WATCH NIGHT PARTY HELD
BY BOTH EPWORTH LEAGUES
Provisions and Clothing Sent to Meth
odist Orphanage at Macon.

On Monday night, December 81,
the annex Of the Methodist church
was the scene OF jolly affair. The
senior Epworth League, with the as
sistance OF the juniors, had collected
and contributed food and clothing to
send to the orphanage at Macon. Sin
cere appreciation and gratitude is ex-
tended to those merchants who aided.
The Leaguers met at $50 p. m. for
a watch night party After a short
devotional led by Mr.. Louis Petty the
barrel of provisions was packed,
The fun started with drawing con
test, followed by a talking contest in
which Messrs. Parmelee Watkins and
Charles Wall, and Misses Frances
CLAW and Louise Bridges participated.
The Judges awarded the prize to
Charles. Other games were then
played. Delicious cocoa and crackers
were served, and the Leaguers spent
the remainder OF the time singing re-
ligious songs All unanimously de
clared the occasion to be one of the
most enjoyable socials ever held, at
tributing its success chiefly to the
| faithful efforts of Mrs. c. A. Harris.

CRIMINAL DOCKET FOR
CITY COURT IS LIGHT
Civil List Contains Sixty-One Gases
Thirty-One Are New.

What is believed to be the lightest
criminal docket ever to be tried in the
January term of the city court in the
history of Terrell county, will be tried
when court convenes January IA. Ac-
cording to present indications it is not
believed that the docket will contain
more than FIVE cases.
Sixty-seven civil cases have been
filed though all are not yet ready TOR
trial. OF this number 81 are new
cases. Judge NJ. c. Edwards will pre-
side during the session.
Summons for jury service have been
sent by Sheriff Woods to 50 citizens
of the county.
County officials, commenting upon
the smallness of the criminal docket,
gave the sanity of the Christmas cele-
bration held in Dawson and Terrell
county as the cause. The scarcity OF
whisky. among other things, played an
important part in limiting the number
OF offenders.

WOMAN'S CLUB HAS
INTERESTING MEETING
PROGRAM WAS PRESENTED
UNDER THE DIRECTION
OF MRS. DISMUKE.

The Woman's club opened it's jan
uary meeting with community singing
led by Miss Nellie Lang. The
three selections were Aud Ang Syne,
Sweet and Low" and Ben Bolt. y
Mrs. Jack McNulty gave much pleas
ure to the club in her two numbers,
Morning" and BELLS of Youth, y
which were charmingly sung.
After a short business session the
meeting was taken in charge by Mrs.
w. H. Dismuke, chairman of the COM
mittee in Applied Education"
The first paper was read by Miss
Louise McNulty. Selection from
Outdoor America" formed the basis
of her discussion which had as its
subject Conservation OF our National
Resources" The discussion was very
convincing. The Woman's club stands
unrcserved1y for conservation as one
of the highest forms OF tavtice patriot
ism, and its educative work along this
line is noteworthy, but to be effective
it must be unremitting and intensive.
Mrs. Gurr followed Miss McNulty
with a forceful talk on Applied Edu-
cation Mrs. Gurr touched upon
several divisions OF her subject, but
dwelt chiefly upon those phases that
concern the economic situation and
development and possibilities OF the
women and girls OF the country. As
she always is, Mrs. Gurr was practical
and concrete in her discussion, and
her talk was very stimulating &c
thought and interest
Miss Minnie Hatcher's vocal sole
was a delightful conclusion to an in
teresting program. A social half hour

COMB SAGE TEA
INTO GRAY HAIR
Darkens Beautifully and Restores
It's Natural Color and
Lustre At Once

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and lux
uriant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
Dhur recipe at home, though, is trouble
some. An easier way is to get the
ready-to-use preparation improved by
the addition of other ingredients a
large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores,
known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" thus avoiding a lot of
muSs.
While gray, faded hair is not sinful,
we all desire to retain our youthful ap-
pearance and attractiveness. By dark
ening your hair with AVyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, be-
cause it does it so naturally, so evenly
You Just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning all gray hairs have
disappeared. After another application
or two your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you
appear years younger.

WEATHER HERE WAS
COOLEST IN YEARS
TEMPERATURE OF ABOUT
DEGREES ABOVE ZERO HAD.
BOIL WEEVIL CURBED.

With-many cities in the state re-
porting the coolest weather in many
years, Dawson came in for it's full
share of the cold-weather damage.
Many bursted radiators, cylinder heads
and other auto parts were reported by
garage men while plumbers are ex-
periencing the busiest time of the year.
Bursted pipes have caused inconven-
fence in many residences and in some
instances have played havoc when eX-
plosions resulted from building fires
in kitchen ranges where the attached
water-heaters were clogged with ice,
Unofficial weather prognosticators
placed the lowest point of the mer-
cury's descent at only few degrees
above zero. Macon, approximately
100 miles north reported a temperature
of seven and four-tenths above zero,
the coolest weather since the organi-
cation of the weather bureau office
there, Is years ago. Americas report
ed 8 degrees above zero.
The lowest point was reached short
ly after o'clock Sunday morning
with the highest point, about % de
grees following between 4 and o.
clock Sunday afternoon.
The extreme weather caused many
! OF the trains passing through Dawson
to be delayed No accidents, how
ever, were reported on either the Cen
trail or the Seaboard railroads.
Three fires, the largest number oc-
curing on any one day since the win
ter began, were eXtingulshed before
serious damage resulted.
That the cold wave, through curbing
effect upon the boil weevil, will place
millions of dollars in the pockets Of
Georgia farmers, is the opinion adj
vanced by many familiar with farming
conditions in Terrell county. Damage
however, was done to garden vege-
tables throughout the county
