5 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. Ten Reasons Why YOU Should Join My Big Gub 1 2 3 One Year’s Trial M. 5 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. Free Life Insurance Terms of Payment, $2.50 Per Week 6 7 8 9 10 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. r w — — Free Music Exchange Library All These Features Accompany in Writing the Sale of Every Club Player-Piano Our Club Piano Regular Price . . $375.00 Club Price $267.50 Terms: $5 Cash, $1.25 Per Week CONDITIONS: No interest, one year’s trial and exchange privilege, 15c rebate on payments made before due, free life insurance feature, ten-year guarantee.
