Secretary of State Phil Cook, ex-
ofticio automobile boss of Georgia, is
out one large, fat box of perfectly
good cigars—not campaign stogies -
because he couldn’t produce a certain
automobile number to the exact lik
ing of a certain automobile plutocrai. 1 3."”
Said plutocrat is a genuine Geor- 1
gian, and hankered for tab No. ill.
He felt that lie never would get into
trouble with anybody if his car might
be tagged with that mystic symbol.
He informed Secretary of State Cook
of this desire, and further told him
that along with the request for lag 1
No. 711 w ould come a fine box of ei- j
gars, with a note staling that if the
writer got the lag Cook could keep |
the cigars, but if he didn’t get the l
tag the cigars must come hack.
Investigation showed that tag No.
711 long ago went to somebody else
and can not now be duplicated. So
the Secretary had to pass up the ci
gars. He says if he had thought of 1:
he would have reserved tag No. 711
for some such emergency, as he might
have known it would arise sooner ur
later.
Taking time by the forelock in an
other direction, however. Colonel
Cook has put aside tag No. 41144—and
he proposes to get n box of cigars f >r
that some doy. or know why!

Whitehall Cars to
Resume Old Route
Governor Slaton approves of the
Jim Price variety of Georgia dinner,
such as the one given recently by that
gentleman at the University Club in
Atlanta.
"Everything at Price’s dinner was
Georgia raised and Georgia bred. Tin* l
menu served was rather hearty, but
it was genuinely local. There were
are sorts of varieties of pork—back
bone, ehitterlii.i, spa reribs, sausage,
Jowl, and what not. It all came from
a good Georgia farm—and it was fine
eating." said the Governor to-day.
"I enjoy a dinner of Georgia prod
ucts a little bit more than any other
kind. Price’s was a fine one—and I
hope he never will overlook me when
framing one up!”

Deputy Collector of Internal Rew -
i nue Cooley, of the Southern District
I of Georgia, recently nosed out an M-
j licit still about eight miles from
1 Thomasville. and promptly eonfls-
| rated the outfit. Mr. Cooley found
several barrels of beer and booze, an«l
> everything showed that the still had
j been in very recent operation.
There have been reports very fro-
! quently of stills around Thomas
County, especially in the lower part
of it, but they have been hard to lo-
| cate, as witnesses summoned always
1 fail to testify "satisfactorily,” or
something or other.
If they are going to manufacture it
in South Georgia by the wholesale,
they will have to quit calling it gen
erally "mountain dew.” anyway, .is
there are no mountains in South
Georgia.
A rather silly story—designed orig
inally as a joke, perhaps—has bee 1
going the rounds of the press in ;
Georgia concerning Judge Samuel R. 1
Adams, of Savannah, and some re- j
cently expressed views of his in re- :
to woman’s suffrage.
Judge Adams gave to the press -1
few days ago a very scholarly and
dignified argument against woman 1
suffrage, which attracted great at ten - 1
tion throughout the State. A few
da vs later a story was sent out from
Savannah to the effect that the judge
had been swamped with protesting
letters from all quarters, and thill
"sharp division actually had arisen in i
his family” because of the views ex
pressed. j
At first the judge looked upon the j
matter as a joke, if a rather poor one.
but later it became more or 1^= em
barrassing. and now It seems to re
quire a mild measure of polite denial.
As a matter of fact, the judge ha*
received only a few letters concerning
his article, all of them commending i 1
Nobody has protested to him about
it, although many people doubtless
entertain views entirely different
from those expressed by the judge.
And as to division in his household—
that, of course, is absurd.
Judge Samuel B. Adams is one of
Georgia’s most splendid men—an able
lawyer, a Just judge, a student and a
scholar. His fear of woman suffrage
is that it might make woman lex
womanly—and that is the one fear,
moreover, of many people who hon
estly and heartily enou~h believe oth
erwise in the righteousness of the
cause.
