About gix months ago, nine nriles

On Saturday, October Ist, the high

this identical nine miles, with the

$129,200.00.
live letters were written different
contractors to hid on this contract.
No: advertising of any kind, mind
you.
The federal government did. not
participate in the cost of either one
of the Ware county tar paving con.

Previously, the Herald-Journal
mentioned the tar paving in Morgan
county,
This contract was originally advar
tised as a federal aid proposition.
Some federal money was used on
the grading, but not one penny of
federal aid was used on an¥y of the
tar paving in this state.
The truth is the federal govern
ment does not recommend cheap as

bill, twice read before council, has
been approved by Mayor Charles E.

The bill provides that all equip

within five days after complaint has
been made to police, or the owner
will be subject to a fine of $25 on

ter on grounds with which they are
familiar pointed a finger at the
kneeling man and gave his decis
‘ion: “Not guilty.”
Several times the judge has cut
cards with prisoners of whose guilt
he had some doubt. His colleagues
recognize him as an authority on the
psychology of the negroes with
whom he often deals, :
Once, when a prisoner pleaded
guilty to a ininor offense, Judge
“Ab” directed him to get down on
his knees and pray for forgiveness.
A feeble voice came up.
“Louder!” directed the court. The
low tone went into a sturdy bass for
five minutes, and the prisoner was
discharged.
