Atlanta, Ga., July 25.—Yesterday's
aftermath after Saturday’s visit by,
the joint committee from tbp General
Assembly to the state prison farm
Is surcharged will highly sensational
developments.
It Is known the committee is In
possession of a mass of data bear
ing on the operation of the farm,
which can't hut lead to further reve
lations and which, It Is understood,
will go a long way to prizing the lid
off Georgia’s prison system as has
not been done since the old days of
the lease system, when convicts were
hired out like so many animals for
work In coal mines, In turpentine
camps and on large plantations where
they became nothing short of slaves.
It comes from every reliable sources
that the legislative commute.? is hold
ing conferences among its members
which have as their purpose ihe. In
troduction of rea-dutlnns to impeach
the entire state Prison Commission,
and that feature of the tense situa
tion may break in either branch of
the assembly today or tomorrow.
The investigation of conditions ai
the prison farm, which were found
Saturday to be “abhirent" is to be
continued this week by a special sub
committee, and out of that further u.-
Vestlgation details will be complied In
to a complete report of what the
committees find and their coramen-
tatlons.
A WEEK OF SPLENDID
PICTURES AT THE GRAND

day.
The Selnick special production "The
Blue Pearl," opens the week's pro

Law Enforcement in New York.
.New ’York is finding the enforce
meat of the Eighteenth Amendment
not 'only possible, but far from dif
ficult. All that was necessary to
change the experience of the city from
open violation of the prohibition law
to strict observance was the awaken
lng of a determination in the authori
ties to see that it was observed.
It required only a very few instances
to convince property owners of tbo
undesirability of permitting liquor to
be sold on their premises when they
were convinced that the law which
provided for a fine for such violation
also provided that the owner of the
property should be liable tor such
fines. They began at once to see that
it didn’t pay for them to run the risk,
and the business In selling alcoholic
materials dwindled at once.
The Institution of the regulation
that automobiles used for the trans
portation of liquor were subject to
seizure has also proved to be salu
tary. It has become an effective wea
pon In the hands of the police. If
the courts are persuaded to give effi
cient co-operation to the police New
York will have demonstrated that the
enforcement of the prohibition lav*
is entirely feasible and that failure
to enforce It is the result of luck of
desire to do so.—Evanston News-In

Sufficient Sleep Indispensable to
Growing Children.
No child nutrition worker, says the
U. S. Public Health Service, can
hope to get satisfactory results with
out insisting on enough sleep for her
charges. Besides damaging the ner
vous system, late hours cause “sleop
hunger” and make children nervous
and fidgety. The Service commends
the following precepts just issued by
the London County Council: School
children aged four years need twelve
hours sleep n day; aged five to seven,
11 to 12 hours; eight to eleven, 9
to 10 hours; and twelve to fourteen,
9 to 10 hours. Children grow main
ly while sleeping or resting, do you
want yours to grow up stunted? Tir
ed children learn, badly and often
drift to the bottom of the class, do
you want yours to grow up stupid
When children go to bed late their
sleep Is often disturbed by dreams
and they do not get complete rest,
do you want yours to sleep bafliy and
become nervous? Sufficient sleep
draws a childonward and upward in
school and in home li'e: insufficient
sleep drags it backward and down
ward; which way do you want your
child to go? Tiresome children are
often only tJred children; test the
truth of this. That a neighbor's child
is sent to bed late is not a *ood tea
son for sending your child lo bed
late; two wrongs do not make a right.
Going to bed late is a bad habit,
which may be difficult to cure: per-
serve till you succeed in curing it.—

Prohibltlon a Good Thing for the Race
Asserts New York Police
Commissioner.
During an Interview given out re
cently at the Ambassador Hotel, At
lantic City, N. J., hy Police Commis
sioner Enrignt of New York, accord
ing to the Atlantic City Gazette Re
view, he expressed his conviction that
“prohibition is a good thing for the
race." “Of course," be said, “there
are certain features of the prohibi
tion law that make it bard to en
force, but as time goes on the law
will be strengthened and the people
will vie with each other in observing
It. It already has Increased tremond

has reduced the crime t of violence. It

workmen, who are saving their mon

their famil'es, and who are laying
aside something for a rainy day.
“The fu ure beneti.s of prohibition

vated physical standard. Boys and

influence of liquor acquire and pass
on to posterity diseases which con

The generation now growing up.
and future generations, will know no
more of the liquor evil, than the pres
ent one knows of negro slavery.
“The home brew, which we hear
so much about right now, will soon
be obsolete. Many who are brewing
and distilling; in their own homes are
doing so because it is a fad, but they
will soon stop it—when the realiza
tion comes to them that the real test
of patriotism is obedience to laws,
whatever they may be. It will not be
long until every law-abiding Amer
ican will be as scrupulous in his ob
servance of the prohibition law as ho
Is of other laws. He will no mere
think of making, buying or selling
liquor than he does of stealing his
neighbor's money or murdering his
wife out of a spirit of covetousness.
“Those who are trying to cajole
Congress into liberalizing the '.resent
prohibition law so as to petmtt the
manufacture of beer and light wines
are wasting their effort. It will nev
er be done. Public sentiment will
not Btand for It. The vote of the
women—yes, and tjie men, loo, would
completely overwhelm and effort to-
word legalizing the manufacture or
sale of alcoholic beverages.’’

prisoner at the City Hospital here.
He has been severely and muchly
mauled but several hours after his
beating he was still under the Influ
ence of bust-head whisky or some
thing equally as efficient.
The negro on the road near Big
Creek church endeavored to pull
young lady from a wagon In which
she was riding after church. The
man who was in the wagon got out
Immediately and gave the negro the
worst sort of a licking, which was
added to when others came up. He
was drunk and for that reason, those
present thought be was unaccountable
for what he was doing. The Sheriff
brought him here- in a very much
lacerated condition and when he ar
rived he was still In a dopey condi
tion due to his much drinking.
