march i«, im THBITAHDARP, CEDARTOWN, OA. PAGE NINE* Continued from Page 1. Jury Presentments. People of >11 classes are indulging in profligate extravagance and every conveivable form of pleasure. Joy rides in automobiles during the late hours of the night are producing a fearful crop of evil. The jazz dance, with all of its demoralizing effects, is damning thousands; blind tiger whiskey is claiming its victims aqiong both sexes and filling our jails with culprits. Lawlessness seems to be the order of the day, and it looks as if we are on the toboggan slide to nat ional decay. We may snap our Angers in the face of warnings and think we can travel at this rate forever. So thought an cient Corinth, Babylon, Nineveh and Thebes, but their brazen gates and gilded palaces have crumbled and their very monuments arc but as the dust they were vainly intended to commemorate, and unless we call a halt, “Ichabod'' will be written across our doors. We may legislate against these e- vils and call upon the courts to im pose heavy sentences, and these things may help, but what this coun try needs, in our judgment, is an old fashioned revival of religion that will bring the fathers and mothers to their knees and bring about the re establishment of home ties, build up homes that will radiate pure and elevating Christian influences, where love is the dominating factor. Then, and not till then, may we look for much improvement among our young people. In our opinion the two out-stand ing factors in bringing about the present unhappy state of affairs that pervade our social system are the desecration of the Sabbath day and the breaking down of the old-fash ioned home, and we call upon our churches and our courts to “cry a- loud and spare not," until these evils are corrected and sanity is restored among the people. We your committee appointed to examine the books of Ordinary, beg to submit the following: We find all books that we looked into neatly and as far as we know correctly kept. . „ E. C. Clements, G. W. Brock, E. C. Kingsbbery, Committee. We wish to extend our thanks to Hon. F. A. Irwin, Judge, and Hon. J. R. Hutcheson, Solicitor General, and Solicitor J. A. Wright for their many kindnesses and assistance to The Grand Jury during this term of Court. Signed, R. W. Hamrick, Foreman; F. N. Browne, Clerk; L. T. Peek, T. L. Nunn, E. C. Clements, L. S.

Ordered that within General Pre sentments of Grand Jury at this term of the court be spread upon the minutes of this court as such, and that recommendations therein con tained be carried into effect by the proper authorities. Feb. 9th, 1922. F. A. IRWIN, J. S. C. T. C. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES. Exhibit A. We, your committee appointed to look over and investigate conditions on the Pauper Farm, beg to submit the following report: We find four inmates, two white men and two col ored women. The inmates say that they are well cared for. The men are blind and the women seem to be very feeble, and one in bed. The buildings are in very bad condition, but seem to be neatly kept. We also looked over the cemetery and find twenty-five graves, some of them badly caved in, and most all of them only marked with only small wood stakes or pieces of plank, and badly grown up with briers and oth er growth and in a dilapidated con dition. Mr. Ledbetter, the caretaker of the Farm, we believe is doing the best he can with the means at his command, and in our honest opinion under present conditions the Pauper Farm is a disgrace to our county. We would suggest that the Com missioners of Roads and Revenues of Polk countv sell the property, reserv ing two acres for a pauper cemetery, and purchase a tract of land not lesB than seven or more than fifteen ac res, and have some suitable buildings erected thereon for better caring for these unfortunate inmates. Pauper assessments $7,931.76 Disbursements $4,627.98 Money on hand $3,403.78 Paul Montgomery, J. S. Davidson, R. K. Brumbelow, Committee. Exhibit B. We, the committee appointed to examine the records and affairs of the Clerk’s office Polk Superior and City Courts, beg to submit the fol lowing report: We have examined the records and - the system employed in this office, }and find that they are kept in an or- ‘ derly and systematic manner. We ' find that there is no accumulation of unrecorded papers, and that same are handled promptly and current wo’-k properly disposed of. Unon further investigation, owing has been In use for a great number of years, the same has become great ly worn and abused and in our judg ment a more modern system ought to be installed, and we respectfully ask that the Board of Commissioners of Roads and Revenues look into this matter. We further find that no public funds were handled by this office, and this is further set out in the Auditor’s report. We wish to convey to Mr. C. N. Morgan the thanks of the Committeo for his assistance n tfco examination of the records of hla office. In this connection we will state that we have boon informed that Messrs. Bunn & Trawick some time ago purchased the Index Record formerly owned by Mr. J. R. Barber, and that these records can be bought at very reasonable figures, consider ing their great value and the amount of labor inolved in making them. As these records give a complete index of all land transfers, beginning with Book A, up to and including Book M, the modern index bystem adopted some years ago in the Clerk’s office begins with Book N, and if the coun ty owned the records above referred to, there would be a complete, un broken record up to date. We sug gest that our Board of Commission ers look into the matter and consid er the advisibility of purchasing these records for the use of the coun ty. E. L. Henderson, Chairman, J. F. Wright, L. S.
