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.

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.

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. Book on Skin Diseases and any medical advice free.
