DUTIES OF PROBATE
JUDGE ARE OUTLINED
Assistant Attorney General Advises
,sict ormick Officer OF Operation OF
Act which GGes into Effect April
%.

A statement OF the duties OF judges
OF probate O: South Carolina in car
rving out the provisions OF the re-
Gently passed Quart-a-month act'
which will go into effect April %, Is
given in an opinion rendered by As
slst.n, Attorney General Claud \.
Sapp to L. G. Bell, judge of probate
for Mccormick county. The assistant
attorney general states, among othel
interpretations of the acts provis-
ions, that, although there is no direct
prohibition OF the ordering OF liquor
by citizens of other States, such action
would be contrary to the spirit OF the
act.
The opinion follows:
Your letter of the 5th inst. to the
attorney general in reference to your
duties in connection with the enforce
ment of the Law relative to the quart
a-month act has been handed me for
attention.
In reply thereto 1 beg to advise
that the affidavit required to be made
under the provisions of this act may
be made before any officer of this
State who is qualified to administer
an oath, but if made before the judge
of probate issuing the permit, ne
may charge and collect a fee OF .
, cents for administering the oath.
"You ask to be advised as to Whetn-
er or not under the provisions OF this
act citizens of the State Of Georgia
would have the right to order and re-
ceive within this State the amount OF
liquors permitted under the proyls-
ions of the act.
SIN reply thereto I beg to advise
that there is no direct or specific pro-
hibition of the right of citizens OF an
other State to receive within this
State the amount Of alcoholic liquors
permitted under the act, yet the whole
tenor of the act seems to be an ef-
fort to localize, as far as poss1bG
the receipt of liquors permitted to the
! locality of the person receiving.
Section 10 of the act requires all
persons desiring to receive alcoholc
liquors to apply to the judge OF pro-
! bate of the county in which they re-
side and file with him an affidavit
/ that he has not received any like per-
NIT during the same calendar month
Section of the act prohibits any
person from receiving any alcohollc
liquor shipped to him within the
State except at the Office OF the COM
mon carrier transporting same near
est the residence of the consignee.
81 am, therefore. of the opinion
from a construction Of the act as
whole that it was the intent Of the
legislature to restrict the receipt OF
alcoholic liquors. allowed under the
terms of the act, to citizens OF this
State and would, therefore, advise
that you issue no permits to non-resl-
dents of your county"

that they will in the future give Us
At least four months. for where there
are good schools and churches the
hands will be better for good labor.
We have been panied to learn OF 81
many people in other places not haV-

the interests of your colored labor
and keep them at home. NoW about
the war. SO much is being SAID
about it. 1t is Gods way. Read the
gath chapter of Matthew and you Will
see after all that our kood President
Wilson has done everything to keep
it back. He has shown the whole
world that he wants peace, rather
than war. Let us all pray and ask
God to guide and help US in this our
grand old United States to be VIC

Parasols are perhaps the most inter-
esting of the accessories that claim
our attention just now. They nave
been rather neglected during the
past summer, but, certainly, they are
to be made very much OF during the
coming seasons, and the days are not
so yerv far off when We shall be seek
inc protection from the sun under
them. True, many of the new para
soils make no pretense OF being USE
full as far as shielding one from the
sun goes, but they will be very USE
full in serving as a picturesque oacA-
ground for the dainty summer trocks.
The irresistible charm Of some OF
these parasols is all the excuse they
can offer for their existence. Sucn
are those fashioned of net, chlffoh,
and even lace. Some Of these are lin
ed with thin China silk, but many OF
them have not even this thin stuff as
a foundation. These are the parasols
that will grace many summer fete
and lawn party this year. To ac-
company them there are often mats
TO match of these flmy materials.
The idea of having hats and para
soils to match is not seen only Ill
these very airy and dainty sets. For
sports wear, this idea is even more
popular. Usually these are made OF
the bright sports silks in the attrac-
tive colors and designs which belong
particularly to the present year.
In shapes, the Japanese style IS
about the most popular of any. Ihe
Japaneses influence does not end Win
the shape only, however, for many OF
the silks used are scattered with JAP
anese designs and figures.
In bags, the full, puffy silk bags
with gap striped Innings and sheli
or horn mountings are the very lat
est. Bead bags are still popular, only
varying in shape from the frst Dass
of this kind.
Sets of ParasOl. Hat and Bag. :.
To have your hat and bag trimmed,
to match the parasol you carry IS
one of the smartest effects any one
can have this season, even If the
trimming is only a suggestion as
shown in the sketch. The dress IL
lustrated, is one Of those cool, airy
affairs of chiffon cloth, which mater
ial is beginning to rival Georgette
crepe for smart afternoon frocks. The
belt. woke and cuffs of this model
are of taffeta. The skirt is an eA-
tremely graceful model with softly
draped pockets at the SIDES. gl'lns
an .ttempt at the slight bouffant e1-
feet over the hips shown IN some of
the new models. The general lines
of the dress keep to the stralgnt sii-
houatte however.

 However, the wild ride was taken to Grand Rapids around the lake through some of the stiffest weather of the win ter and over some of the hardest roads, through deep snow and toughest going of the winter. These new models are the six-cylinder, seven passenger touring car and new five-passenger touring car and were driven by George Cornell and M A. Harbron, of the Western Michigan Motor company, Grand Rapids, old ex- Ferienced drivers, who said that they never had seen cars come through such trying driving conditions so perfectly.
 After battling with snow drifts and mud, slush and rough roads for over 800 miles, the cars were covered with coat ing of dirt several inches thick in many places. They were put right into the washstand and within few hours were placed on exhibit among the best look ing and highly polished cars and claimed by their new owners, who were only too glad to get them put. through this test and appear as they did as if taken right out of the factory.
