Dear Sir: The following is a word'
of commendation for Prof. Von Hofe.
I have known him personally for sev
eral years. He is a tireless worker,
never letting go till the end is accom
plished. He has been Director of
Music in Andrew College for the past
10 years and during the sameé time
has played pipe organ at the Baptist
church, directed choir work, both
senior and junior choirs; instructed
a number of young men who now
compose a very efficient city band,
and as a result of his teaching we
have a very efficient orchestra in the
Methodist church. He is a man who
is quick in execution and gets results
in a short time.
Very truly,

Mr. G. E. Von Hofe, Cuthbert, Ga.
My Dear Sir Sir: Your letter came
promptly, but just at the close of our
school term, hence my delay in an
swering. As te your work here in Mec-
Comb, there is absolutely no dis
count to be placed upon it. Your
teaching has stood and the people ap
preciate it now, as they were inca
pacitated to do when you left here.
We have not had a teacher before or
since who could compare with you,
and 1 gladly bear testimony to this
fact. I am yours sincerely,

Twas Said:-
The other day a hoy went to a
provision store and asked for
“half a dozen black hen’s eggs.”
The grocer laughed. “Eggs from
a black hen!” he exclaimed.
“How can you tell them, my little
man,” D
I can, My mother told me how.”
“Well, here you are. Let me
see “you pick them from this
crate.”
The boy carefully selected the
six biggest eggs he could find,
put down the money on the coun
ter and said, “These are black
hen’s eggs I have taken.”
Our experience has taught us
that there are many good shop
pers among the children, but
whether your children are old
fashioned in shopping or not, you
can send them to us for your
needs and you can rest assured
that they will receive the same
attention and obtain the same
good hardware, as you receive
.when you shop in person. Every
arficle is guaranteed to satisfy
and can be returned if it is not
just what you want.

To whom it m;y concern:
Prof. G. E. Von Hofe was Teacher
of Piano in Bessie Tift College dur
ing the session 1917-1918. Before
the scholastic year, Prof. Von Hofe
* came to the college, put all the pianos
in good repair and tuned and thor
cughly rencovated our pipe organ.
Men from the factory had worked
on thiy and had done it no good.
Everybody was surprised to find that
it was placed in first-class condition
and really seemed as good as new
when Prof. Von Hofe had finishdd his
work. But this is by no means the
most important work done for us by
this splendid Christian gentlemen.
His work with the girls in the studio
was done intelligently and conscien
tiously. The results of that work
was evidenced in the recitals given by
his students.
I heartily recommend him to any
one who has a daughter wishing to
take piano, organ or violin.
I know no man better qualified to
do any mechanical work connected
with repairing and tuning.
