We are anxious to make it the
best educational ever
held here- I desire to earnestly
insist upon every teacher in the
county being present and also to
invite those who are not teach-
to be with us. It will be seen
by looking at the above program
that it is one which promises to
be exceedingly interesting. I
cordially invite everybody who
is interested in educational
to be present that day and
help us make it count for good.
The Woman's Betterment As-
will have entire charge
of the day's work and this alone
insures a feast to these who
come.

We are anxious to make it the
best educational gathering ever
held here- I desire to
insist upon every teacher in the
county being present and also to
invite those who are not teach-
to be with us. It will be seen
by looking at the above program
that it is one which promises to
be exceedingly interesting. I
cordially invite everybody who
is interested in educational
to be present that day and
help us make it count for good.
The Woman's Betterment As-
will have entire charge
of the day's work and this alone
insures a feast to these who
come.

The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made so much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in
of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon these until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A
great of these imitations are
to be as as
Schnapps, but there is only one gen-
Schnapps. Be sure the letters
on the tag, and stamped on the plug
under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S
and then have most
wholesome tobacco produced, with
just enough sweetening to preserve
the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of
the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove
that this flue cured tobacco, grown
in the famous Piedmont region, re-
quires and takes less sweetening than
any other and has a wholesome,
stimulating, satisfying effect on
chewers.
If the tobacco you are chewing
don't satisfy you more than the mere
habit of expectorating, stop fooling
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers
formerly bought costing from
to pound; Schnapps is
sold at per pound, in cuts,
strictly and plugs.
