Seldom, apparently, has there been
potatoes in Georgia as the present one
proved to be. Pick up weekly paper
after paper and it is found that in
nearly every county, especially in the
Southern section of the state, the later
crop has been unusually large and of
exceptional. quality.
Not only has the outturn of potatoes
to the acre been unusual this season,
but the instances in which the tubers
reached a prodigious size, without in
the least deteriorating in quality, null
tiplying on all sides. Old Mother Earth
this year simply seems to have bent
all her energies toward turning out
sweet potatoes as never before.
Sweet potatoes make a profitable
crop in Georgia. Not only are they in
demand in every city, town and viii
lage, not only are they of prime SER
vice in the farmers home as food, but
the canneries have clamored for them.
Canned sweet potatoes are a great
staple these days, selling all the year
round and all over the country They
net a substantial profit to him who
grows them and to him who packs
them.
Sweet potatoes of the Georgia va
riety are infinitely superior to the
dry, mealy, juiceless variety grown in
New Jersey and other Northern pro-
ducing states. The potatoes grown
here derive elements of honied sweet
ness from the soil that fully justify
the name that has been given to them.
repare them as one may, baked in
their jackets. baked with pork. or pos
sum or beef, boiled and fried, or fried
raw. candied or spiced, the Georgia
sweet potato is a toothsome morsel
that the general world outside Dixie
only needs to be made better acquaint-
ed with to create tremendous de-
mand. They can be eaten daily while
they last, and under proper care they
can be carried for months. They are
one of natures great food provisions
the cultivation of which is far from be-
ing as general as it might be- They
ought to be the boast of the South,
along with its rice and it's sugar cane,
its cotton and its corn.

SOMETHING WRONG IN GEORGIA,
APPARENTLY.

The news comes, via Atlanta, that d
Savannah liquor house, operating
brazenly in defiance of the state law,
is sending out circulars wholesale to
all parts of the state, offering to deliv-
er certain quantities of whiskey on
receipt OF money order, shipment be.
ing made Immediately, from Savannah
of course, on receipt of the money.
Furthermore, the news item states,
Gov. Brown and other state officials,
when shown the circular letters as
evidence of the contempt for the law
and its open, fragrant and defiant vio-
lation, stated that there was nothing
they could do, that 1t was the duty Of
the solicitor general and sheriff to see
to the enforcement of the law.
If this is really a true presentation
of the case there is something radical
ly wrong in Georgia. and the sooner 1t
is righted the better.
If the governor and other state Of
fcials have no authority to bring about
the prosecution OF a fragrant violator OF
state law, when local officials re-
fuse to take cognizance of such cases,
then it is clearly up to the legislature
to see that full authority is conferred
upon the governor.
The governor of Georgia ought to
have the power to summary suspend
from office any solicitor general or
sheriff who fails to do his duty. II
such a penalty with subsequent i'm
parchment, were hanging over their
heads, the state would probably hear
less, and see less, of such officials ig-
noring violations of law. There would
be no such cases as that reported from
Savannah, there would be greater re-
spect for the law generally, and con-
ditions In Georgia would be speedily
and vastly improved,
1t is farce to permit existing con-
ditions to continue, if they are as stat
ed. The governor of a great state
like this ought to be entrusted with
adequate power to see that the laws
are enforced, and one of the first con-
ditions Of such enforcement is the
right to remove officials who are dere-
lict in their duty in enforcing the pro-
hibition law or any other law to the
best of their ability.
1t may be that the circular letters
sent out by the Savannah house have
not been brought to the attention of
the authorities there. 1t Is hard to
believe that they would acquiesce in
such contempt for the state statutes
as these circulars would seem to in
dictate. But there has been so much
open disregard of this and other laws
that the public is quite inclined to be-
lieve anything. But whatever the facts
in this especial case, another session
of the legislature ought not to end
without ample power being placed in
the governors hands to cover such
cases that may arise hereafter.

FIGHT KID FRATS
Pan-HeIIenic Urges Rule to
Prevent Law Violation.
High School Boys Seem to Like
Trouble.

Lawrence. Kan, Nov. 20.-A blow
which will be more serious to hlgn
school fraternities than the most de-
termined opposition of school boards
was the action taken by the University
of Kansas Pan-Hellenic at meeting
at Phi Gam house At that meeting
the Pan-Hellenic adopted a resolution,
of which the main points are these:
The an-Hellenic favors the en-
forcement of the Kansas law prohibit
ing fraternities in high schools;
The Pan-Hellenic is opposed to the
principle of allowing high school fra
ternities to exist in high schools;
And the Pan-Hellenic will do all IN
its mower to assist in the enforcement
of the law.
1t is in that last proposition that the
menace to the high school fraternity is
TO be found The Pan-Hellenic is the
organization which represents the ma
tionaI fraternities of the university.
speaking for them as group on mat
tiers in which all are interested. the
Pan-Hellenic has in its power very
effective and very simple means of help
ing to get the law enforced, and that
is to pass rule providing that no mem
Der of a high school fraternity shall
be admitted as a member to any uni
versity fraternity.
Rule to Bar Frats.
Such a rule is now in process of being
drafted. 1t was not passed at the first
meeting of the Pan-HelleBSc because
there was some doubt as to the most
effective way of stating the rule. Then,
too, the fraternity boys on the hill are
not trying to punish any particular per
sons, but are endeavoring to esta blish
a rule that will apply in the near fu-
ture, after all persons interested have
had chance to know of its provisions.
To many high school fraternity men,
the kid frat of the high school is ap-
preciated more as a stepping stone to
future social success than for any merit
which it possesses of itself. To these
members, the rule which the university
fraternities contemplate would be a
serious blow, stopping the ambitious
high school man l. his upward climb
as soon as he was ready for college
work
Some of the high school fraternity
members have expressed themselves as
not caring about the Pan-Hellenic's ac-
ton. IF we are kept out of frater1s;ties
on the hill, Wen start one of our own"
said one of them.
