F.'Anderson, of Dunbarton, has been elected to membership' in the Born Tailors’ Guild, a national as sociation of master tailors,. accord ing to word from headquarters of ttoe organization in Chicago. The Guild, with the slogan, “Tailors are born and not made,” aims at lifting the tailoring profession Jto a higher plane of perfection in the art'of mak ing clothes and to establish in the mihds of men any young men in defi nite appreciation of style, fabric and tailorship in clothes. The Born Tailors’ Guild is attempt ing to model its organization after the -craft organization of the early English'tithes, according'to W. A. Churchill, who is its executive secre tary. “The members of the old Guilds were bound by oath of brotherlipess to uphold the standard of the profes sion and to pass down from genera tion to generation the treasured sec rets of their craft. Before a man could become a master tailor he had to serve seven years as an appren tice and two years as a journeyman during which time he was taught all the skill and secrets of the trade. The present Guild has much the same spirit. Our purpose is to bind together the master tailors of Ameri ca in an effort to raise the standard of the trade to the end that it may be placed ip^ the class Vrf an art. We further seek to bring h^ck intu the tailoring craft some of the old-time romance and idealism of Tooley street. And above all we want our tailors to reassert^ their pride in perfection of workmanship and to study men’s dress as a profession.” - The Grand Master of the Guild is M. Born of Chicago, head of the tail oring house of M. Born and Co., which he established fifty years ago and ,in whose honor the .Guild is named. *5* Former Barnwell Man Is Producing Bananas X \ Drop in and See Me, if You Come to Miami. ■ x '•' v . -.

Aug. 17.—The hot weather that has prevailed this sum mer has contributed in a beneficial way at least to the production of tropical vegetation and its fruiting. When the Rev. W. J. Snyder and Mrs. Snyder came to Georgetown a little over a year ago, the former to be come pastor of the Duncan Methodist church, he brought with them two banana trees, which they set out in front of the parsonage. These trees have grown rapidly and are bearing fruit which is fast developing. Al ready there are more, than 20 little bananas in sight and every two or three days more are becoming visible. The trees and their product are ob jects of much interest and curiosity on the part of the inhabitants. ■ : ; v- Protection and Beauty Creams, lotions and powders that both protect and beafttify the skin. v- . - * * ' ■ « r # ‘ • " are to be found in the very complete display of Toilette requisites at this S> store.
