A HEARTY WELCOME
Thomasvllle witnesses s unique
meeting this evening at the Methodist
church, when several hundred mem
bers gather In an Informal way to
offer greetings and hearty welcome
to the men, who will lead them during
the coming year. The spirit mani
fested has been fine and the men, who
coming to Thomasvllle will
doubtedly feel the genuineness of the
welcome and the co-operative spirit
that is manifested.
The Tlmes-Enterprlse can Join most
cordially In this welcome. The press
4ts mission, separate and distinct
from the pulpit and yet the two can
stand on common ground In many
as, and the Influence of the press
i, and sbonld, naturally be exerted
toward the promotion of the work of
the church. Most newspapers are
glad of the privilege and opportunity
for this form of service, and the Tlmes-
Enterprlse especially so.
These ministers are added forces
for good, men whose lives have been
devoted to service for the Master.
Their work here does not depend
their resources of ability, primarily. It
Is to be measured by the willingness
and cooperation that la manifested by
the congregation. When a church
congregation forgets Its obligation, the
church Is not able to perform lti
mission. We hope that the new year
the church’s work will be mor
lifting and more generally felt than
ever before.
TREE PLANTING TIME.
Thomasvllle Is planting two
dred trees this month, perhaps many
, Every street In the city, where
there are no trees, or where om
died, will have a live oak or a dogwood
tree planted. This tree will be small,
of very little value now, and of prao
tically no beautifying value. It Is
merely a long, rather unimpressive
pole on the street
Yet within ten years this will have
become a wonderfully beautiful,
i tree that win prove most de
lightful and attractive la every way.
Tree planting la done for the future.
Men with vision look ahead and plan
ahead, and It Is by this process that
There was no use arguing for
wines and beers, when Georgia’s law
was so tight that nothing c-uld get la
or out legally. The governor has
opened the way for a discussion that
brings the matter down to Georgia, to
people and our Legislature. When
we go that far there is something do
ing, something that will put another
light on the whole matter.
Undoubtedly Mr. Hardwick baa pro
pared the way for some stirring times
In the state. The result will probably
be null and void, as far as the hopes
of the promoters are concerned. Geor
glans haved't gone far enough back
ward to believe that the wedge should
be opened. Georgians saw what laxi
ty of law meant In greater laxity ol
enforcement and they bad to clamp
down as tight as human agencies
could Invent for the purpose of pre
venting a wholesale outcropping ol
law violations.
Hardwick la opening the way for

thing that Georgia has been freed of
for several years. We hope it won’!

political shuttlecock by aspiring poli

in the past
THE FUSS ABOUT LIQUOR.
Nlne-tentha of the people of the Uni
ted States, those* who ttfldt prohibi
tion and the most ardent wets, worry
a good deal whether there is to be
whisky or not While the wets beg
for a modification of the law that
will permit light /wines and beer the
determined drys aid the controversy
by opposing the plea, evidently with
the belief that they must buckle on
their armor and rush forth to defend
their side of the question. The result
is one that precipitates a constant
wrangle between those for intoxlcanti
and those against them. It la i
stant fuss over liquor, and there la
none to say when or where it will
stop—if it ever does.
The question of liquor haa become
International through the ruling of
Attorney General Daugherty that Am

at all, and that foreign vessels
not come Inside the three-mile limit

The truth of the whole matter
that humanity would be much better
off if liquor ceased tobe. Sciencehas
off If liquor ceased to be. Science has
established Indisputably tbe fact that
liquor is not a food. Everybody knows
that It does more harm than’ It does
good. Down In Braxil there Ip a big
ger Ufct of fatalities from tbe %ttes of
venoipous reptiles than anywhere else
In the world. The foremost scientists
there, after an investigation covering
long period ot years, declare that
whisky and brandy are not cures for
snakebite. On the other band, they
agree that liquor not only falls to do
the victim good but does him harm.
This would seem to dispose of the
theory, held for many generations,
that a big drink of whisky is proof
against the bite of a rattlesnake, cop
per head moccasin or other venomous
reptiles indigenous to this country.
It now begins to appear that njost
persona at all familiar with tbs po
tency of liquor recognise that Its pow
er Is almost wholly exerted in the di
rection of evil Instead of good,
deed, the world would be better off
without It entirely, but the mere state
ment alone will In no way affect the
constant wrangle over It Both sides
to the controversy are pastmasters at
starting propaganda and at beeping
it going.—Dawson News.
