LIQUOR LAWS GO IN
EFFECT MONDAY, MAY 1.
Thf Most Drastic Ever Written and
/ VMM Make Present Prohibition
Resemble Tropical Rainy
Season.
Georgia’s new prohibition laws, the
most drastic ever written, will go
in effect next Monday, May 1.
The drought that is commonly sup
posed to have prevailed in Georgia
since the present prohibition law
went in effect on January 1, 1907,
has been like the rainy season in the
tropics compared to the drought that
is coming.
The new prohibition laws are real
prohibition laws, and, if enforced, are
.going to make this state as dry as
the Sahara desert when it comes to
whiskey, wine and beer.
They are written with the intention
and for the purpose of abolishing ab
solutely the use of intoxicants except
by private individuals in their own
homes, aßd they go further and un
dertake to limit .the quantity to be
consumed by the individual on his
private premises.
Going into minute detail, the laws
wrap themselves around the whole
subject of the sale and use of Whis
key, wine and beer, like the yarm is
wrapped uround the core of a base
ball. They leave nothing to be decid
ed by inference or discretion, but
on the contrary they specify, with
utmost particularity, everything that
shull be done and that shall not be
done, so far as the lawmakers could
possibly anticipate. Not only are
the laws the most complete ever
written ’ from the prohibitory stand
point, but they are the most elabor
ate ever written from the standpoint
of mandatory provisions applying to
officers charged with the duty of law
enforcement.
Prohibition That Prohibits.
Proceeding on the theory that the
pecple of Georgia want prohibition
that prohibits, the legislature gave
it to them; and the new laws will af
ford the people an opportunity to de
termine to what extent they are wil
ling to practice temperance. If tbf
people want temperance Of the total j
abstinence variety, the laws will give
it to .them, —or come us near givij g
it to them as, |Uty laws cau.
The Winder News, Thursday, April 27,1916.
The laws are three in number, to
wit:
First, the omnibus law.
Second, the shipping law.
Third, the advertising law.
UNCLE SAM WANTS TO FIGHT.
- : •' "• —"
The United States lias begun a
fight against ignorance. The best
people of the country have already
realized that the greatest detriment
to our country is illiteracy. In ev
ery city we . find classes of people
work for a small pittance because
they are not prepared to command
better salaries. Meager salaries
breed crime and theft. Seventy-five
per cent of the crimes and theft com
mitted in our country today is by tin
class of people who are not educated
io know the real meaning of their
acts. Others are driven to steal on
account of poverty. Clear our coun
try of ignorance and we will have a
people who w ill do us credit as a

;nd .one that is eing more and more
■ alizejl is the ommercia.l Education
Pur young pe< ie are learning mod
ern business -methods before they

surgeon learns the anatomy of the
body before he attempts an operation
The lawyer studies law before lie
takes |a case in court, in fact, one
must learn any profession before he
call handle it successfully; and this
is especially true in the. commercial
business. Unless one knows tbe
principles of business he can not
hope to; be successful.
A business Education is the cheap
est and < yuicjteefit education that, a
young man or lad can get, and it
uuyij the .largest dividends on the cost
of any investment that can be made.
It is a mistaken idea that there are
too many bookkeepers and stenogra
phers. The business offices of our
country are greatly embarrassed lor
tiie lack of efficient help. The gov
ernment is daily calling for more
help in the clerical department at
good salaries.

want to succeed, and are willing to
give 'a feW months of their time* to
preparation, do rfo better than
