J 111'. ATIjAJS 1 A U UJUK U1A N A JN J ) IS KWTS,
DRAWS BILL TO
CHECK SALES
Death of Sanders Walker Spurs
Chatham Legislator—Special
Bottles Proposed. •
B. JAMES B. NEVIN.
One of the members from Chatham
proposes to Introduce in the next Leg
islature a bill rigidly regulating the
sale and labeling of narcotic drugs in
Georgia.
Provision will be made for levying a
general tax on every proprietor or
' clerk dispensing morphine, cocaine
and other drugs of like character, to
the extent of $5 a year, and with the
sum thus raised it will be proposed to
pay the expenses of a State drug in
spector, whose duty ft shall be to keep
track of all drug dispensations in gen
eral, and of deadly drugs In particular.
4 The bill has not been worked out
in all of Its provisions, but It likely
will undertake to regulate the man
ner In which narcotic drugs shall be
sold, perhaps prescribing not only
bright red labels for all drugs of this
character, but some unusual form of
package. It is suggested that it might
help to require all deadly drugs to be
sold In triangular-shaped bottles, with
especially prepared screw tops.
However this may be shaped up
eventually, it is the purpose of the
member having the matter under con
sideration to regulate the sale of nar
cotic drugs in such manner as to ren
der their accidental use as improbable
as possible, In any and all circum
stances.
The fatal mistake of young Sanders
Walker in Macon unquestionably has
stirred the State in the matter of nar
cotic and deadly drug dispensation,
and the proposed bill to regulate their
sale hereafter, even more rigidly than
ever before, likely will receive strong
support in the Legislature, and has
more than a good chance to pass.
Representative Anderson Rodden-
bery, who has been far from well of
late, Is spending a few days at Hamp
ton Springs, Fla., recuperating.
He hopes to get back to Washington
within the week however, to resume
n his congressional duties.
Judge Carl Vinson, former Speaker
Pro Tern of the House, now Judge of
the City Court of Mtlledgevllle, like
ly will be a candidate for Congress
In the next primaries, to succeed Mr.
Thomas W. Hardwick.
• It is very well known that’Mr.
Hardwick does not aspire to succeed
himself, and has given his more in
timate friends to understand as much
clearly. He has served ten years In
the House, achieved a high standing
and reputation during that time, and
now desires to retire to the practice
of law. Mr. Hardwick has remained
in Congress at great financial sacri
fice, as it is.
Judge Vinson unquestionably will
be a strong candidate for the suc
cession. He is a fine campaigner, an
eloquent speaker and knows his way
around very well, indeed, in the mat
ters of parliamentary practice and
the paths of legislative endeavor. He
is immensely popular in his home
county of Baldwin and is well known
throughout the Tenth District.
Judge Vinson does not say positive
ly that he will be a candidate to suc
ceed Mr Hardwick, but he very
E ointedly refrains from denying that
e will.
A Municipal Ownership Club has
been organized in Columbus, with T.
E. Golden, a well-known manufac
turer, as president, and J. P. Illges,
another manufacturer, as secretary,
having as its object the creation of
sentiment and working for the adop
tion of waterworks bonds, which are
to be put before the people of Co
lumbus.
At present the Columbus water
supply Is owned by a private corpo
ration, and Mayor Chappell and oth
ers are now at the head of a move
ment to hold a bond election for the
purpose of floating bonds to be used
it i n building a waterworks system to
be owned by the city.
Judge Augustus Warwick Fite, the
fighting magistrate of the Cherokee
circuit, has made a remarkable dis
covery—one that fills his heart with
, exceeding great Joy, moreover!
The Judge has found a decision of
the State Court of Appeals that
pleases him immensely, and that he
unqualifiedly approves, even if he does
hold that he beat the court to it.
The Judge expresses himself as
much gratified at the recent decision
of the Supreme Court sustaining his
views as to blind tigers, to the effect
that all places where whisky is euid
either secretly or openly are blind
tigers and can be abated as nuisances
at the instance of any citizen, and
also at the decision of the Court of
Appeals, holding that when a steward
of a social club sells to the members
of the club or anyone else Intoxicating
liquors, he is guilty of violating the
State prohibition laws, thereby hold
ing that all social clubs selling whisky
are blind tigers.
Judge Fite says he has always held
this as the law. but this is the first
time it has been so held by the higher
courts.
The first indictments under the new
law requiring all manufactories to
provide seats for female operatives
were returned the other day by the
Muscogee Grand Jury.
C L. Perkins and J. K. Kmg, presi
dent and superintendent, respectively,
of the Massey-Perkins Hosiery Mill
in Columbus, have been held to a mis
demeanor charge for failure to pro
vide seats for female operatives in
their factory, as is required by law. in
* certain circumstances
Whether the cases will be settled ui
carried to the courts of review as a
test of the new law is pot certain, but
the impression is that the cases will
sot get beyond the lower courts.
12 7 NOW ENROLL©
IN GREAT PLAYER-PIANO CLUB
A LL RECORDS in the South for buying
Player-Pianos have been smashed by
members of the gigantic Weatherholt Player-
Piano Club. So far 127 members have en
rolled. The club plan is proving more popular
than I anticipated. Lovers of music in At
lanta, and all over the South, realize that the
saving of $334.50 by my Club Plan is an op
portunity which should not be overlooked.
So they are rushing to enroll. At the present
rate of enrollment, all of the 400 memberships
will be gone before the time limit expires.
There is a reason for this rush to enroll. My
Club Plan means that every one of the 400
members secures a $650.00 Player-Piano for
$488.50 on terms of $10 down and $2.50 per
week. In addition to this my plan has free
features worth $173, which makes the saving
to each member $334.50. And the first pay
ment of $10 places the Player-Piano in your
home with everything ready to play. There
are no extras of any kind. You pay the mem
bership fee of $10, get the Player and begin
playing the 12 rolls of music I give free.
When you get tired of this music, bring back
the 12 rolls and exchange them for 12 more
from my*free library of 5,000 rolls. Do this
as often as you like.

Cai/inrr nf K fl you bou Sht this Club Player-Piano in the
udvmg UI tPluliwU open market, you would pay $650.00 for it.
By my Gigantic Club Plan of 400 members co-operating together, I
am able to offer this Player at $488.50. But this is only the first sav
ing.
If I were not interested in the club members,
I could unload a cheap player and then try
and forget it. That is not the Weatherholt way of doing business.
Try it a year. Then, if you want something else, you may exchange
it and get credit for amount paid.
Ton-Yoar Pisarantoo T ^ 8re are * ots of Pi a y er Pi anos * could sell
lull I ufll UUdlallludfor considerably less money and make
more profit. But I wouldn’t guarantee them for ten days, to say
nothing of ten years. 2 KNOW the Weatherholt Club Player and
the people who have been making it for years. That’s why I
GUARANTEE IT FOR TEN YEARS.
I know that if those who purchase my
Club Players live, they will pay for them.
I want their families to have them in case of death. So I guaran
tee that every purchaser will live to pay for it. If he dies, I will
give a receipt in full to his beneficiaries.
These terms are
cheaper than rent
ing an ordinary Player. Why rent an inferior Player when you
can OWN a high-class one for less money? These terms place the
Weatherholt Club Player-Piano WITHIN THE REACH OF EV
ERYBODY. There is no excuse for not having a Player-Piano now.
Monthly payments can be arranged.

A 25c Rebate on All Weekly Payments Made Before Due
Under this feature the cost of the Player may be reduced almost
$50 more. I want to make the Club Plan as attractive as possible,
and so I added this feature to encourage thode who should be re
warded for promptness.
Up Intprpof O n * y those who have had experience with paying in-
IIU HI Id Du I terest on deferred payments can appreciate this fea
ture. The last payment is no more than the first under my plan.
When interest is charged the last payment is a third more. In
other words, I save each member $78 on each Player.
Two-Year Conservatory Course 2: SPSS'S
who want to learn, I have added this feature. I have arranged with
a successful conservatory for these scholarships. The regular price
is $80. Inasmuch as the Club Player is a Piano and Player-Piano
combined, many like to understand music.
This is one of the greatest
features ever offered. It
means that I give each Club Member $10.50 worth of music every
day. I give 12 rolls of music worth that with each Player free.
Then these may be exchanged every day if desired for other music in
my 5,000-roll library.
Selected Bench to Match Player and 12 Rolls of Music
This feature amounts to $15. The benches cost $4.50 each, and the
12 rolls of music are worth $10.50. What good is a Player-Piano
without a bench or music? I want each Club Member to get the
Player fully equipped.
