''Time will tell!''
Such Is the thought of all of US as things
come and 60.
And Time has told!
At the beginning people were thirsty the
same as now, but service for them was hardly
more than the old oaken bucket that hung
In the well. One man, in Atlanta, Ga, had
labored long to blend from pure, good things
of nature new, distinctive beverage. To
please taste and satisfy thirst were his final
tests. At last the drink was perfected,
named "Coca-COla'' and offered to the
public.
That was In 1SS6-tne year Grover Cleveland
was married In the White House. What has
happened In the 80 years since through
the presidencies of Harrison, Cleveland
again, Mckinley, Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson,
Harding, to that of Coolidee-years of wars
and peace and great changer
1t is the story of the rise of great American
industry from kettle and ladle.
That first year only Is gallons of Coca Cola
syrup-about 5000 drinks-were sold. A
new and modern merchandising structure
was applied. Gradually through the years
sales increased until in 1928 the total was
nearly 5000, 900 gallons of syrup-or $780,
OOO, 900 drinks GLASSES at fountains and in
bottIes) of Coca-Cola.
Coca-Cola brought to the soda fountain,
then still something of an experiment. and
having hard struggle to impress its worth
upon both merchants and the public,
trade leader. More and finer fountains were
The Washington times., 1924-09-03

built. The success of Coca Cola came to
mean the success of the soda fountain.
Next Coca-Co1a inspired the building of
plants and machines through which the
public could be supplied a sealed, sterilized
bottle assuring pure, wholesome beverage.
With Coca-Cola the soft drink bottline in.
dustry was born.
During the SO years Coca-Cola has been on
the market, $40, zoo, 900 has been spent ad-
vertisine it. Today Coca-Cola is sold at
more than $4,000 soda fountains, and
greater than 800, 900 retailers are selling
bottled Coca-Cola.
Of course great industry has been required
to bring about this tremendous Develop,
ment.
From the obscure kettle and 1adle of 1886,
it grew to The Coca-Cola Company, incor-
porated in Georgia in 1892. By steady
progress it attained the position of an insti-
tution-owned by one family until the fall
of 1919, when it was sold to The Coca Cola
Company of Delaware national and inter-
national business owned by thousands of
stockholders living in all parts of the coun-
try. And allied with it are 1880 COca-Co
bottlers with modern plants in as many
cities.
Occasionally, when leadership is sufficiently
strong, it falls to the lot of one concern to
be the backbone of an entire industry. Such
is the story Time has told of the quality of
Coca-Cola and of the worth of the company
back of it..

SUMMER REVIEW FROM BIRMINGHAM MONTONE COLONY

With the departure of Miss Mary Virginia Welch and Mir. Walter Welch, Jr., who have been staying at the Wright's cottage with their mother, Mrs. Walter Welch, on Thursday the exodus of the Birmingham contingency of the summer colony at Mentone has begun and soon the junior element of the social set will be busily engaged in the various occupations that pertain to the city habitation. Mentone has been most fortunate in the young peo- pie who have represented the Magic City this season.
 The three charnSing girl guests of Miss Grace Martin whose presence en- liyened the activities of the younger people of the social realm here, are most pleasantly remembered. They were Miss Mary Perry, Miss Caroline Fowl kes, and Miss Susan Porter, and it is hoped that there presence here will be an annual occurrance. Recently Miss Evelyn Coffin was guest of the same hostess, and-she is asserted as saying that he preferred a visit to Mentone rather than a stay in the Adirondacks.
 Miss Florence. Garland is a most hkeable Birmingham girl who spends each season at "Kentucky Lodge" the summer home of-the family. MT. Alex ander Garland, too, spends his vaca- tion here and is counted among the young people who represent the junior set.
 Miss Caroline Hogue is another Bir- mingham girl who loves Mentone, more for horseback riding, swimming, and all sorts of nature studies, than social pleasures. Mir. Wilson Hogue, her old sport and, like his sister, is cmfwyp CT brother, is an all round good sport and, is like his sister, is exceedingly fond of the out5of-door as well as the social pleasures of all kinds.
 MT. Charles s. Caldwell III is here for his vacation, after holding posi- tion with the Alabama Power company for the greater part of the summer.
 These young people all add to the group that are constantly together, an- nualiy, representing New Orleans and Roue and a most attractive and vital group it is, numbering nearly 70 girls and boys.

HIGH SCHOOL ACTIVITIES COMMENCE

Monday morning, September 15, the tramp of many feet will awake the sleeping walls of the public schools in Birmingham, Footsteps that have not been heard for three months will again resound in the halls, but many familiar ones will not return and in their place strange ones will sound out. The sharp voice of the teacher and the brisk tapping of her rule will again be heard calling the students back into their places.
 Many boys and girls who have been spending their vacation at the seashore, swimming, boating and fishing, and many others who spent theirs in the mountains, where they could enjoy the fresh, 'cool air, the long hikes, swims, and horseback rides, are pouring back into the city to take up the book, paper and pencil and begin again where they left off this spring. Again boys and girls will crowd the cars and streets Their talk and laughter will again fill the air and the old schools will settle down into the hum and drone of a win ter's work.
