comes SO seldom, l can not resist
the temptation TO drop into compli-
mentary remarks anent lovely Mrs.
! Albert Thornton. whose picture
adorns the front page of the society
section of The American this Sunday.
Mrs. Thorntons type OF loneliness
is so perfect. as to feature, form and
color, that she has often been called
the most beautiful woman in Georgia.
And what is more remarkable than
her beauty is the fact that she is one
of the most talented young women
OF the city, and one of the cleverest
and wittiest members OF the young
married contingent.
Mrs Thorutons voice is Of rare
charm and has been eXquisitely Gull
tivatcd She never lets her social
duties curtail her musical practice
and finds time also for reading upon
all the topics Of the day. Her repair

lures of any affair she attends. And,

almost any afternoon or evening Civ

at the Court of st. James a few years
ago while abroad Since her debut
she has been accorded all sorts of
hatterinC attentions. Now. last but
not least I would like to say that
the GROWING charm of this very
charming woman, in my opinion. is
her gracious personality and her gem
timely unaffected manners.
