The state OF Georgia received its
first return from the new inheritance
tax Tuesday. when check from
Newton County for the sum OF S64.20
reached Treasurer Speer.
This welcome visitor quite upset
the establishment for a time, az the
impression was growing more or less
insistently Ia the Treasury Depart
ment that maybe the Legislature in
tended the inheritance tax law as
quite a nifty little joke, and that
really, nobody was going to take 1t
seriously.
1t was enacted into law in August
and went into effect Immediately.
Between that time and this several
persons have died in Georgia, well
known and otherwise, but the returns
by way OF the inheritance tax have
been nix. up TO the time the Newton
County check blew in.
Now that somebody has broken the
ice. Treasurer Speer has renewed his
hope that few people, anyway, viii
take the inheritance tax law quite
seriously, and after a while there may
come more or less steady flow into
the treasury from that source
The Inheritance tax law is the joint
work of Mr.. Cole. of Barlow, and Mr.
Swift, OF Muscogee, and is modelled
along the lines OF those inheritance
tax laws I'm other States that have
proved to be result producing. 1t
was the idea OF the gentlemen pro-
posing and pushing the Georgia law
that under its operation the income
to the State might be increased per
haps as much as 100000 or more per
annum-and they still believe that
will be the case, II the law is en-
forced as its provisions say 1t shall
be.
There is some litigation on now
with respect to this new law, but up
to the time of the Newton County
contribution to the State Treasury
nothing had come in voluntarily.

Department OF Alabama, is in Atlanta

is allowed to continue, grave all

There is, however, no occasion for
alarm, and the sensible thing to do
but 1t should be done instantly
Is to give the baby small dose of
a mild laxative tonic. In the opin-
ion of a great many people, among
them such well-known persons as
the parents of Bertha Lee Wood

the proper remedy is Dr. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin. Mrs. I. N. Woodland
says that little Bertha was troubled
with constipation for over a year,
and that after trying several differ
ent kinds of remedies she found
her relief in Syrup Pepsin. II is
a mild, pleasant tasting laxative,
which every person likes, does not
grippe nor cramp, and contains that
most excellent of all digestants, pep

DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is es-

HOSPITAL
Congregations Enter Campaign
for Greatest TotaI-Atanta to
Raise 100000,

The campaign committee Of the
Atlanta Association for the Greater
Georgia Baptist Hospital went back
to its work Wednesday morning with
renewed vigor, following meeting
the previous afternoon at which two
big subscriptions, one for $4,000 and
one for 1000, were announced as
promised" The idea is to raise
$1,000 in Atlanta by February |, af-
ter which the State Association or
Georgia Baptists is to raise another
100000.
AT the Tuesday meeting the pastors
of the leading Baptist churches of
the city were present, as well as
several prominent laymen. The an
nouncement of the big subscriptions
was made by +. J. Coolidge, chair
man, at whose offices the meeting
was held.
A challenge was given by repre-
sentatives OF the Ponce DeLeon Ave-
nue. Baptist Church 10 the First and
Second Churches to engage in a
three cornered race as to which
should raise the most money. Each
of the three churches expects to top
the $25, 900 mark.
The Georgia Baptist Hospital was
purchased from the old Tabernacle
Infirmary in March, 1918. and since
that time has cared for 500 patients.
The total amount of work done to
date amounts to $4,000, great deal
Of charity work being included. Al
ter the raising of the 5000, 900, the
present property is to be sold, at an
estimated price Of s125,0oo, which is
a fair value
Then a new site will be purchased
and a commodious and thoroughly
modern building erected, equipped
not only for caring for patients. but
also for the training school work of
a larger number of girls.
