According to the story told the of

to him the only source of obtaining
lodging for the night.
One of Dawson's big hearted citi-

the unfortunate couple the price of a
nights lodging. The next morning
they set out in the direction of Do
than, Ala, where, the man said, he
had relatives.

Take the oaks, for instance. The

he wants to know is how to tell the
pin oak from the black oak. He would
like to be able to distinguish an oak

Conditions Justify Honest
Optimism, Banker Declares

an a country like the United States
before passing judgment on business
conditions it is necessary to take in
to consideration what is happening in
widely separated localities and in many
varied industries. When this is done
| am inclined to think that the bust
ness outlook justihes real optimism.
This was the declaration of Mr.. b.
c. Perry, cashier of the Dawson Ma
tional bank, in discussing the probable
trend of business during the coming
winter
1--WE must remember that we can
not make any forecast from the point
OF view of the farmer alone, or from
the point Of view of the worker in the
city Mr. Perry continued.
when business is active in the big
Centers of population, and mills are
operating full time, the buying power
OF the workers in them is increased
and will provide more active market
Tor farm products.
1T takes many different kinds OF
raw material to produce the finished
automobile, so that when the automo-
tive industry is fouriShing the results
will be felt benehcially wherever these
raw materials are produced.
Therefore, in making predictions
OF business conditions for our own
state and community, we must account
what is happening in other states
hundreds of miles away and realize
that what is happening elsewhere has
good deal to do with what may
happen right here at home.
This is no time to throw our hats
In the air and shout that ali our
troubles are over, but neither is it a
time for pessimism. Here are few
facts with should not be overlooked
Full employment is the rule all
over the country. Railroad traffic con-
tnueS enormously heavy. Gram prices
show some Improvement, and cotton
planters are getting good returns from
their crops. Orders for lumber from
Japan have toned up the lumber mark
ct, coal production is now being speed
ed up and cotton and wooden mills are
doing moderately we'll
Altogether, | am inclined to think
that we can be honestly hopeful Ger
talnly, | do not think that a feeling
OF pessimism should be allowed to IN
tertere in our preparations for taking
iluIl advantage of larger opportunities

P0STOFFICE PLANS
HAVE BEEN CHANGED
IMPROVEMENT IN FRONT OF
BUILDING PROPOSED. SUP
ELEMENTARY BID ASKED.

Postmaster. w. B. Cheatham is in
receipt of copy of letter written
by the supervising architect of the
U. S. treasury department to A. M.
Lundberg, of St. Louis, Mo-, who
submitted the lowest bid for the cree
ton of the postoffice building at Daw-
son in which he is asked to submit a
bid to change the original specihca-
tons from wood cornice and ba1lus-
trades to sand or limestone and also
change the steps and entrance from
concrete to granite. 1t is requested
that the new figures be submitted by
wire at once
These changes will make decided
Improvement in the building, both as
to permanence and appearance, and
indicates that the entire appropria-
ton will be spent in its construction.
Although the letter does not so state,
it is also inferred that the contract
will be awarded to A. M. Lundberg,
and that work on the structure will
soon be begun.
