A SCIENTIFICALLY BUILT WATCH.

In this day an time, when there
is so much cheap stuff on the market,
it is practically impossible for a per-
son who is not an expert to select
a really good article in any line.
The good is always initiated. If an
article has no limitations it has
proven a failure. The good watch
maker has his imitators as well as
others. 1t is always cheapest to get
the good to begin with.
We have special reference to the
adams Special high grade watch,
at price which large majority pay
for a low grade.
How many more watches do you
expect to buy?
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1910-06-08

One more is enough for the bal
ance of your life-if it is an Adams
high grade. This watch is time
keeper which is making Adams
Jewelry Store famous (along with
other good things)
II you carry watch you evidently
want the time, or you would not
have the watch.
II you are Indifferent we can save
you money on cheap watch-we
mean an Elgin, or one like you are
probably accustomed to carrying.
We have quite a number of second
hand Elgin, Waltham and other
makes which have been traded in
on part payment for the Adams
Special high grade, and you can have
Them cheap if you want that kind.

In the Presence of a Large Audi
ence. Mr.. Copeland's Address.
The graduating exercises of the
Dawson High School, held at the
school auditorium last Tuesday even
ing, were highly enjoyed by very
large audience. The auditorium was
packed to standing room, which only
goes to show Dawson's great need
of a large assembly hall.
The stage was most beautifully
decorated in the class colors, old gold
and white. Just above the stage APP
peared the class motto: "Ignoranti-
bus soils est sapientia odiasia,' while
at the foot of the stage ensconsced
in a bank of flowers sat the bird of
wisdom, the class emblem. All the
numbers on the programme were rem
dered in a manner showing thorough
preparation and careful training.
The music, including a chorus of
girls, male quartette and an instru-
mental trio, was especially enjoyed.
Miss Mary Marshall, as salutato-
rian, in her "Toast to the DID," de-
livered a beautiful tribute to the past
associations of school life. The orig
inal grafton by Mr.. Clarence Raglan
on the Young Man of the Twentieth
Century" showed fine thought and
high ideals. Though interrupted dur
ing his speech by the light failing
he spoke in a clear, forceful manner,
showing the young man equal to the
occasion.
Miss Jamie Stewart, in the read
ling, "Sonny's Diploma" gave a
splendid Interpretation of dialect
work, making happy hit with the
audience.
The valedictory, "a Word for the
New" was delivered in a most pleas
ing and impressive manner by Miss
Louise McNulty.
The literary address, delivered by
Mr.. ]. B. Copeland of Valdosta, was
pronounced by many as the finest
they had ever heard on similar oc-
casion. His speech was clear cut,
logical and forceful from beginning
to end.

TAFT IS REPORTED
READY TO QUIT
SAID NOT TO DESIRE A RENoM-
NATION FOR THE
PRESIDENCY
New York Times Publishes Remarks
Said to Have Been Made to Presi-
dents Friends-Rumor Not Dignified
BY Affirmation or Denial From Bev-
erIy.

New York, Sept. 16.-President Taft
is not thinking of the campaign of 1912
and probably does not desire sec
ond nomination, according to the New
York Times. The Times prints a spe-
clal dispatch in which President Taft
is quoted as having said to friend
several weeks ago:
Il am not thinking of 1912. In fact
| do not know that I desire renomi-
nation. From the way things are drift
ing it may be that no republican can
be elected, save probably one.''
The Times continues: From an
different source, the Times
correspondent is informed that Presi-
dent Taft made substantially the same
remark to another friend. These state
ments have been repeated among asso-
ciates of the president until they are
almost common property For this
reason additional weight is given in a
dispatch sent out by the United Press
yesterday saying that in all probability
President Taft will not be a candidate
for another term.
"The president has thus far demon
strated little interest i'll the politics of
the future beyond March 4, 1913.
THE chef idea of the president is to
fulfill the party pledges. There has
been studied silence on his part
about political topics. 1t is no secret
that he is much discouraged. Roose-
velt's course has undoubtedly annoyed
him. The triumph of the insurgents
in number of state primaries. the
refusal OF certain republican conven-
lions to endorse the administration,
and the great overturn in Maine, have
caused him vexatiOn.''

ROOSEVELT HAS NOTHING
TO SAY ABOUT RUMOR.

New York, Sept. 17.-Colonel Roose-
welt yesterday resumed his editorial
duties in the Office of the Outlook.
Suave and affable, the colonel was
willing to discuss any question with
one exception. He refused to COM
ment on the report that President Taft
has declared that he will not be- a
candidate for reelection in 1912 If
Roosevelt decides to try again for the
presidency.
There have been many stories
floated concerning what ! will and
what will not do, and in all pPb-
ability there will be many more in
the future. There have been many
attacks on me, too, and of course
there will be more. do not propose
to discuss any of them, past, present
or future COL Roosevelt said.

PRESIDENT IGNORES
RUMOR ABOUT SELF.

Beverly, Mass, Sept 1.-THE pub
LEGATION of story in certain news
papers, purporting to come from Bev-
erly and announcing that President
Taft has decided to step aside as a
presidential candidate in 1912 to
make way for Col. Theodore Roose-
welt, brought many inquiries to the
summer capital.
It was decided not to dignity the
story, which is reported to be without
any foundation whatever, with state
ment.
1t can be stated that there has been
no change in President Taft's attitude
toward a second term since he told a
number of friends a few months ago
that he would accept second nomi-
nation if his party desired it.
