OPEN LETTER FROM
B. WEEvIL TO WIFE
HUMOROUS DOCUMENT GIVES
SOUND ADVICE; PUBLISHED
BY BANK OF PARROT.

A letter from Mr.. B. Weevil to Mrs
Weeyil appears in a full page adver-
tiSement in this issue of The Dawson
News, and is the third of series oil
advertisements encouraging the farm
ers in their campaign against that in
satiable insect The letter was written
by man who has made a careful
study of the boil weevil, and is nc
doubt the gist OF what real letter
from the weevil would contain.
An active fight is being waget
against the great destroyer which has
caused stringent times in this and all
other cotton counties the past several
years, and it is believed that the com
bined efforts of the farmers will bring
the weevil under better control this
year than ever before The dry wealth
er which has prevailed for severa
weeks is likewise an aid in the fight
against the weeWil.
Business firms of the city and coun-
ty will publish these advertisements
which contain good, sound advice and
instructions for making successful war
on the weevil, in future issues of The
News. The advertisement today is
donated to the cause by the Bank OF
Parrott

DUKES RESIGNED;
MRS. GURR ELECTED
CHANGE IN COUNTY SCHOOL
SUPERINTENDENT CAME AS
SURPRISE TO PUBLIC.

MFR. !. c. Dukes has rendered his
rssignation to the county board of ed
,,,ation, and it was very reluctantly
,cceoted. In doing so the board passed
rssoiutions expressing regret at his re-
trement. and praising him for his
work here,
Mrs. w. H. Gurr was unanimously
elerted to fill the vacancy, that power
brino vested in the board by law. The
term OF office of school superintendent
i Jour wears, and the unexpired term
+o which Mrs. Gurr has been elected
will end January |, 1929.
Mr. Dukes will continue in Office
until Tune lst when he will be sue
ceeded by Mrs. Gurr, who will resign
- home economies agent, a position
che has held for several years and
which will become vacant when she
assumes the duties of school superin-
tendcnt.
The salary of Mr.. Dukes was $1,000
year, and the board fixed Mrs.
Gurr's salary at 81, 800 a year.
The board of education is to be con-
Graduated on the election of Mrs
Carr. There is no person in Terrell
county better fitted to fill this position.
Her entire adult life has been spent
either as a teacher in the school room
or as supervisor of domestic and sci
entihc training i'll the county schools.
For IS years she served as principal
in the county schools and for the past
six and a half years has been home
ton with the county schools for all
these years she is thoroughly &C
ouainted with the patrons and pupils,
and also with the needs of the schools
A dozen or more counties in Geor-
ola have elected women to the posi-
ton OF county superintendent of
schools
Will Travel for Book Concern.
In severing his connection with the
schools of the county Mr.. Dukes does
not divorce himself from educational
interests, but will enter into broad
er field of usefulness in that he leaves
TO connect himself with the d. c.
Heath Publishing Co.
His thorough acquaintance with lit
erary and scientific branches and ia
miliarity with text book problems
make him eminently fitted to be the
connecting link between this large
publishing house and the school in
terests of this and adjoining states.
Coming to Dawson in his young
manhood Mr.. Dukes has given 10 of
his best years as an educator in diff
ierent positions. For several years he
was principal of the Dawson high
school and then for number of years
was superintendent OF the schools of
the city. During these years not
boy or girl passed under his influence
but whose life was made better by
the contact Later, as county school
superintendent, he carried the same
conscientious traits into the schools of
the county. His personal interest in
and guidance over young and mex
perenced teachers gave to the county
and state better trained workers,
many of whom gladly testify that.
they owe their success to him.
In giving up Mr.. Dukes Eerrell
county loses not only an able and sue
cessful educator, but a man foremost
in the business, civic, patriotic and
religious life of the community.

received. Not an idle nor an embarrass-

discarded so reluctantly the weight of
city poverty. Laughter, music, fun
prevailed. And after dinner, when the
grown-ups peeked into the nursery to
see what the children were doing, Mr..
Gorse had his triumph. The children
had discarded their expensive toys,
and sat in circle on the floor playing
industriously with some ten-cent mag

hostess, as she lead the Gorses back to

To Get and Give Most
Pleasure at Christmas

THNRE Is Christmas generosity and
= Christmas charity.
But there should always be Christ
mas tact.
When you are giving to those who
have net AZ much as you have do not
give your presents with condescending
manner or with patronizing air.
Do not act as though you were
superior because you could give. Do
not attach a cold, naughty speech to
your gift.
Sometimes people can give 50 that
all the glow that comes from the gift
L. the one they themselves receive be-
cause Of their own feeling Of having
been charitable. Sometimes such q
speech can extract all the real pleasure
out OF the gift to the one receiving 1t.
Christmas Is the time for true char
ity, for that charity which comes from
the heart, which loves ones fellow men
and wants to do all that Is possible
to bring Joy wherever possible.
Give as though 1t were pleasure
to gtve-not as though you were being
noble.
Do not give as though you thought
~ giving you had the right to assume
q certain attitude Of disdain toward
those who were somewhat beholden
to you.
Il you are more fortunate in worldly
goods 1t is your opportunity to have
the great pleasure that Is derived by
giving. There are few greater pleas
