Clothes do make
young men!!

Mr.. Young Man, it is undenia-
bly, true that clothes do make
you.
They make you worth more
worth more to your employer as
well as to yourself.
The young man who is we'll
dressed has an advantage. He is
able to make a better impression
on everybody with whom he
comes in contact-always pro-
vided that he is careful to adj
just himself to conditions and
people.
Young men should dress care
fully and neatly. Loud clothes
are a poor passport to any
body's favor. But good clothes,
tasteful well-made clothes, help
a man to win friends and sue
cess.
And so it is fair and reason
able to say a mans clothes do
make him.

Another McWhorter for Georgia
Booze Has a Great Future

a ATHENS, GA, Nov. 1s.-whsI
~ Captain Robert McWhorter's
gridiron career comes to an
end with the Georgia Auburn game
week from Saturday. the McWhor-
ter family as athletes will by no
means De exhausted, and the name
that has put the Red and Black on
the football map for four years will
be perpetuated by the playing Of two
more successors OF the Redoubtable
Bob.
Howard, who was captain of Cor
don Institute last year, Is now at
Georgia, but was hardly strong
enough for the team this fall, and
then there Is Thurmond, last years
mascot and the latest real" find Of
the athletes of the McWhorter clan.
The football career of the family
that Bob has carried into the halls
OF fame dates back to the days when
Marcus was one Of the great st
pitchers that Georgia ever produced,
and who was to the pigskin game of
those days what his little" brother
Robert IS to-day. Then there came
along Hamp, who was himself for a
season one OF Georgia's big men on
the firing line and some football play
er, too. Hamp never got into very
manly US SAAIAVSs bIl ltt cAN dS y WSill
along with the team, and the while
the opposing bunch warmed up he
walked UP and down the sideHnes
with his 1876 pounds of weight just to
show what the team could expect 10
go up against when the whistle blew
'Tis said that he virtually put a
Clemson team to rout down in Au-
gusta few years ago when he APP
peared on the sidelines. and that the
Red and Black had but little trouble
winning.
THEN came the celebrated Robert
whose 1ashing playing has star
tied spectators from the slumbering
region Of Charleston to the lander
ings Of the Rio Grande. To follow
him is Howard, who will have to hur-
ny or his younger brother, who is
hailed by his school comrades as
Booze" will soon have him showed
out Of the limelight.

Schoolboy Rivals
Now Harvard Pals

CAMBRIDGE, MASS, Nov. 15-This
is not the first year that Brickley and
Mahan, Harvard stars, have FLASHED
in search of personal glory. In 1910
Brickley was the star OF the Exeter
team, one Of the strongest prep school
teams in the country. Brickley's mar
veous play at halfback was the strong
est point for the Exeter team.
Exeter's greatest rival is Phillips An
dover. That year a youth named Ma
han was the star halfback Of the An
dover squad.
When the two teams clashed in the
big game, interest conferred in the per
sonal struggle between the two half
backs. In that game Mahan completely
outplayed Brickley. BY means of his
great work Andover won, 81 to 0.
