MASTER JESSE M'QUEEN
is A PRIZE WINNER

The friends of Mr.. John w. Mcqueen
of this city will be interested in news of
a contest engaged in recently by his
little son, Jesse Beale Mcqueen, at the
Cutler school commencement in New
York city. The Tammany Times last
week noted that:
The winners. according to the judges
decision, were Piper first, Stafford, Jr.,
second, and Mcqueen third. George
Shotwell Piper outdistances the juniors
so far, that he ought to have been in
class by himself. Little Jesse Beale
Mcqueen read his lines beautifully, and
his negro dialect was the best ever
heard in any school contest, or for that
matter, on any stage. If the judges
had been better acquainted with the ne
gro dialect Mcqueen would have re-
eeived higher price

Mrs Henpecl. "Just tell me what you did
in the clean up line in the cellar. If
y>u mean to insinuate that your wife

1--WE decided that the entire family

rubbish about the average house ana

come to the conclusion that it is men

Mrs Henpecks busy brain went over
the various hooks and corners of the cell

the life of her think of anything that
could possibly be considered a menace to
the health of the community.

There was Mr.. Henpeck's old pipe, which
was frightful with age and strength and
which he positively refused to let ner

that.

be dispensed with-that merely take up

MUST REGISTER
IN ORDER TO VOTE
UNLESS GLYNh COUNTY CITIZENS
REGISTER THEY CANNOT
VOTE Mkt YEAR.
Have you registered?

nave you feSiSLNfeut
If not, now is a good time to do it.
Many citizens Of Brunswick and
flynn county will find next year,
when the state primaries and cleo
tiCns are held that they are not quail
ned to vote And they will find it out
too late to remedy matters.
Under the new state law, citizen
cannot register unless he pays his
late and county taxes. When he does
this and registers he is permanently
registered. After that, ali he has to
do in order to be qualified to vote Is
to pay his taxes ever year.
But here comes the ruff he
doesn't pay his takes and register six
months before the next primary
which viii probably be held next Au-
gust-he won't be eligible to vote in
that primary.
Al the present time a large number
Of citizens are paying their taxes and
getting their names registered under
tbs new permanent registration law,
as 1913 taxes are due to be pa.u on
or before Dec. 20.
a much larger number OF citizens,
however, are rather uncertain in their
mind as to what they ought to do in
the mater, and the object OF this little
reminder is to put them right.
TO be on the safe slde therefore,
IT is wise to pay ones taxes as soon
as possible and be permanently regis
tered under the new law.
The state primary next year will be
IL most important one, and everybody
will want to vote All the state Off

WILL THE RULING
WIPE OUT CLUBS?
BRUNSWICKlAHs HAVE VARIOUS
VIEWS ON RECENT WHIsKEY
DECISIONS.

There is much comment in Bruins
court Of peals in two locker club
cases from Macon. The gist Of the
decision seems 10 be in the following
paragraph from the opinion Of Judge
Richard &. russell
The fact that a club or other or
ganizatlon has pad the $500 prescrib-
cd by the tax law does not authorize
H., or any member thereof, whether
4 be fraternal CT social, to sell intO%-
eating liquor, regardless Of whether
the purchaser IS or is not a member.
brunswick attorneys hold different
views III regard to the effect Of the de-
cision. some Of them say that it does
not materially alter the present situa-
uon, and passes only upon points in
the Jaw illat already were well under
atcod
others take the view that where
money is paid for liGucr by members
can b. shown as necessary to equaIlze
the burdens and to rcplenlsh the stock
wh!cA the law allows the locker clubs
to keep, and that it is not for CONNER
cial profit Of any individual or ccm-
pany, the apparent sale may be al
lowed to come within the law.
| On the other hand some Of the law
yers
! believe that this decision will alb
/ solutcly wipe out locker clubs, except
such clubs as merely allow the mem
Lers to keep their ilquor there, Just as
| they would at home, and go there
and drink IT, The decision, they claim
| prohibits the sale" OF liquor to mem
! bers Some Cf the clubs have had an
dea that they were operating legally
! II they sold siquor TO club members
only: and not to visitors or nonmem
bers. This decision knocks that out,
according to this view.
The situation is an interesting one
and there is no telling what the Bruins
wck clubs Will do.

SECTION
A BUSY DISTRICT
CHRISTMAS BUYERS REALIZE
THAT ONLY TEN MORE
DAYS REMAIN.

There is sufficient reason why the
stores should be unusually well filled
with shoppers at this particular sea
son Of the year, for in addition to that
vast number of shoppers, mostly wom-
en-, who may be found scanning the
merchandise on any day of the week
year round, during the Christmas sea
son many enlist in the army Of buy
CTS through sheer necessity or the
situation, for the number whom Christ
mas givingg does not affect is compar-
atively small
CT how the merchants can bear
their brunt of the burden, and are
never forced to display in the window
sold out sign, little is known, and
it must be only from long experience
with such situations that their stocks
survive the ferocious onslaughts.
As to what may be purchased in the
stores, it is merely a matter of 1mag-
ination that is before a personal in
spection, for anything beyond that
realm can be supplied by look on
the counters.
One is safe in his selections while
in the realm of the toy store, however
for the wealth of mechanical toys is
of such variety that even the most
uninterested will pause for a w.hel
longer for further evidences that the
ingenious invention is really human.
The dry goods stores are so well
known to one-half of mankind as to
need no reference to them. And so it
goes in alil lines of stock.
Apparently the only moral adequate
for a subject so large is a reminder
that there are. only 10 more shopping
days before Christmas.
