The opinion was rendered in pro ceedings resulting from the arrest of Homer Gudger, at Lynching, Va M un der the law while on route on a passen ger train from Baltimore, Md., to Ashe ville, N. C. The federal district court dismissed the indictment against him holding in effect that although carried across a state, intoxicants are not “transported” into the state if their ultimate destination is a point beyond the limits of that state.

F. BROWN, Ordinary. 1 Heaven Pity the Shirker. I The man who shirks his work, who! treats the service of labor with indif ference, who sacrifices his efficiency on the altar of self-indulgence, loafs on his job and plans to see how little he can do and not be caught, is to be the most pitied man on the face of the earth. lie thinks he is cheating his em ployer. But the employer is not the man he is cheating. Far from it. He is cheating himself. More than cheating I himself. He is assassinating oppor portunity and paving the way to utter ruin and disgrace. The man who accomplishes anything in this world, the man who amounts to anything worth measuring is the man upon whom dependence can be placed. It does not matter what the task is, big or little, every man is measured by the degree of his respon sibility. The man who cannot be trust ed with labor for which he is honestly paid is just as desplicable as the man who refuses to pay for labor honestly performed. The shirker is essentially dishonest. Unfaithful to himself, set ting the bomb that will sooner or later send him to poverty, he is a menace and an abomination. The stories of heroism that shift home with the troops are encourag ing to Americans. When put up against the best trained army of the world the doughboys went through the line and kicked goal. M. R.
