DADE’S PROGRESS During the past few Dade county has, by ous, cooperative efforts of citizens, become one of the ing counties in north Georgia. Our splendid highway, ing the entire width of the ty, extending north and south has made our farm land valuable and our farmers progressive. Our splendid school has made our county a more sirable place to live and rear children. No longer is it neces¬ sary to send our childlren out ol the county to secure a high school education; and now we have recently voted a bond issue for erection of more mod¬ ern schools, we shall soon rate among the larger and more pro¬ gressive counties in an educa¬ tional way. A larger, more modern and commodious high school build ing is soon to be erected at Tren ton; Davis high school, atop Sand mountain, has been allot¬ ted $30,000 for the erection of a new gymnasium and other nec¬ essary school buildings, and equipping the building with a new central heating system, al¬ so an adequate water system. A beautiful new school building is now under course of construc¬ tion on Lookout mountain, and Morganville will also have a mod¬ ern new school building to re¬ place the one burned during the early part of this year. With the completion of these modern and well equipped school buildings, Dade county children will have educational advantages second to none, and a school system of which we all will be justly proud. In our rapid march of progress there are yet many things es¬ sential to the future growth and development of our county; two of the most essential improve¬ ments at this time being an ad¬ equate water system; also a sys¬ tem of telephone lines reaching into every community and con¬ necting with a central office in Dade county. We now have plans for the construction and operation of two water systems, both of which are in litigation and tied up in¬ definitely, awaiting action by the Supreme Court of Georgia. It is not the province of your home paper to determine which water system proposed, is the better one, nor the intention of the management to take sides in the litigation; but it is our province to make a plea that the promotors of both enter¬ prises lay aside all personal feel¬ ing in this litigation and unite on some plan or system that will give our county a water system that will supply ample water to our citizens, without further de¬ lay. The development of our is being retarded just at a when real estate is in demand, and when are anxiously looking for and building sites, and are will ing. to pay the highest ever realized in the history our county. Desirable spirited people will not home sites in towns and nities that are lacking in mod ern improvements; and bickerings and delays are cost ing our county many families good citizens and tax payers are purchasing farms and sites elsewhere. No county in our broad has a finer citizenship than Dade; we are all friends, working for a cause, the welfare and ment of our county. We only to unite, clasp hands work out a plan that is satisfac tory to all, and will result giving our citizens an THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1946. water supply in every town community in the county. United we stand, divided will cease to grow! Which course shall we GROOM GETS A BOOST One editor, who got tired of wedding which skipped the groom’s almost entirely, turned tables the other day by ing the groom. He gave bride a few words and turned to the groom as follows: TT^e bridegroom, blushing prettily, was attractively clad in a three piece suit of brown woolen material consisting of a coat, a vest and pants. The coat was charmingly festooned with a white flower in the left buttonhole. The vest was sleeveless, closed in front and gracefully fashioned with pock¬ ets. It was held together in the back with a strap and buckle. His pants were neatly pressed for the occasion and he wore them with an air as if he little suspected it would be the last time he ‘wore pants in that family. Hose and necktie ad¬ ded just the right dach of color to complement the effect. The shoes were of genuine leather, laced with a string of the same, giving a chic appearence. The shirt was of white broadcloth material, purchased on the black market in Atlanta. It had an 8-button front, one back, two sleeves, two cuffs and one collar. The shirt was worn with the tail neatly tucked in the pants”.

Bad weather was at its worst, ice gripped every weed stiffly, making of the landscape a pic¬ ture of heavenly beauty, a mill¬ ion diamonds, some with rain- bow hues, sparkled over the land as the pale winter sun come up on that fateful day blazing fee- bly from a cloudless blue sky that somehow looked sick des¬ pite the day’s glory. Carl Smith looked out the small window and shivered despite the fact that his woman had been up since four and had faithfully tended the small rusty heater. She had even stuffed paper in the cracks of the door and hung quilts up where there should have been, doors, stripping her own bed to do so. Tommy and Timmy were on the floor eating gravy And bread. That awful cruel meat¬ less thirst had driven Carl from his warm bed. Today was Satur¬ day and it was 6 in the and he said in his quiet way he hated to go to town—his eyes cast down, his empty and sick. Caroline tened, her eyes intently on face, watching his every ment, but she said nothing. kids went to the window ing with glee over the of ice glittering in the “Daddy, did you see the purty ice my mama says dear Lord put it there last while I was asleep”—and asked almost breathless, the dear Lord do it, Daddy, DID the dear Lord put it daddy?” The little son held breath waiting for his two bright eyes searching daddy’s pale grey face. son,” Carl said, trying to put socks snugly around his legs. It would be awfully underfoot today. He had ly heard his child’s about the Lord. To tell truth he had forgotten there a Lord or an eternity His sole aim was to forget erything as soon as possible.
