JUDGE COZART OF COLUMBUS
FOR THE COURT OF APPEALS
Columbus, Ga.~Judge A. W. Cozart
of this city, who Ib a candidate for
one of the now judgeships on tho
state court of appeals, recently cre
ated by act of the legislature, has been
engnged in the practice of law both
In the state and federal courts fqr
more than twenty years, and Is rdcog-
nlzed by leading Judges and lawyers
all over Georgia as one of the mate's
ablest lawyers.
Judge Cozart's candidacy has boen
endorsed by every member of tbe
large and able bar of his home city,
and by many local bar associations of
other towns and cities in„Georgla.
Possessing the Judicial tempera
ment, he Is brilliant without being
erratic; keen, but not narrow; deep
without being obscure, and broad
minded without being shallow. He
knows and follows closely tbe law, but
at Jhe same time he has a passion
for substantial justice.' v
Thousands have laughed at his epi
grams, which are as wise as they are
witty. From his occasional addresses
the following are quoted:
“He who Is not willing to perspire
need not aspire."
.“In a moral sense, to beat tHo devil
you must get ahead of the devil and
run like the devil."
I am glad that I was raised in
the country. All boys and pigs ought
to be raised in the country?'
"A home without a child ts like a
world without a satellite, because it
Ims no bright little one to run around
It.”
He has made many addresses' be
fore tho Georgia Bar Association and
the Medical Association, Dental As
sociation, Bankets' Association and
Manufacturers' Association -of 'thI8
state, and he Is known throughout the
length and breadth of Georgia.
If you have any lawyer friendB and
want to know' about Judge Cozart,
Just ask them.
As an evidence of what Judge Oo-
zart’s home folks think of him as a
lawyer and a man, we present this
statement made by one of his home
papers, the Columbus Enquirer-Sun,
about him:
"Judge Cozart has practiced law In
our midst for twenty-five years, and,
no matter where you tun. you find
every class respecting him and rely
ing on him. He is thoroughly equip
ped for the grave duties of a mout
her of this high court. The state and
the bar of the state, in honoring him
ns they will do In September, will be
conferring an honor that ho merits
and for their consideration in reward
ing a worthy man and lawyer they will
receive from him good work, clear
headed work, lots of work, and that
high-toned service which has always
actuated the men whose lives In af
ter years have been referred to as
those of patriots.”
Local Woodmen and
Circle Enjoy Banquet
1 "if
On Tuesday evening Aug. '22ml,
the W. O. Ws. and W. Os. enter
tained their families and a few
friends at one of the most thor
oughly enjoyed banquets ever held
under Cairo’s blue skies.
Long before the appointed hour
the house was taxed to its utmost,
capacity with enthusiastic mem
bers and friends eager to hear more
and more about the ever beloved
order, founded for the benefit, and
protection of the American homes.
Promptly at 8 o’clock the sound
of the Beetle was heard and all
eyes were turned on the master of
ceremonies, Col. L. W. Rigsby, at
which time he invited the mem
bers of the ladies’ auxiliary of the
W. O. W., the Ladies’ Circle in full
uniform dress, and seated (hem in
a body in the specially prepared
and reserved place for them, after
which, he, in a very elegant man
ner introduced to the audience, the
speaker of the occasion, Sov. W. H.
Woodruff, District manager of the
W. O. W. and W. C., of Macon,
Ga. [
Sov.- Woodruff delivered one of
the grandest lectures ever heard in
Cairo, not confining himself to
his subject of Woodcraft, alone, but
touching on all fraternities as next
thing towards the uplift and up
building of the home and county,
not only from a faternnl standpoint
but a protective one, and a duty
you owe yourself, loved ones and
God; not only exemplifying the
good that has been done by the
Woodmen and Woodmen Circle,
and urged each and every man and
woman in the audience eligible, to
join some fraternal protective or
ganization, if not the W. O. W. or
VV.p., os a sacred duty you owe
your family.
At the close of this the house
echoed and re-echoed with ap
plause for the loved and talented
speaker and eaclt one in their
hearts hoped that he could live
many years to show others the
need as he had shown them. The
ladies in charge, members of the
Circle, headed by their Guardian,
Sov. Flora Miller, now retired to
the ante room, where they began
assisting the committee of arrange,
ments, composed of Sovs. Ethel
Muggridge, Norma Miller and Sal-
lie Knight, to serve the cream and
cake in the colors'of the two orders
while punch wp? then served again
to those who had become thirsty by
Miss Mcllie Muggridge.
A rising vote of commendation
was then heard from all sides to
the ladies in charge' of tho serving
for the efficient-manner in which
they handled the. large crowd and
especially to the two who were so
staunch to the cream churns, whom
wc suppose to be “Lady Circles”
too, in the persons'of Henry Knight
and Bubber Clifford, for their un
tiring service in the dipping and
cutting of the cream.
But as for the enjoyment of the
delic.itices of the banquet, Sov. IV.
E. Gilmore can tell all of you, as
the crowd thinks he enjoyed' it .to
such an extent that lie wouldn’t
care if another banquet was not
held in some time as he clamored
very loud for the largest, piece of
cake and largest block of cream.
All dispersed to their respective
homes at it late hour all praising
Woodcraft in their hearts and re
joicing in tne being of a “wood
chuck’’ and resolving to tell some,
friend of its good principles and
invite them to unite and be one of
the merry thron g in the next ban
quet.
