LOOKING BACKWARD
J. A. DARR, Editor. D. M. CULLEY, Bus. Mgr.
“Faithful to the Right, Fearless Against the Wrong”
Vol. 1 Rising Fawn, Ga., Thursday, May 2, 1879. No. 25
July 17, 1879.
“Sic Transit Gloria Mundit,”
that is the subject of the oration
delivered by H. K. Allison at the
closing exercises of the District
High School at Trenton, on May
22.
For delivery of this oration,
which was the most excellent
address given in the oratorical
contest, Mr. Allison was award¬
ed a gold medal.
Editor Darr features the ora¬
tion on the front page of The
Gazette.
Mr. Allison in later life proved
his ability as a speaker, by be¬
coming a leading minister of the
Methodist church.

Bathing.
Believing that “Cleanliness is
next to Godliness,” Editor Darr
preached this in his pulpit and
also editorially.
He writes as follows: “Cleanli¬
ness is next to Godliness.- I do
not think an individual can be
physically unclean and pure.
One of the greatest causes of
skin disease is the lack of the
use of water. There are at all
times and under all circumstan¬
ces a shedding of the epitheli¬
um of the skin, and if one does
not bathe regularly the pores
become closed, and a hard, dry,
scaly skin develops.
All you need is a warm room
and a few gallons of water,
some soap and a sponge. It re
quires no skill to use them, and
it certainly does preserve the
-health.
I remember hearing a doctor
tell a patient to take a warm
bath. The patient afterward
said: “That’s the first water
that has touched by body for
16 years.”
The man that does not wash
himself oftener is a brute.

Gleaning From Exchanges
Forty bushels of wheat to the
acre is about the average of the
present splendid wheat crop in
Georgia.—Scottsboro Citizen.
Armstrong, you ought to know
that is not so.— Darr.
A good natured hen has made
her nest in the fireplace in the
office of the Morristown Ga¬
zette. She is probably the prop
erty of some delinquent sub¬
scriber, and her conscience will
not permit her to eat the grain
of a master who has not paid
for his paper. We are not sur¬
prised at the conduct of this
hen, the wonder to us is, that
the very rocks don't cry out a-
gainst delinquents.

Morganville Letters
My Dear Editor:
I received your postal card of
July 10, asking for my long neg¬
lected arrears to your paper.
Well I did not get mad or in¬
sulted about it, for I think I am
coming off well about the debt.
Instead of being visited by a
special agent, or an officer, and
perhaps having to talk a good
deal and give them a dinner or
watermelon, I got off with a
polite dun; Mid I can't say I
object much to its being sent
on a postal card, as the public
generally knows more about
your own business than you do.
I am not mad, either, for I know
that a printer must be paid oc¬
casionally, for he must eat like
humans do, either at home or
visiting his neighbors or kinfolk
when he gets too hungry.
I am sending herewith the
“kale seed" for subscription, al¬
so a few news items.

Moral Character
if Editorial
There nothing which adds,
much to the beauty and power of
a man, as good moral character.
It is his wealth, his influence,
his life. It dignifies him in ev¬
ery station, exalts him in every
condition an dglorifies him at
every period of life. Such a char¬
acter is more to be desired than
everything on earth.
It makes a man free and inde¬
pendent. No croaking sycophant
or treacherous honor-seeker ev¬
er bore such a character.
The pure joys of truth and
righteousness ever spring in such
a person.
If a young man but knew how
much character would dignify
and exalt him, how glorious it
would make their prospects even
in this life, never would we find
yielding to the groveling and
base born purposes of the vi¬
cious.
Young men, be strong in the
right; courageous in your fight
against evil; champion the rights
of the humble and poor; uphold
the dignity of the law; be loyal
to your-church, your family and
your God, and you will indeed
be a MAN. i ;
is the Dade County High School.
Let’s all turn out to hear Shorty
Bradford and the Homeland
Harmony Quartet for grand en¬
tertainment, and pay our admis¬
sion gladly, knowing that others
will also be entertained by the

iNew Exclusive Food
Store Opened For
Business Monday
Tatum and Scruggs, who open¬
ed an exclusive food store in the
rear of the Dyer Merchantile
building, on Monday of this week
and are now serving the public
with a high quality of groceries,
choice meats, high grade feeds,
etc- in a most satisfactory man¬
ner. The store is entirely one
of self service, except for the
dispensing of meats.
The young proprietors, both
of whom served their country
efficiently and honorably during
the late world war, need no in¬
troduction to the citizens of Dade
County.
Montford Tatum, the son of
the late W. N. Tatum and Mrs.
Tatum; and Newell Scruggs, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. W. A.
Scruggs, are native sons of Dade
county, and their integrity and
ability as young business men,
is known and appreciated by our
citizens throughout the coun¬
ty.
Tatum & Scruggs’ food market
is the only exclusive food store
in Dade county. Their beautiful
new store room, furnished in
white with new and modern
shelves and other fixtures, and
lighted by a number of large
flourescent lights, makes the
store most attractive.
There are few counters, but
instead, these progressive young
food dispensers have installed
a number of food baskets moun¬
ted on wheels, and the store is
so arranged that any customer
who so desires may take their
time in leisurely selecting the
articles of food they desire.
Tatum & Scruggs are also car-
tying a line of Iresh vegetables,
1 fruits arid . « many ______ j,___ other items
found only in the larger city
food markets.
These young" business men
will devote their entire time to
their business, and we predict,
with hundreds of their other
friends, that they will be won¬
derfully successful in their new
and exclusive food store.
Watch The Dade County Times
for advertisements of their
“specials” during the week ends.

NUMBER 13.
National Democratic
Party Says Thompson
Head In Georgia Now
Recognizing Governor M. E.
Thompson as head of the Demo¬
cratic party of Georgia in his
battle against those who partici¬
pated in the “November bolt,”
the National Democratic Com¬
mittee has removed Edgar Dun¬
lap, Talmadge supporter, as
chairman of the Jefferson Day
Committee, and designated State
Treasurer George B. Hamilton to
the place on Mr. Thompson’s re¬
commendation.
The recognition of the Georgia
Chief Executive as head of the
State party had been forcast
ever since the historic Supreme
Court decision that branded as
unlawful the seizure of the Exe¬
cutive Offices by Herman Tal¬
madge, after an illegal “election”
by members of the legislature.
Spokesmen for the Harris-
Talmadge- Peters machine,
which sought to legislate itself
into supreme power through a
repeal of all primary laws, made
sharp retorts to the announce¬
ment by Executive Director Gael
Sullivan and Treasurer George
Killion of the National Commit¬
tee. Said Herman Talmadge:
“We don’t give a dam what
Washington thinks about it.”
Mr. Hamilton was recommend-
de for the post by Governor
Thompson, National Committee-
nam E. D. Rivers and Naitonal
Committeewoman Virginia Pol-
hill Price.
Capitol observers expected a
lively political battle for control
of the State party. The Harris-
Talmadge-Peters group will be
assailed as “bolters” because of
the candidacy of Herman Tal-
nominee a ! for al “‘ Governor I' Dem V in' °"f x946. c -
The announcement of national
party recognition for Governor
Thompson's leadership, however,
did much to obtain a rapid settle¬
ment of the controversy. Geor¬
gia has never “bolted” the
National Democratic ticket, it
was pointed out.
EASTER PRAYER
Almighty God, who through
thine only-begotten Son Jesus
Christ hast overcome death, and
opened unto us the gate of ever¬
lasting life; We humbly beseech
thee that, as by thy special grace
preventing us thou dost put into
our minds good desires, so by
thy continual help we may bring
the same good effect. Amen.
“Christ being raised from the
dead dieth no more; death hath
no more dominion over him. For
in that he died, he died unto sin
once; but in that he liveth, he
liveth unto God. Likewise reck¬
on ye also yourselves to be dead
indeed unto sin: but alive unto
God through Jesus Christ our
Lord.” Romans vi. 9-
