the state was made by Mr. Cravey
after numerous sportsmen complain
ed of the long delays in the past in
obtaining licenses after they had
made application. The new system
also saves the sportsmen the ex-
I pense of postage.
In announcing the new system of
license sales, Mr. Cravey added that
he wishes to express his apprecia
tion to the thousands of Georgia
sportsmen who are cooperating in
such a fine manner in the state’s
new program. Every indication
points to a banner year for the hunt
ers. All forms of wildlife is said
to be more plentiful this year than
in many seasons.
Mr. Cravey’s only request was
that each hunter abide by the state
laws, be a clean sportsman on all
occasions, exercise . utmost precau
tion with firearms and be careful
with fire.
SCALDING HOGS
A 50-gallon barrel may be used
for scalding when killing hogs on
the farm, say Extension specialists.
Use a thermometer and be sure that
the temperature of the water is be
tween 142 and 150 degrees Fahren
heit. Tffis gives a slow scald and
removes all danger of setting the
hair.

READJUSTMENT TO BRING
PROBLEMS, COMMISSIO NE R
OF LABOR TELLS MEMBERS
JACKSON KIWANIS CLUB
Hon. Ben T. Huiet, Commission
er of Labor, told members of the
Jackson Kiwanis club Tuesday night
that postwar readjustment will pre
sent a real problem to the nation.
Now is the time to prepare for that
period, he said.
Geared to tremendous defense ef
fort now, he estimated that by 194 G
more than 60 million men and wo
men would be employed in defense
industries. When the war closes in
dustries will return to a peace time
basis and labor will have to be ab
sorbed in other work. It presents
a challenge, Huiet declared.
He criticised labor strikes by de
claring, “I do not believe under our
Democratic form of government
that any person or firm in this coun
try who strikes or causes a lockout
in time of emergecy on defense
work or anything that would aid the
defense of our country deserves to
ask protection under the American
Flag.”
Mr. Holbrook and M. E. Wade
were visitors and dinner was served
by the Hawthorne Garden Club, Mrs.
J. A. Gaston chairman.
