDWIN p. ANSLEY, Real Estate
Owner and Developer:
| have noticed with a good deal
Of interest the rapid growth in
circulation of THE GEORGIAN,
as well al the rema rka BILE growth
of THE SUNDAY AMERICAN
since it started a few months ago.
| desire to commend these news
papers for the stand they have
taken, not only in civic matters
