OFF TO MARKET
FORLADIES SHOP

W. E. Taylor, who with ]. Z.
Hightower as partner will be- the
manager of The Fashion Shop, the
new ladies ready-to-wear store to be
opened shortly on North Jackson
street, left early Friday morning for
New York, accompanied by Miss
Bessie Graves, of Albany, who viii
be associated with the new concern,
for the purpose of buying stock for
the store. They will be gone prob
ably ten days, after which they will
return and begin placing the goods
as they arrive, preparatory to the
formal opening, which is expected
to take place about September l.
An informal showing of wearing ap-
parel for school girls, however, is
planned for about August %, in time
for them to outfit themselves be
fore leaving for school or college
elsewhere. Mr. Taylor and Miss
Graves left by automobile, accompa-
MED by Mrs. Taylor, who will visit
at Meter during their absence.
From Meter they were to go by
train Friday afternoon to Savannah
and there board a boat for New
York W. D. Bailey and Walter
Page also made the trip with them,
going to market to buy for their
respective concerns.
1--WE are going to remain in New
York probably ten days, but as long
as necessary to find exactly the
goods we want to buy and all that
we will need for the opening" said
Mr.. Taylor. New York, as you
probably know, is the center of the
world markets. Every maker Of con
sequence, both here and abroad,
maintains offices in New York and
samples or stock. We intend to see
everything offered in ladies and miss
es ready-to-weaT clothing and ae-
cessories, and buy the smartest and
best offered. We are going to con-
centrate on getting the right mer
chandise at the right price. Miss
Graves is an experienced buyer Of
ladies ready-to-wear and will be of
great assistance to me on this trip.
During their absence the finishing
touches will be put to the interior
of the new store, so that when the
new goods begin to arrive it will be
in readiness for their immediate plac-
ing. The interior is being fitted
with wall cabinets and counters in
mahogany finish, the scheme present
ing a beautiful appearance. The
whole has been planned for the con-
venience and comfort of patrons as
well as beauty.

being that the VIM Slaughter camp

to her country club with beautiful

tiguous to the high school, well
equipped and providing splendid adj
vantages for the youth, and other ac-

RIVALCITIES
REALLOVEFEAST
Albany Rotarians Guests
OF Americus Club
Thursday

In contrast to the old days, when
Americas and Albany fought on ev-
cry available occasion, there was a
love feast between the two cities
Thursday when the members of the
Albany Rotary club were guests of
the Americas club for five and a
half hours, from 2 to 1880 p. M, at
two feeds and ball game. Whether
the good spirits would have surviv-
ed the baseball game will never be
known, for rain broke up that con-
test, which was between the sans
two cities, at its very beginning,
leaving nothing to even threaten the
good relations.
The visiting Rotarians, headed by
their president, Gordon Reynolds,
hardwood manufacturer of Albany
and manager of the baseball team,
arrived by special car at 2 o'clock
and were met in a downpour of rain
by Americas Rotarians in their cars.
They were escorted directly to the
Tea Room where splendid fried
chicken dinner was waiting. Here
good fellowship reigned until nearly
4 O'Clock, when the meeting broke
up for the visit to the ball park. Re
turning to the ely, the Whole com
pany met again at the Tea Room for
supper at 6;15, where they remained
until train time.
The welcome to the visitors was
delivered by Col. G. r. Ellis, who
gracefully and good naturedly assur-
ed them of the good feeling existing
between the. two rival cities and of
the pleasure their presence meant.
President Reynolds responded for
Albany in pleasing manner, going
somewhat into the meaning of Ro-
tary and what its spirit was doing
in bringing these two communities
and other communities together.
Prof. j. E. Mathis, in brilliant
but not lengthy talk, poured some
hot shot of pleasantly into the vls-
itors, and at the same time remind
ed his home town fellows of some
of our shortcomings. He told the
visitors that if an Americas man,
Timothy Furlow, had not changed
the direction of a road running cut
of Americas there never would have
been an Albany, and also tnat Al

Herbert Clay's boom for the COVER

The cause may be found in the fact

Their own good time in selecting a
