EMPLOYED THE RIGHT TERM
What Else Was It Possible for Hint
to Say of the Soloist's
Vocal Efforts?
The soloist was an egotist and the
rest of the choir hated him cordially.
And when it gave a recent concert
they were provoked when he got the
very best parts. But still the mem¬
bers felt that they had one way left
to get even with hint, tine of their
members did the publicity work for
them and they knew that he too dis¬
liked the baritone, and hoped that he
would give him no publicity—a thing
he craved more than all else.
But to their dismay the next morn¬
ing's paper read, “Mr. Blank’s rendi¬
tion of his solos was very satisfying."
They took the writer to task. And
he retorted, “I had to mention them,
didn't I? Well, what else could X
say? They were certainly satisfying
to himself, and as for the j'est of you
I didn't hear you clamoring for any¬
more of them, did I?”
And they were convinced he was
right.
ASPIRIN
Name “Bayer” on Genuine
Warning? Unless you see the name
“Bayer" on package or on tablets you
are not getting genuine Aspirin pre¬
scribed by physicians for twenty-one
years and proved safe by millions.
Take Aspirin only as told in the Bayer

New One to Her.
One of Kansas City’s welfare so
cieties provides a summer camp for
children. Kacli child is given a thor¬
ough outing for $1 a week. Children
are not accepted under the age of
nine, but now and then u well-coached
child gets by a few months younger.
The other day a little girl with all the
earmarks of seven years applied with
a dollar at the camp. “How old are
you?" she was asked. "Nine,” replied
the child glibly. “When were you
eight?" This was an unexpected tptes
tion. “Eight?” she stammered; “why,
do you have to be eight before you
are nine?"—Kansas City Star.
Didn’t Fool Percy.
I '.very night when Percy’s mother
thought it about, time to put him to
bed she was in the habit of spelling to
his father, so much so until the little
fellow lmd caught on to it, hut it so
happened that on this particular night
mother was spelling something else to
father. However, Percy, looking up
from his playing on the floor, said:
“Ah ! Come on and put me to bed. J

STATE NEWS OF INTEREST
Brief News Items Gathered '’Here And
There From All Section Of
The State
Atlanta. — Schools of Georgia de¬
pendent on state funds will open in
the fall, pensions will be paid Con¬
federate veterans and other pressing
obligations owed by the state will be
paid provided the rentals of the West¬
ern and Atlantic railroad are sold
within a reasonable time. Governor
Thomas W. Hardwick announced re¬
cently.
The governor estimated the state
would be approximately $2,500,000
from the sale of the $2,500,000 in de¬
ferred warrants. He declared that he
expected an income of approximately
$200,000 in the next four months from
the gasoline tax.
The governor declared that, with
the income in 'sight from the general
tax bill and from the Western and At¬
lantic warrants, the state will be able
to pay all appropriations and probably
will have a small surplus left over.
General William A. Wright, state
comptroller, was studying the gasoline
tax bill recently to obtain information
on which to base his plans for its col¬
lection. He declared that gasoline
d.ealers will be rquired to register with
the ordinaries of their county not later
than September T, 1921. They wiil
he required to state their location and
the kind of business they transact.
On October 1, 1921, the dealers will
be required to submit their first report
showing sales. Thereafter, they will
make quarterly reports. General
Wright will issue a statement inter
reviewing in full what will he required
of tiie gasoline dealers.
Governor Hardwick had planned to
leave soon for Asheville, N. C.. for a
short vacation, but due to the fact
that the appropriations hill and gen¬
eral tax bill were not sent to his desk,
and because the Dill creating a com¬
mission to lease the governor’s man¬
sion had not been transmitted to him.
the governor postponed his vacation
trip.
The mansion commute which will
have charge of leasing the governor’s
mansion property, will he named by
the governor soon.

which have fallen during the summer.

[COURTS TO PASS
ON GASOLINE TAX
Governor Hardwick Thinks Bill Will
Stand The Test Of The
Courts
Atlanta.—Oil companies operating
in Georgia will bring lentil proceedings
within a few days to test the con¬
stitutionality of the gasoline tax of
one cent a gallon provided in a bill
passed by the legislature and signed
by Governor Hardwick, it was announ¬
ced by It. N. Reed, president of the
Reed Oil company.
Governor Hardwick signed the gas¬
oline tax bill. He stated he was con¬
fident it would stand the test of the
courts. Mr. Reed, who is the head
of one of the largest companies hand¬
ling gasoline in Georgia, stated that
the first step probably would be to
bring proceedings in state courts.
Mr. Reed declared if the tax is found
to be legal it will be paid hut said the
one cent a gallon will be paid by the
consumer. He said that before the
customers are charged this increase
the constitutionality of the measure
will be ascertained.
According to the estimates made
by those hacking the gasoline tax hill
that measure will bring a revenue of
approximately $1,100,000 a year. The
total appropriations by the legisla¬
ture amount to approximately $11,-
500,000 and if the gasoline tax law is
declared unconstitutional the revenues
of the state will be seriously crippled.
Horse And Mule Men Win Fight
Atlanta.— J. D. Patterson, Jr., and
Watkins, Russell & Asbill have just
been notified by the interstate com¬
merce commission that they have won
the case of the Hudson Mule company
against the Louisville and Nashville
railroad. In this case twenty-eight
dealers in mules and horses located in
Atlanta, Montgomery and Birmingham
contended that the horse and mule
rates in the southeast were unreason¬
able. The commission finds that the
carriers have charged more for a
through rate than for a combination
of the local rates. This is found to
he illegal and the carriers are directed
to repay the shippers the difference
between through rates and the sums
of the lowest Intermediate rates. This
means that there will he returned to
mule and horse shippers of the south¬
east; some $<;0,000 to $75,000.
Cotton Crop Is Reduced By Half
Atlanta.—Half of normal, and no
jnore, is the estimate on the cotton
crop, made by J. J. Brown, who re¬
turned to Atlanta recently after a
visit to the southwestern counties of
the state, where the devastation of the
boll weevil and excessive rains are
reported to have done the greatest
damage. “I have never seen such
poor crop prospects in my life,” lie
said, “and from all indications, 1 do
not believe that the yield for the en¬
tire cotton belt will be over 7,000,000
hales.

BOOZE IS FLOWING
LIKE WATER INTO US
RUMRUNNERS KEEP TOO BUSY
, FOR DRY AGENTS ON
LAND AND SEA
EVERY ROAD BEING GUARDED
Every Road From Canada Into The
United States Is Closely Guarded
By Prohibition Officials
New York.—The good Mrs. Parting¬
ton of Sidmouth, England, who. during
the great storm of 1824, tried to keep
the whole Atlantic out of her seaside
cottage, by vigorous use of her mop,
and who was defeated after a game and
spirited contest, has nothing on the
prohibition agent who dries up a
trickle of hooch in front of him only
to find an ocean flooding in at his
hack.
For, in spite of arrests, seizures,
prosecutions and few convictions, whis¬
key. gin. rum, brandy and even 9 per
cent beer are flowing into "dry" Unit¬
ed States in greater volume than ever
before in the Volstead era, and Wash¬
ington prohibition enforcement leaders
admit that unless they have more
money, more agents and navy and army
hacking, the job of keeping or making
Hie United States dry looks hopeless.
The entire North Atlantic seaboard,
the Canadian border and in particular
the Detroit river, constitute the 4,500
mile battle line of the bootleggers.
From the southern New Jersey coast,
past Atlantic City, along the Connect¬
icut and Massachusetts shores, and
northward to the tip of Maine, fleets—
not single ships, but actually fleets—
of rum runners are patrolling the
"safe” waters beyond the three-mile
limit, bidding thirsty Americans to
“como and get it."
Every road from Canada into the
United States, however closely guard¬
ed by customs and prohibition officials,
leaks carloads or truckloads of contra¬
band. And along the Detroit river,
where the Canadian law has decided
that it can’t stop Canadians from sell¬
ing anything they have to Americans,
there arefso many bootleggers that
they have decided to wear badges so
they won’t try to sell hooch to eacli
other.
The mysterious Arelhusia, “oasis of
the ocean,” they call her, lias two thou¬
sand cases of liquor aboard, after dis¬
posing of a vast stock, and is skirting
the coast off Martha’s vineyard selling
it to all and sundry.
Up from the Bahamas is coming, pro¬
hibition officials say. a fleet of heavily
laden ships whose skippers propose to
drop anchor five or six miles out and
then advertise that they are open for
business.
If they come, the prohibition men
say, they will he met with a surprise;
hat a trip will he sprung, and that
what happened to the rum schooner
Henry l! Marshall will he a picnic com¬
pared to what is going to happen to
“the enemy fleet."
'Treasury officials declare that the
biggest seizure of vessels barring that
of (he German liners when war broke
out- is going to occur off American
shores. They declare, too, that the
ring leaders in the magnficent rutn
l-unning scheme are now scurrying up
and down the coast trying to warn,
the incoming fleet of the impending
danger, and trying to duck certain war¬
rants that have already been issued for
their own arrest.
Receiver Appointed For Seized Ships
New York.—Arthur J. Baldwin, a
New York lawyer, and an official of a
publishing company, has been appoint¬
ed as receiver in equity for the United
States mail steamship company, which
has been in controversy with the ship¬
ping board over the seizure of charter¬
ed vessel. Mr. Baldwin's bond was
fixed at $550,000.
Greek Army “Hot After” Flying Turks
Athens, Greece—With Angora, the
Turkish nationalist, capital, the goal,
the Greek armies have renewed their
advance, gaining twenty miles in one
day. The attack began after brief ar¬
tillery preparation.
J. P. Morgan’s Partner Is Recovering
New York.—H. P. Davison, partner
of J. P. Morgan, who underwent a seri¬
ous operation recently, is on the way
to recovery, doctors at the Roosevelt
hospital say.
Duelists Killed As Deputy Looks On
Nashville, Tenn.—Arthur Short, prin¬
ter. and Robert Underwood, machinist,
are dead here following a pistol duel in
the middle of the street as a result of
the age-old story- the eternal triangle.
Underwood and Short met in North
Nashville not far from Short’s home,
and in front of the residence of Dep¬
uty Sherif Fred Cage. After a few
words which Cage could not under¬
stand, he said , Underwood pushed
Short from him, drew his gun and
fired once. The second time, he pull¬
ed, his gun snapped. Then Short fired.
Control Of China By Commission?
Tokio.—Reports from America that
the United States may suggest con¬
trol of China by an international com¬
mission. are understood to have been
considered at the meeting of the Jap¬
anese cabinet. Viscount Uchida, for¬
eign minister, told members of the cab¬
inet, according to the Yomiuri Shim ;

made it was a matter of grave im¬
portance upon which Japan must care¬
