High above deck, the lookout strains for a glimpse of
the ominous streak that a periscope makes as it cuts
sharklike through black waters.
Here at home, vigilant Georgians are on guard
against another kind of enemy. They are determined
to rid our communities of the irresponsible few who
exploit their business or profession with a selfish
disregard for the law.
In Georgia’s $10,000,000 beer industry, for example,
an effective method has been worked out for dealing
with the small minority of beer retailers who break
the law.
First, they are warned to clean up immediately.
If this urgent warning is not heeded, they are turned
over to your law officers to be closed up.
Only the reputable beer retailer deserves
reputable patronage. That’s how YOU can help.

REV. BETTS COMPLIMENTS
MRS. BRASELTON
Rev. B. L. Betts in his “Howdy,
Folks” column in the Hoschton
News, writing of the program spon
sored by the Jac-Bar-Nette Youth
Fellowship on the fifth Sunday
evening, says: “The climax of the
occasion was the address of Mrs.
John Braselton whose messages are
always good. I have never heard
Mrs. Braselton say anything un
kind about anybody. In thinking of
the talks she gives to her Sunday
School class here in Hoschton, I
search for understanding of why it
is that a multitude is not found in
her class. Her Christian spirit and
personality are like an oasis in the
desert, and may God richly bless
her labors. This week she is at the
Pastor’s School in Macon to learn
more of God’s will and kingdom.
That stay in Macon will be a great
help to us. In talking with Brother
John Braselton .he seemed clad "or
his good wife to be able to go to
Macon. That’s certainly good of
him. From such a home, is it any
wonder that John Oliver, Jr., has
been made president of the Young
People’s Department of Glenn Me
morial church at Emory Universi
ty?”
