STONE CASTLE CHAPTER HAS AN
UNUSUALLY INTERESTING MEETING

cated Near Dawson. A Prize for
Best Essay by 7th Grade Pupil.
Enthusiastic interest marked the
first iall meeting of Stone Castle chap
ter, D. A. R., at the home of Mrs.
R. E.Bell on Wednesday afternoon.
Mrs. E. T. Jordan, regent, gave pleas
ant greeting to the large number of
members present, and after the invo
cation by Mrs. J. R. Webb and one
verse of “America’ a short business
session brought before the chapter
many matters of interest.
While the monthly meetings had not
been held during the summer the of
ficers were not idle, as was shown by
good reports.
An outline of the chapter plans for
the coming sessions were attractively
presented in the year book just issued,
which is a highly creditable produc
tion in subject matter as well as” typo
graphically. A revelation to all present
was the wonderful work accomplished
by the genealogist, Mrs. W. S. Do
zier, in the large number of papers
‘made out after exhaustive research
that required much time and patience.
Mrs. Dozier has also been active in
the matter of locating graves of sol
diers of 1812 and of the revolution.
Markers for these will be unveiled
with appropriate exercises in the near
future. The grave of Neil McNeil,
born in Fayette district, Roberson
county, N. C., in 1764, was recently
located on the Roberts farm about a
‘mile west of Dawson. Mrs. Dozier has
secured a full record of his service in
the revolutionary war. He died in Ter
rell county in 1845 after residing here
for a number of years.

THE DAWSON NEWS
IN AUTUMN STYLES!
GARMENTS FOR FALL SEASON!
~ PROMISE TO BE VERY |
} PICTURESQUE. |
| T |
| By Margery Wells. i
~ Talk about changing styles! There
‘has been nothing like this season’s
representation for many years past.
You are going to gasp and gasp some
more once the new fall things begin
to appear with any vigog, For we, the
lwomen of America, "are completely
changing our spot—and stripes.
As far as the newly presented styles
are concerned, nothing appears as it
was. We may not choose to adopt
these new things, but here they are
presented to tempt our fancy. And,
if our minds are at all unbiased, we
can not help but see that these new
things have their fine points and their
beauties even though we may not be
used to the idea of applying them to
our own backs.
We are going to be much more pic-!
turesque—that is certain. We may not
look nearly so unaffected and simple
and natural and girlish as we have ini
the past, but the pictures we create
are going to be much more graceful
and beautiful. Perhaps we wiil love
ourselves more in these new clothes
and perhaps there are others who will
love us more. Who knows?
At any rate the experiment of a
brand new type of dressing has its
allure by way of a novelty and it does
llook, if purchases at the big stores are
to be counted as any criterion, as
though we were, at least, about to
make the trial.
New types of strcet coats and suits
are different from almost anything
that has gone before. They are a trifle
extreme, of course, but they ar¢ only
examples of the extremes to which
the mode is bound to go. If you like
extremes, well, these are your things.
!l‘)ut if vou are inclined to be a bit
| more conservative, especially to start
with, then you will be able to find
modifications of these styles.
But it is an excellent idea for the
' woman who is interested in fashion
(and which woman is not, I ask you)
to study frocks that go to extremes.
In that wayv she is able to form her
ideas according to the latest dictates.
And, even though she compromises to
a great extent, there still remains a
modicum of style which she can not
very well escape.
Long Coat Made Over.
Take the new long coat. It has a
skirt. It has a basque. It has trim
mings of stripes made of braidings.
In fact no trouble has bgen spared to
make it redolent of the newer styles.
You will find that a great many of
the newer coats and wraps are made
so that they might casily be mistaken
for frocks. There is one great advan
tage in this idea, which is that if the
underlying dress is not just what it
should be, why then the coat can
serve all purposes of appearance with
out any difficulty whatsoever,
Suit Jackets Are Dressy.
So many of the newer suits have
jackets that are most dressmaker look
.ing. They are getting away from the
' hard and fast lines of the tailored goat.
| Of course the tailored suit will always
isurvive for certain purposes and for
| certain types of women, but these
| newer, softer lines in_the way of coats
- have a great appeal. for the masses
;and, beyond a doubt, will be most pop
| ular guring the corting season.
: . While there are all sorts of ways of
' making thes shorter guit coat, the onc
' with fhe peplum is. perhaps, the best
liked of them all. It suits the average
figure with the greatest ease and it
with the fullness allowed to the pep
lam itself, covers up defects of one’s
fig_!!)_rheu no other style of coat can do,
= e smit coat with a cape attached
lis not -exactly what_you might call
AR RTR L L e N S e
brand new, but then it is one of the
newer styles just the same. It is an
accepted thing and, if you are not anx
ious to rush to extremes, especially
with your first fall suit, then you
might adopt something of this char
acter to tide vou over to a complete
change of fashion.
The suit of one of* those lighter
serges is especially suitable for the
first cool days and to carry over into
winter weather. Then the little extra
cape that is attached is something that
can be hugged around your figure un
til a modicum of extra warmth is sup-!
plied. Added to which there is a grace
fulness about a little cape whichghas
imuch to recommend it in the face of
the fact that fashion or the newly
dawning day will necessarily” be more
picturesque.

But Not So Bad If You Know How
To Reach the Cause.
Nothing more discouraging than a
constant backache. Lame when you
awaken, pains pierce yon when you
bend or lift. It's hard to work or to
rost. Backache often indicates bad
kidneys. Dawson people recommend
‘Doan’s Kidney Pills. Ask your neigh
hor.
\ Mrs. L. W. Wagnon, N. Stonewall
street, Dawson, says: “l can recom
‘mend Doan’s Kidney Pills because 1
have used them” for yeass. Colds set
tled on my kidneys, causing attacks oi
kidney complanit. At times 1 could
‘hardly raise up when 1 stooped to
pick up the dust-pan on account oi
severe pains in the small of my back.
1 feit tired and nervous and became
easily upset. I often took hold of a
chair to keep from falling. Doan’s Kid
lney Pills soon rid me of the backache
and -other symptoms.”

The Law of Habit
Habit is the deepest law of nature. We first make
our habits, and then our habits make us.
It's essentially as easy to form one habit as another
—as easy to be habitually prudent and saving as habit
ually extravagant.
Train yourself to save a reasonable portion of your
income, and such saving will soon become well nigh as
automatic as the heart action itself.
We have to form this habit ourselves—no one else
can confer it upon us.
&
Remember the saving habit is worth while.
The next thing is—start today, by opening an ac
count at this bank.
We pay 4 per cent on time deposits.
