Man Who Isn't Interested Enough
to Help the Party Will Hardly
Be Served With Pie.
The Albany Herald reproduced
from the last issue of The Dawson
News an item to the effect that, in
the event of democratic success in
November, applicants for the Dawson
postmastership promise to be as
thick as stalks on Terrell county
prize acre of corn, and commented
on it as follows:
when it comes to politics and
shifty politicians with an eye to the
main chance Dawson and Terrell
county may be depended upon to
get into the game and play it for all
it is worth. Basing their hopes on
the probable election of a democratic
administration of the national gov
eminent in the approaching election
the patriots over Dawson way are
already beginning to eye the plum
tree with yearning.
1--WE suggest to Editor Rainey That
he might give stimulus to the cam
paign for contributions to the demo-
cratic campaign fund by throwing out
hint that those who get their names
on the list of contributors will nat
urally be in better standing with
those who will have the handing out
of the plums than those who fail
to manifest sufficient interest in the
party's fight to contribute their mite
in response to the call for the neces-
sary sinews of war We have been
thinking of slyly slipping in some
such hint as this in our own baili-
wick"
We thank our Albany contempt
rary for the suggestion, and will
preserve for future reference a list
of all the contributors to the cam
paign fund. Up to date it is shame
fully small, the number not being
half as many as the prospective can
didates for postmaster.
Job hunters and democrats who
are interested in the success of the
party for the sake of its principles
are requested to send in their con-
tributions without further delay The
| time is short.

The teachers of the Terrell county
schools and the Dawson public
schools met at the school auditorium
Saturday morning for the first insti-
tute of the fall term.
State Supervisor F. E. Land was
present and discussed with the teach
ers some Of the problems which are
found in all schools. He laid great
stress upon the Importance of econo-
MIXING time in the school room by
having a fixed daily schedule, the err
ror that some teachers make of re-
curing too many studies of the pu-
Pill and lessons that are too long.
Thoroughness in the studies at
tempted was strongly urged by Com
missioner j. w. F. Lowrey.
Mr.. G. V. Cunningham was pres
ent, and met a number of the mem
bers of the boys corn clubs and the
girls canning clubs. The club wo-
men were also present, and plans for
the school fair to be held this fall
We're discussed. About forty teach
ers were in attendance with a num-
Der of visitors.
Mr.. Cunningham predicts that Ter
rell county will stand at the top in
the yield of the boys corn clubs.
He thinks that there is a good chance
for Terrell to capture one of the
state prizes. He and Miss Creswell
will visit the boys and girls clubs
of the county one day this week.
1t is earnestly hoped that every
school and community in the county
will bring an exhibit to the school
fair in November.

Mr.. Laing Thinks He VIII Lose Three
Or Four Acres of the Nuts.


The continued rain in this Sec
ton is not only damaging cotton by
causing it to sprout in the burr, but
other crops are being injured as
we'll.
Mr.. ]. D. Laing, who has ground
pea patch of three or four acres on
the outskirts of the city that has
yielded prolificly, expects them to be
an entire loss
The peanuts, which he has been

the ground is green with luxuriant

It is a most unusual occurrence,
and is conclusive evidence of the
excessive amount of rain that has
fallen this season.

SCIIAEFER AMUSES
FANS WITH ANTICS
Comedian Scores Hit with Bugs by Cutting Many
Capers on Coaching Line. o.

Germany Schaefer yesterday gave the
washington fans the first glimpse OF
his rear comical actions on the coach

the bugs a run for their money, pulling
a regular vaudeville act at each game,
coming out in a bath robe and intro

along the first or third base line as a
tight rope, giving an imitation Of high
wire act and keeps the fans in con-
tinuous merriment by his witty sayings.
The comedian was in his glory at the
bah yard yesterday. When Morgan was
pitching Dutch would initiate every move
the minstrel man made, going through
the wind up with the Philadelphia pitch
er, splitting on the ball, and then max
ing the delivery. II a Washington play

athletes were at the bat Dutch would

back, intimating that the batsman was

Germany was jollying Connie Mack
along when Morgan was being hit hard,
telling the crafty leader of the World 5
Champs to get busy and start his re-
lief battery warming up. These antics
worried Mack no little In the first IN
ming when the monster ioral tribute was
being brought on the field Schaef went
over and lent a helping hand, giving
an imitation of a man with charley
horse while carrying the design.
The German also acted in the capacity
Of chief usher just before the contest
when he found seats for two ladies in
front OF the grandstand.
