SHERIFF KNOWS 1T
BY THE SIMPLE SMELL

Atlanta, Dec, 17--If one smell OF
whisky is enough to knock sheriff
over in open court, what would one
drink do?
The white Tightening manufactured
in these parts these days must be
the strongest that was ever distilled
in moonshiner's dugout, judged by
the effect a Whit of it had on sher-
if McCurdy of DeKalb county in the.
court house in Decatur yesterday.
A negro on trial for selling whisky
claimed that the stuff he sold was
something else, and the judge asked
the sheriff 10 smell of it and render
expert testimony. The sheriff pulled
out the cork, took one Whit, and fell
IKE 81 drunken man.
No further doubt existed as to the
nature OF the stuff the negro had
been selling, and the judge sent him

What they Are War Savings

stamps are the answer OF a great de-
mocracy to the demand for a demo-
cratic form of government security.
They are "little baby bonds" Like
Liberty bonds, they have behind
them the entire resources of the Gov
eminent and people of the United
States. They have the additional
advantage that they steadily increase
in value from the date of purchase
until the date of maturity, and this
Increase is guaranteed by the Gov
eminent These stamps are issued
in two denominations, the 25-cent
stamp and the S. stamp.
For the convenience of investors a
Thrift Card" is furnished to all pur-
chasers of 25-cent stamps. This card
has spaces for Is stamps. When all
the spaces have'been filed the Thrift
Card may be exchanged for stamp
al post offices, banks, or other author
lied agencies by adding II cents in
cash prior to February 1, 1918, and
cent additional each month thereaf-
ter.
Those who prefer may buy S.
stamp outright. These will be on
sale from December 3, 1917 until Jan
rary 81, 1918 for $4.12. They auto
matically increase in value cent q
month every month thereafter until
January /, 1923, when the United
States will pay SIS at any post office
or at the Treasury in Washington for
each stamp affixed to a War-Savings

When you purchase a SIS stamp
you must attach it to an engraved fol-
der known as a "War-Savings Certifi-
cate'a which bears the name of the
purchaser and can be cashed. only by

RAISE MORE HOGS
HELP WIN THE WAR

Atlanta, Dec, 17-"Help win the
war by raising more hogs"
The slogan sounded by the Geor-
gia state department of agriculture
has been taken up by the newspapers
throughout the state, and is receiving
the Endorsement nd practical support
of business men merchants, bankers,
farmers organizations and many 9TH
er influential agencies.
Hog raising in Georgia has made
more progress in the last ten years
than perhaps any other single indus
try, and yet even now it is. just be-
ginning The prairie lands of south
Georgia, with their houndless sweet
potatoes. peanuts, alfalfa and other
feedstuffs, make grazing ground for
hogs that cannot be surpassed any
where in the country, and the state
can always an abundant supply of
corn to give them a final finishing
course to harden the flesh.
The more pork we eat the more
beef we release to feed the armies
in France, and the farmers cannot
raise a mover supply.

SUNDAY Is ACCUSED
OF CAMOUFLACING
BY DIR. r. E. CONNER

''When Billy raps on the floor of
his platform, and dares The devil to
come up, that is if | may use mod
ern slang, Camouflage, | sometimes
wish that some of you men would ar
range for one of your number to dress
in red tights, with horns and prong
ed tail and pop up through a trap
door, just to see what Mr.. Sunday
would do"-Dr r. E. Conner. fs
While Billy Sunday was preaching
to a large gathering Sunday morn
ing at the Tabernacle, in another sec
ton of the city, the Unitarian church
on Wes1 Peachtree, the evangelist
was being taken to task for alleg-
ed short comings
DR.. Ralph E. Confer was the speak

that Billy was guilty of "camouflage ,

ration, of bigotry, narowress, and pet
ty policy.
DR.. Conner was preaching on the
e,uihiEct: FIs Billy Sunday Himself
Wholly Saved"," and his conclusion
was that while the evangelist was say
ed from a physical standpoint, that
was not wholly saved on The ques-
ticn of honesty.
After stating that Billy Sunday did
not hesitate to accuse the unitarions
of many failings and lack Of true
Christianity, he did not feel there
would be any criticism made Of any
statements he might make in defense
Ct his faith and in criticism of the
Sunday methods, DR.. Conner drew
careful outline of the principle tenets
Of the unitarian faith.
He pointed out how the unitarians
believed in the unity OF Christian
Brotherhood and stated that bigotry
and Observation-Disclosures were two of the
greatest evils the word has known
do not challenge Mr. Sundays sin
cerity, he said, but some OF the great
est crimes in the history of the world
have been brought al about lqlttar through
