Imitation the Sincerest Flattery
\
The best articles which have won popular favor through genuine merit are always imitated.
“BOHEMIAN EXPORT BEER,”
that UNEXCELLED BREW of the ACME BREWING COMPANY, has been set up as a standard by many imitators. These imitators are
wonderfully successful in getting names that sound like ours, and bottles that look like ours, but they can never get a beer that tastes like ours.
The wonderful qualities of the genuine “BOHEMIAN EXPORT” are the results of a careful and. competent brewing, such as cheap imi
tators can not do. Be sure that the label contains the name of “Acme Brewing Co., Macon, Ga.,” a guaranty of excellence.-
Original BOHEMIAN EXPORT is sold only at the following places in Albany:

STRAIGHT TALK
ABOUTBASEBALL.
The Albany Team Is Not
Paying—Another Town Is
After It—How About It,
Albany Fans?
Here Is some straight talk.
It Is intended for those who are in
terested in baseball, and who want to
see the games on the home grounds
continue. So prick up your ears and
listen.
Did you know that the crowds that
have been attending the games played
on the home grounds have been the
smallest in the league circuit?
Did you know that in Columbus,
Waycross and Valdosta the crowds
have been very much larger at all the
games’than have witnessed the games
in this burg?
Did you know that In Cordele, a
smaller place, the same rule holds
good ?
Did you know that at Amerlcus, in
spite of the fact that the Amerlcus
team has not won a single game, the
attendance has been much larger than
it has been here?
Did you know ail these things?
And do you realise that ball teams
cannot be run on hot air?—that it
takes the long green to pull the man
agement over 'the rough road It is
obliged to travel?
, And you, Kir. Knocker, with your
Infernal little tack-hammer and your
superior wisdom about running ball
teams and winning pennants, what 11
cense have you to stir up the dust and
emit a cloud of smoke every time base
ball is mentioned?
Now listen:
The Albany team is not, to date, a
paying proposition.
It Is not a paying proposition simply
because the people of Albany have not
turned out in sufficient numbers to see
the games that have been played.
Manager J. W. Thomas took charge
of the Albany team without asking the
people of Albany to advance a penny
or guarantee a dollar. He “went it
alone,” relying upon the assurances of
the people of this city that they would
support a good team.
Manager Thomas said:
"If these players I have gathered to
represent Albany cannot play winning
ball, I will get others."
He is still willing to make his prom
ise good. He has added good material
to the team during the last few days
and i» going to add more.
Now what Is the record of the team?
They won the Cordele series away
from home. They won the Columbus
series on the home grounds, and took
one of the three Columbus games in
the enemy’s camp. In the practice se
ries at home with Valdosta, they won
two of the three games. They were
badly beaten in Waycross Thursday
for the very simple reason that they
made the mistake of trying out a new
pitcher who was an unknown quantity,
or else who was badly out of condi
tion.
Now:
Quit knocking.
Attend the games when the team
plays at home. Root for it. When the
fellow at your elbow begins to knock,
close his mouth. Run him out of the
grounds. Tell him that he Is a misfit,
and let him see that you mean it.
Then watch the difference. Tho re
ceipts of the games’ will swell, and the
management of the team will be in
position to make good. And it will
make good. The season is young yet
Even Amerlcus may wind up at or
near the top of the column.
Now listen again:
If you continue to knock; if you do
not do what you can to got good
crowds out to see the games, ALBANY
WILL SHORTLY HAVE NO TEAM.
That’s the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth. There is a
live town not many miles from Albany
that wants our ball team. And she is
trying to get it. She has asked for it,
an*d is ready to put up the hard cash
to meet whatever requirements may
be laid before her.
It is a case of Albany or the other
town. Albany has the advantage of
possession, but the other town Is de
termined. I
Now, Mr. Fan, how about it? The
facts are before you, and these words
are spoken with authority. Depend
upon that. Baseball in the summer
time is a good thing for any town. It
helps all classes. It makes the long
summer shorter and the hot days more
endurable. I
We all declared we wanted profes
sional ball this summer. Now, as a
matter of fact, do we? The immediate
future will tell. i
In conclusion: ’ 1
Waycross comes Monday for three
games. A great deal — a very great
deal — depends upon the attendance
upon those games. I
We have given “a word to the wise.”
Will It prove sufficient?
