TAXPAYERS: Do You Want improvements?

That amount of new sewer with what
has been completed to date, will give the
village a system adequate for it's present
needs. Additions can be made as the need
arises, block or two at time, and finan
ced out of the general fund.
OLD SYSTEM is NOW
A SOURCE OF MUCH EXPENSE.
The old system is entirely inadequate.
Each year it's upkeep costs more until II
has become considerable item in the an
nual budget It would be the economical
measure to build as much new sewer row
as can be done, to stop an expense for sew
er relief which is only temporary-money
thrown away in repairing the old system.
The POKPOSE OF
THIS STATEMENT.
The Board of Public Works prepares
this statement solely for the information
of the electors at the coming special cleo
ton, to be held May 9th. They have no
desire to influence the voters either for
or against.
THE PROPOSITION is UP TO
THE TAXPAYERS.
The issue is squarely up to those who
cast their ballots. If you, as taxpayer,
want improvements which the sewer
is one of primary impertance-then cast
your vote and see that your neighbors
cast their votes for the additional levy of
one per cent.
If you do not believe the best interests
of the village will be served by the propos
ed increase, then it is up to you to vote
against it. Talk it over with your neigh
bors. Get them out to express their oplrl-
ions by the ballot so that the undersigned
may be guided by the result.
Signed:

score OF 9 to 6.
1t was practically dark when the
ball was carried over for the touch
down, but there remained four min
utes to be played These few minutes
found the Dawson boys doing the
only logical thing of stalling for time
and the Cordele boys playing their
hardest to erase the score in the last
few minutes. But the game ended
with the ball in Cordele's possession
about the center of the field
Cordele is Dawson's keneest rival
and no harder game has been fought
or probably will be fought by the
Dawson boys than the one Friday af-
ternoon. Cordele presented the strong
est team which Dawson had run up
against, and the keen rivalry was on
ly offset by the good craftsmanship
shown by both sides. The Cordele
team are good winners and good los
ers, and they fought good fight and
played clean.
Jones and Bridges were the stars Of
the afternoon, doing practically all of
the gaining, but Tedder at end is due
a laurel wreath for the manner in
which he completed several forward
passes, netting long gains for Daw-
son. The whole team played well,

BADLY INJURED NEGRO
WOMAN LEFT IN ROAD
DOWN BY AUTOMO-
BILE. OCCUPANT MADE NO
EFFORT TO RENDER AID.

Sarah Johnson, an aged negro wo-
man, was found on the Dawson and
Sasser highway Friday morning in a
pitiful condition after having been run
down by an automobile.
Mr. Ed Brim was returning from
Sasser when he found the woman, and
placed her in his car and brought her
to Dawson for medical attention. A
severe cash under the right eye and
huge knot on her forehead just above
the wounded eye were the results OF
the accident, if it could be called such.
There were also minor bruises about
her face and mouth.
1t appears that the old woman had
been gathering hickory nuts when an
automobile containing a number OF
white tourists going in the direction
of Florida came down the road, evil
IDENTIFY at great speed. Being almost
deaf she did not hear the car. The
driver, it appears, made an effort to
miss the old woman, running the car
nearly into a ditch, but did not stop
to see how badly the victim was in
jured or to render aid.
The woman was identified by Mr..
Charles Wall as either the mother or
grandmother of one of his tenants.
Her condition is not as serious as it
was at first believed to be, but she
has suffered considerably.
A large automobile loaded with
tourists went through Sasser at a
reckless speed few minutes prior to
the finding Of the old woman in the
road, and there is little doubt that
their car was the one that injured her.

Washington, May 26.-The tax
reduction bill was put up to Presi-
dent Coolidge for final enactment
into law today by congress.
Like the senate, the house by an
Overwhelming majority approved the
conference compromise on the main
provisions. The vote was 376 to 8.
An early decision by the Presi-
dent was forecast by those close to
him on the basis Of his insistent de-
mands that congress hasten action
on tax reduction.
Mr. Coolidge had asked congress
for the bill proposed by Secretary
Mellon, turned down almost entirely
in the framing of the pending meas
ure but has let 1t be known he will
consider the latter on its merits as
compared with the present law. In
this connection Secretary Mellon in
dlcated today he considered the bill
on the whole an improvement over
the present law.
Within a few minutes after the
measure had reached the White
House 1t was sent to the treasury
secretary for study. Mr.. Mellon ex-
pected to have a report containing
his analysis OF the bill in the hands
OF the President late tomorrow or
