MOTORCYCLE HUNDRED
 MILE ROADABILIIY RUN
At Motorcycle Meeting it Is Decided to Hold Road Competition Week From Sunday to Arlington
 and Return.

Tine Phoenix Motorcycle Clubs roLdabiiity race has been postponed until Sunday. February 16. This WAS tin" decision of the joint meeting of int Motorcycle Dealers Association and the club last night at the Pio- ncer Cycle Company. 1t was because of the requests of several motorcycle riders who wished to enter that this action was taken. A most of the boys did nst know the road it will not be possible to run the compcti- ton next sunday if. the Arlington route is used
 To enable the riders to get ac- quaintcd with the route a run next Sunday. starting at a. m. has been planned. This will allow everyone who rides tc get on to the road and be familiar with the route of the race q week before it is pulled off. The meeting agreed to a few rules regarding the race. For instance. car burators, t"oIbags. oil and gds tanks will be sealed before the machincs enter the race so no tinkering can be done. The speed on the first con- trol. which will be to Cushions ranch, was fixed not to exceed twcn- ty-five miles an hour
 All that remains to be done is to get the club members together next Sunday for the sociability run. Then when all the boys see the route and hear the explanation of the rules, there is no doubt that the many en- tries predicted will come in and the race will be the success it ought.

DRUGGIST GIVES MONEY BACK
Square Guarantee From the
Tanner Drug Co.

When an article is sold by drug
gist who is willing to give it his per-
sonal guarantee it's mighty strong
proof of real merit.
That's exactly the case with bod
sons Liver Tone. 1t is a pleasant
tasting vegetable remedy for slow
and sluggish liver. Since Dodson' s
Liver Tone came on the market the
sale of calomel has gone way down.
The reason is simply this: Dodson's
Liver Tone is safe and harmless and
guaranteed to be satisfactory-Calo-
mel is often uncertain, sometimes
dangerous, and no druggist wants to
guarantee that it won't knock you
out of a days work and maybe send
you TO bed
Tanner Drug Co. sells Dodson's
Liver Tone and guarantees it. For
you and for your children it's a good
thing to keep a bottle always in the
house
Tanner Drug Co. will give you
your money back if you think bod
sons Liver Tone is not worth the
price. Keep your liver working and
your liver will not keep you from
working is good avice to go by.

1t is a soul-saving, Misunderstanding
worldwide health-preserving army,
one whose soldiers do not have to
take an examination to enlist, but
are made of finer stuff than bodily
accomplishments, but when measured

in which the whole world is engaged

generation after generation, and if
not accomplished will result in a to-

Seven years ago we would have
marveled at an assertion that Edison
was going to prepare films which will
show the effects of alcohol and to-
bacco on various organs of the body.
That great scientist is at work gath

three million dollars will be used to
complete this graded work to be used

dispensaries and saloons didn't seem
so terrible. We had always put up
with them and thought them COM
monplace things and had to exist.
But now they are entirely out of
style, and as one of our leaders told
us, fifteen years ago while walking
on the streets of Savannah his little
son, seeing so many saloons and
knowing how hard his father had to
fight them, asked this question:
Papa, why do they have them?"

Yes, comes the direct answer, when
asked in faith. How has God met
every petition, sacrifice and request
of our temperance leaders? How on
that ever-memorable day and night
when our prohibition bill was pend
ing in the house in Atlanta, when
every eye, ear and heart of our great
commonwealth was watching, listen
ing and hoping for a speedy decision
on this all-important matter, when
all was still and no message to cheer
could be issued. In a lineup so strik-
ing and unfair that no hope came to
cheer our weary and anxious hearts,
with no hope that money and liquor
could destroy, who does not doubt
that God in His own good time does
not come to the rescue with conyinc-
ing power and force that even the
Yilest wonder and stand awe-stricken
at such manifestations of divine rule?
The contrast of the lineup was strik-
ing. On one side were gathered the
destroyers of our nation, with money,
liquor and a plea that would take in
or win over the unconcerned mass of
humanity. On the other side were
the faithful few whose souls were
baptized with the Holy Ghost and
whose faces reflected the presence of
Him who had promised to sustain and
be with them in that all important
time, whose faith in Him was so great
that in a silent and eventful moment
God ruled and all was well. Can we
count the victories won since then?

TROUBLE FOR GAME WARDENS
At Least That's What Seems to Be
Brewing For Present Incumbents
When New Warden Goes in.

At Least That's What Seems to Be
Brewing For Present Incumbents
When New Warden Goes in.
A statewide complication is on
the verge of rising and perhaps re-
sulting in a serious wrangle in con-
nection with the appointment of new
county game wardens this fall. The
appointments made by the retiring
commissioner, J. E. Mercer, may fall
foul of new appointments to be made
by the new commissioner, Charles A.
Davis
1t will be recalled that Governor
Stations appointment of Davis does
not become effective until November
1 and that Mercer is still state com
missioner. During the present month
some of the old county appointments
expired, or were about to expire, and
Mr. Mercer has appointed a great
many county wardens throughout the
state to serve for the ensuing two
years. Mr. Davis, whose appointment
was announced a month ago, expect
ed as the new warden to appoint his
own deputies and to distribute the
patronage of the state office. If the
Mercer appointees refuse to give up
their commissions it will mean that
Mr.. Davis will have mighty little pat
ronage to distribute unless he can
GUST the Mercer appointees by going
to court. What Mr.. Davis proposes
to do is not known, and there is some
question as to what the law is on the
subject
1t is said that Governor Slaton oc-
cupies a neutral position on the sub
ject and will not be drawn into the
controversy.
