After canvassing the Suggestion
Cards that were turned in we have
found that the majority of the people
of Dawson want big feature produc
tions, and we have arranged to give
you one every week, beginning on
the 27th of December. Each of these
attractions have been especially se
lected and they will consist of at least
five resls and sometimes more.
All of these pictures show at ad
vanced prices all over the country,
but we are going to show them at re
duced prices in Dawson—we are go
ing to charge 15 cents admission. ‘
This doesn’t look like reduced
prices, does it? But it is. T.ook at
it in this way and you will see that an
admission charge of 15 cents is cheap
er than 10 cents. Here is how it is:
You pay 10 cents every night to see
three reels, an average of 3 1-3 cemsl
per reel. On feature nights you will|
see five reels for 15 cents, an average |
cost of 3 cents per reel, which, you
will see, makes the features cost you
less money than the regular program.
But the ‘quality of these feature pro
ductions far surpasses that of the
regular programs. |
They will all be made from stand-;
ard novels and plays, with world-(
known. players as stars. So prepare;
right now to see every one of these
features. They cost us a bunch of
money to put them on and it takes a
good crowd to keep them. We ha\'ei
done our part in booking these at
tractions, so please do yours by com
ing and make them a success. ‘

ANNA LITTLE.
Miss Little was born in the shadow
of Mount Shasta, Calif., and she has
been brought up to appreciate the
lore and romance of her native state.
She is one of the best loved actresses
on the motion pictnre stage.
No feat on horseback nor any of
the spectacular renditions of Western
life is new to Miss Little. She can
ride a bucking bronco with the skill
of a performer in a three ring circus,
and in the next scene she can carry
off Parisian clothes as gracefully as
‘a French marquise.
‘ This “striking dark-eyed actress is
iu modest person. Her stage career
'has been more a matter of necessity
than of personal ambition. The death
of her father brought home to Miss
Little the need of deciding upon some
means of supporting herself and her
mother, and being gifted with beauty
and voice she entered musical come
dy, making her debut with Richard
Carle in “‘The Tenderfoot.”
Francine Larrimore, the newest ad
dition to the list of Mutual ‘“Rialto”
stars. who is at present working at
the Gaumont studio in “The Devil's

Salamander,” the dramatization of
the book by Owen Johnson, which has
just been made into a motion picture.
Miss Larrimore is at present the in
genue lead in ‘‘Some Baby,” at the
Fulton theatre. She will be remem
bered in ‘“The Master Mind’* and “‘The
Misleading Lady”’ and in the A. .

CENTRAL RAILROAD WRITES A
LETTER TO COUNTY'S CHAMP
PION CORN GROWER.
e '
Walter Bridges, the fifteen-year-old
son of Mr. H. T. Bridges who won
the short-horn bull offered by the
Central railroad as a prize for the
four-crop contest in Terrell county,
has received the animal and a letter
from the railroad company, of wiiich
the following is a copy:
“Dear Sir: We have formal advice
from Mr. J. K. Giles, state agent in
Boys’ Club work, that you are the
winner of the Short-hcrn bull offered
by this company as prize for Four-
Crop Club contest in Terrell county,
and I desire to congratulate you, no:
only upon having won this valuanle
prize, but upon your encrgy and abil
ity as a farmer, which is proven by
the fact that you made greater net
profits from your on¢ acre of ~<orn,
one acre in ‘cotton, and one acre in
winter oats followed by cowpea hay
than any other boy who entered the
Four-Crop contest in your county.
“Jor the Central of Georgia rail
way company I take pleasure in ad
vising that we are glad to give you
this bull as a reward for your ef
forts, and trust you may be able to
make good use of him, and that as a
result of your ownership of the bull
you may become as successful in
stock raising as you have proven
vourself to be in crop growing.
“We note as a result of the bulls
given as prizes last year an active
interest is being taken in the raising
of better cattle in most of the coun
ties where the Four-Crop winners
received bulls, and we trust such may
be the case in your community. Mr,
J. . Jackson, our agricultural agent,
will arrange to have the bull deliver
ed to vou as early as it is possible
to do so. Yours sincerely,
“W. A. WINBURN, President.”

for commutation. |
Aaron has served three years of a
sentence of ten years for suborni-.

the plea mwade in his belnif i 3 that
he was under the influencs of and
used as a tool by other parties. Among
those who have joined in the request
for clemency for Aaron are numerous
prominent citizens, the grand jurors
who indicted him, the trial jurors,
Sheriff Turner, who was then chief
of police and prosecuted the case; At
torneys Wilkinson amd Gurr, who
were connected with the prosecution;

has never been tried.

ALMOST LOST HOPE OF GETTING
WELL. TAKES TANLAC; FEELS
BETTER THAN IN 25 YEARS.
“Tanlac, to my mind, is the great
est and grandest medicine in the
world,” said ‘O. H. Mahaffy, Chief En
gineer of the Life & Casualty Build
ing, Nashville, a few days ago.
“] have taken eight bottles,” he
continued, ‘‘and have actually gained
forty pounds in weight, and feel
stronger and better than I have in
twenty-five years.
“For two years I have suffered
with the werst kind of stomach trou
ble and indigestion, and fell off in
weight from 210 pounds to 162. 1 am
now back at 202, which is almost as
much as | weighed before 1 was taken
sick. About six months ago 1 got
awful bad off, and called in the doc
tor, and he told me I had an ulcer
of the stomach, and if 1 was not care
ful it might turn into cancer. He
cave me some medicine. I didn’t seem
to get any better, and was afraid to
eat anything except a little oatmeal
and sweet milk, but in spite of every
thing I could do, I just kept going
down hill, and got weaker and weak
er every day. 1 got so disheartened
one day I told my employer it looked
like I would have to throw up my
job. 1 was trying to hold on though
as long as I could, for 1 had a family
to support, and I made up my mind
that just as long as 1 could drag
myself around I would stick it out.
“One day my wife told me what
she had read in the papers, and what
the neighbors were saying about Tan
lac, and begged me to try it. She had
read about a- man who had taken
it, who described my case exactly,
and he was getting lots better, but
I had tried all kinds of medicines, so
I didn’t have much hope of it doing
me much good. Besides, my doctor
had already told me I would have to
be operated on in order to get relief.
Something just told me, though it
might help me, and [ decided to try
it.
«After I had taken it &€ day or
two, I got so hungry I just simply
had to eat, and I did eat and you can
believe me or not, nothing seemed
to hurt me ‘a particle. My wife said
to me, ‘Tanlac must be helping you,’
and I said, ‘I guess it is from the way
I am eating.’
“Tt wasn’t long before those awful
pains in my stomach and the small of
my back began to leave me. Then I
noticed 1 began to sleep better, and
I would get up in the mornings full
of life and ready to work. The medi
cine seemed to take hold quicker than
anything I ever saw, and braced me
right up. lam telling all my friends
about Tanlac, and hope everybedy
will hear about it.”

~ Potash, for fertilizing, is scarcer than hen’s teeth,
No use to look to Germany, the normal source of sup
ply, for Potash can’t be gotten from there now.
But you can get Potash right here at home, in fer
tilizer which contains as a source of its ammonia
Every pound of Cotton Seed Meal, in addition to supplying
from 73% to 8% of Ammonia, also contain 2{% of Phesphoric
Acid and an average of 2% of Potash.
When your j;ertilizer contains Cotton Seed Meal, it not only
supplies your soil with the desired amount of ammonia, but
also gives to it Potash in the most desirable form and in an
amount larger than can be obtained from any other source of
ammonia. In addition it furnishes over 2% of Phosphoric Acid,
another most important and valuable element of piant food,
which fact is not generally appreciated.
The fact must not be lost sight of that in using Cotton Seed
Meal you have a fertilizer which feeds the growing plant grad
ually during its entire growth and leaves in the soil a most
valuable humus with which to sustain succeeding crops.
A demonstration recently conducted at the State College
of Agriculture, extending over two years, proved that the best
production per acre was made through the use of Cotton Seed
Meal as a source of ammonia.
When your fertilizer is based upon Cotton Seed Meal, it
contains all that the other sources of ammonia have, and in
addition, Potash, which the other sources have not.
