THE OPPORTUNITY
OF A LIFE-TIME TO

$25
In Order To Widely Advertise The Marvelous Possibilities Of
CRICHTON’S IMPROVED SYLLABIC METHOD
A limited number of shorthand scholarships will be issued at the very reasonable
mips
price of $25.00 each.
We have demonstrated, to our entire eatlifeotlon, that Crichton's Syllable METHOD gets reeulte abiolutely
impossible by old-fashioned methods of teaching, and to fully advertise this fact a limited number of scholarships
will be sold. POSITIVELY WITHOUT "TIME LIMIT.”
CRICHTON'S SYLLABIC la not a new SYSTEM, but a new METHOD. It has received the unqualified en
dorsement of the most prominent shorthand reporters of Atlanta. "It gets resulte, and It gets them in a hurry."
It Is what others say of us. NOT what we say of ourselves, that produces conviction.

Company, and one of too most accomplished Gralmui writers In t

MAY BUY CARS CHEAPLY;
FIVE COMP AMES BIDDING
In thte day. when nearly everything a
man needs and uses Is controlled by a
trust, real, live competition comes
along, when it does come, ea a pleasing
novelty to break a distressing monot
ony.
This particular competition Is one
that benefits a corporation, and as a
result experts say the Atlanta, Birm
ingham and Atlantic railroad will get
a big string of freight care at prices
cheaper than In any years past. And
this despite the cry of advanced prices
of steel and lumber.
At the present there are representa
tives In Atlanta from no leas than nve
car-building corporations and each one
le anxious to land the contract for the
1,710 coal, Hat and box cars and ca
booses which the company will order.
ie retrenchment by the
railroads ae a result of the popular agi
tation against railroads all over the
country, the car-bulldlng firms are
anxious to get business to keep their
plants going In the future, it was
declared Friday by an expert that they
see very little In eight In the near fu
ture, and for that reason they are will
ing to take the A..B. A A. order ter
keep their plants going and not make
any profit.
This sounds like an Arabian Nights
Isle, but the expert says It Is true, and
that It will result In the A., B. & A.
getting the cheapest cars sold In sev
eral years. Those bidding on this order
are the South Atlantic Car and Manu
facturing Company, of Waycross; the
Western Steel Car Company, of Annis
ton; the American Car and Foundry
Company, the trust, of St. Louis, and
many other places; the South Balti
more Car Works and the Middletown
Car Company, of Middletown; Pa.
