ter of keen anticipation, and when
it was decided to give an oyster sup

the event.
The oysters will be served fried and
in stew, and the ladies of that com

good things to go with this delectable
dish.
It is the purpose of the students

AUTO OWNERS
HIT BY DECISION
Must Be More Careful In
Lending Cars, Say
Dry Officials
ALTANTA, Feb. 3. Auto own
ers in Atlanta and other sections of
the state, in commenting today upon
a recent decision of the United
States Supreme court, declare that
the ruling has placed a new and im
portant responsibility on them. The
decision, rendered in connection with
prohibition enforcement, holds that
the owner of, a motor vehicle is re
sponsible for the use of it in trans
porting booze to the extent that the
vehicle may b£ confiscated if thus
engaged, whether the owner consents
or even knows it is so used.
A business man or a social lead
er may leave a car standing and
without the knowledge or consent of
the owner it may be borrowed to do
a little transporting and if caught
in the act it may be confiscated,
without recourse. with
or without permission, seeking to
enliven the joy-ride with contraband,
may cause the kind and accommo
dating owner of the car to lose it.
Hard, isn’t it? And apparently, it is
claimed, a cruel and unjust invasion
of the right of private ownership.
J. C. Thompson, of Atlanta, was
caught with liquor in a car. He had
bought the car, on the installment
plan, from an automobile dealer in
Atlanta. At the instance of the
other automobile dealers ilTAtlanta,
this automobile jdealer carried the
case to the court of last resort, show
ing that Thompson had paid but few
installments on the automobile and
that title rested in the automobile
dealer. The high court, however,
declared, the car forfeited.
Justic McKenna, of the United
States Supreme court, reading the
majority opinion, “indicated the be
lief that should the court hold that
tival, going later to other Florida
points for an outing.

A PPLE SAUCE that has little hard
pieces of uncooked apple in it is
I not pleasant to eat. Nearly every
body pares and cores their apples,
carefully removing any hard spots in
the raw apple but few people seem
to realize that a bruise will not cook
tender. A slight bruise caused by
pressing the apple with the thumb as
one will do makes a hard dry spot.
Cut out any of these blemishes when
paring the apples and the sauce w : H

In this dinner menu the fruit cup

grapes should be cut into cubes,

the right of confiscation extend only
to the interest of the offending pur
chaser, it would be aiding violation
of the prohibition law. Bootleggers
could always buy a car 'on time’ and
thus run risk of very small losses.
This, it is stated here, is indeed a
very dangerous law from the car
owners’ point of view, but, as point
ed out, it should emphasize the need
of being careful.
“Don’t lend your cars to irrespon
sible persons and be sure it is lock
ed when you leave it on the street,”
say prohibition officers. “The num
ber of losses from thefts of cars,
added to the number of wrecked
cars resluting from irresistable joy
riding, should have taught careful
ness long ago. Owners have learn
ed, indeed, that if they wish to keep
their cars they must be constantly on
guard. The ruling of the Supreme
court admits another hazard to the
owner and every possible precaution
should be taken against it.”
