Thomas Edward Hodges, Demo-
cratic candidate for Congressman-at
Large in West Virginia, is native
son-of the state, having been born in
Upshur county, December IS, 1858.
His career has been brilliant and
successful one, obtaining the well
earned title of leader in educational,
business and religious circles.
AS boy he worked on MS fathers
farm and engaged in all of those oc-
equations SO familiar to hillside farm
erS, and he there acquired those
habits of industry and persistence
which characterized all his after ills
After completing the work OF the
district schools, ne entered French
Greek Academy, a famous preparatory
school at that time. In 1877 he went
to Morgantown where he was enrolled
as student in the West Virginia Uni-
verSity. His career as student in
that institution was attended with
many scholastic successes, and he
especially distinguished himself as a
college orator. He graduated from the
University in 1881. Following his
graduation Mr. Hodges entered upon
a remarkable and interesting career
in the educational work of his native
state. He was superintendent of the
public schools of Morgantown from
1881 to 1886. In the latter year he was
elected principal of Marshall College,
the State Normal School at Hunting
ton, which position he held for a
period of ten years. In recognition
of his services, at the head of the
Huntington institution, he was in 1890
elected professor of physics at the
West Virginia University. He per-
formed the duties of this position with
distinction, not only building up his
department but contributing materially
through his work to the general de-
velopment of the university. During
the thirteen years that he was pro-
lessor in the West Virginia Univer~
Sity, he became greatly endeared to
the students of the institution on &C
count of his big heartedness, and his
interest in athletics, and all other stu
dent activities. 1t is no disparage
ment to other teachers to say that
Tom Hodges was one of the most
popular men that ever taught in this
institution In 1909 Governor William
f. GlasscOck appointed Mr. Hodges 4
member of the State Board of Control,
new centralized board created BY
the legislature for the financial man
agement of the state institutions.
In 1910 he was elected president of
the West Virginia University by the
State Board of Regents, to begin his
term of service in October, 1911. HIS
Inauguration as president OF the uni
versity took place on November 3,
1911, and was attended by imrosing
ceremonies in which representatives
from colleges and universities all over
the country participated
Mr.. Hodges has always been active
in moral and religious movements in
the educational institutions with which
he has been connected. He has been
an active member Of the Presbyter
ian church, and is noted throughout
his native state as d vigorous expon-
ent of the highest religious ideals.
Parallel to his educational work,
Colonel Hodges has displayed a mark
ed ability in business and financial
matters and today he is considered
one of the foremost men in that line
in the state In no fCuvn bac ba bae,

SYRUP
Because syrup has pretty sound
ing name, and the can wrapped in gor-
geous Autographs, is no reason why it's
contents are pure. Look carefully on
the wrapper and you will see in miscro-
scopic type an innocent looking line or
two. Read those lines, and you will
learn that it is mixed with glucose, or
blended. In other words, it has been
doctored, foreign deleterious substances
having been added.
We SHOULD not tolerate such goods.
The local public should not be a party
to iniuring the name of Georgia Cane
Syrup. It has now a worthy national
reputation Let's help keep it. Repu-
diate the spurious impure brands.
Another thing, the trusts are picking
you up in the weight. If gallon doesn't
absolutely weigh - pounds, there is
trick in it.
We expect to demonstrate in the City
of Atlantasin some central place at
such time as will suit the convenience
of the National and State Chemists
whom we have asked to attend this dem
onstration. At this time, we will serve
Cane Syrup. We will also have other
brands Of syrups and let the public
Judge for themselves the great wrong
being done them by the refneries in
short weights and impure syrups.
We sell the original, and not the i'm
pure kind. We will take orders for our
pure syrups in any quantity. Whole
sale prices on request One gal
Ion Gan delivered in the city and
suburbs, 70 cents. Same price by ex-
