the State’s most important judges, able,

The system of shorthand taught by
you is the simplest and mos^ accurate,
and the method of instruction the
shortest and most thorough.
After twenty years of active experi
ence as a court reporter. I unhesitat
ingly recommend it above all others.
It is the system used by practically all
the most accurate and successful re
porters.
In addition to what 1 have stated, and
I might truly say that high above all
the other advantages of jour school, is
the moral atmosphere that pervades
your halls. Christian teachers, well
grounded in the Christian faith, and
the influence of their lives render your
college, a fitting place for a boy ami

Yours is the best school of its kind

A HAPPY NEW YEAR
AND HOW TO MAKE IT SO
If everybody in your county kept all the
money they made last year, t hat is, kept it in .just
your town and county, wouldn’t you have some
town?
If those folks who make hog and hominy did
make and raise enough of it to supply those who
won’t, so that all the ducats stayed in the family
like, wouldn’t we make a cheap crop this year?
And then suppose every merchant preached
this doctrine and showed his customers they got
as good value light at home as any far away mail
order house could possibly match, wouldn’t that
mean bigger and better stocks and stores?
Wouldn’t it mean larger markets for what
the farmer lias to sell, and more common sense
prosperity all around?
Well, who’ll start it?
Let’s begin at the bottom and work up.
Did you know, for instance, that the Red
Seal Shoe Factory in Atlanta is asking no odds
of the biggest factories of New England?
It is turning out men’s fine shoes that are
sold in the Peachtree shoe stores, as well as in
the leading cities of every Southern State.
This factory alone has kept over three mil
lion dollar© in the South that formerly went
North—never to return.
It has blazed the way for a new industry
and demonstrated that some day the South will
make its own shoes.
We have so increased our capacity that we
have a place for a few hundred new Red Seal
dealers.
These are some of our best known brands:
Easy Street King Bee
Yours Truly
They sell from four to five dollars and fre
quently wear six to ten months.
So it’s economy to call for
