WILL CONSULT AN ARCHITECT
School Board Wants to Enlarge Pres
ent Building or Erect Two Glass
Rooms and Auditorium.

hOOlIlS anu AUDITORIUM
The board of city school commits
sioners are of the opinion that the
335 pupils in attendance upon the
white school are badly overcrowding
the present building, and have au-
thorized preliminary steps looking
to ultimate relief of the situation.
At meeting of the board Friday
the building committee, composed
of L. Lamar, chairman, J. d. Weaver
and B. F. Melton, were instructed
to employ capable architect to in
spect the building and grounds and
furnish an estimate as to the prob
able cost of enlarging the present
structure or erecting another one
with two or three class rooms on
the lower floor and an auditorium
in the second story.
A year or more ago the school
board requested the council to take
under consideration the question of
issuing bonds for the improvement
of the school building, but no action
was taken by that body
There is no doubt that Dawson
needs a more creditable school
house.

DAWSON TAKES MORE GAMES.
Champions VIII Go Macon Friday to
Play Mercer Team.

The Dawson high school closed
the basket ball season here last week
with two more victories to its credit.
The team has been very successful
this year under the coaching Of Mr..
Mosley, having played IA games and
won II out Of that number Dawson
has become interested in the game
of basket ball, and the team heartily
appreciates the support they have re
ceived at home.
Friday night Albany, Dawson S
rival OF long standing, came over, as
they said, to take the final game
from the home boys. They had been
pr9cticing for weeks just in order to
beat Dawson. What a PITY Daw-
son simply ran away with them, and
put the score up to 62 while they
held Albany to eleven.
The Lanier High School of Macon,
having gotten their mettle up by
beating the Griffin High School by
a heavy score a few days ago, came
down and tackled the Dawson irwin
clbles Saturday night The result
was disastrous for the Central City
boys, as Dawson put it on them by
a score of AZ to 6.
Next Friday night the local team
will up to Macon for another game
with the Lanier High School, and al
so game with the Mercer second
team on Saturday night. This will
be fine trip for the boys, and one
they deserve, as they have played
faithfully and hard throughout the
season. This will likely be the last
game of the season by the Dawson
team unless there is some other high
school in the state that wants to test
the state championship with the To-
cal team. The boys have sent out a
challenge to m ct any high school in
the state. If this challenge is not
accepted they will be declared the
champions

Mrs. Rumsey's Part.
Mrs. Charles Cary Rumsey-Miss
Mary Hartman that was-turns her
work toward girls who must earn
their own living. The practical side
of things is her hobby, not what might
be done or ought to be done. She be-
lieves that conditions must be met as
they are found, In charity as well as
In business.
She started with the teeth Of chill
dren. Somebody had told her that one
Of the troubles Of bringing up the chill
dren of the poor was that they had
such neglected teeth. This brought
on stomach troubles, indigestion, real
disease, bad minds and many other
things. After she had looked into the
question she found she was correctly
informed The result was a fully
equipped dental clinic for children,
where defects In the teeth could be
remedied and where they could get
instruction In the care of their mouths
for nothing.
The Artistically inclined.
Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney-Ger~
trude Vanderbilt that was-is looking
after the girls who have artistic aspi-
rations.
She sees to it now that the girls
who have real artistic bent get a
chance TO work it out. The applicants
must come to her and be tried out.
Those who take up art just for the
novelty soon find that they are not
wanted-it is SO much time wasted.
But those who have ability and de-
sire to learn have proited much by
Mrs. Whitney's help. Her art class
is her contribution to real charity.

by the Standard-and she had the
nerve. brains, intuition, persistence and
nainstaking carefulness. At first her
exposures were regarded sneeringiy by
the Standard Oil people, but as her pen
struck home with mortal thrust they
engaged in the fight. Official state
ments were given out from time to
time denying her allegations. Miss
Tarbell kept at her task, bringing to
light what legislative committees had
failed to find and clearing up points
that had befogged the courts and hnal-
" fixing responsibility where 1t had
previously been in the air.
In a word, it was Miss Tarbell who
won the fight in the field and MADE
ready for the courts to win In a iegal
way, as evidenced by the recent de
cision of the United States supreme
court ordering the oil trust to dissolve.
Miss Tarbell is fifty-four years Old
She is one of the few distinguished
women who are hidden to banquets
where men dominate She has ap-
peared before state legislatures and
given advice to governors. She was
the first woman to be entertained by
the Knife and Fork club Of Kansas
City, where Colonel Roosevelt recently
was a guest. =-sse<tr r.

small boys who are in trouble and
don't know how to get out. 1t has
been the saving Of thousands Of little
fellows who might otherwise have
gone to prison, penitentiary or reforma-
tory. Mrs. Vanderbilt got the idea
that the same thing might be done
for girls, and she followed it.
How the Club Started.
First she began visiting the chill
dren's court, one of New Yorks inter
esting institutions. She learned the
workings of the court and saw what
good it was doing. From casual inter-
est she changed to genuine horror that
so many little girls should be exposed
to such periis. She decided to take
hand theoretically and in a business
like way, and the result is the Big
Sisters club.
First Of all she got DR.. Max g.
Schlapp, the neurologist, to give part
of his time to the work. When he
thought it necessary there was surgi-
cal or medical treatment for the little
people, and many a youngster has
been saved from a career of crime or
worse. Today the helping hand for
girls who never had chance is Mrs.
vanderbilt's hobby, and she has inter
ested other women of her means and
leisure in doing the same work. She
and her friends are working over chill
dren and trying to give them training
and education.
Mrs. Vanderbiit's Views.
'There is a real place for US all in
the workaday world" says Mrs. Van
derbilt, and she has induced many
more to agree with her.
OF course for countless years wom-
en- have been interested In good works.

STANDARD OILS NEMESIS.
Ida M. TarbeIl Began Her Fight Against
Great ManonolY Twenty Years ago.

Ida M. Tarbeil Began Her Fight Against
Great Monopoly twenty Years Ago
In the United States circuit court IL
st. Louis in 1909 John G. Mi|hurn, ar
sufng AGAINST the governments con,
tention that the Standard Oil company
should be dissolved as vioiat0r OF the
Sherman act, remarked, Miss Ida NJ.
Tarbell is entitled to patent on the
alleged Standard Oil conspiracy OF 1893
and the government here is trying 10
deprive her of It.
Mr.. Milburn spoke sarcastically, but
he nevertheless placed the credit TOT
the fight against the worlds greatest
monopoly where it rightly belongs
for it was Miss Tarbell who single
handed began the fight twenty years
ago and who never wavered until the
law had it in its viselike grasp.
| With Miss Tarbell the fight was one
of conscience-her father had been IN
the oil business and had been crushed
