Barbecue and Picnic at Verona.

Editor Journal:
Some weeks ago the three
Fraternal Orders at Verona,
Masonic and two Woodmen, viz:
Verona Lodge No. ,263, w. O. w.
Camp No. 129 and Columbian
Woodmen Household No. 484,
agreed to have a joint celebra-
ton with barbecue, picnic and
speaking on the 26th day of
June.
Under the management of the
committees from the three orders
the affair was success in every
way. The muddy roads, the de-
layed M. & 0. train and the
busy time in crops kept many
people away. but the crowd was
large Notwithstanding tn e e
drawbacks.
At 10 o'clock a. m. the pro-
gram was to begin but owing to
the heavy roads the committee of
arrangements deferred the open.
ing until II o'clock.
Judge W. A. Roane. formerly
of Miss, now of Atlanta, Ca.
P. G. M. of Miss, Eminent
Council of Columbian Woodmen
etc., had been invited as chief
orator of the occasion. He was
introduced by Richard Wharton
and took for his theme Fra
ternalism" and delivered very
able and interesting speech of
over an hour. At the conclusion
of his splendid address the large
audience showed their apprecia-
ton by a rising vote of thanks.
The Judge was entertained while
here in the home of his lifelong
friend and schoolmate, DR.. w.
C. Spencer.
The speaking was in the large
auditorium of our school build
ing.
Dinner was then announced
and the assemblage proceeded to
the beautiful grove of oaks sur
rounding the historic old home
of Mrs. Meyer, just north of the
high school building. which is
an ideal place for such an oc-
casion. There under the spread
ing oaks on the grassy lawn our
ladies had loaded the table with
all manner of good things to eat.
The barbecue feature was under
the management of that prince
of good fellows and everlasting
hustler, John Ledbetter. All
who know John are prepared for
what was before US, pigs, lambs,
veal, beef, all done to a turn and
seasoned to a dot. After the
invocation by Rev. A. w. Lang
ley all fell to and Toasted bounti-
fully. There was sufficient to
have fed hundreds more.
At 2::30 O'Clock all returned to
the auditorium and DR.. John
Hunter was introduced and de-
livered an able and instructive
address along Masonic lines. He
uttered many truths that sank
deep into the hearts of the
Masons and should linger long
in their memories. At the con-
clusion of his address the DR..
was also greeted with a rising
vote of thanks and appreciation.
The boys and young men had
some ball games intersperced,
but this scribe failed to get "in-
nings" or inside facts about
them.
We had perfect harmony
amongst the Fraternal Orders
and the community throughout,
for which we feel thankful, also
perfect good order the entire
day.
To our enterprising women we
are under obligation for their
splendid help and presence. To
the entire community we return
thanks. To the following gentle

Want Connection at Smithville Both
Morning and Night With the Ma
con and Albany Train.
Definite steps have been taken to
secure another passenger train on
this part of the Macon and Montgom-
cry division of the Central railroad,
in order that travel may be made
more convenient for the people OF
this section.
A petition asking the authorities
of the Central railroad to put on
train to connect with the Macon and
Albany train at Smithville has been
circulated in Dawson by Mr.. T. G.
Geise and numerously signed. This
petition sets forth the need or the
additional passenger service as 1ol-
lows:
eve, the undersigned citizens OF
Dawson and vicinity and also patrons
of the Central of Georgia Railway
Company, most earnestly request
that a passenger train be put on, to
leave Eufaula, Ala, some time early
in the morning and arrive at Smith
Vile in time to connect with the carry
morning train from Albany to Ma
con, and return after the train from
Macon has arrived at ~mithville in
the evening
1--WE appreciate very much the con-
sideration shown this section by the
Central of Georgia Railway Co., and
have uniformly shown that apprecia-
ton by liberal patronage.
Such a train as asked for would
be a great convenience to the people
of this section, and we believe would
be a paying proposition for the rail
way company. We ask your earnest
consideration of this matter"
Copies of the petition have been
sent to Brentwood, Shellman, Cuth-
bert and Eufaula for circulation in
those towns, and as soon as this has
been done they will all be forwarded
to the authorities of the Central rail
road.
The people of all these towns are
much interested in the movement TO
secure this extra train, and therefore
better passenger service, and are
hopeful that the railroad people
will see the justice of their request.

In this the initial edition of this
column the members of the Dawson
Woman's Club extend their thanks
to tho editor of The News for the
space which he has so generously
given them. The organized woman's
work of Dawson has accomplished
much in it's various branches, both
religious and secular, and much OF
the success has been due to the I'M
failing courtesy shown them through
the columns of our local paper.

Want $lOO AS A COAL FUND
A Total of 500 Already Assured and

List-Names of the Subscribers to
the Fund.

The demands on the charity of the
city during this week have been
much in excess of the usual claims,
and Mayor Joe Dedman and others
are working today to raise fund
for purchasing a car load of coal to
supply the needy in this line.
This fund will be turned over to
the Kings Daughters and will be dis
tributed by them, and the other chart
ty work of the city will also be con-
Quoted by the Kings Daughters, it
having been decided by the city au-
thorities that they were better post
ed as to the actual necessities and
the justices of the claims made.
The amount of the subscription
and the names of those contributing
to the list is as follows:

Columbia Bank & Trust Co., IS; Co

1t will be seen that the toal of
the above is 500. There are many
who have not had an opportunity to
subscribe to this fund, and as it is
the desire Of the committee and the
requirements demand that the fund
reach at least 500. This is a case
where to be niggardly is to be cruel,
for there are families in the city
who are in need of the comfort that
the coal will give them.
William A. Dale, Jr., of the Dale
Coal and Feed Company, has offered
to sell to the Kings Daughters car
load of coal at cost The offer has
been accepted. In the meantime
Mr.. Dale will honor all orders from
the Kings Daughters for coal, re-
turning the amount used from the car
sold at cost.

great Creator has given us legumi-

taken away much of the old time
back-breaking hoeing and handweed-
ing fro mthe truck grower, SO now it
is not such hard work. eliable seeds
of all kinds can be now obtained at
reasonable cost of professional srow-
ers. This is much better than sowing
our own seed. There are some other
branches of farming that dovetail in
with truck growing very closely and
probably. One of these is dailying
This fits well Dairying is peculiarly
the work of early morning and late
evening, while truck growing suits
the sunshiny part of the day. Truck
growing requires little land to cult
vate, while the dairy cows can use
the other parts of the farm for pas
ture, making it more fertile every day
until it comes back into the rotation
able to produce paying crops. Much of
the refuse IF the truck garden, by the
use of the silo. makes the very best
food for the dairy cows, while the re-
fuse from the cows stables makes
the best food for the truck garden.
No business we can follow will build
up and make land fertile so fast as
dairying, and no business we know OF
can use that increased fertility to bet
ter advantage than truck growing.
There is another side line that fits
in well with truck growing and adds
to it's profits. This is home canning
A small home canning outfit can be
made very profitable in saving many
fruits, berries and vegetables that

in the tomato market and they are
bringing only 20 cents a bushel, stop

away for winter and get $500 a Dush-

take to market, put them in cans and
get good price. Do the same with
sweet potatoes, pumpkins. Hubbard
squash, pears, peaches, grapes and
apples. The process is simple, the
work is easy and the profit is sure"
