Too Many Legal Holidays
for Public Good.

There is getting to be 50 many legal
holidays in some states, Florida for
one, that legitimate business is often
seriously interfered with.
Besides the Sabbath day, there is al
most an average of one other legal
holiday per week throughout the en-
tire year.
Banking institutions always close on
legal holidays, school children are
often deprived Of school privileges, in
spite Of the fact that schools are
taught only five days each week, and
legal business is seriously interfered
with many times because civil papers
cannot be drawn or served legally on
legal holidays.
In many instances the public is ser
iously hampered by the multitude Of
legal holidays.
The legislatures should look into
this matter seriously and carefully
and cut out as much of it as posi-

GOVERNMENT RESTS CASE AGAINST TOM r.
 WATSON AT AUGUSTA
Prosecution Confined Work to Effort to Prove That Obscene Matter Went
 Through Mails

| Augusta, Ga, November 27.-With the adjournment of court late today the government rested its case in the trial
 in federal court of Thomas E. Watson
 of Thomson, Ga. charged with send
 ing obscene matter through the mails
 fin issues of his several publications. The ] government had introduced witnesses 1 who testified that copies of the publi- cations containing the alleged improper language had been sent through the
 mails and that Watson had signed the circulation tatements of the three pub ! lications mentioned in the indictment. 1 With the exception of another wit 1 ness, Prof. R. l.. pulliam, holding the chair of Latin at Mercer university,
 Macon, Ga, who translated into Eng 1 fish certain parts of the alleged obscene matter which had been published in
 Latin, the prosecution introduced no other witnesses, appearing to rest its 1 case solely on an effort to provo that 1 the articles containing alleged ob- scene matter went through the mails. The prosecution held that the jury l should determine whether or not the l language was obscene and whether 1 Watson was responsible for it's hav- | ing been mailed. District Attorney E. NJ | Donaldson protested against introduce l tion of almost any other feature into l the case.
 l After presenting it's witnesses, con- I sisting of John M. Barnes former Thomson postmaster, and J. Q. West, 1 present Thomson postmaster, two post office inspectors and Professor Pull 1 liam, the government read to the jury 1 and introduced as evidence the articles mentioned in the indictment as contain ] ing obscene language. Watson entered 1 a formal exception to the entry of the l four articles. contending that the entire magazine should be entered and not i parts of it. He previously had been over ruled in an attempt to force the prose- cution to enter the complete magazines. | The case will be resumed Monday. l Marvin Brown, editor of the Menace, l a magazine published at Aurora Mo-, and whom 1t was reported soon will be placed on trial on similar charges. at- l tended the Watson trial today accom- l panied by counsel

am going to tell you why Coles High Oven Range is the most complete durable and economical range and heater that human ingenuity can devise. The win ming fight against rust and corrosion in range construction has been accomplish cd by "copper-alloy iron" This alloy
 gives the needed protection to iron by the addition of copper. making the greatest rust-resisting iron yet produced, and adds many times to the life of iron. This mate rial will withstand the heat of the fire box four or five times longer than cast or malleable iron used by other manufac- turers The Hot Blast Combustion and air-tight base construction gives you perfect control over the fire. It has a level cooking surface, smoothly polished and easily kept clean and sanitary. No stove polish is needed. Just one or two rubs with an oily cloth instantly brightens it, As there are no corners or cracks for grease to collect, it saves steps. time and worry There is large ash pit and no ashes can get the floor. With this range 1t Is possible to cook with the gas half of coal, since soft coal Is half gas.
 This gas is oXidized and is saved as it rises from the bed of coals thus doubling the cooking capacity. and enables you to use the back lids for all kinds of cook
