A BOY SCOUT TROOP
Several time's in the past Boy
Scout troops have been organized
in Milledgevillc. but unfortunately
they did not continue. It would be
a splendid undertaking for one of
the civic organizations to give their
endorsement and backing for the
organization of a scout troop in Mil
ledgcville.
There is r.u finer work than
character buildinrj. and when an
organized body undertakes to pro
mote something of lasting good, and
in the undertaking has the inter
est of future citizens in mind, the
results cannot be otherwise than
satisfactory.
It is a well known fact that chil
dren must have some outlet for their
energy, and any parent or teacher
that the amount of
vitality the average small boy has
is amazing. They can tell you of
srapadcs which sound-minded
oungsters undertake, and of the

capable of pulling off. The Boy

Romantic Comedy Film
The one great need in Mil ledge
ville just now is an awakening of
the public conscience as to local
conditions. It is well known by pub
lic officials and citizens that blind
tigers are almost openly operated
in this city, and that liquor can bo
bought by young and old. without
let or hinderance. and that no ef
fort is being made to enforce the
law.
If there is a community in Geor
gia where public sentement should
demand the enforcement of law and
bring about conditions which would
remove temptation from the youth
and save them from ruin and de
bauchery, it is Milledgeville and
Baldwin countv. No one can deny
that liquor will ruin and destroy
the morals, noble sentiments and
life of anyone who drinks it, as it
fastens itself upon its victims and
drags them to helplessness, despair
and ruin. Again we state ft is high
time this community was awakening
to existing conditions.
Public sentiment can demand and
secure an enforcement of law. which
will bring to an end the opera
tion of blind tigers, and the illicit
sale of liquor in this community.
