THE U. D. C. CHAPTER
PLEASANT PROGRAM GIVEN
AT LAST MEETING. ENCOUR
AGING REPORTS MADE.
The life and character of Jefferson
Davis furnished the inspiring theme
of the well arranged program which
made the last meeting for the year of

unusual interest. Mrs. J. W. Kennedy
read a biography of Mr. Davis, writ

ing by Miss Mattibel Pinkston, of
Parrott.. Mrs. A. L. McLendon told

dent Davis. Reading, “Pro Patria,”
by Miss Martha Lamar. Solo, “The
South’'s Annie Laurie,” by Miss Nel
lie Laing. Misses Pinkston, Lamar
and Laing were forced to respond to
enthusiastic encores.
The president, Mrs. T. C. Geise,
took up the business of the hour in
a way that gave the large number of
members present a comprehensive
idea ‘oi the good work accomplished
by the chapter the past year, which
has been due to the loyalty and co
operation of the officers and members
with their efficient leader. Mrs. Geise
expressed appreciation of the support
given her by the chapter, and pre
sented a carefully compiled paper
showing a large paid-up membership.
Encouraging reports were made by
each officer of the chapter. Especially
interesting was the report of the nom
inating committee, submitting names
of officers for the coming year which
was adopted, as follows:
President, -Mrs. 1. C. Melton; first
vice president, Mrs. J. M. Rauch;
second vice president, Mrs. J. W.

Says Local “Wets” Are -
Discrediting Prohibition
People Should Take Trouble to Trace
Rumors, Says Mr. Hornady.
Editor Dawson News: It would be
amusing if it was not so tragical to
hear some of our best citizens helping
to spread propaganda manufactured
by the liquor interests for the express
purpose of discrediting the prohibi
tion law. Hardly a day passes that
the writer docs not hear good people
repeating rumors of the amount of
whisky floating arouna m Terrell
county. Only last week three good
men were bemoaning the situation, it
being reported that whisky could be
bought almost anywhere in any quan
tity desired. Pinned down for facts
they were forced to admit that they
were repeating rumors and did not
know of a ‘single case. .
1f one will take the trouble to trace
these rumors it will be found in most
instances that they are absolutely
false, or shamefully exaggerated. I
fail to see how the buyer of liquor
is any better than the seller. Both are
giving their influence to the breaking
down of the law. A man who knows
of violations of the prohibition law
and fails to report the same is not
living up to the standard of good citi
zenship. In the language of the edi
tqr_of a leading magazine, “Let pro
hibition not become alarmed by the
wild reports of the professional wets.”
As I see it we have nothing to fear
if the good men and women of Ter
rell county will only put moral issues
above material interests, come out in
the open and fight to the finish for a
dece\nt respect for law and order.

ONE OF HANDSOMEST AND
MOST CONVENIENTLY AR
RANGED IN THE STATE.
Prosperity and good taste ase re
flected in every part of the handsome
new home into which the City Na
tional Bank finished moving yester
day, without interruption to their ex
tensive business activity. This bank,
established in 1902, has long been rec
ognized as one of the leading institu
tions of the city, 2 strong exponent of
the possibilities of this favored sec
tien. It is significant that increasing
business has made necessary this larg
er and better equipped building. Those
who have gone through the different
departments are frank in their praise.
It is constructed along the most mod
ern and ‘approved methods.
The entire improvement was @ de
signed and built by George Hall
Smith, designer and builder, of Co
lumbus, Ga. Mr. Smith is considered
one _#f the foremost experts on bank
and store designs in the south and is
now engaged in the building of sev
eral new bank homes in other states.
He will also have charge of the im
provements and building of the new
Roberts & Lark department and
Lowrey & Davidson stores.
The building is equipped with the
byvell-known Arcola heating system, and
was installed by T. Wood., who has
furnished the beautiful lights, being
assisted by Phil Allen in the ex
tensive wiring. The decorator, Mr.
Glenn R. Lewis, of Albany, has com
pleted a most artistic and attractive
interior in perfect harmony with ali
the other handsome material.
Massive marble columns support
the front, and heavy plate glass win
dows give light and ornament along
the side of the long building. Al! of
Dawson is proud of this splendid ad
dition to the business section, and the
officials of the bank are being con
gratulated on their enterprise. i
