JJne Railway Company, which have

were brought in from all divisions of
the Seaboard as they became obsolete
and unsafe for use until five or six
hundred of them were stored on the
tracks.
BEER CAN NOT BE SOLD
LECALLY IN GEORGIA
Those individuals and municipali
ties that are already selling beer, or
re planning to do so, will find they
are riding for u fall if the officers of
the law do their duty. By legisla
tive act and by supreme court de
cisions the sale of 3.2 beer is a crime
under Georgia law, and any subordi
nate authority that undertakes to
license such sales acts in open defi
ance of the law of the state. Two
Judges on Monday charged grand
jurors on their duty to enforce Geor
gia’s bone-dry law.
In Valdosta, Judge Thomas advis
ed the grand jury to indict every
person selling beer, and he warned
the jurors that they should not wait
lor some person to present a matter
etf law violation for attenion, but
that “the grand jury, under its
solemn oath, is expected to act upon
its own initiative.”

We are glad to announce that Col.
■J. C. Turner of Jefferson will be with
us next Sunday morning at the
preaching hour. Rev. Johnston will
be at Winder, and our people are
always glad of the privilege of hear
ing Col. Turner.
We told you a few weeks ago that
our community was going to begin
using powder and lead, so one night
last week, Mr. C. G. Barnett heard
* racket at his chicken house, and
grabbing his flashlight and gun he
expected to see someone cooping up
his chickens, but could not find any
one. After awhile, he located two
iihinning eyes, and let go at them.
The next day the good lady found a
large oppossum that had been the
cause of the disturbance, but he will
••at no more chickens. Chicken
thieves had better take warning. Our
community means business.
We are glad to state that all cases
of measles are getting along nicely.
Mr. Edgar Mahaffey left for train
ing for the forestry work Tuesday,
nd we venture to say that no com
munity will have a better representa
tive. ' Others near here may have
gone, but we have not heard at this
time.

Professor William F. Book, of In
diana University, in an experiment
on several thousand boys and girls
from 9 to 23 years old, found the
girls superior to the boys in all
language tests, including ability to
handle language forms, fill out un
completed sentences, etc. Dr. 1 rtd
eriek H. Lund, of Temple Universi
ty, found girls consistently superior
in language. Other experiments show
that ease of expression loads to
abundance of expression. All these
combined indicate women can talk
more and therefore do it. Who
ever heard of a “strong, silent wo
man?” A woman Calvin Coolidgo
would be inconceivable.
