Appeal From High
School Annual Staff
After two days of laborious talk
ing the business manager of the Daw
son High School Annual, with five as
sistants, has gotten twelve pages of
advertisements from the local mer
chants. While matters could be
worse they certainly could be better,
as it is necessary to have at least
twenty pages of advertisements to
bear half of the expense of the An
nual.
Why we have been turned down by
a good many Dawson firms is more
than we can see. The publishing of
this Annual will widely advertise our
high school and, in doing so, will also
advertise Dawson.
The Americus high school has been
publishing annuals for several years,
and has always received the whole
hearted support of the Americus bus
iness firms. Can it be said that Amer
icus merchants are more public spirit
ed than those of Dawson? Will not
those firms who have not given ad
vertisements aid us in securing the
necessary eight pages?
As a business proposition we feel
that this advertising will bring re
sults, There are to be at least 200
copies of this Annual, and we feel
sure that the numerous supporters of
our school will take much interest in
these, our first Annuals, and read
them from cover to cover, and the
firms advertising in our Annuals may
be sure that they will be noted and
recognized as the firms who have the
welfare of our school and our city
at heart.
We feel sure that our alumni,
among whom are some of the most
prominent men of Dawson, especially
will respond to our appeal. D. H. S.

The Successful Farmer
Raises Bigger Crops
and cuts down costs by investment in
labor-saving machinery.
Good prices for the farmers’ crops en
courage new investment, more production
and greater prosperity.
But the success of agriculture depends
on the growth of railroads—the modern
beasts of burden that haul the crops to
the world’s markets.
The railroads—llike the farms—increase
their output and cut down unit costs by
the constant investment of new capital.
With fair prices for the work they do,
the railroads are able to attract new capital
for expanding their facilities.
Rates high enough to yield a fair return
will insure railroad growth, and prevent
costly traffic congestion, which invariably
results in poorer service at higher cost.
National wealth can increase only as our
railroads grow.
Poor railroad service is dear at any
price. No growing country can long pay
the price of inadequate transportation
facilities.
