Caused Much Rejoicing.
kilograms were received last night
from Louisville by friends of Georgia
Knights of Pythias. to the effect that
the company had taken the second
prize in class A in the competitive
drill. The second prize was 5000.
The announcement was hailed with
great enthusiasm by the friends of

ward of hard, persistent work had
come and all who heard the news re-
joiced with the winners.
The contest selected by the COM
pany was the highest of all, crack
teams from all over the United States
being entered. That the Savannah
company should have been able to
hold its own against such a combina-
ton speaks well for its perfect train
ing.
Members of the other uniformed
companies were especially proud of
the fact that a company from their
own city had earned such glory and
brought themselves so prominently be-
fore the representatives of the order
from all parts of the country.
Some of the members of the win
ming company will reach Savannah to-
morrow morning. Others have ar
ranged to return by way of st. Louis
The following were the members of
the company which won the prize:

a good idea to look up your light weight

you have a last years suit that can be
cleaned up to look as good as new. Then
there is the other suit-that is faded. We
can transform that into a spanking brand

You say you had a suit dyed once and
you'll never have another one done. 1t

have attempted. they can start a dye

TOO Late the LUCKLESS customer
finds that out to his sorrow. Dyeing and
cleaning are both an art and a science.
