Maddox today again appeared as a star in police court. This time he defended his right, to raise hogs at his home, 65 Howell Mill road. The aiderman is the owner of a dozen swine which rim loose in a two acre lot. The fact that this lot is inside of the city caused Sanitary Inspector I Strickland to hale the aiderman before , Recorder Broyles, accused of violating I tiie city ordinance relating to hogs. The ordinance specifies that hogs I shall not be kept in a pen within 100 i yards of a residence, and the alderman ] said this didn’t "touch him." Under this ordinance, hogs ran be , kept anywhere in the city, the same as ' ■hickens. provided they are not penned , and the premises are kept clean.

Presid. t fells Ideals ol the State federation and the Work It Is Doing VVUy is a i.-lubwoman'.’ Mrs 1 -. H. C. IVhite, of Athens. I'iesident of the federated women’e clubs of the state, answers the ques ion as follows: "As president of the Geo. gin Federation of Women’s Clubs, I be lieve that the mission of the club woman is not to secure ‘woman’s rights" or suffrage, but to help womankind in every-day’ things, to tit themselves and their neighbors for their responsibilities, old and new.” t "Whether she will or no, the modern woman has. of necessity, become her sister’s keeper, It may or may not add to her value as a member of her race; it may or may not add to her efficiency as a citizen; it may or may not add to her in dividual happiness. All this de pends upon the spirit and the man ner in which she meets the de mands upon her and tiie extent to which she keeps inviolate her es sentially womanly qualities of modesty, gentleness and conscien tious self-sacrifice. "But it certainly adds to her du ties and burdens. For—whatever may-ffietide in the evolution of so ciety woman will continue to have, as she has always had, chief part, in the preservation of the in tegrity of the fundamental unit in any social system —she must be the keeper of the home of her sis ter and her brother; she must be the keeper of the children of them both.

"We have been talking it over, and while our plans are still in embryo, I believe a charter for the Dixie Polo club will be applied for soon, and we shall start with a membership of about sixteen men." said one of the prime movers today. He asked <.hat his name be not used, ami was reticent about the proposed club, saying there were a number of reasons why publicity would be premature. A first team of eight men will be composed of prominent lovers of out door and rugged sports, according to the men behind the movement for the club. A tentative list includes Ed Al frlend. Gus Ryan.

But —with- out undervaluing the sincerity and the zeal with which some may feel called upon to wage battle in this cause, the vast majority of us. I am sure, prefer just now at least not to enlist actively for the fray. • “We are content to commit to God and to our brothers the pres ervation and extension of such rights as it may seem necessary for us to possess in order that we may be better and happier women and more valuable and efficient cit izens. Besides, the performance of our clear and undisputed duties; leaves us no time to spare, no en ergies to waste. Extension of our duties, our responsibilities, our power may best bp secured by worthy performance of those al ready in our hands. "The individual woman should be better, happier, wisw. and more in telligent woman through member ship in her club. Personal culture is .-ecured by association with oth ers, cultured or seeking culture. The extent and the great variety of the activities of our clubs looking to personal culture of the members is indicated in many cases by the names of the local clubs. The indi vidual woman should be a more competent and useful woman through her club associations. “As keeper of the individual hmne and guardian of her own children, she may learn much of value to her in her own offices from interchange of thought and expe rience with her sitters. Lut it is in meeting the larger responsibili ties which have cemented us and which are not individual or per sonal that the club organization demonstrates its necessity anti proves its efficiency.” for polo ponies Some of these will be purchased from the lunches which make a specialty of training polo mounts for the big clubs in the East and the Eng lish army clubs, while others will be raw. unbroken mustangs. These will be trained to follow the ball by the local enthusiasts. The management of Ponce DeLeon park has been asked to rent the grounds for polo practice, but it is said the use . of this park will be refused, as polo is an extremely rough game, and the po . nles' hoofs cut the turf badly. The park department probably will grant the use of the oval in Piedmont park for polo practice, and ft is expected that the polo club will later be given the use of part of the grounds of the Athletic club's country home or those of the Brookhaven club. Challenges will be issued to the polo eight of the St. Louis Country ciub and to the Chicago Polo club. It is expected, those organi zations being comparatively new in the l field. Games with the Meadowbrook • arid other famous organizations of the East will be considered after the Dixie I club lias tested its strength against less formidable adversaries. Mrs. H. C. White, ot Athens, President State Federation of Women’s Clubs. SLAIN MAN’S SON WON’T PROSECUTE; SLAYER SET FREE E. B. Echols. a farmer, living neir Easton, in the Piedmont road, arrested Thursday charged with the murder of his brother-in-law. James Thompson, was given his freedom by Justice Orr today. The warrant against him was dismissed on his plea of self-defense. Homer Thompson, son of the slain man, said that he would make no effort to have Echols indicted by the grand jury. No further action in the matter is contem plated by the authorities. Thompson quarreled with his brother in-law two weeks ago and dttring the al tercation struck him with a heavy hickory walking stick. Echols retaliated with ,a sand shovel, dealing Thompson what proved to be a fatal blow on the head. Thompson died a week later without re vealing the name of his assailant to the authorities. Echols gave himself up to the county police. ■ COMMITTEE ASKS FOR MATERIAL TO FINISH OLD WOMEN’S HOME The building committee in charge of I the large annex to the Home for Old ; Women has progressed as far as it can 1 without additional gifts, and today j made a public request for material to complete the work.

Found Guilty, Is Lectured by the Court. 1 rank McDonald, former - waiter in a local restaurant, was today sen tenced io serve eight years in the pen itentiary for the killing of R. L. Ste vens, son of former Railroad Commis sioner O. B. Stevens, after the jury try ing his case had returned a verdict of voluntary manslaughter. Yet McDonald is at liberty today be cause of the complete faith in him held by Charles E. Thompson, the broker, who knew McDonald only as his favor ite waiter. When Judge Roan recog nized .McDonald’s motion for a new trial today, Thompson canre forward and agreed to sign a bond for the boy’s appearance on November 30, the date fixed by the jurist for- the hearing. Shortly after the judge had agreed to hear W. .VI. Smith's application for a new trial. Solicitor Dorsey consented to a bond of $3,500 for the boy. Thomp son instantly signed it. and McDonald was released. "Youth doesn’t need a stimulant, youth needs cold water poured over its head every day. i am confident if tnere had been no liquor in this affair you would not stand before me today," said Superior Judge L. S. Koan today in sentencing McDonald. ’’There is altogether too much killing in this country," continued the Jurist. "If it does not cease, we will stand before the world a nation of homi cides. The records of this court in this respect are appalling. "I am confident that a man can go through life without killing anotlie and 1 am sure that if you young men had ail been sober Stevens would not be in his grave today and you would not be standing before me facing a prison term." Voluntary manslaughter was the ver dict returned by the jury at 8:30 o’clock last night, but hot rendered until court opened today. In pasisng sentence, Judge Roan said he took into consid eration McDonald’s youth, his good record and his limited education. J. D. Kilpatrick, retained by O. B. Stevens to assist the prosecution, told the court that the dead boy's father did not seek vengeance.
