every one knows the vote which

Only one eligible voter remember
ed to register early enough to give
him the legal right to cast a bal

hour today It had not been decided
whether he could legally act as
election Judge and inepecter 1as

Are you all worn out? Feel tired,

constant backache; sharp twinges OF

there's cause for worry and more
cause to give your weakened kidneys
prompt help. Use Doan's Pills-a
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
Dawson folks recommend Doan's
for just such troubles.
Mrs. L. w. Wagnon, n. Stonewall
ST., Dawson, says: Colds settled on
my kidneys, causing attacks of kidney

pains in my back. I felt tired and ner-

OF the backache and other trouble"
Mrs Wagnon is only one of many
Dawson people who have gratefully
endorsed Doan's Pills. If your back
aches-if your kidneys bother you,
don't simply ask for kidney remedy

DAWSON HIGH BEATS
THE AMERICUS BUNCH
TRIMMED THE SUMTER LADS
BY SCORE OF 6 TO l. CUTH-
BERT COMING FRIDAY.

Coach Cox carried his baseball team
TO Americas Friday and had revenge
on the boys of that place. 1t will be
remembered that the Americas lads
nearly exterminated the local loot ball
team last season in the toughest bat
tie in which the gridiron warriors par
tiCipated. 1t was a case of a green
team against an old bunch OF harden
ed men. The Americas team has been
a sore spot in the Terrell boys mem
orv. and it was a determined bunch
which went after the Sumter lads
scalps
The Dawson boys outplayed the
Americas aggregation in every phase
of the game. Littleton started on the
mound for the Dawson team with
Lockett behind the platter. He gave
up only three hits until the fifth
inning. when the batteries for Dawson
were changed to Bell and Tedder
Bell gave up one hit Dudley, pitch
ing for Americas, was hit with COM
parative ease, giving up twelve hits
The locals likewise excelled in field
ing. Only two errors were Chalked up
against our boys to seven for Amerl-
Gus.
The final score was { to /, and the
boys returned home feeling that the
sting OF their foot ball defeat had been
cased
Dawson will play Cuthbert here on
Friday afternoon. The local boys, it
will be remembered, lost a close game
TO the Cuthbert boys at the beginning
OF the season. They were not able to
make a hit off the Cuthbert pitcher.
At that. however, our boys held them
to their closest score in an undefeated
season. The game will begin at $50
o'clock. Admission will be 20 and IS
cents

ton class OF the Dawson public school
was had Monday night Mr.. Bob" is
the title of the play, and it is com
edy in three acts. Although many good
shows have been given by the grad

to make this one surpass all previous
efforts.
The play is laid at the summer home
of Miss Rebecca Luke, maiden lady
with a passionate love for stray cats.
Her niece expects girl friend, whom
she has nicknamed Bob A jealous
cousin thinks Bob is a man and in
love with his fair relative. A lawyer
coming to the house IS mistaken Tor
Bob, as we'll as several other people.
The entire play is a tangle that will
cause a stream 81 laughter from be

really a girl whom he had fallen des-
perately in love with some years ago.

CUT BUTTER PRICES
TO EFFECT SALES
Weeks Market Unsettled-Less
Storing Reported-Much
Lighter Receipts.
By the Associa ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 6.-The tone
Of the butter market during the week
was irregular and unsettled.
Fluctuations from day to day en-
phasized the conditions of the trade.
Speculative buying was almost en-
tirely lacking and regular buyers
were conservative, operating close to
requirements. Street stocks began to
accumulate, especially on the eastern
markets, causing dealers and re-
ceivers to hold their goods less firm
ly, and in some instances to shade
prices in order to effect sales.
In spite of the lighter receipts and
accumulations on dealers floors, the
storage holdings at the four markets
continued to increase, but the into
storage movement was at much
slower rate than for the last month
Less butter was sent to the freezer
during the week than for some time
past and greater efforts were made to
move current arrivals.
What effect the release on Septem-
Der IL of the storage figures for
September will have on the market
is problematical, but from present
indications the surplus has been
fairly we'll discounted.
Closing wholesale prices, 92-score
butter and price range at the markets
follow:
Chicago, 4 higher at 37k: New
York, y lower at 3S1a; Boston,
steady at 80; Philadelphia, steady at

Business Gains and Dawes Plan
Haze already Been Discounted
Recovery in Europe Sure to Be Slo,o.
September Decline Is Con-
sidered Normal.

Inmates that the increase on the aver
age in all commodities in August was
only four-tenths of I per cent. Even
allowing for a IS per cent increase
in breadstuffs, prices stand about
where they did a year ago.
Wheat has dropped between 13 and
IA cents a bushel from it's high in
the last week of July. Cotton during
the last week has completed the do
ing Of all the gain of the past year
The corn crop has made gooG progress
and fears of a shortage, which were
seriously felt up to a fortnight ago,
have been relieved. These changes
have to be considered as partial
subtraction from the newly found
agricultural buying capacity as it
was reckoned until recently.
Passing of Wooden Dividend.
Along with this came the passing
of the American Woolen dividend
following the omission by one OF the
principal New England cotton mills
Street, which had been led astray by
statements that the textile situa-
tion was on the mend, was quite un-
prepared for this shock. The con-
clusion could not be avoided that
these actions would not have been
taken had the heads OF the textile
industry foreseen an early recovery
Decline Is Quite Normal.
A September decline following
continuous advance during July and
August is quite the normal procedure.
In an experience of over rs years
the writer cannot rem ember where
this has not been the sequence OF
events. 1t is true that in old times
before the federal reserve system
came into being the September bear
mark were the result of tight
money due to. the combination of
over-speculation in the Summer and
withdrawal of funds needed in the
crop moving.
The present state of things is al
together different. Nevertheless, even
since the new banking regime, the
chronology has been the same. Prices
have not gone up in September unless
they have been recovering from a mid
Summer depression.
