Nawman Laser, of Atlanta has re turned. after a successful visit to local lodKsa or tba Fraternal Union of Amer ica, and Is now dsvoting his time to ward furthering the growth of the or der In this city. MAXIMS OF FRATERNAL WORLD Truly thla la the aga of fraternity. * More than twenty million poopte of thla country aro enrolled In the dif ferent fraternal organisations. * ' There le less Jumping from ona fraternal order to another now than there was a few years agb. This la partly due to the fact that the averaao man Is looking more Into the merits and stability of an order now than hla older brother did In th» peat. The ladles are taking more active Interest In the fraternal orders now than they did In yean past, and tha Influence nf their helping hands Is do ing much to promots the growth of the great fraternal brotherhoods. Business man would consider It poor business to go without properly protecting their stock In the event of (Ire; yet thousands of them do not protect themselves, notwithstanding that only a small per cent of buildings bum where one hundred per cent of men die. When you take Into consideration the many thousands of lodges of the different orders you will find less defalcations among their financial officers than In any other line of business. The gnat good the fraternal orders are doing everywhere throughout the country la attracting the attention of the highest class of cltlsens, who are enrolling their names more frequently now than any time during the past decade. - Nothing pleases the officers of a lodge so much as to aae large numbers of the membern coming out to the lodge meeGpgs. Much good often results from a suggestion of a member who occasionally visits his lodge. M. D. GLEASON. The Dixie Business College H. L. Bridges and Bernard C. Ansted, PROPRIETORS. An Explanation: Tbe Bookkeeping Course in any Business College in cludes the English branches—such as Grammar, Spelling, Arithmetic, Commercial Law, Letter-writing, Penmanship, etc. The Shorthand Course includes the English branches and Typewriting. Beware of the school with so many scholarships! Its .plan is to combine several of thenj for the price of one, leading tHe purchaser to believe he is getting something cheap—which is usually the case. We would like to inform those who anticipate attending a business school that the advertised sale of scholarships at half price by another Business College in this city is a.gross deception. Nothing more iB offer ed than their usual catalog prices. Tis a pity that an educational insti tution of some little standing in the past should perpetrate such a whole sale misrepresentation. The proprietors of The Dixie have taught Bookkeeping and Shorthand continuously for quite a number of yeprs. They have recently opened a school of their own, and teach everything that any Business College tenches except Telegraphy. Our price for combined scholarship ie $75. Single Scholarship $50. This is about as much as any school of standing will charge you for their courses of instruction. Don’t be misled by fraudulent baits. * Write for our handsome catalog. Just out.
