Bessie Troutman, market master, stated Thursday that a Greenville, S. C„ man visited the Market Tuesday and declared the 'ocal market was much better than, tho one In his city. A writer for tho Southern Rurallst, agricultur al magazine, also visited the mar ket this week to get data on on nrtlcle and praised it y^nr much. humors, polgnnnces, high and low- spots, Is recorded with uncanny skill and genius Ih ‘‘Main Street’ which is tho feature attraction at the Palace Theatre Thursday and Friday. Florence Vidor and Monte Blue have the feat nro roles. “Main Street,” in the novel form by Sinclair Lewis, was tho most widely discussed book ev linked In Amerfra, not excepting even "Uncle Tom> Cabin;” It dealt with the life of the small town and aroused more comment pro r.r^ con than anything of ;ts kin 1. It is a long time since screen hns seen anything like tho ensemble of actors assembled In “Main Street”—a distinguished vast that gives dash and life to the action. Think of theso players all being In one picture; Florence Vidor, Monte Blue, Har/T’Myers. Noah Beery. Louise-Fazenda, Rob ert Gordon, Josephine Crowell, Cordon .Griffith, Otis Harlan and Alan Hal»*. The story Is familiar to many: Carol Kennlcott, her revolt against what she finds In Gopher PtalrlO. a Main Street town, her attempts to make it fit with the ideals she has acquired from hooka nhd college, her fight. The pleturo should be seen by everyone, for Main Street Is a little world, and the world Is composed of nothing hut . Main Streets. Praise Is dtie the able direction by Harry eanmont, and to'jiillen Joseph son, who wrote the scenario "Main Street" Is a great picture. TO PROBE AG. DEPT.

The final passage of a measure requiring Confedreatf Veterans to be given half fare on the railroads of the state and also one creating a bureau to aid the World War Veterans in securing government allotments, was effected. This measure provdies for a di rector to be paid twenty-four hun dred dollars annually and thirty- six hundred for the maintenance of the office. A bill to create a Forestry Board failed to pass the House by the required constitutional ma jority. Requests for an Investigation of two stat© departments—the depart ment of agriculture and the high way department—occupied a largo portion of the 1923 session. The blgbwny department Investl Ration was held and resulted In charges brought by Representative MeMlchacl, of iMarion, that tho di vision was guilty of mismanage ment, inefficiency and wasterful of public funds not being sustained. Mr. McMIchael, the only member of the legislative investigating committee not agreeing to the tna Jority report, filed n minority statement in support of his allegt tlons against the department. SECOND INQUIRY Tho - Inquiry this years Is the second held within three sessions 6f the legislature as a result of charges brought by Mr. McMIchael. Tho Investigation two years ago also resulted In an exoneration of tho. highwny department. \ Stewart began his fight against tho agricultural department early In the session. Prohibition appeared a« one of the principal subjects before the assembly for the first time in the past fey years, but front the be ginning It was renllzrtd by Dr. Craig Arnold, of Lumpkin, that his measure to repeal the state dry laws, thereby placing'pnforccment of the Volstead act In Georgia en tirely upon tho federal government would not lie passed. The bill Was reported unfavorably by tho house temperance committee, hut In speaking to a point of personal privilege Mr.'Arnold, who said he had never tasted whiskey. In his life, assailed the present enforce ment of the prohibition laws. The senate adopted a resolution condemning the Arnold measure, although the house committee re turned an adverse report and the spoken sentiment of the houte )nembers was against the-hill, a % resolution expressing confidence In j the Integrity of Dr. Arnold and ex pressing appreciation of hts sin cerity was adopted. BR VAN speaks Bills designed to reform_ U» state’s prison system were Intro duced in the house by Perrymah, of Talbot’. Sutllvd, of Chatham, and Covington, of Colquitt, and In tho senate by Pace, of the thirteenth. The measures did not reach the calendar, but Mr. Perryman served notice that they would be brought up again next year. Bennett, of Dodge, was unsuc cessful with his bill to restore tho lash In Georgia prisons. Ho charged that prisoners were being tor- tued In different camps in tho state since whipping had been abolished early this year by Gov ernor Hardwick. The prison com mission denied his allegations attjl took the position that tt did not wish tho lash restored. The bill J failed to get committee approval. The Ku KJux Klnn figured In measures Introduced in tho house and seriate. The measures were de signed, to .cause all secret orders tokjegister a list cf members with clerks of superior courts of coun ties in which they operate and to make the wearing of masks In pub lic unlawful. The house pudiciary committee approved the bill, hut the senate committee rendered an adverse report on a similar meas ure. Two new- judicial circuits, the Pledmon and Griffin, were created by the assoffthly. The proposed Bleckley circuit was defeated In the house. A. S.
