Butter Scores Well

outter scores well.
Missoula creamery butter won high
honors at the Western Dairy Products
show, which was held at Portland on
March l and 2 under government SUI
pervision. Missoula butter finished
with only three other brands in the
lead and Stevensvile was only a few
points behind the NIissoula product.
The final score was 1913 for Missoula
and 1915 scored by Stevensvlle. The
highest mark recorded was 1855.
Big Companies Compete.
Creameries such as Swift e. Com
pany's plant at Denver and other large
creameries were represented, Consider
ing the fact that practically every
western state had several samples
entered the record made by the west
ern Montana butter is an enviable
one. The high score was made by the
Albany Creamery at Albany, ore. This
creamery secured a score nearly three
points higher than Missoula butter on
flavor and although Missoula's prod
uct ranked higher on many of the other
lead taken on this one quality was suf-
ficient to give the Albany creamery
the high rank. Manager Butler of the
local plant explained that flavor was
due entirely to the feed which had
been given the COWS and that it was
not a test of superiority in the real
making of butter. but simply showed
that the Oregon factory had secured a
specially good lot of cream from which
this sample was taken.

with the noted president of Cleveland
University that education is not al
together training for efficiency, but
it is to prepare one to enjoy the
highest and best. If there is not
time to teach the pupils to rever-
ence the flag and to revere the prin-
ciples of liberty, justice and truth
for which it stands, it seems to me
it would be far better to fold away
the sacred emblem and hoist Just any
bright bit of cloth to flap itself out
IN the rains and winds of the night.

laurels have just been placed, scorned

By the memory of this white soul
ed patriot and all others who have
sacrificed to keep alive ideals and
impulses necessary to the nations
we'll being let there be no dissertation

Editor of The Dawson News: The
matter of placing the handsome flag
donated by Stone Castle Chapter, D.
A. R., to the Dawson public schools
provoked quite discussion at a re-
cent meeting Of the chapter. The
idea suggested of raising and low
ering each day was ridiculed as i'm
practicable and unnecessary, which
was quite surprising in view of the
fact that the national and state pa
triotic organizations have never en-
dorsed any other plan. The chair
man of the flag committee of Geor-
gia, Mrs. r. P. Brooks, who is GEN
orally regarded as safe and sane"
on all matters, particularly "preven-
ton of Dissertation of the flag" has
this to say on the subject:
"The flag should be given with the
understanding that it shall be raised
and lowered each day, and in the
mornings have the salute to the flag,
the singing of a patriotic song during
that time while the flag is raised
while in the afternoon the flag is
lowered by taps, the pupils standing
with heads uncovered"
The question was asked: "Who in
Dawson has time to salute the flag
every day." In my humble opin-
ion little time could not be more

DAWSON WOODMEN
WILL ENTERTAIN
ADDRESS BY STATE MANAGER
WOODRUFF TO BE FEATURE.
ATTRACTIVE MUSIC.

Dawson Camp, No. "a, Woodmen
of the World has arranged for a
great occasion with an interesting
program at the court house on
Thursday night, January rs, 1917,
at 1880 o'clock. State Manager W.
H. Woodruff of Macon. Ga, will de-
liver the principal address.
This meeting has been gotten up
for the benefit of the public, and all
are cordially invited to come and
bring with them as many friends as
possible. Manager Woodruff is a
fluent and pleasing Speaker, has been
engaged in lecture work for a long
number of years, and his address
will be entertaining and instructive to
all who are fortunate enough to hear
him.
Dawson Camp, No. IA, is one of
the best and largest in the state.
and has recently inaugurated a
campaign for new members, with
the intention of doubling the present
membership. Sovereign Woodruff
knows as much about the inner work
ings and the beauties of Woodcraft
as any man in the South, and his
lectures are eagerly sought all
over the state. His talk is not only
interesting to members of the Wood
men of the World, but to outsiders as
we'll.
The Woodmen of the World is one
of the largest, strongest and most
popular of the secret orders to-
day, and this lecture will enable those
who are not~members to learn many
things of interest concerning it.
Remember that all Woodmen,
their friends and their friends
friends, both ladies and gentlemen,
are urged to be present.

CASHIER ACCUSES
DIRECTORS OF BANK
RAGSDALE MAKES A SPIRITED
TEMENT-SAYS BANK
OFFICERS RESPONSIBLE.

Triton, Cain no case ever
heard in this section of the state
has there ever been such sensational
charges made as those voiced today
by H. E. Ragsdale, former cashier
of the Bank of Omega, and accused
by that institution of the embezzle-
ment of $4,000, when he boldly de-
clared that the directors of the bank
not only were cognizant of his cotton
speculations, but some of them were
parties to it.
Good Fellow When Money Plentiful.
"As long as the money came in
was a good fellow" the defendant
earnestly declared, "but when it went
out Immediately became the other
thing"
He went minutely into every count
charged in the indictment, and de-
clared that all entries had been made
under the headings, "cotton account"
and "time certificate account"
4 admit" he said, "that l left the
books in pretty bad mess, but if
had them as | left them there is no
doubt but that l could pay every dol
lar due depositors.
Throughout his recital Ragsdale
displayed remarkable GOODNESS. He
was given close attention by the jury.
Concerning the woman in the case,
Mrs. Burton, of Hot Springs, Rags
dale said: There never was bigger
lie perpetrated in the world. | never
saw her until she came to my house
in Banks county last summer and
tried to get money"
Put Up No Witnesses.
The defense put up no witnesses,
relying on Ragsdale's statement. He
was defended by c.. w. Fulwood of
this place and Yeomans & Wilkin-
son of Dawson.
Early Sunday morning the jury re-
turned verdict of guilty with rec
ommendation that he be sentenced
as for a misdemeanor. Sentence was
imposed at 6 o'clock Monday morn
ing and was twelve months in the
chaingang and fine of $1,000, the
changing sentence to be served un-
der probation if the fine is paid in
twenty days. A motion for anew

CRISP WOULD CLOSE THE
MAILS TO LIQUOR ADS
Effort to Amend the Postoffce Bill
Fails After a Spirited Debate.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-An amend
ment to the postofice appropriation
bill proposing to make it fraudulent
and illegal to deposit in the United
States mails any postal card, letter,
pamphlet or other publication con-
tanning any advertisement or solici-
tation for the sale of liquor, failed
this week through being ruled out of
order as new business by Speaker
Champ Clark. The OPPOSITION made
the point of order to defeat the meas
urc.
Representative Crisp of Georgia,
formerly parliamentarian of the
house, and probably the best parlia-
mentarian in the house, made an ar
gument in support of the amendment.
Representative Swager Shirley of
Kentucky and others opposed Mr..
Crisp's view of the matter, and prec-
edents were discussed at length.
Finally the speaker ruled that the
amendment was new matter and sub
ject to the point of order.
