PROPOSED DRY LAW
A STRONG MEASURE
Provision of Proposed Bill
Given in Brief.
The Atlanta Constitution gives the
following summary of the proposed
Harris “bone dry’’ bill:
®To prohibit the shipment or bring
ing into the state by any person or
any means auy liquor whatsoever, or
any alcoholic compound, whether for
beverages or not, which can produce
intoxication.
To prohibit any concern or indi
vidual having in its or his possession,
at home or elsewhere, any liquor or
anything intoxicating whatsoever.
To the foregoing provisions are ex
ceptions enumerated below :
A druggist pharmacist or manu
facturer may import pure alcohol in
any quantity upon obtaining a per
mit from the county ordinary, the
application for which must set forth
upon oath the purpose for which the
alcohol is to be used and must bear
the endorsement of two reputable
citizens. Another shipment may be
secured only upon exhaustion of the
former supply and the presentation
to the ordinary of evidence such has
been used for the purpose for which
it was ordered.
Upon permit from the ordinary, a
church tnrough a minister, priest or
board, may, obtain sufficient wine
for the holy sacrament, hut may re
ceive only one such supply per month
In case of violation of the law. first
offense is a misdemeanor and second
offense is a felony.
The bill provides that the commis
sioner, of commerce and labor of the
state shall serve as prohibition com
missioner, for a salary of $1,200, and
that this salary would be provided
for adding ten percent to costs in
all convictions under this act. If
this additional ten per cent does not
prpvide sufficient money, the com
missioner of prohibition is the loser;
if it provides more than $1,200 per
year the balance goes into the state
treasury.
The former shipping law Is re
pealed.
The committee met immediately
after the adjournment of the confer
ence and made two amendment s to
rhe bill.
One of these amendments provides
for the confiscation of any property
or vehicle used for hauling of prohi
bited liquors, upon which conflsca
rion the said property or vehicle
shall be sold and the proceeds go to
the treasury of the oonnty In which
tl e case Is brought. This amend
ment is said to be directed against
automobiles and “mountain schoon
ers” doing a traffic in illicit liquors,
and is designed to make more effec
tive the provisions in the bill aimed
at wiping out illicit distillery prac
tices in Georgia. It is not canstrueu
to apply to railroads or common
carriers.
The other provision is that any
doctor licensed druggist or pharma
cist, who violates the provisions of
the bill, shall never again be eutitled
to practice bis profession or engage
in a similiar busiuess in Georgia.
This provision is directed at the pro
bability of the illegal dispensation o
liquors by prescription or In aoj
other manner through drug stores
or pharmacies.

LAYMAN’S MEETING
!A GREAT SUCCESS
Editor of Weslyean Was An
Enthusiastic Observer.
Rev. R F. Rakes, the Ass’t. Kditor
and Business Manager of Wesleyan
Christian Advocate, lias the follow
ing in this Week's issue of that
paper:
“1 went to Onrfersville on a Friday
night at flie invitation of brother .1
G. Logan, who was having a special
meeting of a large number of his lay
men looking to the making of his
“F.very Member Canvass.” He had
a varied program. The first thing
was whar he called “An Ec.desiast i
CAI Stunt” iu which lie illustrated a
visitot the “Missonary Commit,tee’’
ro a family in making tiie canvass.
If was true to life and was very
much enjoyed by the audience and
had a good effect. 1 commend it to
others. Write to him for the details.
I was down for an address on tbo
“•Necessity of Collections in Full,”
and gave them Mo best that 1 had
on that, arid the Church paper. A
reader of tiie Wesleyan usually
wants to make the i olleotion in full.
At the conclusion of the program an
elaborate banquet was served bv
the women of the Missionary Society
A note from Brother Logan says
that the canvass liehl n tne toll wing
Sunday resulted in more than the
total amount for the|Oouference hen
evokeuoes on that Church being se
cured in cash and subscription, and
the entire canvass was completed in
about three hours.
MRS. MARGARET HICKS

Aged and Long Time l<esi* !
dent of Bartow
Mrs. Margaret 8. Hicks died at her
Ihofiie near White, on the 3rd of
February,
Hire was horn in Lumpkin county
August 11, 1929 She came to tills
county with her parents when fom
years old, was raised by a widowed
mother, Su-au Viceut.
Haviug obtained a hope early in
life, she was united with the Metho
dist ohurcb at tiie age of IT, she whm
married to William J, Hicks in 184 U,
To them weie born two sons, one of
which survived her, She died full cd
years and full of the marks of the
blessed Lord, and with stricken sor
rowing hearts she was tende.ly con
signed to eartiiM last, resting place,
file quiet tomb. She was known far
and wide. It is well to mark the ett’
reer of such a woman Her life wa-i
a blessing, her end wan peaoe, not
a murmuring word or impatient look
was manifested during her illness.
As she lived a spectacle of faith, and
trust and resignation, and mingled
with our tears is the hope, yes the
sweet assurance of tier eternal jov,
She lived beyond life’s usual limit. So
It was fulfilled to her that she should
come to her grave in lull age, like
a shock of corn eometh in liar sea
son. The ripened fruit was Eieiug
gathered for the Master’s use.
The Lord has taken Ids own, and
and we must be stili and know that
tie is good. Death of ns all, is not
our enemy. By it we lay up trea
sures, where in God’s own time, we
shall find them again clothed in im

member the mighty decree: "1 will

from far and my daughters from the
ends of the earth.” All these the
blest woman, the mother in Lsrae
fVebiest Lamb iu th# fold with*
Him in puridise, and their sleeping
dust shall meet the coming Lord
when God’s last trumpet sounds, for
them that sleep in Jesus will God
bring with Him.
There is a calm for those who eep.
A rest for weary Pilgrims found;
They softly lie aud sweetly sleep.
