T. H. FIELDER
IS A BOOSTER
IN EVERY WAY
PROMINENT OIL MAN OF ANDA-
LUSiA is ENTHUSIAST OVER
THE WIRE GRASS SECTION, AND
HAS LREADY "MADE GOOD" IN
HIS IMPORTANT ENTERPRISES

Frank H. Fielder, who came to An
dalusia a little more than one year
ago to take charge of the Andalusia
Oil Mills, has made good" in his
work, and there is a reason for it.
Mr.. Fielder said when he left Mont
gomery to link his fortunes with the
people of the Wiregrass country, that
he intended to give the best efforts
of his life to his new work and the
record of his mill speaks for itself.
Mr. Fielder likes to talk the Wire
grass and Covington county, wherever
he goes.
He thinks that Southeast Alabama is
the garden spot of the earth, and he
likes to tell his old friends up in the
Black Belt country about the fat mules,
big crops. new school houses, churches
and pretty women, too, that only the
Wiregrass can produce
For several years Mr.. Fielder was
connected with the First National Bank
of Montgomery and prior to that
taught school after graduation from
the University Of Alabama.
He has made good" wherever he
has been placed.
Covington county has no more loyal
and enterprising citizen than the wide
awake, alert and progressive Gil mill
man.
Mr.. Fielder is interested in church
work and contributes literally to every
worthy cause.

past three years with the Andalusia
Bank and Trust Company as its very
efficient cashier.
A young man possessing many
friends, accommodating, pleasant to
meet in a business way, and thor
oughly competent to handle his i'm
portant part of the banks large bust
ness interests, he has steadily in
creased the deposits.
Each year, in fact, the bank has
seen a wonderful increase in its de-
posits, until it is now one of the very
strongest in Covington county.
w. L. Padgett is bookkeeper, and,
bank, has filled his position to the sat
sfaction of all concerned.
Progressive and Conservative.
Progress and conservatism is the
joint policy at the bank, and 1t has
done its work in the success which
has always been enjoyed by the Or
ganization.
Regularly on the lookout for any ad-
ditiona1 service for its patrons, the An
dalusia Eank and Trust Company was
the first bank in Covington county to
offer the people a savings bank apart
ment for their money.
This departure was fully appreciated,
too, as results showed afterward.
The bank has steadily grown in i'm
portance and popularity, too, along
with its general policy of taking good
care of the interests of the people all
people right to the very best of it's
ability, and under all circumstances
has made it many friends.
The fact helped too that every man
connected, has always been heart and
SOUL with Andalusia, in her fight for
supremacy among the smaller Ala
bama towns-a fight in which she has
been successful through the very
spirit of her people, and it has been
through this very spirit of progress,
that the tank and its interests have
grown very, very close to the people
of Andalusia.
The public spirit and ideas of
progress entertained and exercised by
those who have the interests of the
bank at stake, have helped, of course,
tuition. to also upbuild the more i'm
portant interests of the city and of
the comm Unity, and it has been to both
these ends that the men at the head
of the splendid enterprise have worked.
A Valuable Institution.
The Andalusia Bank and Trust
Company is a valued institution, both
of Andalusia and of Covington county,
and is viewed in such a light by hun
dreds of people who appreciate what
a Well-managed organization of the
kind means in the general business de-
of a community.
Always interested in the progress
and further success of Andalusia, it's
people have unvaryingIy been among
the first to aid in any matter of public
which might present itself
for the benefit of all concerned.
And above this, they have succeeded
in building up a business which has
attra Cted attention everywhere, added
to the prestige of the city in many
ways, and which has aided in the
project which is interesting everyone
in the Andalusia section, that of a
greater and broader development of
it's present splendid resources.

P. LEWIS IS
FIRST JEWELER
OF ANOALUS|A
HIS SHOP is THE MOST ATTRAc-
TIVE OF IT'S KIND IN THE CITY,
AND he HAS MADE A FINE
BUSINESS RECORD SINCE HIS
ARRIVAL IN 1901.

p. Lewis. Andalusia's leading jeweler
and optician, started in business in
that city IL years ago and by constant
attention to his interests, splendid ideas
as to management, and plain hard
work, has succeeded in building up
one of the best and most up-to- date
places of business in southeast Ala
bama.
He carries a complete stock, valued
at $4,000, and has kept pace with the
steady and rapid growth of his adopted
city.
Ahdalusia was a town with but 500
inhabitants when Mr.. Lewis came in
1901, but even at that early stage in
the latter day development of the sec
ticn, he saw, with his 4en business in
sight, that possibilities and great pros
perity were in store for the city, and
for the right kind of people who would
be willing to cast their ,ot there.
With this very thought in view, Mr..
Lewis went to work to gain a foot
hold among the business interests of
the city which had already so thor
oughly impressed him, and he has sue
ceeded most admirably.
His store is the most attractive jew
lelry store in Andalusia, and the stock
is perfectly selected, to suit the taste
of the most fastidious.
1t is a pleasure, indeed, to enjoy the
fine courtesy extended you in the
Lewis jewelry shop; to select from the
beautiful and dazzling array of the
things he will show you, and, in buy
ing, to know that you have received
the fullest possible value for your
money.
This is the kind of business man
world finds in Mr.. Lewis.
