ATLANTA GIRLS
BUY MILLINERY
MADE At HOME
Half the Hats Seen on Peachtree
Street Are Made Here, but
the Fact Is UnheraIded.

Half the women's hats seen on
Peachtree Street are made right in
Atlanta.
The fair Deachtree promenaders
don't know it; the milliners they pat
ronize don't know it: in many cases
the jobberg themselves don't know It.
There are three factories in Atlanta
making women's hats, of straw, felt,
plush, hemp and the myriad other
materials which go TO bedeck milady's
colffure and frame her pretty face.
But as soon as the hat leaves these
factories the manufacturers lose their
Identity. The hat is marked with the
jobber's label. 1t may be marked
New York. Philadelphia. New Orleans
or even London. The fact that 1t is
made in Atlanta is nowhere to be dis
covered,
One manufacturer tells, with a
grin, of Atlanta milliners who
stocked up" in New York-with At
lanta- made hats,
Altogether it is an interesting bust
ness.
The American Hat Manufacturing
Company, one of the largest Of the
three Atlanta factories, imports
straws direct from China, Japan,
Italy and Germany. These straws
are plated abroad. and either are
dyed there or bleached and dyed In
Camden, n. ].
Japan sends hemp braid. italy fur
nishes the milans, leghorns and tus-
cans. Germany furnishes a peculiar
material known al Neapolitan braid,
which. though few know it, is made
from American cotton. China fur
nishes coarse straws.
So much for the straws. The felt
bodies come from abroad, in the
rough-queer. looking toadstools of
various shades. Silks, ribbons, vel
vets, pushes and ornaments are car
ried in quantity enough to stock dry
goods store of large proportions.
Just now the factories are busy
with the hats to be worn this fall and
winter, and with misses and chill
dren's hats for spring, 1914.
Sample rooms already are filled
with fall and spring lines. dazzling
arrays of colors, and seemingly in al
most every shape, but with smaller
hats predominating.
The making of a hat may be said to
begin in the room where a skilled
workman makes plaster molds accu-
rately defining the shapes. From
these plaster affairs, metal dies art
made These dies are put in the
presses and heated by gas flames
The rough shapes, either felt. velvet
straw or hemp, are stamped with
these hot dies and held in them until
dry. When removed the heat has
baked the sticky sizing" until the
shapes are firm.
From the presses the velvet and
plush hats go to workman who
steams them and brushes up the nap
to its original beauty.
The straw shapes are made in the
factory. Ingeniously designed sewing
machines, manipulated by skillful
girls, sew the braid round and round,
until tiny knot grows into a gigantic
hat In the straw season $50 girls
are busy at these machines

him show visitors through. If a
visitor manifests interest in one line,
or several let him telephone at once
to the manufacturers of these lines
to send a salesman. l believe, too,
that manufacturers in the outskirts
of the city will find it profitable to
use the exhibit building for their
downtown Office. This is done else

Atlanta should have four times
the payroll it now has. This is the
way to go about it."
EVansviIle's Experience.
Boiling II. Jones told of the ex-
perience of So furniture manufactur-
ers in Evansville, Ind, who put up a
building and displayed their lines in
it, keeping the ground floor for their
offices. They find it easier to get
prospective customers to look at their
wares, and also find the selling cost
cut to per cent
THAT convinced me-" said Mr.
Jones. Did any manufacturer here
ever sell goods for per cent mer-
chandising cost? This argument
alone seems to me unanswerable.'
He spoke of the changes which have
come about in the Southern field
within five years. No longer is it
possible to sell a merchant full car
load OF one line. Therefore, he ar

Five years ago, you could

Silk DyerS Strike;
Feathers Face Bar;
Flowers in Favor
MliIIners Think That for Once They
Can Predict Styles for Fall
Well IN Advance.

Flowers will be popular on worn-
ems hats for fall and winter wear.
In July this is a dangerous predic-
ton. Circumstances, however, make
IT fairly safe prophecy. in the opin-
ion Of C. B. Palmer, of NJ Kutz Co.,
wholesale milliners.
Dame Fashion might take a notion
to dictate ribbons. But the silk dy-
ers' strikes in Paterson, n. J., have
caused an increase of 20 per cent in
the cost of ribbons, and even at these
advanced prices. deliveries can not
be made. At best, goods can not be
promised before August Is or Sep
TENDER /, and even if the mills re-
open. they are likely to be over
whelned with the orders which have
been accommodating.
Feathers, again, might have been
Fashions favorites. But right now
there is trouble in Congress over the
Importation of feathers. The milli-
ners and the Audubon Society are in
the throes of a bitter struggle which
will decide whether feathers will be
admitted at all under the new tariff.
Remain only fur and flowers. For
three seasons. velvet and silk flow
ers have been increasing in popular
ity on fall and winter hats, and, with
the scarcity of other materials, are
likely TO take the ascendency this
fall.
Small hats will rule-that is. small
er than those which have been worn
for the past few seasons. Crowns will
be round with turned-up brims, ac-
cording to Mr.. Palmer. What will be
the favorite colors, besides the sta
pie blues, browns and black, no one
will know until September /.
The Kutz Co. statesmen started out
last Monday to cover the Southern
States for fall business.

EngliShman'S Criticism of
Observation-Disclosures
Selfridge's Manager Unjustifed in Saying Gus
toners Wait Too Long for Parcels.

Managers Of Atlanta department
stores made tests at random to dem
onsuate that It takes on sn average
80 seconds for the delivery of a pack
age and the making Of change.
Luoian York, manager of RicE1's,
says:
We have a system which we be-
lieve is the best yet devised from
the viewpoint OF the customer, and
Selfridge's certainly have nothing to
compare with It. We use an 1denti-
flcation COIN.
Departs at Once.
Most of our charge customers
have their parcels delivered. After
the transaction Is made the customer
merely gives her name and address
to the salesperson, shows her identi-
fication coin, and departs at once.
Even when the customer takes the
parcel with her, the wrapper in the
stand has II ready in a tiffy. Time
records to gauge our wrappers show
that on an average they use less
than a minute.
THE delivery Of packages after all,
is simply a minor matter. What our
American people want broadly is
service-the right merchandise at the
right time at the right price. In Eng
lish stores customers still are impor-
tuned to buy; in fact. in many Of the
stores It is almost impossible to leave
without buying. Fancy such a oondi-
ton here!
Again, here we mako every effort
to get what the customer wants. We
anticipate the styles, bring on new
models and patterns
When the customer purchases
these goods she buys them at our
risS-if they are not pleasing to her
when she gets them home she is at
liberty to return them. Here the Gus
toner is always right-in England,
from what I understand, she is more
at the mercy Of the storekeeper."

A E Cowper, one Of the important
men in the organization of Selfridge
g. Co., which in turn has. perhaps, the
most important department store in
London, recently made a visit to the
United States. He spent most of his
time, of course, in looking over
American department stores, and be-
fore he departed for England freed
himself Of some criticism.
One thing which struck me was
the time IL takes to complete a pur-
chase and get your goods wrapped
and delivered" he said.
AT home we have no bundle wrap
pers; the clerks wrap the packages,
and we find II saves time and mis-
takes. When a customer has made a
purchase and the goods are shipped
by carrier OF messenger to a distant
cash and bundle desk, every second
she has to wait is magnifled to a
minute, whereas II the goods are
wrapped by the clerk, the customer
is getting the full attention Of that
sslesperson. and II a minute or two
should be lost, she is seeing the &C
ton all the time, and does not feel
that she has been lost sight of. In
Selfridge's we use cash registers, and
we find them great savers of time"
Atlanta merchandise experts do not
agree with the English student of
store service.
Mr.. Cowper, In the opinion of va
rious Atlantans approached on the
subject magnifies the Importance of
the transactions where the purchases
actually are taken away by the buyer
They remark that while it may be
the custom in London for shoppers to
carry home their purchases, nine out
of ten customers in Atlanta demand
delivery by wagon.
At any rate, they say. there is very
little delay, and II is much better to
free the salespeople from the duty
