kIWANIANS WILL HAVE
A BOOSTERS MEETING
ALL OF DAWSON IS INVITED
TO BE AT CLUB HOUSE ON
THURSDAY NIGHT.

At the last meeting of the Kiwanis
club it was decided to have boosters
meeting on next Thursday night at
the Woman's club house at $50
o'clock. The following Kiwanians
were appointed special committee to
look after arrangements and see that
preparations for a successful meeting
were carried out: F. M. McNulty,
chairman; Ed Stevens and John A.
Shields.
This meeting is not to be restricted
to Kiwanisns. In fact, every member
is urged to take with him his wife or
sweetheart or friend A special pro-
gram will be arranged for the occa-
sion and a pleasant time is in store
for all.
The Kiwanis club is the main spring
of Dawson. Without the functioning
of this body, with no other civic or
ganization here, the town would be
like a ship without a rudder. 1t IS
your organization, and the main pur-
pose of this meeting is to boost Daw-
son, boost the Kiwanis club and make
plans for the welfare and progress OF
the city.
Be sure to go out next Thursday
night.

COTTON PLANTERS WILL.
MEET IN NEW ORLEANS
Governor From Each Cotton State
Will Be Present.

A meeting which promises to be OF
great importance, not only to the
farmers in Terrell county but through
out the cotton belt, is the gathering
of the farmers in New Orleans on DC
tober 18th and 10Th Cotton planters
throughout the entire south will be
present and it is estimated that ire
mendous number will be present.
The purpose of the meeting is to
discuss and decide upon some definite
means of successfully fighting the boil
weevi The uses of poison and the
various methods of employing it are
to be discussed at length.
The governors of the states Of Geor-
gia, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and
other cotton states will be present and
tell of conditions in their respective
states and the methods employed in
the fight to make cotton. President
Coolidge is also expected to be at the
meeting.
This gathering of the southern cot
ton planters bids no good thing for the
boil weevil, and no doubt each farmer
who attends the meeting will derive
much good from it.

DAWSON HIGH WILL
PLAY ALBANY FRIDAY
FOOTBALL SQUAD WORKING
HARD AND EXPECTS TO
MAKE GOOD SHOWING.

The shrili sound of the referees
whistle will mark the beginning of a
new era in the life of the Dawson high
school when the football squad plays
their first game in Albany on next
Friday. The team has been running
signals, punting and doing other nee
essary training in preparation for this
game. Realizing that the Albany
team is older and more experienced
has spurred the local boys on. All
are determined to give their best
Just who Coach Cox will start off
the game with is not certain, but it is
understood that the heavier men are
to be given preference. There are
some light men who are fast, = and
should be given chance to see what
they can do. No doubt they will be
given this chance Friday.
After. the game in Albany the fol-
lowing Friday will see the team lined
up in battle array before the strong
Doerun eleven here at Dawson in
Baldwin park The local team will
then be better fitted to offer battle
than at Albany Friday, and no doubt
a large crowd will be on hand to see
the first football game ever staged in
Dawson.
Following the game with Doerun
the Shellman high will bring their
bunch of husky football tossers here
for a mixup with the local squad.
From all reports Shellman has very
strong team this season.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The peach tree borer literally de-
stroys millions OF dollars worth Of
peach trees in the country each year.
The old methods of moundng and
digging out the borers was helpful
but the tree was often damaged and
the method tedious and slow. The
State College Of Agriculture recon-
mends that an application of paradi-
chlorobenzene in the right way at the
right time is both more effective and
less damaging to the tree. The appli-
cation should be made for south Geor-
gia from October 10 to 20. Three
quarters OF an ounce is a dose for 3
to 4 year-old trees, while an ounce is
required for older trees.
The surface around trees should be
freed of all grass, trash or stones and
the crust slightly broken. Apply in a
circle around the tree exactly IL
inches from the body of the tree in an
even band ~ inches wide. Cover this
with soil and firm down with back
OF shovel. On exactly the 18th day
from the day Of application all the
soil containing the paradichloroben-
zene should be removed from near the
tree and replaced by other soil not
containing this acid.
The cost is only a few cents per
tree and is sold by spray material
dealers. Explicit directions for apply
ing is found in the agricultural col
lege bulletin.

morning, and he wants to thank them
for holding off until the time arrived,

THREE BALES OF COTTON
ON TWO AND A HALF ACRES
Mr.. McNulty Believes 1t Mistake
To Poison at Night

From two and half acres on the
outskirts Of the city Mr.. F. NJ. Nc
Nulty has gathered nearly three bales
of cotton despite the unfavorable
weather which prevailed throughout
the growing season.
Mr.. McNulty attributes his success
largely to the fact that he applied
poison early in the morning instead OF
at night as was the practice OF most
farmers who used it. 1t is his opinion
that busting with arsenate at night.
when the blooms are all closed, is a
waste of time and money, and that to
be effective it should be applied early
in the morning when the poison will
fall in the open blossoms, which the
weevils inhabit

 It was expected that the prop erty was to have been developed during the past season, supplies having been hauled for that pur pose during the past winter, but unforeseen difficulties were en COuntered that necessitated the partners allowing the ground to stand idle.
 There is to be a great deal of activity during the coming sum mer, however, as the partners interested outside capitalists who Intend to exploit the ground to the greatest extent.
 Locally, the partners property is considered excellent, and ac cording to many who have been on the claims, there is no doubt but what a first class mine will be developed.

CONCERNING JAZZ

Any objection to jazz should be
made on a purely cultural and ar
tistic basis. We cannot agree with
the Sabbath Committee of the
Southern Presbyterian church that
it is a menace to civilization and
threatens the disintegration of
American homes. Here is what the
committee says. "The morale of
the average American is in a state
Of jazz. With jazz music, jazz
a~musements, jazz reading, jazz con-
%versation, jazz ornaments, jazz
dress, how can sanity, sobriety and
dependability be expected in the
work of the world, when the homes
keep pouring such poisoned streams
into it."
A sufficient answer seems to be
that the work of the world never
has in all history been done as eff
ficiency as o in every depart
ment of human endeavor. The arts,
the sciences, religion itself, and in
deed morality, have made greater
strides in the last generation than
in any century preceding it. Cities
are cleaner, society is cleaner and
even Main Street more jealous of
its reputation than ever before
within the memory Of men.
We fear our Southern Presbyte-
rian friends have mistaken contrast
for expansion. Remote places have
been brought near together by wire,
by radio and by an increasing dis
position to travel.
The world is simply wiser, not
worse, than it was.

some building work to go on with,
thus mitigating the anticipated evils
of unemployment.
What reason is there to suppose
that work which is abandoned now
because it costs too much will be
undertaken later on if it still costs
too much? That is a purely eco
nomic problem. Indeed, it is rea-
sonable to suppose that men who
cannot finance costly construction
in flush times will be unable or
unwilling to finance it in famine
times.
1t requires no great skill to grasp
something that is within reach. The
future is beyond reach, and the at
tempt to bind it to the channels of
the present is likely to prove dis
astrous to the unions. A little
knowledge of economics would do
no harm in the building trades.

WOOD is
SHOCKED

Gen. Leonard Wood is stirred
with emotion by the fact that the
Filipinos whom he austerely shep-
herded are ~resorting to propaganda
in asking national self-determina-
tioA.
ID would seem as II the Filipinos
had as good a right to do this as 9s
per cent of all the nations who are
setting the example. In particular,
it does them and us no harm, and
may do good, when they call on the
United States to keep in faithful
performance all promises, expressed
or implied, made to them in the
name of the nation.
However that may be, General
Wood caught a Tartar when he
wrote that members of congress and
Others prominent in Washington
"reesived payment from the Philip.
pine Independence commission in
espousing the cause of independ.
ence for the islands," the amount
paid in some cases reaching -four
figures"
That useful gadfly Of political
haclu, Representative Frear of Wis
%consin, points out that such general
charges libel indiscriminately nine
ty-six senators and 435 representa-
tives, and demands that General
Wood exonerate the innocent by
naming the guilty. The accused
commission offers from Manila to
open its book for the purpose.
The demand is just. 1t should be
possible for a public man to advo-
cate that the United States shall
keep its word without his being sus-
pectod of taking brides. At any
rata. Mr.. Frear pleasantly init
mates, the charge comes with i'll
grace from n mar whose presiden-
tial aspirations a senate committee
'found, according to recollection,
that upward of 100000 had been
raised to put over"
Mr.. Frear is right. Unless Gen
eral Wood names names and offers
proofs, apologies are due.
