Our Christmas

MAYHEM the shades Of evening gather
w And the Christmas time Is here,

MAYHEM the shades Of evening gather
w And the Christmas time Is here,
And you go home from your laboI
To enjoy the Christmas cheer
When the Christmas tree is lighted
And the children gather round,
There Is one thing must be present
II the greatest Joy is found.
There must be inner conscience
Telling you with truthful voice
That you've done something for somsons
That will help that one rejoice
Some poor stranger. widow, orphan,
Someone that you did not owe.
All, the gift need not be costly
To relieve another's woe.
And the greatest gift at Christmas
That a person e'er received
Was to know that through his efforts
Someone's suffering was relieved;
For the Master, on whose birthday
All the Christmas gifts are given,
VIII see that act and send to him
A Christmas gift from heaven.

The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1922-01-24
DAWSON CREAMERY
BEING INSTALLED
WILL BE UP-TO-DATE ENTER
PRISE, WITH CAPACITY OF
100 POUNDS DAILY.

Dawson will soon have another in
dustry-one that is calculated to be
not only an advantage to the business
interests OF the city, but will mean
much to the farmers throughout this
section.
The building at III west Lee street
is being put in readiness by Mr.. ].
K. Murphy for the creamery he in
tends te have in operation in the next
few DAYS. A part of the machinery in
Guiding a large refrigerator and a
power separator, have already arrived,
The plant will have capacity of 100
pounds of butter a day, and will con-
tinue to grow as the supply of cream
and milk increases. SKINNED milk, .af-
ter being separated from the cream,
will be given back if desired
Mr. Murphy has had ten years ex-
perience in the dairy business, and be-
fore coming to Dawson managed for
several wears a large and up-to-date
dairy at Montgomery, Ala.
The opinion of many farmers was
sought by Mr.. Murphy as to the adj
visibility of establishing such an en-
terprise at Dawson, and a popular
note seems to have been sounded. He
feels safe in making the venture, but
realizes that he can do nothing with
out the cooperation of the farmers.
No better field for such an industry
could be found than in Terrell county.
In the past few years cattle have been
brought up from scrub cows to full
blooded animals, and there are hun
dreds of them throughout this section.
The new venture will not only af-
ford a market for the products of the
cow and encourage cattle raising in
this section, but will also enrich the
lands of the county. 1t will mean
raising more grain and feed stuffs, and
it is probable that in few years many
of the fields which have been devoted
to cotton will become green pastures
for cattle.
