A HAPPY PICNIC.

There was no formal program for the
old folks at Garfield. The dining paw
lion seemed TO be the chief attraction
nearly all day and a picnic, in the
truest sense of the word, was held
there. In nearly every case the old
people brought their own lunch baskets
but those who had not done so were
provided for and the committee passed
around lemonade to everyone about
noon.
In the afternoon the old folks choir
assembled on the stage in the pavilion
and as many of the people as could
do so congregated there. The choir
sang number of selections and then a
dozen or more of the oldest people We're
introduced from the stage. Presents,
consisting principally of plain dress
goods. were presented to a number of
the old people, including the women
from the infirmary, each one of them
receiving material for a dress and also
a bottle of wine. present was also
given to an old woman, 81 years of age,
who still works for her living, and
shoes were given to the Oldest man
with the largest feet, and the oldest
woman with the smallest feet the
latter being awarded an old lady of
so who wears No. 211. The distribution
of the presents created a great deal
merriment.
Later in the afternoon an orchestra
was stationed on the platform and
there was dancing for an hour or more.
THEY DANCED TOO.
The young people took the principal
part in this but a half dozen or more
old couples also appeared on the floor
for few minutes. A number of young
people bathed in the lake during the
afternoon and even three or four per-
sons over 20 tried the water.
There is no doubt that the old people

COMPLIMENTS FOR THE GIRLS.
The Eufaula Times Says Nice Things OF
Three of Dawson's Fairest


The following extracts from the Eu-
faula Times account of the commence
ment exercises of Union Female College
will be read with much interest by the
friends of the young ladies mentioned:
"MisS M!ze had reason to feel a thrill
of pride and triumph last evening over
the smooth and artistic manner in which
the programme was rendered bv her
class in oratOry. Miss Mize is but a
slip of a girl herself, but sue is one of
the most finished readers it has ever
been our good fortune to listen to, and
she is fast rising to the very front rank
as teacher of oratory.
Then pretty, mischievous
looking sprite in a short, scarlet frock
and white apron and sunbonnet bounded
on the stage aud remarked that she was
Naughty Zen." The sunbonnet throw
aside disclosed the laughing face of Miss
RuShabelle Geise and the BOYS broke in
to wild applause, for Miss RuShabelle is
great favOrte. She portrayed the
woes and escapades of naughty little
girl in a manner that fetched the au-
denCe.

mated fashion, read of The Heroine as

STRIKE DOWN PUBLIC SCHOOL?I
A MOVEMENT ON FOOTTO ABOLISH
THE SYSTEM,
Notice of a Bill to BE introduced in
the Legislature Is Advertised
in The News.
in The News.

Notice is given in the advertising COL
umns of THE News that bill will be in
trOduced when the legislature meets in
October to abolish the public school sys-
tenn of Dawson.
Investigation by THE News reveals the
fact that behind this movement to abol-
lsh the public school system of Dawson
are number of well-known citizens and
taxpayers. They opposed the establish
ment of public schools when the ouee
ton was submitted to the voters of the
city several years ago, but were over
whelmingly defeated, mastering less
than fifty votes OFT of more than two
hundred. They now claim that the
schools are burdensome to taxpayers and
too expensive for the number of pupils
who attend them, insisting that the same
number of children could be better
schOoled in the old way at less than half
the cost.
How much If Il fight those interested
IN having the schools abolished will put
up is not known, but it is not at all like
~ that they will have things all their
own way. The friends of the school. and
they are numerous, will be heard from
at the right time and seem not to fear
the issue.
Representative Kendrick is a member
of the board of public sch Dol commits
sioners and is strong supporter of the
system, while Senator Stevens is an ex-
member of the board and has always
been friendly to the schools. 1t is not
thought that the opposition will receive
much sympathy or aid from either of
these gentlemen in their efforts before
the legislature to abolish the schools,
