The farmers will do well to study
the Bankhead Bill, and get an un
derstanding of its provisions, and
what it really means before cast
ing their ballots December 14th.
The members of the North Geor
gia Methodist Conference went on
record as being opposed to compul-
sary Military training in schools and
colleges.
Mayor Key’s plan to establish a
liquor store in Atlanta met with
overwhelming defeat of the Coun
cil Monday afternoon. The vote was
27 to 8.
Hie automobile continues to take
its toll. There are people who will
not learn that fast and reckless
driving of automobiles is taking
their life into their own hands.
Hie number of high powered
gangsters is being decreased by the
United States officers. “Baby Face
Nelson” was the Ult to bite the
dust, but he did not do so until
after he had .shot and killed two
officers.
A pioneer is a fellow who can
remember back when the leading
attraction at a bathing beach was a
hot dog stand.
Maybe families aren’t as large as
they used to be, but we know a lot
of them than can talk and act
mighty big.
Sins of the parents are visited
upon their children unto the third
and four generation. And so
their bond issues..—Exchange.
The fellow that thinks the world
owes him a living seems unatae to
find a collector who will take the
job on commission.
Tax Commissioner Fox asserts
that half the automobiles in
state are not listed for taxing pur

Democrat, Weston, W. Va.
The United States was not overly
shocked at President Roosevelt'
statement that our public debt might
reach 31 billion dollars by 1935. It is
only $250 per capita, while France
today owes nearly $S0C per capita,
and Great Britain owes nearly $900
per capita. Owing $250 apiece to our
selves can be taken care of without
serious worry in this great and rich
country.
President Roosevelt is spending
much of his time at his Georgia
horn* consulting Democratic 1 Crid
ers and mi.king plans for the ses
sion of Congress which convenes in
January.
“Last Call for Breakfast”
N. W. H.
Maybe .some of you were so busy
that you did not read about our
meeting on December 12th at the
beautiful old Mansion at which time
club will entertain the officer*
of all nine of the Macon Garden
Clubs. It will be at three o’clock,
and after the meeting of our guests
—there will be a very short pro
gram. The Georgia Cherokees will
furnish music, and there are ten
hostesses who are responsible for
the rest of the occasion. These are—
Mrs. Guy Wells, Mr*. Hoy Taylor,
Mrs Harry Little, Mrs. E. G. Corne
lius, Miss Ethel Adams, Mias Nora
Cone, Mrs. R. W. Hatcher, Mrs. E. A.
Tigner, Miss Clara Morris and Mrs.
George Echols.
A most important part of this oc
casion will be the Christmas deco
rations—each member to fix one if
possible—to fit anywhere you want
to make them fit—and to be worked
out WITHOUT any HOLLY—so set
your brain to work—and then your
fingers—these “decorations” are to
sent to the Mansion
Wednesday morning—December
12th—before twelve o’clock.
Make your plans to be on hand
that afternoon at three.
Something has got to be done to
decrease the number of automobile
accidents in Georgia. The sentiment
that the state should have a high
way constabifiary Is growing in
favor.
The Union-Recorder does not be
lieve the people of Georgia are will
ing to bring back the saloon, with
the attending debauchery, crime,
drunkenness and sinister and cor
rupting influences.:
It is an erroneous idea to hold
that legalizing the sale of liquor
will end its illegal sale. The saloon
operator and the bootlegger alike
recognizes no Wgal control of their
business.
Hiere are sinister influences in
Georgia to establish salloons in every
section of Georgia. The re-opening
of the saloon will bring about
bearable conditions in the State, in
the increase of drunkenness,
bauchery and crime.

in Atlanta. The Atlanta Constitu
tion. inspitc of its being opposed to
the present prohibition law has op
posed Mayor Key’s plan.
The soil erosion program is of
the greatest importance to the farm
ers of Baldwin county. They should
take to it and restore their land
to its former fertility. If they do
this their farms will bring forth
abundant fruit, and pay them well
for their trouble and expense.
The Methodist ministers at their
conference in Atlanta last week took
a firm stand against the sale of
whiskey in Georgia, and condemned
Mayor Key’s plan to establish a
municipal liquor store for Atlanta.
The resolution condemning the li
quor store was adopted with great
enthusiasm.
