HUNTS LIONS TO
QUIET HER NERVES
A NEW YORK WOMAN BAGS
MANY BIG BEASTS OF THE
AFRICAN JUNGLE.

LONDON.-If you're woman
troubled with nerves" try hunting the
lion and the gentle rhinoceros for a
cure.
Mrs. Alexander Dalziel, OF New
York, did it She is now in London,
on her way back from perllous trip
through the east African jungle.
Mrs. Dalziels quest for health was
not exactly healthy for the inhabitants
of the jungle, for her bag included
one elephant, two rhinoceros, three
Important and seven lions.
1T was really healthy trip from
first to last" said Mrs. Dalziel.
Big game hunting always appealed
to me and when the doctors said |
had to take trip for my health
something that would take me out OF
myself-there was no doubt in my
mind what that something was to be. ="
Mrs Dalziel had one thrilling en-
counter with a rhinoceros that she is
not likely to forget
1--WE were journeying through the
Jungle tunnels connecting the water
holes when Sir Charles Ross, who
accompanied us, hit rhinoceros as it
lay asleep.
THE wound was not mortal and
the animal disappeared among the
bushes | was some way behind and
thought it would be better to take
cover, but before had gone far |
heard laundering noise and the pain
maddened animal charged down on
me, sending myself and two natives
headlong into the prickly bush by the
force of the impact as it brushed past
us. If we had been right in its path
shudder to think what would have
happened to us"
Another time she shot lion just
as it leaped at her. 1t struck the
ground dead.
Mrs Dalziel thinks that big game
hunting is an ideal sport for women.
Il know of nothing better for
nerves. she said, and now in the flu
ture when | feel that want a rest and
change l shall fly from the noise
and the hustle OF New York to seek
peace and quietness in the African jun
gle among the lions and other inhabi-
tants."

WOMENHS SKIRTS WILL
BE LONGER THIS FALL
BUT ONLY A LITTLE, SAYS AU-
THORITY. ABOUT FOUR
INCHES ENOUGH.
By Fay Stevenson.

How shall the American woman cut
'em-short or long?
Shall they be knee length, Jour inch
es below the knee, eight inches from
the ground or reach discreetly to the
ankles?
This is the question which is making
many a little woman's head twirl round
and round
Paris says they are to be longer. In
fact they're wearing them to the ankle
and longer right now.
In response to hundreds OF letters
/ from women anxious to plan their TALL
Costumes fashion magazines announce
that skirts definitely and unquest1on-
ably are to be longer Eight inches OFT
the ground for street clothes and two
/ or four for the evening is fashion 5
latest edict.
And vet when talked with Willard
j H. Bond, director for Samuel Ball
/ Zalud, New YorkS famous costume de-
signer, about American women wear
ing longer skirts Mr.. Bond smiled
and said:
Eventually, but not now"
| you mean that the American wo-
man has enjoyed her short skirts too
much to go back to the old dust sweep
ing trailer?" | asked.
Il mean that the American woman
certainly has appreciated the short
skirt to its utmost" snilingly pointed
out Mr.. Bond, "and it will take time
for her to get her skirts down to a
discreet length Although Mr.. Zalud
writes from Paris that they are wear
ing them almost to the ground there
! it may take several seasons before
/ America gets them that long.
"Of course, the American woman
will never go back to the dust trailing
period" continued Mr.. Bond, and |
have a slight suspicion that in short
time skirts will be made a matter OF
individuality. There is a certain type OF
woman, the tlapper type, the slender
/ little girlish woman, who looks SPLEEN
didly in a short skirt. She would be
lost if enveloped in long skirts. But
| heaven knows we have seen some far
| from pleasing sights among the wo-
men who are too tall or too fat to in
dulge in knee length skirts.
Since the American woman is in
dependent and knows what best fits
her type, | predict that the time is
coming when every woman will set her
own fashion. The length of her skirt
will be adapted to her figure. She will
glance over the latest styles from
Paris and pick out certain lengths OF
skirts and sleeves which are becoming
and so arrange her own models.
"The fat woman's best charm is her
we'll shaped, dimpled arms, then why
should she wear a long, tight fitting
sleeve simply because fashion demands
it? The thinking woman won't. And
so it will be with high and low necks
and long and short skirts Fashion is
going to be a matter of individuality,
matter of every woman being well
dressed and becomingly dressed to fit
her own individual style"
But what OF the woman who has
her scissors in the air, undecided where
to cut for this coming seasons" l ask
ed
Cut about three or four inches long
er than her summer clothes ana she
will be safe" replied Mr.. Bond. ITS
going to take time to get American
womens skirts back to normally"

THE STATE ASYLUM
DOORS WILL OPEN
GOV. HARDWICK ARRANGES
FOR ADMISSION TO INSTI-
TUITION OF HOPELESS.

Insane persons for whom admission
was sought to the state sanitarium,
but who were barred several weeks
ago after the legislature failed to make
a deficiency appropriation for the up
keep Of the institution, will be taken
into the asylum Governor Hardwick
announced Friday.
The governor further intimated that
steps will be taken to stop the admis-
sion of persons who are only weak
minded or who can be cared for by
attendants in the homes of relatives,
when he declared that out of the 4,800
cases being cared for approximately
700 of them should be sent home.
Governor Hardwick stopped off at
Milledgeville last week while on his
way to Hawkinsville for a conference
with Superintendent L. M. Jones. The
announcement that extreme cases will
be admitted was the result of an agree
ment reached between the two.

Dawson Represented
At Big Boxing Bout
Several Hundred People Witnessed
Event in Park at Cuthbert.

The current issue OF the Cuthbert
Leader contains the following account
of a big sport event which occurred
there a few nights ago:
The second boxing bout between St.
Clair Goolsby, of Cuthbert, and Bat
Ting Tommy, of Albany, was pulled
off Tuesday night in Cuthbert. 1t re-
suited as did the former engagement
between these two-in a knockout for
Battling Tommy-but was longer and
more interesting than the former con-
test, which went only one round. 1t
lasted four rounds, and at times Gools-
by made a pretty fair showing, land
ing several good blows. Battling Tom
my, however, displayed superior skill
and more experience in ring tactics and
had decided advantage. Spectators
differ as to just what blow put the
Cuthbert man down and out
The contest was staged at the ball
Dark and was witnessed by several
hundred persons, a number OF whom
were from Albany, Dawson, Richland
and perhaps other neighboring towns.
Randolph county, of course, furnished
a larger portion of the crowd The
price OF admission was Sl00. 1t is evil
dent that the average male citizen
likes boxing matches.

THE POETS CORNER.

(The following poems were handed
i'll as a daily assignment.)
Il speak no evi1s hear nor see"
A Chinese proverb says,
No unkind word my lips can leave,
For in my heart norfe stays.
Beauty only my eyes doth see,
To all else | am blind,
And in my ears no wrongful words
A lodging place can find.
Hence earth is wonderful to me,
And holds a store of wealth;
1t could be so for ev'ry one
By closely guarding self.

Liberty"
OF all the ships that man has built
To sail the Sea OF Life"
The greatest and most precious one
Was made with pain and strife
IT'S true that strange materials
Were used in building it;
For hardships, grief and suffering
Appear upon the list.
Yet rightly planned, correctly built,
It's stood the ages test,
And now of all mans many ships
The Liberty" is best.

Because.
The peace that comes to me, my dear
When twilight's done and night is near
Comes only, love, because | know
That you it is still loves me so.
The joy | feel at dawn each day,
Just as the sun begins his way,
Is there because, my love, | know
Your heart it is sets mine aglow.

High School Notes
DOTS AND DAsHEs."

One should not be satisfied with
ones self in school work, for it stunts
the mental growth,
Our school colors-crimson and
green! I've heard of people being
green, but seldom crimson.
You've heard of the vibration Of
Caruso's voice breaking glass; Well,
our new cheer leaders intend to break
that record.
Hail the conquering hero reigns, and
when it rains it pours-I should say
geometry does
We study geometry and Cicero,
We work till mornings nigh;
If you could understand, my friend,
You'd know the reason why
We've discussed in school how the
water of ancient Rome would receive
to its breast the innocent victim of
some accused crime-we all agree we'd
rather not be received.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION.

The Athletic Association this year,
composed of both boys and girls, was
organized Tuesday afternoon with the
following officers: Parmalee Watkins,
Hilda Brim, presidents; G. R. Cannon,
Esther Hind, secretary and treasurer;
Henry Wilkinson, Marvin Clay, Madge
Jones and Virginia Hollingsworth
cheer leaders. New colors were also
chosen, crimson and green.
All members of the association, after
they have paid their membership fee
Of two dollars, will be admitted to all
the games played here free.
Dawson High under her new colors,
crimson and green, and backed up by
such large Athletic Association, will
not have to worry about financial con-
ditions and will not have to consult her
treasurer every time she wishes to play
any town that is not within her. i'm
mediate vicinity.
There is no need to say that you do
not wish to join the association be-
cause Dawson might not have such a
good team after all and consequently
will not see good games, because Daw
son will have a team this year worthy
of your last dollar and will give any
high school team close match.

STARVATION IN RUSSIA
CLAIMS MANY PEOPLE

WILKES BARRE, Pa. June Pa
q. y. S.)-The horrors of life In Rus
STA under the bolshevist regime are
more terrible than they have been pic
tured by newspaper correspondents.
Starvation is gripping the young and
old. Women and children are slowly
dying of hunger. Their suffering is
terrible. There is little or no help.
Jews are the particular subjects for
venemous attacks and persecution
Such is the tale coming through
from Russia in a letter to Louis Gold
stein, tailor, of No. 81 South Main
street, this city, from his relatives. The
letter paints picture of the appalling
conditions in Russia. E
. Goldstein is informed of the death
by starvation of his mother, his three
uncIes and an aunt. This is the first
letter from his native home in four
years. 1t was written by two brothers
who live n Rovno. The victims lived
in Nichudnov, village OF the Ukraine.
A year ago it fell into the hands of the
bolshevists The victims sold their
home for 1900 ruhles and started for
RovnO in the hope of getting passage
to America. The distance between
Nichudnov and Rovno is . miles, and
it required almost two months fol
them to make the journey walking
most of the way.
They set out in the winter and had
to contend with the severe February
weather. They had secured passports,
but when they reached Royno they
were told mistake had been made
end another GOldstein family
had been meant. A telegram was sent
to Louis Goldstein, in this city, and he
sent money through relief agent, but
it came too late. The letter just re-
ceived follows:
Mother died three days after re-
ceiving your money. 1t was too late;
she died Of starvation. She had not
eaten in eight days, and her system
was dried out. In her dying moments
she moaned that we should pour oil
down her throat. as she was being
burned alive. She was a shriyeled
form when she died.
Money without Value.
''With the money you sent us we
were able to give her a proper funeral
and we were envied by others, because
it is something rare nowadays, Had
she been buried in Nichudnov she
would have been inferred in rags, as
there even the living wear only rags.
Don't fret that mother died. she Is
