A camel can go nine daya without a drink. Atlantans have Just equaled this record, but they got a hump on themselves on the last night. The official corkscrew was manipu lated Monday afternoon, the official can opener was Inserted under the lid. Pop! Fizz! Cllnk-ity-cllnk! “There, that's enough. Here's hopin'." Earl^r m the afternoon the news had spread through the sober city that the weather man predicted a slight relief from the drought. Those who heard slid off their stools and Into their coats and hastened to get in line. Inside one of the favoiite emporiums of liquid luxuries there was a sound as or some one knocking the bung out. Through the key hole drifted the tinkle of glasses whose rims kissed lovingly In anticipation of the toasts to come. To the poet, whose survival through nine days had made him wonder If he had In previous Incarnation been a cat, a memory of another lover of the cup returned. He murmured: “Before the phantom of sweet memo ries died, Methought a voice within the tavern cried, ‘When all tjje toddies are prepared within, ‘Why nods the thirsty sufferer out side?' " “A*Waitin' at the Door. H But to the jostling crowd on the sidewalk who waited until the proprie tor could dust off his bar and put on a new apron the time seemed Intermina ble. Down the street a hand organ was playing and a monkey—a real monkey, for this was after a nine days' drought —begged for pennies. The watchers clung to their coin. It was once more worth while to have money. But some one caught up the hand organ's tune and the crowd sang: “Here am 1, a-waltln' at the door. Waitin' at the door, waitin' at the door. I’m goln* to have a dozen beers, or more— My, how it will upset me. By and by, the mayor'll send a note. Then we’II simply lloat, Jolly as a goat, Can't stay away, to wait another day, .My thirst won’t let me." Suddenly the sound of a key turning In the lock Interrupted the song. Back swung the door of llfe-satlng station number one. In rushed the parched and sun-dried ones to where the foun tain of fizz gave forth promise of plen ty. Then they hesitated. They didn't know what to order. .“All right, gents! Name It! Name it! What's yours, sir?" This from the white-aproned ones who are friends to all the world—with the price. They had already had their lift-saver. Visions of Bliss. The first man to reach the bar was undecided. Through his brain rushed a vision of gin rlckeys with sparkling bubbles. Juleps with emerald mead ows concealing a mine of Ice, cock tails with cherries red and green, tall foam-tossed schooners sailing across the bar. He collected himself with a Jerk and spoke. “Gl’mme a Manhattan, a Martini, four beers, a gin-fizz, a quart of bub ble water and a sack of salt and let 'em come all together," he chirped. “I’m here to stay till 10!" .The bartender eyed him In reproof. Then he set out a tall bottle of old bourbon, a glass and a chaser. “You'll drink straight whisky," he remarked. “What do you think I am? An octopus with a thousand arms? You get busy with that booze. There's others waitin'.” Soldiers Storm the Castle. At Broad and Alabama streets an East Point car stopped suddenly, and from both ends dropped soldier after soldier, clad In khaki, and all fum bling toward-their pockets. For a mo ment It looked like a riot, but It was only an attack on the fort In the next block. The news had reached Fort McPherson and us many as could get leave had rushed to the front. “I wasn't mindin’ goln’ to Cuby until now," remarked Sergeant Boggs Corporal Biggs, “but to leave now* would be desertin' in the face of the enemy. Let’s kill some more of the enemy. Fill ’em all up again, Char ley. We’ll be buyln* Cuban beer at fifty per In a week." From 6 o'clock to 10 the satoons were kept too busy to mix a drink. Noth ing but straight beer or whisky went during the rush hours, and every re quest for a fizz or a rlckey was frown ed upon and forgotten. When the clos lng hour arrived and the doors were once more closed one proprietor re marked to his white-clad assistant: “I’ll bet some of these cuburban fel lers that arrived too late for the big show will be roostin’ on the step In the inornln’. Well, It's been a good day after a long dry spell." But then— They will be closed tight again on Wednesday. 'Lection. DOCTRINE OF DEPRAVITY KEPT MINISTERS OUT OF E VA NGELICA L A SSOCIAI ION \ a belief In total hereditary de pravity an essential to membership In the Evangelical Ministers' Association? Does “total” depravity mean the same thing ns "utter” depravity, and what does either mean? Do the members believe in either or both? Those were the questions before the association Monday morning when the nnme of the Rev. H. K. Pendleton, pastor of the new Christian church, was proposed for membership. Dr. Pendleton rose and said: "Brethren, I have been placed In an awkward position. I have long want ed to Join your body, but your consti tution requires that I sign my name as subscribing to certain beliefs. Among them Is that I believe* In total heredi tary depravity. I don't. I can't do It." There was a long pause. The sec retary turned over the pages of the constitution and discovered that It was utter" and not "total" depravity. No body volunteered to expluin the dif ference. Dr. John E. White came to the res cue. He said: believe that the constitution meant no limitations of this sort. I don't regard myself as subscribing to anybody's Interpretation of our con stitution but my own. I have no doubt that our brother's belief on the doc trine of depravity Is all that could be desired, and I move his election.” And Dr. Pendleton was elected unan imously. The Rev. Bernard P. Smith, also pastor of a Christian church, rose and expressed a desire to become a member under the same circum stances. He, too, had been unable to subscribe to the doctrine of total he reditary depravity and breathed a sigh of relief as he was elected with out having to commit himself. “According to that constitution we shall have to call for an expression of faith from all our members," said Dr. J. H. Bakes, presiding elder of the dis trict. * “It is time for us to revise that con stitution." remarked Dr. George H Mack. “We ought to meet as minis ters of the city churches, without ask ing each other’s belief on this question of doctrine or that. I move a com mittee be appointed to look into the matter.” The committee will bo appointed, and hereafter no applicant for mem bership will feel bound by the hair that “divides, perhaps, the false and true.” COTTON IN ALABAMA OAMAGCDIO PER CENT, Specie l to The Georgian.
