Natural Color, Gloss and
AttractiVeness

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray. streaked and faded hair beauti-
fully dark and luXuriant. Just lew
applications will prove revelation II
YOUR hair is fading, streaked or gray.
Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur rec

An easier way is to get bottle OF
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
at any drug store all ready for use.
This IS the old-time recipe improved by
the addition OF other ingredients;
While wispy, gray, faded hail. is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractivene;ss.
By darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because 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, and, after an
other application or two, your hair DC.

SCHOOL WEDDING
WAS BIG SURPRISE
MISS THEODOSIA HOLLINGS-
WORTH AND ]. w. DUSKIN
MARRY IN S. CAROLINA.

Another tally was scored on Satur-
day, January 3rd, against the Georgia
marriage law, it became known here
Wednesday, when the secret marriage
of Miss Theodosia Hollingsworth, of
Dawson, and MIR John w. Dusllin,
OF Montgomery Ala. at Abbeville,
s. c., was repealed The couple were
married by Rev. F. O. Lamereaux at
his home.
Miss Hollingsworth, striking
blonde, was an eighteen-year-old
sophomore at Agnes Scott, and Mr.
Duskin. of the same age, was enrolled
in the freshman class at Georgia Tech.
Their romance began when Mr. Dus-
kin visited relatives in Dawson, and
on Saturday they decided to be mar
ried but we're confronted by the ne
cessity of posting a marriage license
application for five days in Georgia
A quick trip to Abbeville solved
that difficulty, and the happy pair re-
turned to Atlanta Sunday morning
and Mrs. Duskin was back at her
studies Monday and took a mid-year
examination Tuesday. Inquiring news
paper lIlCu got WIFI Oh tllc tiOptlllClil
and started inquiries which resulted in
the bride confessing to Dir. J. r. Nc
Gain, president OF Agnes Scott, that
she had been secretly married with
the result that Wednesday morning
Mr. Edgar w, Hollingsworth, her
iather, and Mrs. J. M. Griggs, her
grandmother, and Mr.. Duskin, father
OF the young groom, arrived in At
lanta. A family reunion resulted, and
the couple received the parental bless
ings. They left for Montgomery on
Wednesday night, and came from
there to Dawson Saturday to spend
several days before making their home
in Florida.
Mrs. Duskin is a nd-daughter
Of the late ]. M. Griggs, for many
years congressman from the Second
district, and is one OF the most popu-
lar members OF the younger social set
The groom is a grandson of Judge j.
W. Peddy, OF Dawson, and on fire.
quent visits here made many friends
1t was the intention of the young
couple to keep their marriage secret
until the close OF school, and no doubt
would have succeeded had it not been
for a newspaper correspondent i'll Abb
beyille who made a breezy item about
the wedding in a humorous write-up
OF Georgias hve-day marriage law.

THE MERCER GLEE CLUB
HAS BOOKED A DATE HERE
Will Be in Dawson Jan. 31st. Georgia
Glee Club to Come in March.

A contract has been signed between
the Mercer University Glee club and
the Palace theater for a performance
by the club in Dawson on Saturday
night, January 31st.
The Mercer Glee club appeared here
two years ago and gave a splendid
performance. Since that time the club
has made rapid strides and now ranks
with professional amusement enter
prises
The Mercerian singers carry with
them a band and several complete
changes of fine scenery. Their per
Torrance is in the nature of min
strel, and there is a street parade in
the afternoon and concert i'll front
of the theater at night.
The University OF Georgia Glee
club will play in Dawson the early
part of March. The Georgia boys have
never appeared here, and their coming
is anticipated with lively interest. Let
tiers from Lucius Lamar, Dawson boy
who is manager of the club, state that
nearly one hundred appeared for a
tryout when the personnel OF the
club was selected. 1t is composed Of
forty young men.
The people of Dawson always turn
out in large numbers when the col
lege glee clubs have dates here, and
it is not likely that anything less than
full houses will greet the musicians
OF the two Georgia schools when they
make their respective visits.

BE ENLARGED. NEW MAN
AGER HAS ARRIVED.

Mr.. c. L. Dickson, OF Atlanta, who
has been in charge of the Dawson ice
factory since the plant was recently
purchased by the Atlantic Ice and
Coal Corporation, requests The News
to state that the rumor that the plant
will be closed and ice shipped here
from some other point is without
foundation.
Not only will the factory be operat-
ed by the new owners, but considera-
Bile Improvements will be made and a
larger output and better quality of ice
will be furnished the public The cold
storage capacity will also be enlarged,
which will be OF great benefit to the
farmers i'll saving their meat.
Besides manufacturing and selling
ice the company will also sell coal OF
the best grades, and their guarantee as
to quality will be behind every pound
of ice and coal sold to the people OF
Dawson and surrounding section.
Mr.. Dickson says the ATLANTIC Ice
and Goal Corporation has entered the
field here as a Dawson enterprise, and
will be fully identified with the inter
ests OF the city.
Mr. Guy Johnson comes to Daw-
son from Richland as the new mana
ger OF the plant He has had con-
siderable experience in the ice and
coal business, and will give the public
the best service possible.
The man who brags about working
sixteen hours day usually has mighty
little to show for it.
