iW. M. U. Rally Held in 1
| Bronwood on Wednesday
All Churches in District Represented.
. Next Meeting at Dawson.
The W. M. U.’rally opened on
'V’Vednesday morning at Bronwood,
with representatives from all the
\churches in the Dawson district pres
ent.
l The women were led in a devotion
\al by Mrs. Emma Crouch, who se
lected for her theme, “Condemning
Sin.” Her talk was brief but carefully
prepared, and left her audience real
izing that an acute consciousness of
sin is more needed now than an enor
nious accession of conceit. }
Miss Ethel Cowart led the union in
singing +We're Marching to Zion.”
‘Then there were some welcome ad-‘
‘dresses of the usual sort and length,
and the visiting churches expressed
‘their appreciation of the hearty wel-‘
come from the Bronwood society
through Mrs. Hannah, of Herod. Mrs.i
Coker, district secretary, created quite
'a good,_deal of interest in having the(
‘presidént of each society answer ta‘
roll call with the number of points on
the standard of excellence her socie-‘
‘ty had reached. It was a very whole
some thing to have these women give
an account of the points attained.
Rev. Lowe gave a talk bearing on
the same line of the devotional, “Con
demning Sin.” At the 11 hour Rev.
J. C. Moore, pastor of the Bronwood
church, preached a sermon on “What
a W. M. S. Should and Should Not
lBe.” Then the meeting was adjourn
ed for lunch, when plenty of goed
things to eat were served by the
Bronwood iadies.
The afternoon session was opened
with a scripture lesson bx Mrs. Free
man, of Weston. After this a special
song, “Shine,” was rendered by Rosa
Lee Fleming. Mrs. Highbeau then
led a prayer for the children. {
The campaign acrostic, by the
Dawson society, filled the audience
with a spirit of hope, courage and de
termination to finish in a worthy way
the great 75 million campaign.
The superintendent was present
again, and she and the secretary, Mrs.
Coker, are serving in many ways, and
through persistent efforts we are sure
to be an A-1 organization.
It was a wonderful day. The Daw
son church will have the next rally.

it’s Grandmother’s Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair
You can turn gray, faded hair beau
tifully dark and iustrous almost over
night if you'll %et a bottle of “Wyeth’s
Sage and Sulphur Compound” at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
are sold annually, say well-known drug
gists here, because it darkens the hair
so naturally and evenly that no one can
tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have a surprise awaite
ing them, because after one or two ap
plications the gray hair vanishes and
r;lr locks become luxuriantly dark and
utiful. ) i 2N
This is the age of youth. Gray

around, so get busy wi s Sage
and Sulphur Compound to-night and
U be delighted with your dark,

SOLD AND DESTINATION. ‘
There has been much speculation
as to the number of negroes who have
left Terrell county to find employ
ment in different sections of the
north, and, as is usual in matters of
this kind, some people have been in
clined to exaggerate the situation.,
The majority of the citizens, however,
are persuing the even tenor of their
way, firm in the belief that things
will adjust themselves sooner or later.
The white labor that has come to
Terrell county to take the place of
the negroes is proving to be satis
factory, and on many of the best
farms these white familieg have set
tled down to hard work and quiet,
peaceful living. The large majority of
the best negroes, too, are still with
us, helping to bring back old time
prosperity to this highly favored sec
tion. Many see no occasion to “view
with alarm” the fact that a few col
ored people are leaving every week
for other sections. Good, honest work
and a square deal for white and black
is bound to keep Terrell county in the
middle of the road.
Mr. Dan Flinn, agent of the Cen
tral of Georgia railroad, has furnish
ed The News with the following in
teresting information regarding the
movement of negroes, including men,
women and children, to other points
since October Ist. last:
Boston, Mass., 1; Columbus, Ohio,

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE WAS
LARGEST EVER THIS YEAR
Average Age of Graduates at Dawson
High Placed at Seventeen.
The successful closing of the Daw
son public school was marked by a
number of outstanding features. Dur
ing the year there was the largest
average attendance in the history of
the school, and the graduating class
was not only the largest ever sent
out but in many respects the finest.
The average age of the high school
pupils graduating in Dawson this
year was seventeen. As the twenty
two young ladies and eight young
gentlemen appeared in a body for the
first time before the public Wednes
day night the large audience respond
ed to the inspiration of the scene with
genuine admiration. Prof. Monts, so
well equipped in head and heart for
the responsible office of superintend
ent, has been sustained by an efficient
corps of teachers in his devotion to
the work and the desire to be of the
largest sesvice to the school and the
community. The co-operation of the
board and the pupils with the faculty
has made it a pleasant year for all
concerned.
