DR.. FISHER SPOKE
IN DAWSON SUNDAY
HIS ADDRESS WAS ON THE
SUBJECT OF CHRISTIAN
EDUCATION.

Rev. Reese Griffin at the morning
service at the Methodist church Sun
day made ringing appeal to the 10y
atty of the members in the great
movement of Christian education that
the higher institutions of learning in
southern Methodism may be better
equipped for the great task OF train
ing leaders, who shall have clear Wis
ion and ability to meet the great is
sues in national life. The forceful mes
sage was based on the text from John
STA.
In place of Judge Covington, of
Mou1trie, who was expected but who
was unable to get here, DR.. Guyton
Fisher. pastor of the First Methodist
church in Americas, spoke at three
O'Clock along the line of Christian ed
ucation as of paramount importance.
DIR. Fisher is always interesting and
his Illuminating thoughts on the sub
iect of Christian training carried great
weight. His visit to Dawson was very
much appreciated, but it was matter
of regret that owing to so many other
services during the day the crowd
was rather small.
Sunday School Day" exercises were
enjoyed by a large congregation at
the evening hour. The program of
songs and readings, was under the di-
rection of Mrs. R. R. Jones and Mrs
Steve Kenyon. The young performers
showed careful training and it was a
highly pleased audience. A collection
was taken, the proceeds to be applied
to extending the work of the Sunday
school

SEARCH FOR PROPERTY
NOT GIVEN IN.

The board of county tax equalizers,
composed of T. B. Raines, ]. H.
Pritchard and c. c. Brim, met this
morning preliminary to reviewing
state and county tax returns.
There will probably be more inter
est in the matter of taxation this year
than before in some time. Last year
it will be recalled, the tax equalization
law was tested out in the courts. This
litigation intended to ascertain the ex-
act powers of the state. tax commits
sioner, was of statewide interest 1t
is generally regarded as certain that
the legislature this summer will de-
vote considerable time and thought to
the states tax law.
In a number of counties, including
Terrell, the demand for increased as
sessments by the state tax commits
sioner were arbitrated.

man, Randolph, Schley, Stewart, Tai

thus relieve the situation which is
complained OF.
A movement was begun several
years ago by outside influences to
have Terrell county transferred from
the northern to the southern federal
judicial circuit but the people here pro-
tested so generally and so vigorously
that it was abandoned. Whether. there
will be objection at this time is not
known.
