THIS DECISION
IMPORTANT ONE
or APPEALS AFFIRMs CON
VCTloN OF W9IcHTsVILLE
AND VALDOsTA CLUBS.

Ia record breaking batch Of decl-
sicns handed down by tns Georgia
court Of appeals Tuesday. three ia.
yciy.ng the state prohibition law arr
OF widespread interest.
In the case Of WRIGHT, secretary vi
the Eiks' club, OF MJoon, VS. me State,
the judgment holding Wright guilty 0f
violating TIE prohibition lew is re
yeI3ed and the case remanded for re.
trial
The opinion unre5erv eddy holds tn
Macon tIks' club IN its methods OF
handling It's buffet, guilty of running a
place for the sale 81 intOxicants bn:
clears Wright OF gait in connection
with the same, because he was merety
the secretary Of the club, aud did not
anticipate in the dispensing u liquor
The fact that Wright may have
Known the law was being violated in
sh, Cub and Still did not seek to stop
II is held not necessarily to connect
him with the sales. Wright was con
yicted several months ago ard fined
$3.50.
The court says the club has the spe
officially licensed right to keep liquors
for the use Of its members, bat not 70
sell to them
In the case of Deal VS.. the State
from Vald0sta, the court rules upon
case somewhat similar to the Wright
case, but aflirms it.
Deal was secretary of the Naldosta
owls and was also the buffet manager.
He was convicted Of violating the pro
hlbitiCn law, under the guise Of run
ming locker cub on the coupon sys-
TEN In this case Deal acted as the
agent for 100 members of the Owls,
and c,dered intoAIednts for them in
Dig patches. He also helped run tic
buffet
The court rules that he is guilty Of
violating The prohibition law and
states that the coupon system us !
was in effect a sale The court states
that there can be 10 such thins, III any
circumstances, as a bona fide sale G.
hquor III Georgia.
Wherever a member of a club con.
tributes to common stock provided
by a common fund, no matter wheih -
there be profit shown, the agent OF
such fund is guilty md those Who PAL.
dcipate in it are held to be guilty also.
A locker club license, says the court
does not carry the riaat to yi3late ia,
prohibition law. The court found from
the evidence that the Valdosta Owls,
n s'N months, realized from its lock-
or club over $4,000.
In the case Of Dent VS.. the State
from Wriehtsyille, the court allirms
the conviction Of Dent, and declares
specifically that lager beer" viii be
recognized by the courts Of Georgia as
an intoXicant
Dent was accused of selling beee
and whiskey. The evidence 70 sustain
the charge of selling whsaey W IS
held insufficient, Dut the conviction
was affirmed ON the idea that the evil
dence as to the sale of lager beer
was sufficient, and that the courts
would recognize lager beer as an in.
toxicant. within the meaning of the
law.

NEW MILITARY COAT WINS
PROMOTION FOR PAUL POIRE +
Garment Lacks Beauty, but Is
Utilitarian, So He's Sergt.
Poiret Now.

Spccfdf 'dote DSspdtch 10 lHh Gun
PARIS, oct. 21.--Honors in this war
come not only to the brave. Paul Poiret.
the fashionable couturier. has won pro-
motion by designing a new military
overcoat, highly unitarian, but lacking
all the elements OF beauty which before
the war he considered so necessary for
any costume.
NJ. Poiret is known all over the world
as the inventor OF the minaret gown
and the modified Turkish trouser for
women. lie Is the artist Of gowns, and
as he designed there was tho fashion
for the world
When the war began NJ. Poiret was
modified. His army rank was that Of
"A private, but his special talents were
recognized. and he was made foreman
Of uniform factory. 1t was while
serving his country in this capacity that
he conceived the idea OF a new military
overcoat.
The garment is cut so loose that 1t
Is like bag: this permits the wearer
greater freedom OF movement than was
possible In the old garment. At night
the coat may be used as a sleeping
cover; thus the soldier may sleep more
warmly and fight better the next day.
OF beauty there Is none, but, as NJ.
Poiret says, this matters little in war
time.
Enthusiastically was the new coat re-
