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* in conversation and happy greetings, j Volstead Act and that our Georgi; In the early afternoon the crowds Supreme Court has held that th< gathered around a table, which hud i Georgia law is still in force? been placed under the shades of the J Cooley v State, 152 Ga. p. 469. trees', and partook of a barbecue ■ Did-U-Know that were the Vol- dinner. the equal of which is seldom , stead Act repealed and were th« spread.

And that even a W. C. T. U. or a prohibitionist and their relative* who may have any quantity of such 'liquids in their homes is a criminal? Did-U-Know if you have taken nny wine or other prohibited- beverages within the past four years you are a criminal (whether you have been caught or not) and are subject to prosecution? And that nny one even a prohibitionist or a W. C. T. U. or a Church member who manufactures any quantity of wines or knowingly furnishes ingredient* to another therefor, for any purpose ( whether for Christmas flavorings or “for thy stomach’s sake,” (I. Timothy Chap, fl verse 23) is a criminal and has com. mitted two crimes and should be prosecuted both in the State Court and in the Federal Court, or, if po>sessed of sufficient honesty, -hould go to the nearest courthouse and plead guilty and serve the sen- of the law and save the public the expense of apprehension and prosecution?
