Dotson, Feb. 1.—We are all
hoping the change of weather
will continue, as the farmers
have got to get busy if they
make & crop. We are ail hoping
the groundhog wilt fail to see
his shadow this year.
The roads around Dotson
are getting to be almost im-
passable in soma places. It does
not help the roads to try to fill
in the washouts aa it only
makes a nice place for some
motorist to stick. The . oads
have, no drainage except what
nature gave it, and it looks as
if we are doomed for a mud-
hole ever winter for a good
many years to come.
The Dotson basketball team
had their first taste of night
playing with the Gary team on
the latter’s court. The bright
lights must have put some kind
of jinx on Dotson star players,
the wore being: Dotson 51,
Gary 17. When the boys came
home they also had an idea of
their own. They at once set to
work to build a night court in
Dotson, and on Saturday the
night eoutt was put in com-
mission with the help of the
patrons. Mr. Henry Phillips
has agreed to furnish lights
from his Delco plant.

Stephens oil well Mo. 1, has

ward to than many sections.

and China have
depredation and war as their
ultimatum.
