House Amends
Medical Bill
Before Passing

Atlanta, August 9.-The medi-
cal practice bill, which was passed
Yesterday by the house, was first
shorn of some of the features that
made it so terribly obnoxious to
all physicians who were not mem
bers of the State Medical Society.
The advocates of the measure
declared that it was designed
simply to protect the state from
quackery. The opponents declared
that it savored of medical trust.
The original bill, it is said,
would have put the control of
medical practice in Georgia IN the
hands, of the Society, which is a
branch of the national organlza-
ton and would have barred all
homeopathic and eclectic physi-
clans.
The main amendment to the
measure as it now stands, however
gives both the homeopaths and
eclectics representation on the
state medical board.
The measure will now have to
90 back to the senate in its amend
ed form to be passed on again.

that Georgia's lawmakers have

which quotes certain Roman

and which goes to argue that it Is
terrible thing for Georgia to ap-
propriate money to protect Geor-

Several members of the legis-

bulletins, which they consider are
both Insulting and an attempt to
intimidate, they will have nothing
more to do with the measure.

Irrigation System In
stalled On Which
ard Truck F arm

Mr.. and Mrs. S. NJ. Whitchard
have just completed the installa-
ton of the first irrigation system
in Ben Hill County at their truck
farm on the edge of the city.
The Long Island system is the
process they are using and upon a
fifteen acre tract they have INSTALL
ed three thousand feet of under,
ground pipes, with faucets at in
tervals of every fifty and one
hundred feet. Water for the sys-
tenn is furnished by the city, and
with the use of hose and nj Eel
spray, one man can water - tract
of five acres in one afternoon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Whitchard are
we'll pleased with the system; it is
very inexpensive, the three thous'
and feet of pipe costing only $500
and with it, they will be able to
push their crops in dry weather as
we'll as when plenty of rain is
falling. They state that with the
introduction of irrigation OH their
farm, they feel that they have
truck farming down to a fine
point, and expect to make ire
mendous yield this coming season.
Last year they furnished one re-
tail house in Atlanta with over
$4,000 worth OF vegetables, which
illustrates in small measure

be made from an intelligent cul-
tivation of South Georgia soil.

Society Girl seeks Release
OF Fiance From Jail

Atlanta, Aug. 9.-Miss White,
a strikingly beautiful Blrmlng-
ham girl, and said to be mem
Der of one of the most prominent
families in Alabama, is in Attain
ia to try to secure the release OF
her sweetheart from the Fulton
county Jail.
Her fiance is George Wren, one
of three men who were convicted
in theft of diamonds in connec-
ton with a trunk robbery. There
is real romance behind the pres.
ence of the girl in Atlanta. When
Wren was convicted he obtained
a parole on which he went to
Birmingham to complete his med
ical education, promising toreturn
here to serve his sentence. While
there he met Miss White.
Miss White is taking the ques-
ton of the young mans release
up directly with the prison COM
mission. One Of the grounds of
her plea is that Wren is in bad
health.

PASSING THOUGHTS

The giver is always cheerful when
there is a crowd.
A doctor never is ill and a lawyer
never sues anybody.
Most of us will believe lie and in
sist on proof of the truth.
A reformer always seems to be dis
appointed when his reform is adopted.
Before you begin worrying about
something today remember what you
worried about yesterday.
Some folks have skeleton in the
closet, but have Judgment enough to
use it for clothes hanger.
The man who raises bantam chick
ems would question your sanity If you
raised herd of pet elephants.
AS soon as man begins to make
money he commences to talk about
the advancement of civilization.
Think of an egg staying in cold
storage for years and years wonder
ing if it will finish as an omelette or
a custard.
When a henpecked man goes to
heaven he must be always worrying
about the day when his wife will ar,
rive on the scene.
An optimist is man who tells you
how much worse luck you might have
had; pessimist is man who tells
you how much worse luck he has.
For little boys lie is "story,
for older people 1t is a "falsehood,
for politicians it is "roorback," and
for dignified folk it is a "misapplica.
ton of the facts"-but it is just as
big lie all the time.

The mayor lay on his back, facing
the mattress.
Where's that white princess OF
yours?" demanded Jackie. "She
wore brown today. Well have to
take some tucks in it," going to the
| closet and helping herself.
Here, Mabe, get into this, and live

"Oh, not here!" protested Bess Win
ters, snatching the dress from Miss
Winnings hands.
The Judge looked at Bess blankly.
"Why not?"
"Be-because!" shrilled Bess. I'm
afraid Slip into your room, that's
dear, and I'll bring the switch in

"Oh, who's afraid?" gurgled Mabel,
reaching for the gown.

The man under the bed heard the
closet door close and waited. There
didn't seem to be anything else to do.
Presently Miss Arkey reappeared.
With hysterical laughter the chang
ing of blackhaired Mabel into a raw
ishing blonde proceeded rapidly.
"There!' exclaimed Miss Vining
triumphantly, "the sheriff will never
know her in the world. Come on"

The man shrugged his shoulders.
"Bess, you scoot out and discover

list,-"would like to have me do to-
morrow and whatever it is we start
at five in the morning."
The girl hurried away.
The mayor seated himself at a
small desk and began to write. He
was still at it when Bess returned.
"She has discovered an Indian

you to go with her and open it. l

His Honor, the Mayor, hesitated for
a moment-and then, throwing con-

through. The girl turned the key in

The mayor looked brazenly at the
