SIMPLICITY MARKED
DORSEY INAUGURAL
ONLY LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
ACCOMPANIED NEW EXECU-
TIVE TO THE CAPITOL.

Simplicity that Thomas Jefferson
himself might have ordered marked
the Inauguration of Hugh M. Dorsey
as governor of Georgia in the hall
of the house of representatives at
noon Saturday.
It was at the instance of Mr.. Dor
sey himself that all pomp and cir
cumstance was kept out of the pro-
gram.
The only escort Mr.. Dorsey had
from the Kimball House to the cap
itol were the five members of leg
islative committee: Senator Walter
P. Andrews, of Atlanta; Senator H.
II, Elders, of Tattnall county; repre-
sentatives C. R. McCrory, of SchIey,
w. T. Burkhalter, of Tattnall, and
S. A. Scott, of Johnson.
Mr.. DorSey's immediate family &C.
companied him from the hotel and
occupied seats in the hall of the
house Immediately in front of the
stand from which the inaugural ad-
dress was delivered.
There were no military features
to any part of the days ceremony.
The governor-lect entered with
Governor Harris, the retiring execu-
tive, and the oath of Office was ad-
ministered by Chief Justice Fish of
the supreme court,
Former Dawson Pastor Prayed.
The ceremonies we're opened with
an invocation by Rev. ]. H. Scruggs,
of Hawkinsville, "a, former pastor of
the Dawson Methodist church. That
Rev. Mr.. Scruggs should have been
selected for this office is most APP
propriate, in view of the fact that he
performed the! marriage ceremony
for Mr.. and Mrs. Dorsey just six
years ago tomorrow, christened their
first child, Hugh NJ. Dorsey, Jr., and
christened their youngest son Satur-
day.
The hall of the house of repre-
sentatives probably was never the
scene of more enthusiastic inaugu-
ration nor of a simpler one.
Packing the gallery, jamming the
doors and aisles of the hall, banked
in the corridors outside the hall were
hundreds of men and women who had
come to shout Hugh" and who did
it until they were hoarse.
The affair was businesslike from
start to finish.
One of the heartiest bits of ap-
pleause came when the address was
completed and when little Mary Lou
Use Rogers, daughter of W. w. Rog-
ers, of Atlanta, in lace dress and
many ribbons, was lifted by Colonel
John Boifeuillet to the speakers
stand, from which she handed the
new governor a large bouquet of
flowers.
One of the most thunderous bursts
of applause and shouting came when
Senator Olive introduced the new
governor to the crowd. The senator
said:
"Here is the man who beyond all
peradventure of doubt is your choice

unless the materials of which they
are made become much more neces-
sary to the welfare of the country.
President Wilson's stand against
"bone-dry" prohibition, conveyed to
congress this afternoon, forced the
wet" and dry" issue in the senate
close to a showdown, and, according
to leaders, has clinched the exemption
of beer and light wine manufacture
from the drastic "dry" provision
adopted by the house. Prediction was
made that the question might be
brought to a vote before adjournment
tomorrow night.

for governor. He possesses the four
essentials that go to, make great ex-
ecutive-ability, honesty. energy and
courage. In the name of the general
assembly of Georgia, as it's chief pre-
siding officer, I promise you, Cover
nor Dorsey, it's hearty cooperation. "
In his address Governor Dorsey
urged that the state tax equalization
law be not repealed, but strengthen
ed, the adoption of the budget sys-
tenn of appropriations, that the gen.
eral assembly be relieved of local
legislation, which consumes so much
of the time, that steps be taken to
furnish free school books; recon-
mends the seating of the governor in
January following his election, and,
in the interest of this reform, ex-
presses his willingness that his own
term should be shortened by the six
months from June to January; rec
mends that the legislature take steps
to put an end to the demonstrations
al and illegal practicesin the states
fiscal affairs of applying taxes of one
year to the payment of appropria-
lions of a previous year; to aid in
correcting the practice of the general
assembly in appropriating more
funds than are available; recon-

priations committee and the ways

College. Well Known Here.

On Wednesday evening at the
Baptist church, Habakkuk 1:5 was
the basis of an interesting study of
the war situation. Faith in God, in
his care over our past with trust
and hope for the future was the
leading thought in the very helpful
message so earnestly delivered by

ever dark it may be here, we know
it is always light at the throne" was
an impressive prayer utterance. DR..

cess. DR.. Christie is an interesting
speaker on any subject, and his many
Dawson friends are always glad to

Not What He Wanted

Last Friday Mr.. c. L. Gulledge
saw a rather dilapidated car of a
popular make in the City Ga
gage for repairs. He knew that
Mr.. S. H. Lanev had been con-
sldering the purchase of one OF
the new cars of this same make,
When he saw MIR. Laney drive
up in front of the store he told
him that demonstration car OF
the make he wanted was at the
garage. Mr.. Laney said, Hold
my horse. hold my horse" and
made rapid strides for the garage.
Gulledge followed him and
sneaked in after Mr.. Laney had
looked around a little. Gulledpe
then pointed it out to him, and
Uncle Steve said, "G-!??-!!!??-
your-?!!!- -!!soul."

High school here, it being his

he somewhat resembles a six

are not more than two inches
thick and no one would call him
especially good looking. His
tongue is in good working order,
however, and his delight is TO
use expressions that tickle his
hearers. He is polite and knows
his place, SO that there is no of
tense when he tries to be funny.
All IN all he is quaint old dark
ey OF the old school, whose pass

pledge cards were carried TO the

had gone. They were lett with

they be delivered upon MIR.

he supposed they brought the

and see that they were all right
before they were given to Mr..
