(Temporary location) WITH OUR GIRLS AT SHORTER COLLEGE Miss Arnold Writes Interestingly to The Weekly. We are in receipt of the follow ing bright and interesting letter from Miss Orin Arnold, and we herewith publish it with pleasure, and we congratulate Shorter, Miss Arnold and the other girls of Hen ry on this fine showing : Shorter College, Rome, Ga., Dec., 15, 1910. Mr. Editor — Thinking you, as well as all other peoDle throughout Georgia, are interested in the rising college of the South, Shorter, I am writ ing you concerning the part the Henry county girls are playing in fhe life of this institution, as well as a few facts concerning Greater Shorter. Henry county is well represent ed here by the following girls: Eunice Ragsdale, Lois Walker, Lois Parr, Lorena Combs, Hester Combs, Hattie Sue Lowe and Orion Arnold. You are to be con gratulated for the prominent part and the good work these girls havn done this fall. Eunice Ragsdale has honored herself and her county by being chosen a champion debater of the Eunonian Society. Beside this, she is associate editor of the Col lege Annual and president of the sophomore class. Our girls are not only promi nent for their literary work, but in athletics also. Lois Walker won the champinship for the spe cials in the tennis tournament, which was played between the dosses in October. Loreno Combs has upheld her record, by being tjie songster and musician of the band. She has taken part in two student’s re citals. And now a few words about our college. The work done here this fall has been good. We have not only gained mentally, but physically as well. There has been an average gain of ten pounds for each girl. The chest expansion of every one of these has increased two to three inches. TAYLOR SAW MILLS LEAD 0 »n Simplicity, Capacity, Durability, Nona Better T Z.

Never has there been heard a complaint con cerning the meals. They are as good as one could look for. Shorter is the only college in the South that publishes two pa pers. The Chimes is managed by the two literary societies, Poly mian and Eunomian. The Acade my Bulletin is published by the academic department. But, what of Greater Shorter? The buildings are all planned and the new college is a known fact. How could it do otherwise than succeed, with such foundations! Already we have $40,000 cash, $75,000 worth of bonds, reliable subscriptions from Rome amount ing to SIOO,OOO, value of land which has been given by Mr. Bass and others, is placed at $60,000. The total amount is now $275,000. In 1911 we are assured of $2,000,000 from other sources. Knowing the interest you have always taken in educational af fairs, lam writing you this.

Mr. Editor—l though I would drop you a few lines, if lam not too late, to print in your paper so Santa Claus can see it. I think I have been a good little girl; I want a few nice presents for Christmas. I don’t want no auto mobile; I see enough of them in the big road. I want a real pretty doll, and a locket and half dozen apples and package candy, and you can bring me some oranges and some other things if you want to. lam sure to get them for I am papa’s baby girl.

Six years have passed since we ventured to publish a Magazine representative of the South and West. To-day we stand alone in the light of a successful and pro gressive literary Magazine, de voted exclusively to the interest of the Southern and Western people. The field which we rep resent cannot be covered by any other publication, that is why we stand on solid ground. We are instrumentaling the development of our Southern Industries. We give the people an opportunity to read of what is being done to-day. This is a brief outline of what the Taylor-Trotwood Magazine is do ing. We are satisfied that this is the best one dollar and fifty cent magazine published, but we are not satisfied with our mailing list. You may get other magazines for lep than $1.50 but you can’t get the Taylor-Trotwood. It is worth that, at least. Send your subscription to Cir culation Department.
