Fest Opinion Is That Cold Spell Cost
Peach Growers Millions of Dollars.
For several weeks past the fruit
crop has alternately passed the dan
ger period and been killed, but con-
sentative opinion is that it really suf-
fered considerably from the recent
cold weater and blighting frosts. In
this section the damage is estimated
at sixty per cent, while in northern
Georgia the crop is almost total
loss.
OF course it is impossible at this
early date to even get an accurate es-
timation of the damage done, but
those who have studied the peach in
dustry and know it's condition in all
stages place the loss at more than half
the crop. All agree that it will cost
the fruit growers of Georgia from five
to seven million dollars.
Peaches of all kinds were in full
bloom, and some varieties were ready
to shed the bloom. This is the most
dangerous period of the peach life,
and it can be easily killed just before
it sheds its bloom. The cold wind and
frost nipped the young fruit in the
bud,

THE SOCIAL SIDE IN DAWSON
ENTERTAINMENTS THAT HAVE
OCCURRED THE PAST WEEK.

Young Matrons' Club Enjoy a Deligh
ful Affair at Mrs. Davidson's. An
Elegant Wedding Luncheon.
Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Walter
Davidson entertained the Young Mat
rons' Club in very interesting man
ner. That Mrs. Davidson knows ex-
actly how to please her guests was
skillfully portrayed when each young
woman was allowed to vote for our
next governor. Only Hoke Smith and
Clark Howell seemed cleverly in the
race. After the votes were cast cards
were distributed, and each member
was asked to draw an original car
toOn and write an original verse suit
ed to it. Each verse, when finished,
was unique in connection. One verse
ran as follows:
Hoke thinks he knows he II be elected
ON knows he won't and feels detected;
But whatever comes whether Joys or woes
They both will be left with plenty OF nose.
The accompanying cartoon showed
Smith and Watson with conspicuous
noses. Another cartoon showed Clark
in a little gO-cart, Albert and a little
negro near by. Hoke Smith enjoyed
the privilege of pushing the cart, but
discovered the job so easy that he was
enabled to keep his hands two feet
from the handle bars. This verse was
suited TO it:
Kind friends this is easy;
Fact is It's becouIAg cheesY:
Clark is like a baby in go-cart.
With little sense, but kind heart.
This shows him going out for ride,
His valet to watch him, little bert at his
SIDE.
Although he's stout he grows quite light,
And without touching the handles oars he's
soon out of sight.
The next cartoon was certainly fine.
Powell was chlOrofOrmed, and this
verse was the cry:
Cheer no. old boy. they cry to Clark
Who thought his would be a lark;
I'VE know you're sore and must feel bum,
Bat the worst for you is yet to come. "
The ladies were never more enthusi-
asttc over any party than they we're
Mrs. Davidson's. The house was
beautifully decorated with yellow les
samine and ferns. Bronzed candles
were used in lighting the darkened
rooms, and as nearly as possible the
color scheme, yellow, was carried out
"a the menu. Mrs. Davidson is an
adm rable hostess, and each member
who was so fortunate as to be present
spent the time most delightfully."-.
