IF STRUGGLE TO PREVENT SPREAD OF CONSUMPTION
IS TO BE REALLY SUCCESSFUL.
It i« a work that la being done by the various societies
for the study and prevention of tuberculosis, but unb ss the people
hHp, at U‘HBt to the **xt*rit of taking ordinary precautions to avoid
contracting the disease themselves, it will be impossible ever to at
tain the full measure of success.
Neglect of a cough or cold often leads to conaupmtion. The
cough irritates the lungs and leaves them sore and very susceptible
to tubercular germs. To break up a cold quickly the following mix
ture Is most effective. Mix two ounces of Glycerine, a half ounce of
Virgin Oil of Pine cornpoud pure and eight ounces
of pure Whisky. Shake well, and take a teaspoonful every four
hours. The Ingredients are riot expensive and can be bought in any
good drug store.
It Is claimed by the Leach Chemical Co., of Cincinnati, who pre
pare the genuine Virgin Oil ot Pine compound pure, that this mix
ture will cure any cough that is curable.

RIOTS MM!
BOSTON ELECTION
BOSTON, Mass-Shortly after the
polls opened in the mayoralty elec
tion Tuesday rioting broke out in
West Boston. An Inspector at one
of the booths was badly beaten and
extra police reserves were rushed to
Ward 8, as a result of the fracas.
Sporadic disorder was reported from
other sections of the city and the po
lice were alert for trouble as a result
of the wind-up 4f the hottest mayoral
ty campaign that Boston has ever
seen.
The. early voting was the heaviest
ever known in this city. With four
candidates in the field and the sup
porters of each doing their utmost to
land their favorite in the chair now
occupied by George Hibbard, the peo
ple of Boston had been aroused to a
pitch of excitement never known be
fore and the outcome of this was
shown at the polls today. Mayor
Hibbard is a candidate for re-election.
The others contesting are James J.
Still-row, a banker. John P. Fitzgerald,
former mayor and ex-congressman!
and Nathaniel H. Taylor, a news
paper man.
f Ully $1*50,000 lias been wagered on
the election. Storrow was tiie favo
rite, the odds In some instances being
two to one. The feeling between Stor
row and tiie Fitzgerald supporters
was brought to a climax Monday
night when ail attack was made on
Storrow after his automobile had run
Into the midst of a crowd, of Fitzgerald
torchlight paraders. Storrow escaped
with difficulty and It required the ef
forts of a strong body of police to
quail IHh foes.
Tho polls opened at 6 o'clock Tues
day morning, closing at 4 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon. The weather was
favorable to a heavy vote being poll
ed and the citizens turned out early
everywhere throughout tiie city. With
in two hours after tiie booths opened
it was found that the record for early
morning balloting had been smashed.
SHE DISSOLVES.
On New Year's day I promised
I'd ask her to be mine;
She smiled and with a snicker,
I'pon her lips divine.
Said it did not matter whatever man's
resolve,
It was a woman's privilege to right
away dissolve.

JUVENILE COURT
IS ESTABLISHED
Jndge Henry C. Hammond
Signed Order. Mr. Guy
Sturgis Named Proba
tion Officer. Judge Lind
sey Approves Plans.
After signing an order Monday
morning establishing the Juvenile
court. Judge Henry C. Hammond of
the superior court appointed Mr. Guy
Sturgis probation officer. The action
of Judge HamnTbnd in endorsing the
recommendation of the April and Oc
tober grand Juries means that the
juvenile court is now a part of the
court system of Richmond county.
The fight for the juvenile court has
been in the hands of a committee rep
resenting the Associated Charities, an
j organization which has been very ac
tive in this direction. This com
mittee appeared before Judge Ham
mond Monday morning, and present
ed a plan for the Juvenile court which
had met with t{ie approval of Judge
Ben Lindsey of the Juvenile court of
Denver, Col. Judge Lindsey has giv
en much valuable assistance to the
committee* and he is known to be the
best authority on juvenile crimes and
punishments of any one in the coun
try.
In appointing Mr. Guy Sturgis,
j probation officer, it is generally re
marked that a good selection has been
made. For many years -Mr. Sturgis
was connected with the local police
force, and his present duties of bailiff
of the city court cause him to be
thoroughly familiar with his addi
tional duties. For the present the
detention of juvenile offenders will be
at Mr. Sturgis residence, where two
rooms, one for girls and the other for
boys have been placed in readiness
for such use. The young prisoners
will be paroled every twenty-four
hours.
PEOPLE’S FORUM
For Civic Righteousness.
In behalf of the Christian people of
Augusta, I wish to thank the Christ
ian gentlemen, who gave an auto
mobile to Dr. Wilkinson for the great
service he has, and is doing for Au
gusta, and Augusta’s Christianity. And
we most sincerely ask ail the minis
ters of Augusta to join hands with
Dr. Wilkinson, and take part in the
fight for civic righteousness. The
legitimate business of Augusta de
mand civic righteousness. The legit
imate business of Augusta demand it
and we must have i,t. It is right and
Just, toward God and our country;
also to our fellowmen, and it will
come if we will only work and fight
and pray to that end.
We have in Mr. Barrett, a new
mayor of strong and determined will
to enforce the law. He has already
said, that he would enforce the law,
and the better element of the people
are determined to stand by him in the
enforcement of law, and our very able
police force who have done their duty
in the past, to enforce the law under
the present circumstances will stand
by the mayor in the enforcement of I
law and order to the last with the 1
proper encouragement
Oh! If we had more ministers like
Dr. Wilkinson, and more police like
Sergt. Peoples, and more men to stand
by them; we would soon have a bet
ter city. And we believe that we have
the ministers and police, also citizens
who will stand up for the enforce
ment of the law, if they have the
proper authority and encouragement
of all concerned.
The greatest evil of our city is the
blind tigers, and the non-enforcement
of prohibition law. The prohibi
tion law is tiie grandest law on the
statue books of Georgia. Some op
pose it, because it does not totally
prohibit. Tiie eovennnnts says, "Thou
shalt not kill,” but their command

are always murderers, so it a crime,

C. Or C. DIRECTORS
HOLD MEETING
At 5:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon
the first meeting of the newly elected
board of directors of the Chamber of
Commerce will be held with President
Howard Stafford presiding.
President Stafford announces that
there is much important business to
be attended to and he desires that
every member of the board be pres

mittees for the coming year and the
election of a secretary and a traffic
manager of the organization may

says a word about the price, when
the profit is thirty to sixty per cent.
He then treats Tom, Jim and Will
and Hall and they take the around to
the next tiger or saloon. This same
man spends more money for whiskey
than he did for groceries once a
month, and sometimes oftener he gets
in the lock-up. Monday morning it
costs five or ten dollars to get him
out. And the prople have not enough
groceries and necessities of life for
the family. And she has to wash for
the public, work in service and bring
home a pair of rashins to feed little
children on or steal. And God only
knows the evil, sorrow and trouble,
shame and disgrace brought upon the
innocent, on account of the legal or il
legal sale of liquor. Now- there is a
great wrong to be righted in Augusta,
and the Christian people and citizens
demand it and they are going to have
it, by the help of God, we are going
to have a better Augusta, a purer city
and nearer to God.
