Sumptuous Birthday Dinner

The birthday anniversary OF Mrs.
7. r. Bridges was most happily Cele-
brated on Tuesday, her husband and
sisters planning all the delightful de-

amazed to find all the family connec-
ton making themselves very much at
home and the aroma of good things
cooking greeted her The dining room
wore an especially festive air, the cen
trail decoration of the beautifully ap-
pointed table being a large snow
white birthday cake holding burning
tapers. A large turkey at one side and
baked home cured ham at the other
were fanked by cranberries, salad and
everything else to tempt the appetite:
After spending some time around
the hosDitable board the company re-
haired to the parlor, where another
surprise awaited Mrs. Bridges-an ar
raw of beautiful and useful birthday
gifts-another expression OF the love
in which she is held by each member
of her large family connection, she
being one of the daughters OF Mr.: ana
Mrs. F. M. Jennings. Mrs. Bridges
is Young enough to look forward to
MANY more birthdays, and her many
friends unite in the wish that each
succeeding anniversary may be hap
pier than the last.

COL. SMITH WAS HEARD
BY A LARGE AUDIENCE
REPRESENTATIVE of Anti-Saloon League
Made Strong Address Sunday Night.


Made Strong Address Sunday Night.
One of the largest audiences ever
,ssembled in Dawson was that at the
Baptist church Sunday evening to
hear Col. Dan Morgan Smith, repre-
senting the Anti-Saloon League.
Preceding the address a special mu-
sical program, with full choir under
tbe direction OF Mr.. Floyd Jennings,
was greatly enjoyed, the selections so
we'll rendered by male quartette be
inc especially appreciated. All the min
i,fers OF the city were seated on the
rostrum. Rev. George Grille led in the
invocation. The appropriate scripture
lesson was the hundred and twenty
foprth Psalm. read by Rev Reese
Griffin. Prayer by Elder r. H. Jen-
nings followed. In fitting words the
pastor, Rev. S. F. Lowe, introduced
the speaker.
1t is impossible to crowd into the
limited space allotted even a synopsis
Of the masterful address that would
give any idea Of its force and brill
lance. He held the closest attention
of his audience for more than an hour
and his arguments were clear and con
vincing, and his striking and original
style OF driving home the vital truths
presented made a strong impression.
This fearless leader OF the Battalion
OF Death" on the battle fields OF France
is waging just as relentless a war on
the American Hun the brewers and
bootleggers. Mr.. Smith gave inside
facts showing the deep laid plans to
weaken the eighteenth amendment and
warned the people to be awake to the
danger.

GREEKS HOLD OWN FUTURE

A new twist to the situation IN Greece
following the death Of King Alexander.
has been given by the refusal OF Aiexan-
der's brother, Prince Paul. to accept the
throne unless the Greek people first
hold an election and reject the claims Of
his father, their former king. Constan-
tine, who sided with Germany in the
war, was driven from his throne but has
never abdicated nor admitted that he
was no longer the king Of Greece.
It is understood that such a plebisc!te
will be held. but It Is improbable that
the majority Of Greeks will vote for tho
return Of Constantine. The former King
was governed during the war by the
fact that his wife was the sister of the
Kaiser, instead Of by the interests OF
Greece Premier Nenizelos. supported
BY public opinion. aligned Greece with
the allied cause and when the war was
over Greece was generously rewarded
with more territory and increased pres
tige.
The vote will not be directly for the
return or rejection Of Constantinople.
but Venilelos has given notice TO the
people that II the party which favors
that course Is successful in tho coming
election, he will wash his hands of
Greece forever. Undoubtedly the estab-
lishmeht Of a republic with Venizelos or
some other patriotic Greek as it's head
would be best for the HellenrIc nation.

THE NEW LEAGUE NEGoTIA'
TONS

,tWhue Il Is not to be expected that
S-the making OF changes in the covenant
NJ the league OF nations will be mere
Tformality, there Is no cause for appre-
..shsnsion in the statement that European
diplomats are not disposed to accept
reservations that violate the underlying
principles OF the covenant.
Tho principal change that America
wants Is the elimination Of Article X.
England, France and Italy are already
on record as willing TO agree to this.
II Will be recalled that Leon Bourgeois.
leading Frenchmau, who Is president OF
the league OF nations. said in an Inter-
view recently that Europe did not re-
gard Article Y as an essential part OF
the covenant. Earl Grey, after visiting
this country at the time the senate was
trying to get Mr.. Wilson to agree to
reservations, wrote O letter to the Lon
don Times In which he said that tho
American people would never accept
Article x, and his attitude was sympa-
thetic.
There will OF course be great deal
OF diplomatic jockeying over the league
changes that America wants. European
nations will take advantage OF the OPP
..portunity to try TO get something from
America In return. For instance, Eng
land may make her consent dependent
upon the outcome Of the Panama canal
tolls matter. In the end, however. tho
league will be 80 framed as to be salts
factory, without the surrender Of any
vital American interest. The desire Of
the rest Of tho world to have America
participate viii be q big factor.

- After declaring that post mortems'

unworthy appeals to class and racial
prejudices. and to bring to bear upon
our serious problems that dispassionate

This Is fortunate for the country. There
