Description

An advertising postcard with the front showing a photograph of the Hotel Ross, located at the corner of Georgia Avenue and Market Square (Patten Parkway). An advertisement on the right of the card reads "This Hotel is Fully Equipped With AUTOMATIC SPRINKLERS Statistics show that loss of life has never occurred in a SPRINKLER BUILDING. In case of fire you may get WET but not BURNED. To me that is a wonderful consoling thought. Before I go to sleep I always recite this little prayer in-spired by the sign—Now I lay me down to sleep, Statistics guard my slumber Deep. If I should die I'm not concerned, I may get WET but I won't get BURNED." A caption at the top, rear reads: HOTEL ROSS 70 Rooms of Solid Comfort, Centrally Located, Free from Noise A. W. LESSLEY, Prop.
