THE ENLISTMENT Law.
Col. Mercer Tells Why He THINKS :.
Won't Work


Col. George A Mercer. before his DEPART
ure from Atlanta for Savannah FRIDAY. .
gave some interesting facts concerning sew
eral Of the changes and innovations adopted
by the states military advisory board.
In the first place" he continued. there
Is absolutely no means in Georgia of making
such an enlistment binding. excepting a
! mans honor. l don't suppose that any
young man wishing tO join a military asso-
cation would hesitate 90 sign any docu-
lnenJ agreeing to serve one year. After
ne mad tried 1t for three months, he can
send IN his resignation, and should the stats
refuse 10 accept, what are they going TO do
about 1t? He can just quit, and there's an
end of it."
Then you think the enlistment law is no
goodgn
Il don't say that, because believe it will
serve a very useful pu pose by enabling
men when they wish to cnange their resi-
oence to enter another company, without
dlihculty. We have a rule now that no
soidler can Join company when he has
served IN another, unless he has paid all his
dues and leaves his first company with a good
record. 1t is often difficult to ascertain if
applicants are desirable members under the
present system. Under that which we have
just adopted, every man when he leaves
Will get an honorable discharge if he de-
serves 1t. That will be a certificate to enter
any other military organization he wishes
What do you think of the state encamp-
ment9'
81 have no doubt that 1t will be of great
assistance to the soldiers of the state and
VIII do them an immense amount of good.
Inns year, of course, the encampment will
be sort of experiment. There is no means
OF compelling the men to go into camp if
they don't want to. - we can form no idea
OF the number of companies who will take
advantage OF the opportunity"
uniformg"
at was an Improvement very much
needed. In regiment where every COM
pauy is clothed in different uniform from
tnat worn by Others the effect is grotesque,
but when they are all clothed alike they
VIII present much more soldierly appear
ance. The idea of the advisory BOARD was
TO furnish the uniforms to the troops
for nothing, if possible. The legislature
passed law that in future not more than
$1,000 of the 81, 900 given bv the federal
government to support the Georgia militia
should be taken in arms. We, therefore
Will take from the government enough
cloth to make the uniforms, and a com
Inltiee has been appointed to ascertain what
terms can be made with a big clothing
house to make up the uniforms"
"Will the soldiers be required to wear the
state uniform at all timess"
Not by any means. When they turn out
on any company occasion, or at their own
entertainments, they will be allowed to
wear what uniforms they please. When,
however, they are called out for inspection,
or when they are called out by the governc r
as state troops, they will be obliged to wear
the regulation uniform"

Goods in Original Packages

The decision Of the Supreme
Court of the United States regard
ing the sale of liquor in original
packages in States having prohibi-
tion laws has awakened considerable
interest among produce dealers who
oppose the law of Pennsylvania
which prohibits the manufacture,
sale and use of oleomargarine.
They argue that if IA law prohibit
ing the sale Of liquor in packages
purchased in another State is un-
constitutional, that the oleomarga-
rine law is unconstitutional for the
som, reason. The constitutionality
of the Pennsylvania statute regard.
iug olcomargarine was confirmed
by the supreme Court. a lawyer
who argued the case said that that
point was fully established, but that
