of Everything Else
They re not only the leading lines of fine gar
ments in this locality, but they’re ahead of every
thing else all over the country.
We don’t know just why other makers can’t
make clothes as good as these; there’s no monopoly
of all-wool fabrics, good tailoring, correct styles.
But Hart, Schaffner & Marx and Rogers, Peet
& Co. get something into their clothes that other s
miss; something we can’t describe, but you want it.
It’s here for you; and you’ll find it nowhere else in
town.
Whether you buy or not we want you to come
and see these new Spring styles and our new clothing'
store—said to be the handsomest salesroom here-
abouts.

Greensboro, N. C., March 29.—Thom
as Woodruff, vice president and busi
ness manager of the Mt. Airy Granite
Company, speaking of foreigners as
Immigrants, said that of the six hun
dred employees of the Mt. Airy Granite
Company In their quarry, at least half
of them were foreigners In the sense
that they came hero originally from
other countries. All of them, he said,
became enthusiastic Americans after a
few months’ residence. Of these 300
men, one-third are Swedes, 75 are
Scandinavians, 60 are Scotchmen, 50
Italians, and the rest Irish.
Most of the Scotch and S\yedes and
many of Italians and Scandinavians
are skilled artisans, carvers, atone
cutters and engravers. Of this class
of workmen the company Is not at all
troubled with getting a supply, but for
laborers, men of muscle, qqarrymen, It
Is Impossible to get as many men ns
the company can give employment to.
A large proportion of this class of labor
Is supplied by the native whites of
Surry and adjacent counties In Nortlr
Carolina and Virginia.
There Is a constant addition to the
colony of foreigners In and nround Ml.
Airy. Those there. Mr. Woodruff says,
are making excellent cltlsens.
