Their wealth spread state wide with new industry, textile business, hunting and game plantations of quail, fox, and deer. Fort Benning near Colum- bus became home to the in- fantry, bringing jobs to west Georgia. Atlanta emerged as the railroad, marketing, and commercial hub of the South, the center for banking and insurance, with a population of more than 90,000. In At- lanta, Asa Candler had drug stores at which he sold his manufactured balm, per- fumes, and patented medi- cine. In a major move, he sold his stores for $50,000 and purchased Coca Cola from Dr John Pemberton for $2300. Soon his business was thriv- ing, and in 1919 he sold it for 25 million dollars. A generous philantropist, he was also a big game hunter and a collec- tor of exotic birds and ani- mals, which he gave to the Atlanta Zoo. On his estate he had four elephants, which he named “Coca,” “Cola,” “Pause,” and “Refresh.” In the sports world, Ty Cobb, the Georgia Peach, reigned supreme. He made his debut in 1905 with the Detroit Tigers and played for 22 seasons and was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. One of his sons, Ty Cobb, Jr., practiced medicine in Dublin for a time. Having a great-grand- mother who had been kid- napped and held hostage by Indians impressed indelibly on the mind of Juliette Gor- don Low the importance of scouting and wilderness sur- vival skills, and when she was encouraged by Sir Robert Powell, a London friend who had founded the Boy Scouts, she arranged two small troups of 8 girls each into what is called the Girl Scouts on March 12, 1912. Today there are more than 2.7 million girls in the 90 countries. Her home in Sa- vannah is preserved and is a tourist attraction. The speak- er stated that she had been a Girl Scout and found that many of the ladies in the au- dience had also been mem- bers. Going back to her opening song, she mentioned the great Johnny Mercer, who was born in Savannah in 1909, wrote over 1,000 lyrics, won four Academy Awards, and left a rich musical legacy with such tunes as “Moon River,” “Days of Wine and Roses,” “ That Old Black Magic, “ and “ Accentuate the Positive.” Wearing a stunning black hat with her white blouse and long black skirt, Mrs. Yates recalled her grand- mother, Mrs. Clyde Black Chivers, who would have been attired in just such gar- ments when she attended Study Club during this peri- od. She would, however, have had on her white gloves, and she would have arrived with her chauffeur, Thomas. Ladies were wearing lipstick, and hems just above the an- kle were coming into vogue; some would have called it a “dangerous time.” No one could have better told about Dublin in these early days than Mrs. Scott Beasley, whose family had been citizens here for more than half a century. In 1912, she reported, Dublin and Laurens County were pro- gressive and prosperous ar- eas. The population had grown 572 percent in the 1890-1910 period. Dublin had nice schools, fine homes, a new city hall, a new post of- fice, many lovely churches, lights, a sewer system, tele- phones, and a volunteer fire department. Although the railroad and the steamboat had contributed to this boom, Mrs. Beasley asserted that the credit was due to the Dublin business men. By 1917 there were over 100 retail businesses and eight wholesale groceries. The businesses included dry good stores, department stores, hardware, jewelry, Friday, October 21, 2011 The Courier Herald Section B
