these measures the house and senate
ratified the national prohibition
amendment to tne constitution on the
opening ay of the session, thus get
ting it out of the way and placing
Georgia once again emphatically on
record for the abolition of the liquor
traffic.
Then the house took up the bill
enabling Georgians in*the service to
vote in state and local elections, and
this bill is now pending in the senate
as a war measure.. Among the other
important war measures yet to be
acted on are the bill enlarging the
powers and increasing the appropria
tion of tiie State Council of Defense,
and the bill requiring all able-bodied
men between the ages of 18 and 58
years to work at least five days In ev
ery week.
The latter measure is intended to'
relieve thel abor shortage by compell
ing all men to put in full time work
every week. A great many laborers
pre earning enough in three days
to live on six days, and they refuse
to work more than half-time.

SUGAR QUESTION

EVERYONE SHOULD CONSERVE
AS .MUCH AS POSSIBLE UNTIL
SHORTAGE IS RELIEVED.
Atlanta, July—“How do wc stand
on sugar?" The question must be
answered every day for then ext six
months by every consumer and thous
ands of them are now being propound
ed to the offices of Dr. Andrew M.
Soule, federal food administrator.
In answer to a similar query a
member of the English Parliament
said, “There is no prospect of any
improvement in then ational stocks
of sugar so long as the war contin

means that sol <fng as the war con
tinues it is likely that the Allies will
be on a meager sugar ration and
America on a short allowance.
An improvement in shipping condi
tions would of course relieve the sit
uation but distribution from now un
til the new crop comes in must be
based on the sugar in sight and not
on probable supplies. Facing the
facts, the Food Administration has
restricted ( the allowance of sugar in
less essential food products in order
to maintain a monthly ration of 3
pounds to consumers and provide
sugar for both commercial and home
canning.
In the plan of distribution which
was put in force July 1, manufactur
ers of candy, softd rinks, tobacco,
wine and such less essential products,
were cut to 50 per cent of normal
requirements. Ice cream makers
will be allowed 76 per cent and
ners of ruits and vegetables 100 per
cent. No sugar can be sold to man

proprietors of eating places except

Administrator indicating the quanti

If thes ugar is available, home can

With the hearty cooperation of the

Gargoyles of Notre Dame.
Visitors to the Notre Dpme cathe
dral in I’aris are more apt to remem
ber the gargoyles ornamenting the ex
terior of the building than the wonder-
fnl galleries and arches Inside. In fact,
they are apt to remember them when
waking In the middle of the night or
just after turning off the electric
lights. They ore lobster supper night
mares come true, hobgoblins of nursery
days. They gaze down from grotesqua
postures, grimacing with delight at
their victims.
One peculiarly awful creature perch
es on a balustrade of one of the tow
ers. In his claws he clatches wbat
appears to be a baby gargoyle, chewing
the unfortunate little creature’s head
with unmistakable relish. Meanwhile
Ills eyes wander over the dty with a
dreamy, contented, faraway gtss quite
horrible to behold.
The Universal Art
