A Message From and
To the People

7 7 is doubtful if any newspa-
1 per ever published in the
United States carries with it
such a record of growth and
achievement as The Atlanta
Georgian and Hearst Sunday
American.
The life of The Georgian
compasses only two years, and
The Sunday American cele-
brates its first anniversary to-
day.
Within this brief period
these two papers-the daily
aud the Sunday edition of one
paper-have gone to the very
front of all Southern journal
ism. The daily Georgian has
by several thousand net paid
subscribers the greatest circu-
lation of any daily newspaper
printed in the South, and The
Sunday American has far
more subscribers and readers
than any other Sunday news
paper printed in the South.
This remarkable develop
ment has been recorded with
in the short space of one and
two years in a field richly rep
resented by able and loyal
newspapers, many of which
have been printed for period
longer than the lives of the
majority Of those who live at
the present time.
Coming as a journalistic
stranger in an old and con-
sentative section of the coun-
try, retaining everywhere the
new and progressive policies
which characterize the Hearst
newspapers all over the coun-
try, there can be no possible
explanation of the fiattering
growth Of The Georgian and
Sunday American except the
real merit Of the two newspa-
pers, the soundness of policies
and the broad spirit of wei
come which the new and
growing South gives to those
who come to help in the up
building and advertising of
it's interests and prosperity.
This is the mission which The
Georgian and Sunday Ameri-
can came to perform. 1t has
done its best to be a vital and
helpful part of the life of the
great people of Georgia and
the South.
1t constructs its magnificent
circulation and prosperity of
today as a message straight
from the people that they ap-
prove the motive and the
measure of its service.
And it sends back straight
to the people the grateful and
cordial message that their
patronage and approval con-
socrates the Hearst newspa-
pers more and more to the
service and support of these
great people, and to their
every moral and material in
terest, during the long and
loyal years in which they ex-
pect to bear a strenuous part
in their prosperity and happi-
ness and essential history.
