UNION RECORDER, MILLEDCEVILLE, GA., AUGUST 30, 1020
TO THOUGHTFUL MOTHERS
AND OTHERS LEGAL PHASES
OF THE PROHIBITION LAW
Bi-in? an honorary member of the
W. C. T. U., a strict keeper of the
prohibition law, a Church worker and
a protestant Sunday School teacher
of some twenty-five yonng men. I
am submitting to the thoughtful and
Christian women a few legal reason:
come from the pit, during the hoi
before the dinner was *prea
everybody was ready to do full jus
tice to the happy occasion. It wns i
good dinner, and was thoroughly en
joyed.
The writer wns present and he ii
compelled to state that he regret:
that for some reason he failed to get
the names of all of those present. But
Mr. and Mrs. John Stiles, of Gaine:
vflle; Mr. .and Mrs. Clifford Stilt
and little daughter, of Union. S. C.:
Mr. Allen Stiles son and daughter,
Louisville, came from their homes
be present. There were other rela
tives from n distance and those r
siding in the neighborhood, and th<
there were other neighbors, ai
friends from Milledgeville present,
making a crowd of between fifty and
seventy-five present
It way a happy occasion, and a day
which will not be foregotten by tho:
present.
A DELIGHTFUL DAY AT THE
HOME OF MR. AND MRS. J. B.
STILES
Mr. and Mrs. John B. Stiles were
host and hostess to a numer of their
relatives and a few friends Wednes
day, when they held a re-union of
their family. Mr. and Mrs. Stiles
are noted for their hospitality, and
never was it more evident than it wns
on this occasion. The day wsa an
ideal summer day, and the home of r
Mr. and Mrs. Stiles, which is located jc
near Meriwether, is on an elevation, t
making it an ideal place to spend an o
August day pleasantly. The crowd j
gathered, and a social time was spent i*

po>sessed of sufficient honesty,

rust what will iron do.”) And until
a law has this support it generates
lawlewness and hypocrisy?
Did-U-Know that our enforcement
officers find that they must first dis-
that the liquor law is gonig to
be violated; that then they must dis-
hen it will be violated and
then they must be there themselves
nt the time to actually witness its
iolation and identify the criminals,
for the reason of u lack of -upport of
the law by us private citizens who
illing to take the stand and
s we would where murder or
staling or robbery or other crimes
are committed in our presence? For
several years the writer was prosecu
ting attorney for the county of his
residence and not once can he recall
that a private citizen ever reported,
or testified in court, the act of hav
ing seen a citizen commit the crime
of taking a drink of wine or other
prohibited beverages or of being in
possession of hte same.
Did-U-Ever consider that a large
percentage of those who nre talking
prohibition are living modification?
“All of them talking about heaven
ai"t going there, and all of us talk-
Georgia democrats should j ing about prohibition aint living it.”
