Hearst's Sunday American Will
Announce Best SIogan-Many
Submitted Saturday,

| Judges SATURDAY look charge OF ali
the 100000 club" slogans submitted
in the s25 prize contest They are
John w. Grant, Wilmer L. Moore and
Walter c. Taylor. At The Geor-
gian office they began careful study
of the hundreds of suggestions sub
mitted.
Hearst's Sunday American will an
nounce the winner.
The last day of the contest brought
in the largest number of submissions
of any other day. Many are beauti-
full designs by well-known artists.
Others are striking for their literary
merit. All bespeak the wonderful At
lanta spirit-save one.
That came in anonymously from a
cynical humorist He went to the
trouble of drawing a large picture
burlesquing Atlanta from the City
Hall to the last garbage dump beyond
"Pittsburg"
The cynic's Slogan.
In one corner was a large building
marked Hot Air Factory" Next to
it was the City Hall. called "1'he
House of Mystery" and on top of the
building sat a doubtful bird mark
ed Graft" The bottom of the pic
ture showed three stragglers passing
out of a gate with the remark:
Griffin amt so bad after ALL"
It's a cinch this design won't get
the prize.
One of the best of the last sug-
gestions was a map of Georgia with
a star marking Atlanta, its capital.
The slogan, offered by George L. Tay-
Tor, No. 1852 CORTLAND street, is:
Hitch your wagon to the star Half
million by 1920"
Here are many scintillating with
enthusiasm:
