gt“ 1 CHECKING UP ON AUTOISTS. ‘ |
:* The state of Ohio has an inspection automobile law
! that is bringing into that state thousands of dollars
. annually that it would not get otherwise. Under the
. law, a number of inspectors is employed who go out
. daily on inspection tcurs, and where autoists are
~ found without the proper license plate, registration
. certiticates and ccrrect rating of their automobiles,
~ eases are entered against such offenders and fines
- imposed by the courts.
. Recently, in Cleveland, the inspectors paid a sur
- prise yisit to that city on a “check-up” campaign and
- halted 1200 cars. The inspectors reported as follows:
" “We found truck drivers operating on dealer’s li
censes, residents of Ohio using other states’ licenses,
( drivers of large cars using licenses issued for the
smallest cars. Nearly 95 per cent of those stopped had
, no registration certificates, and of these 10 per cent
, admitted that they had not had their license plates
' properly transferred. . . . . The state is'losing thous
ands of dollars by people operating their cars with .
. illegal licenses.”
i The campaign caused a ¢tir among the wutoists and
, those who were not caught in the net of the inspec- -
¢ tors, reported to the authcrities in order to prevent
| cases being made against them. Two hundred per
, sons apiplied for duplicate registration cards and 418 |
o _&etfi. iled application for permits to transfer their
- plates from old cars to new ones. Under the Ghio law
: Qq%h transfers are permitted on the payment of one
dollar. The fees for transtering plates from old to
. new cars amounts to. several thousand dollars an
- mually. '
+. A similar law for Georgia would, no doubt, add -
~ thousands of dollars to the treasury of the state,
begides givitig employment to a number of men and
women.

~_jewelers of Eurcpe are on the payroll of the Ameri

is enabled to locate the lcot buyers who are return
| ing their purchases under cover. The plan may be
a good one and the cnly one by which our authori
j ties can operate in order to catch the violators, but
it does seem to us that the jewelers desserve censure
'~ rather than praise and co-operation on the part of
-the officials.

A Little of Everything and Not
Much of Anything.
By HUGH ROWE
e
The many friends here of
Hamilton MeWhorter, Jr., of
Lexington, will ke pleased to
learn of his improvement from
an illness which has lasted
" for several months. .
Mr. McWhorter is now in At
‘anta, at the Piedmont Sanitarium,
where he is being treated for an
attack of arthritis. For several
weeks he was confined to his home
in Lexington and later decided to
go under the treatment of a spec
ialist. His improvement is very
gratifying to his numerous friends
and it s expected that he will be
sufficiently recovered to return to
liis home within the next few
weeks,
The success of University
boys is always a scurce of
much pleasure to the pecple
of Athens, who lock upon them
as their own boys. |
In the state primary held last
week, two outstanding University‘
boys were elected to state offices g
Both are biind, and for that rea
son, if for no other, Athens and
Clarke county people were ~+eat
ly interested. 'in their succes=.l
Walter MecDonald, of Augusta,
was re-elected & member of the
public service comniission by an:
overwhelming majority, and Lewis
Chick, of Monroe, was elected 23!
cne of the representatives of Wal
ton county in the general assem
bly.” Both men have many warm
friends here who offer congratule
tions on their success.
The circus its in town teday
and the children and grownups
are as happy as they ever get
to be.” Nct only for today, but
ancther circus is booked here
fer an early date ine Otcober.
There is something about 2]
circus that draws the people in'
greater numbers than any other,
form of amusement. The animalE,i
the music and the clowns contrib
ute a greater portion -of the
amusement and cause the hearts
of all little tots to beat with joy.
But while we are enjoyine the
circus, let us not forget to fortify
our homes against burglars by
locking the doors and bolting the
windows, and if possible have somec
one to remain on the lot or in
the house. Besides, remember
that a purse filled with
money or loose in the pocket is an
invitation to the pick-pocket to
rob. Keep in mind your wallet
and if you have a place to de
posit it, it will be safer in the
banks than in your pocket.
The Houston Post-Dispatch
reprints the following an
nouncenent of a west Texan
for the office of county attor

“To the Voters of Throckmorton

The Democratic
Party Has This
Claim On Demo
cratic Loyalty
' We hear lifelong Democrats an
nounce that the are “quitting the
barty only for a season.”
1q _'E}!ey propose to vote for the Ra
publican nominees next November
and after that they will return to
the party of their fathers.
{Scuthern Democrats who never
voted the Repudlican ticket in
‘their lives propose to become
}‘_‘tenmorar_v Republicans.” Dissat-
M;}fled with. theic party’s ticket,
+hey are going over into the ene
my’s camp to sojourn till the com
ing battle is over. Then, they tell
ug, they will come back home.
‘#But wi'l they? Can ‘they?
‘;E‘re they quite sure the “Wel
come” sign will be over tne door
when they return? Will the fact
that in & critieal hour they turned
egainst the party to which the
South has held allegiance for more
than sixty years be ignored after
the impending tattle is over?
‘We are not thinking of the at
titude of Southern Demccrats who
stick to the party, and who look
with sorrow on the disaffection of
their friends and neighbors who
arnnounce that in November they
vill mzch to the polls \under the
Republican banner. ‘
we are thinking of the North
:rn Democracy attitude. \
Consider the Dyer bill, just for
itlustration. ;
That measure, as every South
erner knows, was directed against
the South. It was the Republi
can party’s bid for continued Ne
gro support and sympathy in this
section. It was a sop to the col
ared brother. If it should become
the law of the land, the taxpayers
i 1 any county in which a lynching
might occur would e forced to
pay SIO,OOO to the family of the
mob’s vietim,
The mob might be made up of
wholly irresponsible persons, but
che mob itself would be ignored if
the Dyer :ill should become law.
I'he penalty for the mob’s law
lessness would come out of the
sounty treasury, and the money
would be paid by people in no wise
responsible for the mob’s crime.
And the act would be enforced, of
course, through the Federal
Courts. |
The Dyer bill was almost pass
ed. It tailed passage by the nar
rowest of margins, only because’
Northern Democrats in congress
threw the weight of their infiu
ence and votes against it. ‘
"They did what Northern Demo
crats have veen doing for sixty
yvears—they stood av tne South!
They began doing that right af
ter the Civil War. They did it
auring the Reconstruction Period,
of harrowing memories. They did
it when the Republican party was
seeking to enact force bills, which
would have brought Federa! bay
cnets to voting places in the South
on eclection days. They did it with
out having to be begged to do it,
when this Dyer bill was periously
near passage, and which President
Coolidge wou'd have signed with
out a moment’s hesitation,
For let it not we forgotten that
the 1928 Republican platform
pledges that party to continue to
use its utmost efforts to get this
pill, or another similarly inspired,
enacted into law. It is a Republi
can measure, and it is directed
specifically against the South.
If that bi'l becomes law, it will
be the entering wedge. A force
bill will be close on its heels.
Secuthernelections thereafter will
T held under the glint of Federa!
bayonets. g
To that program the Republican
party is definitely pledged.
To block that program, the
W’ for years has had both the
%fihflmnm; B i oAI & A
morzl and . aetivé, sympathy -and;
support of the Democratie party,
in the North. Rk rl
Suppose the South goes Repub
lican in November. '
Suppose the Demoeratic party
in this section throws the electoral
votes of Southern states to the
Republican party, in the most erit
ical election since 1876, thereby‘
defeating the Nerthern Democrat
who heads the party ticket.
What wi'l happen when South
ein Democrats, threatened again
with the Dyer bill, with force ills
and with other hateful anti-South
ern legislation that iz as certain
{» be offered and pressed for pas-.
soge as the next Congress is tol
meet, turn to the Northern Dem- |
ceracy with the familiar cry:
“Come over and help us, for we
are in danger!” gri
What, ,we say, will happen?
Could we blame Northern Demo
craty if they failed to respond?
Tha Demecratic Party is the
enly party filend the South has
ever had. It is the only friend it
has today! )
We are going to think a long
\ime before we fcrget what our
section owes it, an¢ turn our backs
unon it for no better reason thanl
that, for once, we have not been
zlie to have our way about every
thing the party program has con
cidered in this cne ecampaign.—

Methodist Women
Hit For Attack
On Gov. Smith
Charges that officers of the
Woman’s Missionary Society of
the North Georgia Conference of
the Methodist church are criculat
ing letters to local missionary so
cieties asking the members of the
lcoal societies ‘“‘to work against
the nominee for president, Hon. Al
Smith,” are made by Mrs. Mary
Jarrett White, of Tugalo, in a
letter sent to The Constitution
Saturday. On receipt of -this let
ter by the local society at Tugalo,
Mrs, White wrote a reply to the
district secretary, Mrs. W. B.
Richardson, of Lavonia, by whom
it was sent, in which she said the
local society “would disband” be
fore it would work against- the
democratic nominee, as requested.
Mrs. White wrote Mrs. Richard
son that she would never depart
from the democratic party and
said the local missionary union at
Tugalo would be disbanded beford
the members would permit it to be
used for the purpose requested by
Mrs. Richardson, the district sec
retary. }
l “And I hope that every other
missionary scciety in the North
Georgia conference will do the
same thing / rather than prove
traitors to the south,” Mrs. White
wrote Mrs. Richardson. "' °
~ Mrs. White declared that she 4=
now active in her support of Gov
ernor Smith ond said members of
her society resented sueh tactcis.
“Our little country church or
missionary society does not amount
to much in numbers or financially
but the few we have are true,
loyal democrats and have sense
encugh to know that ;Al Smith
could not bring back barrooms if
he wanted to, and also know that
nrohibition is not the real issue,”’
Mre. White said. ; |
Mrs. White’s Statement ‘
Her statement and letter to
Mrs. Richardson are as follows: ‘
“Editor Constitution:
“I regret that the church whic'n“
I love and that my people loved‘
has been dragged into th> ranks
of the enemies of the south. The{

HEART IS BLAMED FOR
- MANY ILLNESSES
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editer Journal of the American
. Medical Association and of
- Hygeia, the Heaith
Magazine,
From the ear iest times the
heart . has aroused the curiosity
and interest of man to an extent
equaled by hardly any:other organ
in .the human “ody, unless it is
the brain.
The human being wha is #ll
mentally is inclined to refer many
uriusual symptoms promptly to his
heart.
The heart has often been asso
ciated with the idea of courage.
as in the phrase ‘faint heart”
and the average man is likely to
speak ‘of others as weak-hearter
or strong-hearted.
The Pump of Life.
The mass of muscle, weighine
vsually just under a pound, lieing
voward the left side of the chest
c¢avity, has the prime duty of
Kkeeping the blood moving about
he “bedv. When, the ‘circulation
stops life stops with it. :
Before the time K of William
Harvey it was ‘helieved that the
heart was the seat of the sou',
ard that it sent blue h“lood out
ward along the veins and real
Ilcod outward along the arteries.
Later came the knowledge that
the heart sends the arteria! blood
