The case Of the state against Elan
from Richardson county was argued I'm
the supreme court today. This case was
considered Of sufficient Importance by
the court to induce the judges to advance
II for immediate hearing. II involves n
regulation OF the state food commissioner
prohibiting buyers Of cream 10 pay for
II the day Of purchase, the object OF the
regulation being to render more certain
that the cream would actually be tested,
experience having shown that during the
busy season, especially when 1t was
paid for as received. the testing was
omitted because OF lack Of time, hut
where II was not paid for until the next
day sample was saved during rush
times and this was tested during the
later hours of the day when the rush
was over. The defendant refused to COM
ply with the regulation. was arrested and
discharged, the lower court holding that
the regulation was not warranted by law,

but was discharged. and then brought |
suit against LYDIA. whom he alleged In

Judgment for 81 In Gerings favor re-
suited and LYDIA appealed. not because
Il would not have been cheaper to pay
the dollar. but because hewanted to test
the principle whether druggist could
sell liquor on Sunday and because he as
serts that IL parties are to be penalixed
for attempting to aid in the enforcement

precedent. Gering asserts that the prose- i
