BUTLER WILL TAKE
GILBERT,GLENN AND
ROBERTS TO ROME
Tommy Butler, the popular motorcy
cle exponent, is going to take a rat
tling ctew of drivers to Rome Friday
night for the big Labor day races there, j
has secured Hal Gilbert. Harrv
Glenn ami Ollie Roberts the three best
men in the South. AU three will be
mounted on Excelsiors. In a match race!
for". Axes" all three will fide.- while I
Roberts will also run a "four" in an-j
other event.
Gilbert cleaned up at the race meet
held In Rome a few weeks ago, and he
is a big card there. He broke the track
record by two seconds. He is confident
that, now that in knows the course bet
ter, he v. ;1: be ::bl" to clip some time oft
his own m irk But he will find Glenn
and Roberts right at his heels all tile
way.
Butler is the one active member of

A LITTLE JOURNEY
TO THE HOME OF
JOHN B. STETSON
A Fascinating and Inspiring Story
It deals with one of the great business men of America. A man
who made a great sucess in his business, and some money, and yet,
in the doing of it was steadily building an institution that blesses
the thousands of its employees by making them happy and prosper
ous.
A man can do his best work, only when he is happy, and when he
is sharing in the general prosperity of the business.
Every one who reads the “Little Journey” to the home of this
great business man, will be surprised and gratified to know that the
institution founded by Stetson for making hats, has been equally suc
cessful in making men.
That Stetson makes the best hats in the world is a generally rec
ognized fact, and much credit is due to his human sympathy and his
comprehensive plans.
At our request, several thousands of these books have been
mailed in Georgia. If you have not received a copy, and would like
to read this inspiring story, we will gladly give you a copy compli
mentary. This can be secured by either writing for it or calling in
person at our store.
AN EXTRAORDINARY EXHIBITION OF HAT MAKING,
WILL BE GIVEN IN OUR BIG SHOW WINDOWS SEPTEMBER
1 TO 8. YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO SEE THIS UNUS
UAL EXHIBITION.
