THE GEORGIA GLEE CLUB
MADE BIG HIT IN DAWSON
Large Crowd Attended Performance
By University Boys.

The Georgia G1ee club gave SPLEEN
did performance to a large audience
in Dawson Thursday night. From the
time the show began until the fall OF
the final curtain the audience was kept
in high spirit by the clever acting OF
the black face comedians. The solos
were very pleasingly rendered.
Chubby" Allen, president of the
club, made the hit OF the evening and
drew a round OF applause by each OF
his acts. The comedy skit, The Bull
Throwers, written by him and in
which he took the leading role, pro-
duced hilarious laughter.
The Bull Dog Orchestra was an
other great attraction. Beside the us
ual Jazz numbers, which were played
with unusual harmony and pep, the
orchestra featured THE Rosary" and
made a decided hit.
All in all the show was good one,
well rendered and we'll received, and
the Georgia boys have hearty invi-
tation to make Dawson on their tour
in 1926
A dance in the Brannon building
after the show also drew large crowd,
and the young people enjoyed them
selves until the wee small hours OF the
morning.

PLANT 400 ACRES OF
MELONS IN TERRELL
NEW CROP HERE is EXPECT
ED BRING IN MUCH MONEY
IN DULL SEASON.

The planting of watermelons in Ter
rell county went on practically all OF
the past week, and it is believed that
another week will find total of 400
acres in that crop planted with the
best grade of seed, treated to prevent
fungus growth. Mr. w. H. Dismuke
leads with an acreage of between 90
and 100 acres.
This is the first year that the grow
ing of watermelons has been attempt
ed on a large scale. The melons will
be sold through a broker in Dawson.
Due to reduced acreage in some parts
of the melon district the prices will
probably be boosted considerably.
A special grade OF fertilizer has
been prepared under the supervision
of County Agent Gibson, and melon
growers are using it heavily.
Melons begin to go to market the
latter part of June and shipments con
tinue through July. This is the season
just before cotton begins to come in
and generally finds the county in a
somewhat depressed condition fnan-
cially. The value of cash producing
crop just at that time OF year is readi-
ly understood, and some of the best
cotton growers in the county are plant
ing melons.

MANY ANIMALS ARE THEIR

Some Very Remarkable Instances of

Remarkable instances of what is

birds whose legs, having previously
been injured, were skillfu1ly band

pulled from the birds breasts.
A famous Partisan surgeon states
that he killed a bird whose broken
leg had been supported by a sort OF
sling made OF feathers bound into po-
sition by the bird itself
Of this extraordinary intelligence
among birds and animals there are
many other records. Not long ago a
farmer in the Midlands reported that

.BRUNSON HOME BURNS
IN BAKER COUNTY
TWO YOUNG GIRLS HEROIC
ALLY SAVE THEIR AGED,
HELPLESS GRANDFATHER.

The home of the late James Brun-
son in Baker county, the place better
known as the old Walton place, was
destroyed by fire several days ago,
about noon, together with the contents
of the home. Two young girls, Misses
Brunson, got their aged and helpless
grandfather out and away from the
burning building and then carried out
a good many OF the household effects,
but strong wind blowing the flames
from the fire set these things ablaze
and also burned them. AS result the
loss was a total one, no insurance
having been carried.

the Second regiment hospital corps
left Dawson Friday night at $50
o'clock on two special cars for the
state mobilization camp at Macon.
This was the first unit in the state to
be called out, and it is more than
likely that the boys will be called to
duty on the border in the near future.
The members of the company, con-
sisting mainly of boys still in their
teens, represent the best families in
Dawson and Terrell county, and they
were given rousing send-off by the
three hundred parents and friends who
were at the train Friday night. Their
leaving was impressive, and it was
with proud and aching hearts that
they were given the best of what may

organization up to the required
strength.
Monday being an inclement day
there was not the demonstration that
marked the departure of the hospital
corps, but that Friday night was for
all OF the boys, and the members of
the band can rest assured that they
have the best wishes and the pro-

His House Colleague !

Tulsa, Okla, today denied that he
