There is not a woman in Georgia
who would not accept a free trip to
the jamestown Exposition if it was
offered to her free. To see this uni
que fair and all the interesting points
is an education in itself.
The capital prize Of the 81 $50 CON
test is the Cadillac automobile. It's
brand new machine right from the
factory and has all the improvements
accorded the 1907 models. The
Cadillac is the premier of all popular
priced machines and is more economi-
cal than any other make The win

reason. she does not desire to keep it
herself

been taken up with several of the
leading schools of the State, and alb
solute assurance is given that the
scholarships will be first-class and in

course in either one of the two
branches-stenography or bookkeep-
ing.
