towns It is to be composed of.
The local owners are going to intro
duce a plan to have the league a six
club affair composed of Augusta. Sa-
Irannah, Macon, Charleston, Columbus
and Jacksonville. This will of course do

Knoxville is geographically impossible,

There’s a Reason
Fact is there has been a great deal said about great values in Crave
netted Coats (they certainly are the most practical garment in this cli
mate.')
We decided we wanted a better $25 value than any other store’s best.
We went to market with this in view
—get it or get nothing. They are here —
we got, them.
The same can be said of suits at S2O,
$25 and S3O.
We drew from four great lines.
