The season this year is nearly
a month later than ordinarily.
This is due to the unprecedented
heavy and continued rains of]the
summer which have kept back
the cotton crop in the country
and building operations in th<
city.

have moved into their splendid
new building and Lanham A
Sous have renovated the oh
Bass store No. 225 Broad, am
with their magnificent all new
stock have jumped into the very
forefront cf Rome’s commerce
The display at Bass Bros A
Co., is of such a nature that it
sustains the reputation for mil
linery openings this enterprising
firm has carved in Rome’s trade
life.
As to Lanham's, why, well,
suppose you go and see the
magnificent display and if you
will write it up as it deserves,
why, we will give you a year’s
subscription to the Rome Hus

We confess that its beauty
bewilders us to such a degree
that we can’t do it justice.
