THERE ARE ten times as many men who need and can afford to buy a suit
of clothes for $15.00 as there are men who can pay $25.00 to $50.00 a suit.
Hundreds of these men are needing clothes today and great bunches of them
are availing themselves of this great opportunity and coming here and buying
them every day. Our clothing sales are the largest in our history.
Take it from me, the suits we offer you today at $15.00 will look next fall
cheap at $25.00.
With the country in the most prosperous condition the world has ever known
there is no reason why every man shouldn’t have plenty of good clothes and
you can if you do your clothes buying at Ansley’s.
Come now while the selection is best.

METHOD OF SKCREftSING
GEORGIA PORK SUPPLY
WASHINGTON, I). C., Dec. 24.—As
a means of helping to increase the
pork supply, the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has released to
the motion picture theatres, through
one of the large motion pictu/e com
panies, a film showing the work of
the boys’ pug clubs which the depart
ment is organizing in all parts of the
country in co-operation with the ex
tension divisions of the state agri
cultural colleges. The him shows
methods of instru ting boys, and in
some instances girls, who have joined
the agricultural clubs, how to raise
better pigs and the methods 'used
by club members in carrying out in
structions. The first lesson taught in
the film story is that it costs no more
to feed and care for the pig of care
fully selected stock than tho scrub,
while the results in meat produced is
greatly in favor of the well-bred ani
mal The picture shows further how
to feed and care for the pigs, how to
protect them from disease and how
to shelter them from the inclemency
of winter and the heat of summer.
The results of wise selection and in
telllnpent care are shown in the well
groomed, fat. healty porkers wearing
the prize ribbons they have won at
county and state flairs
The first pig club was organized
in Louisiana in 1910. Now approxi
mately 45,000 members are enrolled
in the pig clubs throughout the conn
try.

UNUSUAL ADORNMENTS
LONDON, Dee. 24.—Girl workers in
danger buildings at Woolwich arsenal
are not allowed to wear jewelry. They
l ave, therefore, hit on the idea of
wearing colored shoe laces.
n|, cap shop girls appeared one
morning recently with bright emerald
green ribbons in their shoes, much to
the envy of other departments. The
next morning the whole factory was
in the fashion, says Dr. A. K. k ox
well, the principal supervisor.
Ahoes were tied with blue, pink, red
and white ribbons, and with anything
but ‘he government boot lace of un
tanned leather. The fashion spread to

PURE FOOD m DRUG
■ LAW* GREAT SUCCESS
WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.—Ten years
'of enforcemjent of the Food and
j Drugs act /of June 30, 1906, are re
‘ viewed in the current annual report
o. the Bureau of Chemistry, United
States De par tun nt of Agriculture,
which says that the act's chief .con
tributions to the people’s health ahve
been its < orrective effective upon the
drug and patent medicine industry,
1 its control in trade of unclean milk,
polluted, decomposed or filthy foods,
and protection of foodstuffs from con
tmination with poisons likely to be met
in manufacture.
The general effect of the Food and
Drugs act may best be estimated, says
the report, by considering its effect
upon food and drug control by the
sates; upon development of the food
and drug industries and by the prin
cipal abuses that have been corrected.
But to illustrate the scope of thework
through figures and facts the report
points out that more than six thousand
prosecutions have been terminated in
the courts la the first decade of the
act; that manufacturers have been
cited at hearings more than forty
thousand times, that many thousands
of factory inspections have been made,
and that more than seven hundred and
fifty thousand shipments of domestic
or imported food and drugs have been
examined.
Special attention has been given to
shipments of polluted or spoiled food.
Milk shipped in interstate commerce
and imported from Canada has been
improved in cleanliness, purity, and
the condition of sanitation under
was produced. Other products in
whose handling and sale improvement
has been noted include mineral water,
tomato products, fruit, vinegar and
gelatine.
One consequence of the enactment
of the food and drugs act was to en
courage similar legislation in many
of the states the purpose of which is
to control local traffic in food and
drugs which, since no interstate com
merce is involved, are not subject to
the federal laws. A state could not
prosecute a manufacturer unless he
were a citizen of that state. Tho fed
eral law supplements the state law
in this respect and now most of the
states have similar laws.
