Bureau of Census, Dade! produced Coujity Jarm crops families and ~" J last livestock year j with the record volume of more than $460,000. I This huge increase in faim — revenue will undoubtedly re¬ sult in heavy demand for gen¬ eral farm improvemnets and for home remodeling when mater¬ ials become more plentiful, ac¬ cording to a study released by the Tile Council of America- With every industry anticipating greater business in the state than before the war, floor and wall tile manufacturers alone expect their sales here to triple in the next few years. “Increased sales of industrial products mean in turn a new level of prosperity for every lo¬ cal businessman and worker,’’ said D. P. Forst, chairman of the Council’s Residential Construc¬ tion Committee. throughout Volume of home moderization| the county will be, greatly stepped up as result of the present rapid extension ot electric service to rural areas, according to the study. ticipated est remodeling demand Is an-| for the installation of running water, tiling of bath¬ rooms and improving kitchen layouts, Forst said. Forst also pointed out the need for replacing much of the war-weary machinery on the 557 farms listed for this county in the 1945 census figures. “The demand for new trucks, tractors and other equipment, as well as for home remodeling, demonstrates the importance of it the farm market and makes j one which no businessman or, manufacturer can afford to overlook,” he said.

Use as directed on THE DADE COLNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1946. Davis Community Are Royal Entertainers By C. S. Turner Friday, December 13, was a Red Letter Day for the citizens of the Davis community, on Sand Mountain, especially so foi members of the Davis Hi 4-H Club and other students of the public school. With a notable reputation al¬ ready established for doing worthwhile things for their school and community, these progresive citizens have demon¬ strated that they are also roy¬ al entertainers. The occasion was a joint meeting of the Community Far¬ mers’ Association, the Parent- Teachers Association and the 4- H Club, at which a banquet was served, and an enjoyable pro¬ gram was rendered. The writer has attended many other banquets, where excellent food was served, with all the trimmin’s, but the long tables, which were laid in the high school cafeteria, for this occa¬ sion, were literally groaning with delectable food that would make a gourmet smile with sat¬ isfaction The program that followed the banquet consisted of reports ot c i ub activities during the year, also of visits some of t he mem- bers h ad made to 4-H club meet- ings in distant cities during the past several months. C. W. Stephens, 4-H Club Pres¬ idin':, introduced the club mem bcr ~ to the audience, and Miss Loraine Horton acted as Pro- gram Director. The following interesting program was render- ed by me mbers of the 4-H Club: Songs—Old Black Joe and Dix- ie Land (M iss Poyce Powell at £ be p j ano ). introduction of Members. 4-H club President, C- W. Stephens, A view of Athens, L. J. Steph- ens . Report of trip to Waycross, Jack McAbee. Milledgeville Can Be Educa- tional, C. W.

Stephens’ medal was a warded for having won first prize on a pen of fancy New jersey Red pullets; Miss johnnie Pike was also awarded a me dal as second prize on her poultry project, her exhibit be- ing - a pe n of New Jersey Rbd pu ii e ts, also. After awarding of prizes to t be successful and happy 4-H club leaders, P. B. McAbee, one of the outstanding farmers of Dav i S community, entertain^ t be a udience with a number of selections played on his harmon- ica ,-and could that man play? R e "made the welkin ring, and was loudly applauded at the con c i us ion of his program, Following Mr. McAbee’s pro¬ gram an ole-time square dance had be en arranged by members of tbe 4-H Club, the first dance being the Virginia Reel, which was danced only by the younger get, led by Assistant County Agent Jno- P. Dempsey. This , beau tiful dance of by-gone-days had bee n well rehearsed, and was be autifully rendered, T ben came other dances, both S q Uare and other fancy steps, where the old folk joined hands with youth, and to the tunes of "Rye Straw,” Turkey In the Straw,” and many other selec¬ tions, they tripped the light fan¬ tastic toe, forgetting all else other than the announcer’s call and the tripping of feet on pleas¬ ure bent. Mrs. M- R- Wilson was pianist for the occasion. To Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Hood, Mr. and Mrs. William Pike, Mr- and Mrs. P B MsAbee, Mr. and Mrs- Giles Gass, and a number of other leading members of the Davis community should be giv¬ en credit for the success of this get-together meeting, and also for the many splendid improve¬ ments being made on Sand mountain, especially in their own immediate community. Neithle human applause nor human cesure is to be taken as the test of truth; but either should set us upon testing our¬ selves-—Whatley. BAD WEATHER j^By^Menchew Macbeth CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX She found herself standing at the foot of the hickory-nut tree, her world one of complete dark¬ ness and desolation. In her heart she knew she was no bet¬ ter than Carl, for she had not been strong enough to help him win his fight against the forces of evil, and this knowledge only served to increase her feeling of despair. Anger was still in her heart as she leaned against the cold wet tree and could cry no more. Where is God? she tho’t *° ^ erse ^- Where is justice and the reward for humbleness, and patient suffering? Where Is anything that is good and sweet or beautiful? She threw back her head and looked up at the cold darlc sky—not feeling the w * nd cmdd easily bring the chi11 of death to her - neither did s ^ e care f° r the heavens them- blackness—and ^ Seemed „ s lost , w f“ forever. wed up The P modlca „ and , t brought a new wave of , anguish ... to , her for . she thought ____. . of ,, her two , . boys * . back . th ZZ “ ^ 1 f ep m . th ™ at , mise .. * ugly cold hut . with a crazv drunk man ___ ' And . . her . poor stumbling , ... ifeet slopped back toward thej sickly yeIIow light at the end of t be slippery trail. Suddenly a sound smo te her ear that caused be r blood to freeze in her veins -the sound of a hammer—he was naling the door shut to keep her from coming back! Sobbing f brokenly, she hesitated, gasping I breath. A new anger made strong as she put her shoul- der against the flimsy door and tore it open. Bursting into the| j made she do demanded, that way?” “What^ Hej you me looked at her without emotion and said in faint scorn, “ij thought you was gone?” “If it had been babies possible I would for have,” me to takC| she my answered, and added impulsive- ly, “I’m going in and get them now, I want a better life for us: than this,” and she started to- ward the bedroom, knowing it ( would be almost an impossibility for her to go anywhere tonight,; or any other time, with two big. babies and another one shortly ( to arrive. The determination in her voice caused a complete ( change to come over Carl’s drunken crazy face. The ugli- ness of a drunkard showed up in his red eyes and around his lips. He said in a quiet menac-^ ing tone, “No you’re not.” At the sound of his voice she stop- ped. “I’will—” she started to say when he cut her short, “You will not,” he said, and he stood up looking steadily at her. Sud- denly s h e knew that to argue with a drunk man about any- thing was playing with fire, wbere even tragedy might hap- so she sat down in the hard little rocker and put her face in her hands and suffered agonies to describe. Carl looked at her bowed head in utter dis- gust Women, he thought, were weak, no account snivelers—a man could do anything, anything with a woman. They were just plain no good—strange that a man could make any to-do over one—or stomach no-good com- for a lifetime. He smoked his cigarette with a superior scornful air and stalked out to the back door, stooping, he pull- ed. a fat whiskey bottle out from' under the edge of the house and drank freely, tossing it carelessly down by the fence in plain view,| his lips spread in a mirthless ( grin as he muttered, “I’d shore to see her righteous wrath when she finds that- He went back through the hut, hardly glancing at her still bowed head -he thought to himself, “Let her cry. I won’t hear it,” and went to bed. (To be continued) tffflg gft 000000 V -iLSLSLgJULflJLgJU FOR SALE SMALL HOUSE AND LOT IN TRENTON GOOD LOCATION MOVE IN NOW See H. F.
