THE MACON DAILY TELEGRAPH: TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 27, 1908
’Leven Million Pairs
in Eleven Years
Represents in round numbers our distribution of
RED SEAL Shoes since we have lived in Atlanta.
While the great majority of these were made for
and sold'to the people of the South, we have sent them
to nearly every state, from Marblehead, Mass., to Los
Angeles, California.
Our export department has records of shipments to
South Africa, Korea, Central America, Cuba and
Porto Rico.
As we look back upon it now it is not without
regret that we shame-facedly admit that ninety-six
per cent of all that this vast business represents has
been annually sent back to New England to build up
its communities. »
We have set our face in another direction, the South
will make its own shoes and that within the present
genertion. It will do so quickly by your earnest,
helpful co-operation.
Now listen—
When half the people in Georgia insistently call for home-made Shoes, the
call will make a noiso that will mean a half dozen shoe factories for the state.
When “Made in tho .South,” becomes the pass word that stands for sub
stantial support and popularity, there will come a demand that will warrant
and bring a shoe factory to every industrial centre of the South. %
In tho meantime, ns your nearest shoe-making neighbor, we invite your
friendly" indorsement of our p oneer work in this field. Our platform will be
better shoos for the same price. If we do not merit your support, we will
not deserve nor expect it. -
You ask what kinds of shoes we are making in Atlanta, here are some
of our popular brands: —
Yours truly $5.00
King Bee .$4.00
, Easy Street $3.50
Kenton $3.00
Thesb are on sale by the leading merchants of nearly every city and town
in the South. We will appreciate your calling for them.
J. K. Orr Shoe Co.,
, ' Atlanta
P. S.—If economy enters into the calculation, it may not be amiss for
you to know we have long service records on King B ee Shoes of from six to
sixteen months regular wear.

Industrial Schoola for Young and Old,
Localities Forced to Maintain Them.
The Interested American traveler who
enters Germany from the east by way of
Craoow usually hangs out of the roomy
window of the railway carriage In order
better to see the seemingly endless string
of mills and smoking chimneys. The
scene, perhaps, reminds him of the
crowded Lehigh Valley ntar Its Junction
with the Delaware, and it certainly
gives him a vivid Impression of the In*
dustrial awakening which baa taken pos
session of Germany. It helps him to
realist why "Made In Germany** ‘ha* be
come a better known phrase than "Made
in France’’ or "Made In Austria.*’
The perusal of an article by Albert A.
Snowdon In a recent number of the
Teachers College Record, entitled **The
Industrial Improvement Schools" will let
the reader into a secret of thla rapid
growth of Germany, if It la any longer a
secret. Wurtemberg Is a country not ao
large as New Jersey, and having only a
little larger population, wedged In , be
tween Baden and Bavaria. Tn Southern
Germany. It la styled the kingdom of
contentment, because tha "stout and
luirdy men and the nut brown maidens
there" are busy doing things that they
like to do. The condition of the coun
try today is a triumph for the dear eyed
men who saw how to make a land with
few natixral advantages obtain for Itself
a place in the Industrial procession. It
has salt mines, to be sure, but It has
little coal or water power for manufac
turing purposes., Its government owned
railroads cannot be depended on to re
duce the taxes, for the country Is unfor
tunately located. The shining rails of no
transcontinental route stretch across Its
territory and It Is the victim of traffic
discrimination. Tourists, the salvation of
some sections of Europe, trouble Wur
temberg little. It Is -
hilly country, ona-thlrd ef which la cov
ered with forests owned by the govern
ment Indeed, the forests are the chief
resources of the government producing
last year through the scientific methods
of forestir pursued a net Income of near
ly 93.00t.00t without Injuring the forests
In eny way. There are no bonanza farms
scattered throughout the little kingdom.

one would think that Wurtemberg’* op
portunities for growing wealthy were not
so bright os they might be. Tho peoplo
of mnny years ago saw that their way
out of the difficulty lay In making quali

kingdom Is not wealthy, It ia prosperous

mains of Mr. Will G. Freeman, who
died on Saturday at MJdylllv, were
Interred yesterday afternoon at the
Stanley family burial ground In the
uppor part of this county.
Mr. Freeman had been 111 fop soma
months with a complication of trou
bles. His health had been bad for
years.
He was a native of Alabama, -but
had been living in Georgia for a num
ber of years. Ho was stationed in
Macon for several yenra, being con
nected with tha Southwestern Rail
road. For some years past ho had
been engaged In farming at Mldvlllo.
Mr. Freeman was marrlod, but had
no children. Ho is survived by his
wife, who was Mrs. Susie Smith, nco
Miss Murphree, two half slaters, Mrs.
Llxxle Stanley ^nd Mrs. J. B. Dug

Arthur, of Macon, Is a niece and

There was a large crowd present at
the interment yesterday afternoon. Tho
funeral services wero conducted by
Rov. William F. Smith, pastor of the
Dublin Methodist Church,
Miss Cheley Campbell.

that section desired them to be so. In
1905 there were 249 Industrial and com
mercial Improvement schools, public
drawing schools and "women' work”
schools scattered throughout the king
dom, with a total of 21,574 students. Of
these Institutions 150 were Industrial im
provement schori* for young men. Only
twenty-two of these w»re compulsory,
with an attendance Of 1,340 students, or
an average of 61.31 for each school. The
non-compulsory schools bad an average
attendance of 143 pupils each, or IV
for the whole number. Thie number
doubtless will be Increased through the
operation of tha new law. Of the four
commercial Improvement schools, two
were compulsory, with a total attendance
of 225, and two were non-compulsory,
with a total attendance ef 1,020.
There were also 42 drawing schools,
with SOI pupils registered. For the girls
there were 15 Industrial schools, with
1,042 pupils in attendance, and 22 "trade
schools" for girts and women, wllh
6,258 names on tha rolls,
f Older Workmen Attend.
The Interest which these schools hove
for the peoplo Is Illustrated In anothsi
way. Older workmen as well as apprea
(ices are anxious to attend them. Mr.
Snowden tells of a man fifty-two yta* , t
of age who entered tha office of the dl
rector of the Stuttgart Industrial Im
provement school one avenlng, whim he
was conversing with that official, and en
rolled for the thirtieth half-year in tho
Institution. Mr. Snowden says that he
talked with many persons who bad been
in regular attendance for ten or a dozen
