PLAN TO PRESERVE
FLAVOR OF PEACHES
Georgia Fruit Growers to
Have Preceding Plant
in Atlanta

The full flavor of the luscious Georgia
peach Is about to be transferred to the
the juicy Elberta, the delicious taste of
the Belle of Georgia and other famous va
rieties of this state will be put on the
markets throughout the whole country
this season, just as they taste when gath
cred fully ripe in the orchards. Not only
this, but by reason of this remarkable
feat, membets of the Georgia fruit ex-
change, are to be made the gamers, for
there will be an increased price paid for
the Georgia peach a thousand miles from
home.
This has been brought about through
the agency of l. NJ. Fleming, of the Geor-
gia fruit exchange, who has so inter-
ested l.. A. Roy, of Chicago, the rep
resentative of the intermittent vacuum
preceding company, that he has come
to Atlanta, where today he announces
positively he will erect a preceding plant
for the use of the members of the Geor-
gia fruit exchange this season, and follow
it up with as many more as 1t may be
found necessary to care for the Georgia
peach crop.
Mr. Roy. who is at the Piedmont ho-
tel said: II have long had my eye
on Georgia and her famous peach crop.

with the growers as Independent ship
pers. but now, that you have such
splendid peach growers organization In
your Georgia fruit exchange, it Will
be easy to arrange matters.
At present the heated fruit is loaded
into the refrigerator car and started on
Its journey. Every few hundred miles
the car has to be re-iced at a great cost
to the shipper, and in addition, the fruit
inside being cold on the skin and hot at
the core, undergoes first a ripening and
then a decaying process.
BY the preceding method this same
refrigerator car is loaded with fruit, just
as hot as it is in the orchard. This car
is sent to the cooling shed. There. the
fruit is chilled fom skin to core. BY
the vacuum treatment ii is insulated
against heat and hence remains cool. AS
a result the shipment arrives at its des-
tination i'm perfect condition. The ship.
per gets frst-class price for his ship
ment. This process promises to revolu-
tionize the peach growing industry
throughout the country, and the Georgia
fruit exchange is the first to enjoy the
advantages of the perfected system.

CHICAGO-But the darkness of fate"
has lifted from the brow of Mrs. Hannah
Jacober. True she still sits at her sew
ing machine in her little fiat here and sews
early and late. She is only 80, a widow
and the mother of three little children
The beautiful face that once rippled in
smiles is now furowed with lines of care.
And the tenseness of her work as she
knits the wrinkles into a frown is un-
broken.
It's a wonderful story of mother love
love that brought light through thick
darkness TO the Jscober household. The
wolf whose fangs she could almost feel
once. has been distanced by this widow
ed mother. And her self-denial and her
hard work have made her home a little
place of glory all to herself and the
children. It's her heaven-the heaven she
found by love and hard work on hard
earth.
Five years ago the Jacobers, a happy
family, came here from the far away
Then the husband died.
For year and half the
woman. speaking little English. strug-
gled. But she was brave. She knew If she
could do some work like that to which
her social position in Germany would en-
title her, she could keep the wolf away.
So. with fingers unused to toll, she sew
ed at night and studied as common
pupil in the Robert Waller high school by
day.
At first the foolish youngsters who
crowd the high schools laughed at her
Their gibes made the tears come when
she sewed each night. But she kept on.
Suddenly, after three years of hard
work, the clouds lifted. Everybody was
her friend The world, that had grown
so cola and gray. was letting in the sun
light to her and her little ones.
When Mrs. Jacober gets her diploma
in a few days she will be ready to start
a course of training in the city normal
school. and before long she will be
teacher.
Lunch money. books and other neces-
saries were gained by her working around
the school building.
You really must excuse me-" was her
reply, when asked about her brave strug-
gle. 1t was in language you don't often
hear after climbing TO the third floor
rear.
81 couldn't bear to be poor and bring
my children up to the grind and horrors
of poverty. So l began studying nights.
My baby was too young TO leave with the
other children during the day. When the
baby got older l started to the Waller
nlgn scnOol. Inat was three years ago.
The regular course lasts four years. But
took double work. ] never had less
than six subjects at a time
Will Mrs. Jacober be a good teacher?
Authorities on education say she viii.
For out of her depth of misery has come
a softened soul. a soul with kindness to-
ward all, but most of all, to little chill
dren, like her three, and like the ones
she will teach It will be a blessing 10
her. the day she starts to teach, and
blessing to the children who are her pu-
pills. too.

.PROH|BH|ON|sTs WON'T
PLACE TICKET IN FIELD
President Dudley, of Muscos
gee Anti-SaIoon League, De-
MES Report of Candidates
Especial Dispatch to The Journa

NOpCCidl DlSpdlCu 10 INC JOuFndi-y
COLUMBUS, Ga. Feb. 4.-President r.
y. Dudley. of the Muscogee county ANTI
Saloon league. is authority for the stated
ment that the prohibitionists of Georgia.
will not attempt to place a state ticket
in the field this year. In an ieterview{
on the subject, President Dudley, who ID
considered one of the best posted MEM
bers OF the temperance forces in the state.
says in part: Prohibition is not to be
side-tracked and the prohibition forces
are not to be entrapped in a scheme to
advance the interests of any set of men
or party bidding for political preferment-
Whether this movement to organize q pro-
hibition party in Georgia is plan to
split the forces favoring prohibition and
law enforcement, or whether it Is actu-
ated by motives to create a new political
party, or to strengthen the national pro-
hibition party, am unable to answer; but
this thing is certain, that prohibition in
Georgia is not a child of the prohibition
party but IL is the result of agitation
due to the efforts of the Anti-Saloon
league, which is the acknowledged leader
of the movement.
1.-The league in non-partisan and nom
sectarian: it is the church in action
against the saloon and the sale OF intox-
icants. Its policy being advisory, It seeks
to aid in the selection of the best men
for Office its departmental work con-
sists in aggitation, education and law en-
forcement.
1.-THE candidates for office are catechised
on questions germaine to prohibition, and
those who announce as being against the
saloon and who favor strengthening the
law. and believe in law enforcement are
preferred to those non-committal to pol
lev, irrespective of party.
Prohibition in Georgia came about
through the vote of men holding allegi-
ance to the Democratic party, and I APP
prehend that the same influence will Sc
cure legislation on the subject to make
the laws more effective.
1.-The law as it stands is open to PERM
cious practices and needs to be more spe-
cific in some respects, but this is fam
lily affair and Georgians will apply the
remedy"

POSTAL BANKS GIVEN
DISCUSSION IN SENATE
Responsibility of Government
for Paying Deposits Is Civ
en- Some Consideration

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5-The response
bfiity OF the government for the payment
OF postal savings deposits was discussed
in the senate today during the consider
alton OF the postal savings bank bill
Senator Burton. Of Ohio. asked Mr..
Carter. I'm charge OF the measure. wheth-
er the government would bear the rela-
ton OF trustee or that OF debtor to the
postal deposition. Mr.. Carter replied
that the relationship would be that OF
creditor and debtor. but he had no doubt
that the demand OF depositOrs on the
banks would be 50 promptly met by the
banks as to avoid embarrassment 10 the
government
OHICskN'S SUPERSTITION.
But suppose" persisted the ohiOan.
that in the end the money should not
be paid overt
Then" responded the M0tnana sena-
tor. the government would be liable.
Mr.. Burton wanted 20 know II IL was
not possible that at times Of stress the
funds OF the banks would be unavailable
10 deuosftors Mr. Carter thought. how
eevr, that the postal funds would be sub
ject TO check at all times for any OF the
purposes outlined by the bill. and he
considered any other contingency as very
remote
IF the banks OF one state fail TO meet
the demand then they can set funds from
other states" he said. IF the banks in all
the states should fail then the depositor
would fall back on the government
When Nr. Burton sought 10 ascertain
whether a proper reserve had been pro-
rided to meet this contingency. Mr. Car
ter said that a provision looking TO that
erd was being gradually perfected and
he expressed confidence that proper
method wound be found.
Senator Smith. OF Michigan. expressed
apprehension lest the effect Of the meas
urs would be TO attract to the banks the
money which otherwise might be employ
ed more advantageously in commerce and
dwelt at some length upon the evil ef-
fecfs of enticing people from methods OF
business. which would encourage them TO
depend upon their own powers Of ini-
ftatfve.
