price this early in the season. We are showing them in the very latest shades and stripes
and plaids—will save you enough on your suit to buy yourself a Stetson hat or a $4 Oxford.

MISS DOWDELL SPOKE TO
BARROW CITIZENS WEDNESDAY
Home Economics Superintendent of
Georgia to Place a Teacher
in this County at Once.
If all the people of Barrow county
could have heard Miss Dowdell at
the court house Wednesday, it would
not be necessary for us to make this
announcement, but as all wore not
there ,we want to advise that a teach
er will be assigned to Barrow coun
ty to teach Home Economics to the
girls and housewives. The teacher
comes here as an employee of the
United States Government. Half of
her’salary is to be paid by the Feder
al Government from the Smith-Lever
fund, and the other half is paid by
the Woodruff North Georgia Fair.
This service is the same for ths
girls and housewives, in teaching Do
mestic Science and general home
work, as the Farm Demonsrtator is
to the farmer boys and farmers. As
a rule the county pays half of the
salary, while the United States gov
ernment pays the other half, while ir
this instance we are paying from the
funds of the fair that part of the
salary that is supposed to be paid by
the county. We regret that we were
unable to get a Farm Demonstrator
here this year.
The writer in conversation with
Prof. Holsenbeck last January, stat
ed that if we could get a fair deal
from the City officials we would do
nate three.hundred dollars toward the
salary of a Farm Demonstrator, but
knowing that our Mayor was prone
to play cheap politics to the extreme
without regard for the oath he took
when he assumed the duties of his
office, we were expecting nothing but
trouble from that source, therefore
were unable to venture out as we
would like to have done, and while
we can’t yet tell how much we will
be held up for by the city officials
in the way of legal graft in the form
of specific taxes, yet we will see to
it that the bright girls and the good
women of tire county have the advan
tage of a teacher in Home Economics
A competent teacher will be here
at your service, and we have abso
lutely no control over her work. She
is an employee of the Federal gov
ernment, and if you are interested
in her services, write to us and get
in line with the work. Prof, and
Mrs. Holsenbeck will assist in this
work also. We hope that this will
be the beginning of a domestic edu
cation for the people of the county.
Come in to see us when in JLOW' .
and get ready for the same - old fair„
at the same time and place.
Respectfully,
G. W. WOODRUFF, Mgr.
