SCUTI! BL SEND
STRONG TEAM Tn
BIGGOLFEVENT
The South will send to the cham
pionship tournament of the United
States Golf association at Wheaton,
111., which begins Monday, the strong
est team that ever represented it in a
national event. In years pas', quite a
few Southern players have entered the
national tourney, but never have any of
them had a chance. In 1910 quite a
delegation of Southerners entered, but
it was largely a joy-playing proposi
tion, as none of them had the least
earthly chance. This year the South is
sending its best players, to wit, the
team of the Audubon club, of New Or
leans.
The Audubon delegation includes W.
P- Stewart, twice Southern champion;
Leigh Carroll, once Southern champion;
A. F. Schwartz, th" first Southern
champion and low score man at the
last Southern event, ami R. G Rush, Jr.,
one of the top-notchers. In addition,
two other notable Southern players will
take part. They are R. H. Connerly,
for years the champion of Texas, and
H. B. Heyburn, the famous juvenile
golfer of Louisville, Ky.
Out of this bunch of golfers one or
two at least ought to qualify. Schwartz
and Rush are notable medal players
and are likely to edge in anywhere.
Connerly, the Texan, plays in weird
form, but he’s an old ganje cock and a
scrapper all the way. He has been
playing golf since the days of gutta
percha balls and he is a whale in Texas,
where they play mighty good golf.
All in all. the field that faces the
starter at the near-Chicago course on
Monday is the greatest that the event
ever knew. It's a small field. The
class of it has seared off the joy riders.
Look them over; Two Englishmen
are entered, H. H. Hilton. present
holder of the title, and Norman F. Hun
ter, a golfer of almost equal strength.
Former U. S. G, A. champions who will
start will be W. B. Fownes, Jr., cham
pion of 1910; J. I), Travers, champion
of 1907 and 1908; E. M. Byers, cham
pion of 1906; Walter J. Travis, cham
pion of 1900, 1901. 1903, and U. B. Mc-
Donald. champion of 1895. In addi
tion to this lot, there are such classy
players as Albert Heckel, Pau! Hunter.
G. T. Brokaw. T. M. Sherman. Jr., D.
E. Sawyer, Warren K. Wood, Charles-
Evans, Jr.. G. A. Ormiston. F. Here
shoff, Harold Weber, Oswald Kirkby,
J. D. Cady and Harold Downey.
Verily it will be some tournament.
PROCLAMATION!
———l^—————
To The Citizens of Georgia:
3^®, ,nv,t ® y° u to the best and grandest State Fair that has ever been
held m Georgia.
A State Fair is an institution that bids fair to bring good and lasting
results to the state in which it is held.
State Fair is an educational exhibit of county and state industries.
Year by year those who attend the State Fair are demanding that better
facilities for educational advantages obtain. Fewer people attend the
Georgia uitate Fair for the simple purpose of an outing, for a day’s excite
ment, and more are gleaning information from the exhibits. Many county
fairs will be held before the date of the Georgia State Fair, October 15-25th,
anct the best from these exhibits will be brought to the State Fair. We ask
you to support your State Fair by attending and bringing the family, and
profit by toe great lessons learned by studying each and every exhibit, ask
questions, start discussions and absorb ideas from others; after this is done,
uw^ ssoc j, a^’on bas provided you with recreation in the form of the best
ever seen at any previous fair. More free acts to amuse you.
Good music. Make your arrangements early to come. Support the State
Fair for what it is doing in the upbuilding of our great State of Georgia.
T ours for Greater Georgia,
W. E. DUNWODY, President
Georgia State Fair

WALKER HAS LONG LEASE
ON CONGRESSIONAL JOB
BRUNSWICK. GA., Aug. 31.—When
1 J. Randall Walker was declared the
' nominee for congress from the Elev
! enth district today at the congressional
convention here, an end to further
, contests in the Eleventh for some time
to come was marked.
! Generally over the district the opin
i ion is that Mr. Walker will serve in
congress several terms without oppo-
, sition. His strength in the recent pri
mary backs up the judgment of hi.-’
; friends in making this assertion.
When the Mood becomes infected with any unhealthy humor the ef
fect is shown by boils, pimples, and rashes or eruptions on the skin. Humors
' s;et into the blood usually because of an inactive condition of the elimina
, tive members. Thus unhealthy matter is left in the system to sour and
: ferment and be absorbed into the circulation. Remove these humors and
- no skin trouble can exist, because its very source is then removed. Boils,
e rashes, pimples, etc. can never be cured through
the application of external medicines, because such
treatment can have no possible effect on the blood;
the most to be obtained from such measures is tem
porary relief. S. S. S. CURES all skin affections
because it purifies the blood. It goes down intc
the circulation and cleanses it of every particle of
unhealthy matter. Then the blood exercises its
normal function of supplying nourishment to the cu
ticle instead of irritating it with a fiery humor. If
you have any skin trouble you could not do better
■ than purify your blood wSth S. S. S. It does not “patch up’’ it cures.
