WEDDING ceremony
Committee Will Ask Legislature
to Pass Bill Requiring Prospec-
tive Couples to Submit to Being
Questioned.

A committee from the ministers Of At
lanta will see President slaton. OF the
senate, and Speaker Holder, OF the house,
within the next few days in regard to a
change in the marriage laws.
DR.. S. r. Belk, speaking for this COM
mittee, said Monday morning, at the
monthly meeting of the Evangelical Min
isters' association. that it is hoped to
have a bill introduced and passed at this
meeting OF the legislature so altering the
marriage laws that hereafter several facts
must be sworn to before a marriage IL
cense Is granted.
The aim of the ministers, as DR.. Belk
said, is to shift their responsibility to the
shoulders of the ordinary. They wish
especially for all applicants for marriage
license to swear whether or not they
have gone through the divorce courts. If
they have. they will be asked why.
Before license is granted. they wish
the man to answer these questions:
What is mis- age?
What is his parents age?
What is his business?
What has been his previous life?
Someone, too, must stand sponsor for
him.
They wish the girl to answer these ques-
tons:
What is her age?
If she is under age, has she the consent
of her parents?
DIR. Belk says that a bill embodying
these features will soon be prepared and
presented to the legislature. Acting with
him are DR.. C. B. Wilmer and DR.. A. R.
Holderby.

DECISION OF CHARLTON

MACON, Ga, July 5.-Judge Speer has
received a report from Receiver
George A. White which tells OF
the declination on the part of Judge Carl
ton, of Savannah, to sign an order per-
hitting Mr.. White to assume control of
the assets of the Savannah firm.
The Judge took the report under advise
ment and will pass upon the same at a
later date He declined to discuss the
report tonight, saying that it was a jul
dicial matter and therefore could not be
talked about for publication.
Savannah is greatly interested in what
ever steps may develop as it now looks
like a contest between the federal and
the state courts over the receivership
and who is to administer the affairs Of
the property of the bankrupt company.

since Zechariah had begun his minis
try as prophet in Jerusalem, and that
year had been crowded full of the
earnest proclaiming of Gods word as
revealed to him from time to time. It
had been year In which there had
been a marked turning of the people
TO God. The work of building the tenn
pie had been resumed with fresh vigor
and good progress had been made. And
then new difficulties had arisen. The
foes from without which had stopped
the work before and which had been
feared would interfere again had de-
manded to know by what right the
work had been resumed and they had
posted OF to Babylon to attempt to se-
cure decree from Darius to have the
enterprise stopped

eouragement filled anew the heart of

rious check in the work would prove
fatal. he felt sure.
