PER CAPUA GAS
COST IN THIS STATE
ED UK.II. BUT MOKE IS
I’AID BY OTHERS
Automobile owners of Georgia
year paid ari average of $21 per
ita in taxes on ........according gasoline
to statistics compiled at Washington.
While this total is high, the figures
show that Floridians paid $2K, and
motorists of South Carolina contri¬
buted an average of $25. The sur
vey upon which the figures are based
was made by the American Motorists’
Association. Alabama and New Mex
ieo autoists paid the same as those in
this state. The gasoline tax in
Ida, South Carolina and New Mexico
is 5 cents per gallon. In Alabama
and Georgia it is 4 cents.
The survey shows that the small¬
est tax for 1928 was paid by motor¬
ists of North Dakota and Minnesota,
each paying an average of $8, In
Kansas, Missouri and Wisconsin the
average was $9. An analysis of the
taxes paid by automohilists in the
forty-eight states and the District of
Columbia shows the average per cap¬
ita tax was 2.7(1 cents per gallon.
During 1927 the gasoline tax was in¬
creased in twenty-three states, while
in New Jersey and Illinois the tax
was levied for the first time. The
tax was declared to be unconstitu¬
tional in Illinois, however, and was
discontinued on February 25, 1928.
The supreme court of Illinois passed
on the question of constitutionality.
Only two states are now in the
tax-free column, respectively New
York and Massachusetts ,in the sense
this toll has never been exacted. 11 ,
lmois. of , course, is not called „ , upon to ,
foot the motorists’ gasoline hills as j
referring to taxation because of the
decision of the court. From a stand
point ol revenue, California is in fH si |
place, the motorists last year paying
into the treasury a total of $22,467,
OH.'l, or an average of $111. Ohio was
second .each motorist having paid an
average of $1:1, the treasury receiving
$19,910,4X1. In Pennsylvania, motor¬
ists paid $11 each, and the state’s
revenues were increased by $17,290,

linn ol Kish’s Pharmacy, will become

Dr. R. M. Lee, the present owner of
the business, acquired it from Ralph
Kish on March first, last, and since
that time has served to increase its
popularity, broadening its stock and
has added as handsome a line of drug
fixtures as can be found anywhere in
the south. This has called for a to¬
tal outlay of something like $(1,000,
and l)r. Lee thinks it has been a wise
investment and is delighted with
Brunswick, which he thinks is the best
fit>, as well as the most rapidly
growing one ill the country,
Since his short residence in this city.
Dr. Lee has become closely identified
with Brunswick and her progressive
development. He is an active member
of the Young Men's club and the Ki

Mr. Loehleer was backing bis ear

o'clock when he suddenly crashed into; I

good Sunday makings from one end;
of Gloucester street to the other.
Everything from dressed chickens to

The driver of the truck, realizing cave-j i

BY SCHOOL CHILDREN
BRUNSWICK DAD APPEARANCE
OF REGULAR COLLEGE TOWN
YESTERDAY
Giving way to the spirit, of the day,
Brunswick took on the air of a college
town yesterday when the student hod
ies of the two rival schools, Glynn
Academy and Waycross High school,
literally took possession of the city.
Starting early in the morning
jan automobile parade respective and singing grid
praises of their war
riors, the rival rooters promenaded the
main boulevards of the city, and cast
,,ut their enthusiastic spirit to all who
came within earshot.
The final ceremonies were rightfully
given to the supporters of the
Academy who emerged victorious. Dui
ing the earlier part of the evening,
they very solemnly performed the lil
ual rights on a dummy coffin said to
represent the defeated Waycross loam.
An impressive procession marched in
I {Ul( j f j own Newcastle street bearing the
| supposed corpse of the vanquished
atl ,| finally when they had held
their possible, spirit the in Glynn check supporters as long tore as was in- j j
to the casket and battered it to pieces
as a final tribute to the manner in.
which the Terrors had handled the
Bulldogs in the game yesterday after- .
noon.
One of the amusing incidents which
occurred during the day was the up
pearance of a group of Glynn hoys os- ;
corting a goat up and down the street
with Waycross colors attached and the ,
rival school’s name hanging on its!
hack. The boys were parroting of a i
ditty to this effect: “Holy smoke,
wp .‘ e j, 0 t their goat, Um-na-na-na
lJm-na-na-na Bah."
Taken all in all it was a great dav
