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.

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.
