 The men or the women working in a Piggly Wiggly store have jobs to do and these are the jobs:
 To keep the store clean and sani- tary; to keep the display cases and ice box and fruit stand filled with fresh, wholesome and standard merchandise so that it is ever ready for each house. wife, her husband or her child to irl- spect and select according to each in- dividua1S notion.
 Another job of those working in a Pigg1y Wiggly store is to answer cour- teously and fully every question of a customer, but never to argue with a customer or endeavor to persuade or recommend any article as superior to another, or even suggest to a customer that they should make purchase or even ask them why they didn't.
 Another, and the last job of those working in a Pigg1y Wiggly store, is for the checker or cashier to tabulate on an adding machine the prices of the articles selected by the customer. It is then that the customer pays for the articles that she or he has selected with their own hands, and according to what they themselves preferred to se- lect.
 Remember, if you go to a Pigg1y Wiggly store and don't see anything you want it is perfectly all right for you to pass by the checking desk with out paying anything. Nobody will look at you suspiciously because you didn't buy. Pigg1y Wigg1y is not afraid of you. So whether you want to buy or not, just remember that Piggly Wiggly store is your store and that you can go there yourself as many times as you like just to look and not buy if you don't want to buy.
 You can take your friends with you your children, too. We want the lit tie folks to learn that Piggly Wiggly store was made for them the same, as for their mother or their daddy.
 A Piggly Wiggly store is every body's store. Itis store for the poor, for the rich, for those who are neither poor nor rich. It is store for those who know all about books and for those who trust to their faith in others.
 Only one price in Piggly Wigg1y store for those who have nickels and for those who have thousands. 1n11Tl.Ik A..

making statements which several wit nesses testified he had made regarding the selective draft act and the war.
 JUDGE GRUBB'S CHARGE
 In his charge to the jury, Judge w. l. Grubb stated that the point to deter mine was whether the defendant had willfully or inadvertently refused to reg ister and that whether or not these statements had been made by him did did not enter the case other than throw ing light on his motives for failing to register.
 The case was opened by Ralph Quinn, assistant district attorney, and J. Reese Murray, special agent of the department of justice, was the first witness called to the stand.
 The defendant when placed on the stand testified that he was born III Chattanooga but had made Birmingham his home for the past 15 years, and for the past IA years he had been employed at Roberts & Son, having worked up to manager of the stationery department from delivery boy. He said he re- ceived the appointment to serve as reg istrar at West End on June 5, and he thought he did not have to register as he was serving the government on that day and he did not see any or the other registrars registering.
 CHUMLEY'S STATEMENT
 According to Chumley, he was first notified that he had not registered on October s, when one of the secret serv- ice men came to Roberts X Son and told him he would have to go to the office of Murray & Hanna, special agents of the department of justice, in a day or two and see about the matter. Chumley said he then accompanied the officer to see Mir Murray, who told him he could take up the matter with Washington and see what could be done about it, as there was a general impression that the men serving as registrars were not required to register. MT. Murray told me to come back and I did so, several times, and he suggested I made an affidavit giving my reason for not registering, and I did so' said Chumley.
 'On October P went to see MT. Mur- ray again and he told me to go and reg ister, and he telephoned E. A. Pepper man, secretary of the local board, that was coming. I was called for military service and examined presenting my claim for exemption on the dependence of my wife and child I filled out my auestionnanre on December 12 Judge B. M.
