Medical Piactice Bill Passes
in Amended Form
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 9.—With the gal
leries filled with medical men from all
parts of the state, the house at the
morning session yesterday passed the
medical practice bill, previously pass
ed by the senate. The final vote tvas
131 to 3.
But it did not pass until an import
ant amendment, offered by Mr. Connor,
of Spalding, which cures the greatest
objection to the measure, had beeir
adopted. It so happened that Repre
sentative Hardeman, of Jefferson, was
in the chair when this amendment
came to a tie, 64 Jo 64. Thereupon
Mr. Hardeman voted aye, carrying the
amendment, increasing the member
ship of the board to ten, adding one
eclective and one homeopath.
This means that the state board as
now constituted, will be composed of
five allopaths or regular school, three
eclectics and two homeopaths. This
no longer gives the allopaths supreme
power on the board. This was the
feature meeting with the strongest
opposition, and while scores of efforts
were made to amend the bill in other
particulars, practically none were
adopted.
Moved to Table It.
The fight began with a motion of
Mr. Slater, of Bryan, to table the bill
for the session. His reasons for this
motion were brought out, as follows
“Don’t you think this bill will be
willed, if voted on today?” asked Mr.
McMichael, of Marion.
“I do,” replied Mr. Slater.
Mr. Blackburn jumped into the
breach and opposed the postponement.
“Wasn’t this bill set for action by
the rules committee?" he was asked.
“It was,” he replied,” and the com
mittee did so because it thought the
bill of the utmost importance.”
I “Wouldn’t tabling this bill be a re
flection on the rules committee?” som.3
one wished to know.
“Oh, well, as for the hides of mem
bers of the rules committee, they are
j tough,” replied the vice chairman,
“and they don’t mind.”
On an aye and nay vote, the Slater
motion was defeated, 83 to 60.
Increased Number on Hoard.
It was agreed to take up the bill
section by section, and Mr. Connor s
I amendment to section one was the first
voted on. This increased the number
! on the board and was adopted by the
jVote recorded above. Immediately a
motion was made to reconsider a•-
i .
, tion on this, but it was defeated, 84
( to 68, showing that the house ex
| pected to stand pat on this idea.
Then began a bombardment ot
amendments to each section as reach
led. They were killed as fast as the
1 count could be made. After this line
, had been proceeded along for some
time, a motion to consider the bill as
a whole carried, resulting shutting
off all the amendments except those on
thee lerk’s desk. Both Dr. Stovall, of
; Elbert, and Mr. Wisdom, or Forsyth,
accused Mr. McMichael, of Marlon, of
’ ' irrying amendments up to the desk
f“v this action, but their points were
ruled out as incorrect. A call for the
-revious question was sustained. 105
to 45.

HAVE YOU SOMETHING
TO SELL? -:- -:- -:- -:-
If so, do you tell the publlo
about it? If you do, how do
you do it?
And what sort of reputation
is back of the merchandise you
are offering?
The answers to these ques
tions may spell success or fail
ure to many a merchant.
From an intimate association
with a wide circle of concerns,
merchandising all the neces
saries of life, we venture to say:
“The quickest and surest way
to reach the public is through
the columns of a dependable
daily newspaper like The Times-
Recorder—one that has a high
standing in the community it
serves, and has the confidence
of its readers.
“The most dependable articles
sold today are those to which
the manufacturer is not afraid
to attach his label—that is to
say, his reputation.
‘ Retail merchants are now
joining hands with the manu
facturer, and the public is thus
doubly guaranteed against in
feriority.
“The combination of manu
facturer and retailer plus good,
clean newspaper advertising,
means success to them both,
with the maximum of satisfao
tion to the purchaser.”
Do not be one of the majority who
expect more of a friend than they are
willing to give. |
STORMY SESSION OVER
SCHOOL BOOK PRINTING
McMichael, of Marion, An
Agent of Book Trust
Atlanta, Aug. 9.—After a more o:-
less stormy session in which the
charge of being an agent of a book
trust was hurled at Representative
i McMichael, of Marion, a charge he ai-
Imitted by stating that he represented
!a concern selling seme school books
used in Georgia, the house yesterdav
passed the McCrory resolution'provid
ing for a commission to investigate
the cost of school books and a provisio 1
that any book contract made can be
abrogated on six months’ notice. It
passed 142 to 0, but that vote does not
show the heated discussion leading
up to it.
Mr. Adams, of Hall, offered a substi
tute for a two-year contract, but to
have the state board of education do
the investigating. Around this the
storm centered, and Mr. McMichael
advocated it vigorously.
Mr. Moon, of Troup, charged that it
, was being advocated by a represent?,-
tive of the book trust, but Mr. Adams
claimed it was offered by him without
any suggestion from Mr. McMichael.
However, Mr. Moon insisted that the
two had been in frequent consultation
just before it had been offered. Finally
Mr. Adams withdrew it, and the Me
j Crory resolution passed.
A fight opened up shortly before the
hour for adjournment to get the Mc-
Crory bill to have the state print cer
tain of its school books set for a spe
. cial order today. A filibuster resulted
and the hour of adjournment arrived
| while a vote was being taken on a mo
| tion to adjourn.
j This bill has received favorable com
mittee action, but the rules committee
refuses to set it. Mr. McCrory says that
* under the Ontario plan Georgia would
l, save $600,000 annually on the price of
1 school books.
Resolutions Upon the Life and Death
' t of Thomas J. Wade.
The following resolutions upon the
life and death of Thomas J. Wade
\ were adopted at the August meeting
t of the Board of Education of Sum
ter County, Ga., 1913:
On the 11th day of July last, death
. invaded our ranks and removed from
' our official board our much-esteemed
and worthy brother, Thomas J. Wade
■ He was a citizen of prominence in
his communjity, a model Christian
gentleman, possessing in a marked
, degree the virtues enumerated in ths
gospel. He was a kind husband, a
- devoted father, a faithful friend, ever
at his post and prompt in the dis
charge of duty. He was ready to dis
tribute to the necessities of the poor,
and the cry of the widow and or
phan met with willing and ready re
sponse; therefore be it,
Resolved, Ist. That it is with sin
cere sorrow that we, the Board of Ed
ucation of Sumter County, part from
, him with sincere regret, and will fond
jly cherish his memory, and while wj
sorely miss his aid and counsel, we
realize that our loss is his eternal
gain. In common with his loved ones
we sincerely mourn his departure, and
would point them to Him in whom
! alone they may find a substitute for
their departed loved one.
1 Resolved, 2nd. That this tribute
be spread upon our minutes and u
i
I copy be furnished the family of our
deceased brother, and a copy be sent
to The Times-Recorder for publics
tion.
