It is one thing to make soda
crackers that are occasionally
good.
It is quite another thing to
make them so that they are
always better than all other
soda crackers, always of un-
carrying goodness.
The name "Uneeda" -stamped on
every biscuit means that if a million
packages of Uneeda Biscuit were
placed before you, you could choose
any one of them, confident that every
soda cracker in that package would
be as good as the best Uneeda Biscuit
ever baked. Five cents.

Applies to Any Place.

"The act" says Justice Evans, zap
plies to any place, irrespective of the
manner of the sale, whether conducted
secretly or openly. Much stress has
been laid on this term blind tiger a.
indicating restriction of the act to
places where spirituous, malt or in
toxicating liquors are furtively sold,
and the exclusion of places where such
intoxicating liquors are sold in open
defiance of the law. We do not think
the use of the term blind tiger in
the body of the act narrows the scope
of the title Blind tiger is a COLO
quialism, or slang term. 1t sometimes
applies to the vendor; again it applies
to the place of sale, and, in still other
cases, characterizes the device used
by the vendor. Our statute uses the
name in the generic sense"
This decision deals a death blow to
liquor men in Savannah, Augusta and
other places who have been and still
are openly engaged in the dispensing
of liquors in defiance of the state pro-
hibition law, leaning back on the idea
that the state as to blind tigers did
not apply to them, because they were
working with both eyes open.

''TIGER'' OR NOT, LIQUOR SALE
IS HELD VIOLATION OF LAW
Supreme Court Holds it Doesn't Matter if is Sold Openly
Or on Sy-Decision in Savannah Case

Idismissing the petition for injunction
A new trial was refused, and now or
appeal the supreme court reverses the
lower court.
Several grounds were set up for err
ror by the liquor people. The supreme
court held that failure to specify the
brief of evidence as part of the re-
cord, did not constitute fault, but If
necessary to proper adjudication OF
the case, this court of its own motion
will cause a certified copy transmitted
to the clerk of the supreme court
1t was further held that an amend
ment to allow the naming of all the
petitioners was admissible, and thar
the inadvertent use of defendant"
for plaintiff" formed no tenable
ground for reversal. 1t is then held,
which forms the milk in the cocoanut.
1T is no defense to a proceeding
brought under sections 5335-6-7 of the
civil code to abate and enjoin a blind
tiger, as nuisance that the sale of
spirituous, malt pr intoxicating IL
quors was an open violation of the
law"
The decision, written by Justice Ev-
ans and concurred in by all of the JUS
tees, says that the controlling ques-
ton was the correctness of the court )
instructions that a blind tiger is a
place where spirituous, malt and intoX-
icating liquors are sold in violation Of
the law on the "sly"-not openly, but
sold on the sly'-and that if the de-
PENDANTS sold in their place of bust
ness, but did not sell "on the sly, the
plaintiffs would not be entitled to Il
verdict

Miss SalIie Baker EltertainS.

Never has there been a better IL
lustration of the true Southern hos
pitaIity for which the people of
Scotland Neck are noted far and
wide than Thursday Of last week
when at the residence Of Mr.. and
Mrs. L. j. Baker, Miss Sallie Baker
entertained at a charming luncheon
in honor of Misses Lena Leggett and
Katherine Futrell. two October
brides.
The hame had been attractively
decorated for the occasion and the
dining room presented scene that
could not fail to satisfy both the
inner" and "outer" man.
The center piece was a bowl Of
white enchantress carnations and
fern, while from the chandelier was
suspended a huge bunch Of green
fern, with interesting packages Of
all shapes and sizes tied to it. From
these packages streamers of blue
ribbon fell, with the place cards, on
which were painted three blue birds,
attached.
After an elaborate seven course
luncheon had been served, the hos
tess cut the fern from the chande-
lier and the bundles, daintily wrpped
shoWered down. Amid much merri-
ment the guests drew the ribbon
attached to their place cards and
each one found a beautiful spin or
thimble, the two guests Of honor re-
ceiving three blue bird pins, symbol
izing the good luck and happiness
al present wished for them.
After spending a pleasant hour in
conversation and music, the COM
pany separated. Besides the guests
of honor, there were present
Misses Anna Kitchin, Maud, Hattie
and Lizzie Leggett, and Undine
Futrell, and Mrs. C. J. Shields and

ural riches from waste and dissipation.
We hear much now concerning the ef-
forts to save our forests to conserve our
coal supply. to utilize water power go
ing to waste, to restore barren lands,
to increase soil fertility, to apply the
principles of scientific management to
business
The great molders of public opinion
have taken up this cause. For instance,
Golfers Weekly says: Both In this
country and in England a great deal
of money is going to be needed in the fu-
ture for certain large humanitarian meas
ures-old-age pensions, pensions for
mothers, and the like. In England there
from those who now have it. In this
country, more fortunately. we have re-
serves of natural wealth which are still
the common property of all. Properly
conserved. there will be enough to fin
ance our humanitarian programme. and
We will not need to take anything away
from those who already have it,
The spirit of conservation Is in the air.
We seem bound to prevent waste in the
nation, in the state, In the city, in the
factory and on the farm.
The question is, has this new con-
sciousness of the need of economy ex-
tended as far as the home and the in
dividual?
We believe 1t has to some extent, but
we Americans, as a people are still far
too extravagant. For example, the gov
ernment reports on the consumption of
sugar. including candy. show that the
annual bill for sweets In the United
States is s4o0, 100000.
Strange as 1t may seem, the people of
the United States head the world in the
total amount of savings deposits but are
we'll down in the list when 1t comes to
the number of savings depositors. Ger
many, Japan, Great Britain, France, are
all ahead of us in this particular
Fourteen of the 81 principal coun-
tries of the world are ahead of us
In the number of savings depositors per
1000 inhabitants.
In Switzerland more than half the
people are savings depositors. while only
about Is per cent of the people of the
United States are savers.
This proportion is not one which speaks
well for the thrift of the average Amer
lean. Are we more spendthrift peo-
pie than thrifty people?
Dr. George K. Holmes, of the agri-
cultural department at washington. has
been studying the problem of the high
cost of living. Among the factors to
which this government expert refers as
being responsible for high living cost
are the luxuries and pleasures now de-
manded as a matter of course by every
one.

the vote of the chamber. The general
strike had thus produced all the re-
suits that could be expected and for
this reason the socialist congress
should be asked to order an immediate
resumption of work.
The same leaders viii propose a SIM
liar resolution in the congress tomor-
row. It cannot be denied that there Is
a certain amount of dissatisfaction, par
tlcnlarly among the miners and textile
workers. Two thousand of the latter,
employed at Verviers, met today and
voted by an overwhelming majority to
continue the strike. But the rank and
file among the strikers. while they sus-

Settle Concluding Speaker
T. 8. Settle was the concluding speak
er of the evening. He outlined the
plans for inaugurating the recreation
movement and said that the first thing
conditions Then board of recreation
similar to a board of education was
necessary This board would look after
recreation work
1t would also be expedient he said,
to appoint a superintendent of recre-
alton. Mr.. Settle said that his asso-
citation was not interested In play
grounds solely, but in the wider field
of recreation. He spoke of the growth
OF the organization since it was formed
IN 1906 and said that this showed that
1t filled q long felt need. He also de-
clared that his association not only
meant to provide recreation for the
children but for the adults as we'll
and not only for the summer months
but for the year round.
Hayes Will Address Congress
Frank J. Hayes, vice president of the
United Mine Workers of America arrived
in Birmingham last night from West Vir-
gfnie and will address the Alabama
Sociological congress tonight. Mr.. Hayes
has been directing the great strike among
the miners OF West Virginia, which has
been in progress for several months. Mr..
Hayes was very optimistic over the out
look for satisfactory settlement in that
field. He said that he really should
have been In West Virginia to attend
a conference of the miners held yester-
day, but he felt that he ought to attend
the congress in Birmingham.
