A TRIBUTE TO HOWARD
MURPHY.
In The Herald's mail this morning
was (he following:
This morning I was readme one of
St. Paul’s epistles to the Cortinthians
In which was tihs familiar quotation:
"Charity suffereth lone and is kind;
charity envteth not; charity vaunteth
not itself, is not puffed up, doth not
behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its
own. is not easily provoked, thinketh
no evil: rejoloeth not in iniquity, but
re.loiceth in truth; beareth till things,
endureth all things."
It brought to my mind immediately
our pood friend Howard Murphy, who
*o suddenly and sadly left us a few
days atro. Of his many virtues the
most predominating one was charity.
Charttv was a part and the practice of
the daily life of Howard Murphy; in
deed Howard Murphy was the personi
fication of charity Old any one ever
hear Howard Murphy speak uncharit
ably of any one? Truly he was a liv
ing exponent of the above quotation,
and. being dead, "yet speaketh he."

DOES HE WANT A SLAVE?
To The Herald:
Has the young man who signed him
self “Bachelor” in a recent edition of
your paper hit the nail on the head?
In fact he yoes a little too far, he
would have a slave and not a wife.
He is right about what they are to
day, that is with a few exceptions.
But would he not rather have a slave?
Give me the wife who will stay
home while you are hard at work, one
who does not run the streets, with
other females all day and make home
miserable when you are home at night,
one who only goes out when you go,
and only goes with you.
I fully agree with your correspon
dent in all but the slaving part. Shine
this shoes indeed. But coming down
to the real (not the reel) life would
he really have his loving wife shine
his boots? Searching like him I will
remain so. F. G. S.

Strenuous Effort Being Made
By Certain Citizens to Have
Law Enforced---Have Called
Mass Meeting at Cotton Ex
change For Friday Night.
An important meeting of two hun
dred or more representative citizens of
Augusta has been called for Friday
night at 8:15 o’clock, at the Cotton
Exchange, corner of Eighth and Rey
nolds street.
There is a concerted movement afoot
for the complete abolition of the sale of
whiskey, and other intoxicants, as pro
vided by law, and allow the sale of
nothing but malt beverages, as permit
ted by law. Tomorrow night's meet
ing is for the purpose of getting ex
pressions from leading citizens —law-
abiding citizens—as to whether or not
the prohibition law is, after January
Ist, to lie strictly enforced in Augusta.
Change License Ordinance.
It is understood that city council
will be petitioned to make a consid
erable change in the saloon license or
dinance here. The new licenses are
effective January Ist and the questions
now up are whether they shall remain
at SI,OOO, as at present, and whether
as many will be issued for the coming
year as were issued at the first of this
year.
The ijiatter, in fact, has already
come before council and action was
postponed. It is said council will wel
come an expression of opinion on this
vital question from representative
Augustans and it is asked that no offi
cial steps be taken by the city until
after tomorrow night’s meeting.
It is asked by those behind tlia
movement, and, furthermore, expected,
that the question of the local liquor
traffic will be discussed tomorrow
night openly and fearlessly, and that
whatever official Augusta decides, as
to the sale of liqqor henceforth, will he
governed largely from the results of
Friday night’s meeting.

certain citizens at the meeting were
sent out Wednesday night. They state
the reasons, purposes, etc. A copy of
the invitation follows:
Augusta, Ga., December 9, 1914.
Dear Sir:
The question of license tax for so
called near beer saloons is now befora
the City Council of Augusta for dis
cussion and early action. The under
signed, together with a number of otn
er citizens, met together on last Mon
day evening in an informal and of
course unofficial way, to consider some
vital issues connected with this ques
tion. We came to the unanimous con
clusion that an effort should be made
immediately to secure an expression
of opinion from a number of represen
tative citizens upon the following
points:
First: Should the license tax for so
called near beer saloons remain as Jt
present—sl,ooo per annum—or should
it be reduced.
Second: Should the number of li
censes remain as at present or should
it be reduced to say not more than
half the number.
Third: Should the citizens and tax
payers not express themselves clearly
and definitely on what we all must be
forced to concede is an open, flagrant
violation of our state laws.
In order that the community may
be heard from on these vital questions,
you are invited to meet a large group
of citizens at the Cotton Exchange
next Friday (December 11th) at 8:15
p. rn.
