Atlanta, Ga.— Every Georgia
man who owns an automobile or
who expects to own one should
be interested in the passage of a
bill, to be presented at the pres
ent session of the Legislature,
which is designed to stop the
stealing of automobiles by mak
ing it practically impossible to
sell a stolen car. It is being
backed by prominent members
„f both houses and is endorsed by
all the organizations interested
in the automobile industry. A
similar bill passed the house last
summer but never came up for a
vote in the house, owing to the
congestion of the last few days.
The bill will follow the lines of
the law in successful operation in
Michigan and several other states
It provides, in brief, that when
ever a car is sold the seller must
fill out a bill of sale giving the
engine number and other identi
fying marks. One copy ol this
is to be sent to the Secretary of
State and one retained by the
buyer of the ear. The buyer
shall report to the sheriff of his
county within ten days and the
sheriff will inspect the car and
see that it "checks” with that
described in the bills of sale.
There is very little "red tape”
required. Penalties are provided
for altering serial numbers of
aulomociles and for forgery or
alteration of bills of sale.
The bill will protect not only
the present owners of cars, but
hundreds of innocent purchasers
of used automobiles. While most
of the thefts occur in the larger
cities, the small town and coun
try residents are frequently
"stimg” by buying a car from
stranger who gives no proof of
legal possession. The car is al
terwards traced and recovered
and the purchaser loses his mon
ey and has no redress. Hundreds
of such cases were report'd m
Georgia this year.
SOME THOUGHTS.
By Mercer Williams.
Observation and experience are
two of our greatest teachers.
What is more honorable than a
straight forward, upright life?
Don’t be a fault finder, but find
something good in everybody
whenever possible.
Why is it that we can always
talk more freely to a person’s
back than we can to their face?
Wherever good is evil is al
ways present. They both oppose
each other, but not relative, yet
they are both mighty warriors,
for evil is sometimes the con
querer and then good,
Death is the dividing line, or
line of distinction between the
earthly and heavenly existence,
Faith is belief, for when be
lieving we exercise faith, and
faith results in hope, for by faith
we have hope.

Well, I will give you a few
helpful thoughts on the subject
of selfishness.
Selfishness is nothing more or
less than the spirit of the devil,
and is denounced all through the
Bible, and has noplace in a chris
tian’s life. For the Bible tells us
that God is love, and to possess
his spirit in our lives we, too, will
have our hearts full of love and
kindness, and instead of think
ing ourselves above anybody we
would rather comply with the
Master’s word to humble our
selves in the sight of the Lord,
that when we stand before him
in judgment he shall lift us. On
that wonderful day people are
going to be surprised to see God’s
word come true They shall come
in from the east and west, north
and south, and set down in our
Father’s kingdom, and the very
fellow who has stood so high,
ready at all times to kick some
one, cast out. The little "pick
block,” in many instances, will
be the one that- has the divine
love of God in his heart. Itseems
to me that some have forgotten,
if they ever knew, that God has
a reforming power, and the Bible
tells us that he is able to save to
the utmost all that believe on his
name. All manner of sms shall
be forgiven unto men save he
that sins against the Holy Ghost,
he has no forgiveness

Selfishness is a Dull down to
the church and to the progress
of God’s cause, and our Master
says let him that would be great
among you be as a servant, as
our Master demonstrated when
he girded himself and washed the
disciples feet, taking on himself
the form of a servant
We believe that all God’s chil
dren love a meek, humble Chris
tian, but do not believe they
have any desire to shake the
hand of a selfish fighter, or kick
er. One thing we all should re
member is, a horse can’t pull and
kick at the same time.
