This Is the first time the writer
has had an opportunity to' attend a
court presided over by Judge Isaac,
and we were impressed with the dig*
nity and order kept in court room.
Judge Isaac is always a welcome
visitor to Waycross and in fact we
are- beginning to claim him as a Way
cross citizen- Since his last visit here
Judge Isaac,Vwho was already a dis
tinguished 'author) has joined the
"Fourth Estate" and Is now also an
editor and is publishing a very valu
able magazine for the benefit of the
legal fraternity entitliJ "Th« Nation-

they can shave down the bill on Rey
