MINORS BARRED FROM
POOL HALLS BY COUNCIL

1t is unlawful today for minor
to enter a pool hall in Americus-u
less he has the written consent of
parent or guardian. An ordinance
making it an offense was passed by
the city council last night without a
dissenting vote, after it had been
drawn and presented by City Attor-
ney Lane upon instructions received
by him at the previous meeting.
The ordinance was drawn as the
result of numerous complaints of par
ents to city officials that they could
not keep their sons out of the pool
halls, much as they desired to do so.
The state law, it was decided, was
inadequate, as it made it unlawful for
a pool hall proprietor to permit a
monor to play pool, but did not pro-
hibit the minor from freuenting the
places. The city act was recon-
mended by local pool hall men, who
expressed desire to cooperate with
public sentiment.

when the union BARRIERS in Atlanta
announced that the minimum price
of a shave would be twenty cents and
hair cut forty cents. There were
various other raises of singes, mas

cussion there would have been no
war.
And little farther down in the
report:
"The president said he wanted to
forget and wanted the people to
forget that they were republicans
or democrats.
"'I am an Aemrican," he de-
clared, and a champion of the
rights which America believes in
"At this the crowd cheered and
there was another outburst of
cheering when he declared he had
not the 81 ghtest doubt what the
verdict of the people would be-"
1t was much the same at Column
bus, o., the presidents first stop,
although the street car strike there
apparently kept many people from
greeting him. However, his re-
ception was spontaneous and hear
ty, and the president afterward ex-
pressed himself to the accompany
ing correspondents as highly
pleased.
President Wilson has way of
talking to the hearts of the peo-
pie. He talks in terms that they
can understand. And he has a
way of making them believe in him.
We may look for this trip to be
great Wilsonian triumph, and to
see the foes of the treaty utterly
routed before he reaches Washing
ton again.
Why? Because President Will
son is right; the peace treaty rep
resents, as near as was humanity
possible the ideals of the human
race. The mothers and the faith
ers, the sweethearts and wives Of
the men of this country want no
more war, and they know--or will
know when the president has in
formed them Of the treaty details
that it is the only device which
offers even the hope of ending war.
The president does not claim
that it will make war impossible.
In his Indianapolis speech, he said
that no one believed the League
of Nations would make war impos-
sible, but that he expected il to
make war violently improbable"
The economic and arbitration
sections of the covenant, he ar
serted, would keep war on the out
skirts" and make it only "last
resort"
Calling on opponents of the Lea
que of Nations to present a "bet-
ter program for peace" he declar-
ed it is a case of put up or shut
up"
The Prohibition party, which has
been holding a convention in Chi
cago to decide whether it would
shuttle off it's mortal coil, it hav-
ing served its purpose and it's day,
has decided to continue the party
organization indefinitely. The ma
jority held that the adoption Of ma
tional prohibition had not ended
the party's mission.
A few months ago J. Ogden Ar
mour, the head of the great pack
ing firm, was out with a statement
that prices would remain high in
definitely. Now he has changed his
tune. "The crest IN the high cost
Of living has been reached, prices
have already started downward and
VIII continue. The drop later will
be considerable" said Mr.. Armour.
Not only all the products of the
packers fall, but all other food
stuffs will decline in price. Condi-
tions point to considerable drop
later on"

flames P. Goodrich, republican
governor of Indiana, in brief adj
dress welcoming the president, said
everyone wanted better under
standing among the nations, but
that every true American citizen
also favored a strong nationalism.
He pleaded for all parties to lay
aside partisanship in deciding the
issues of the peace treaty.
"When the governor mentioned
that the meeting was to hear the
president, the crowd cheered for
several minutes and the governor
could only stop them by presenting
Mr.. Wilson.
at was ten minutes before the
crowd was quieted and the pres
ident proceeded. He traced the
incidents from which the great war
started, saying the significant cir
cumstance was that Austria and
Germany did not dare discuss the
demands made on Serbia. 1t gen
orally was admitted abroad, he as
serted, that if there had been dis
cussion there would have been no
war.
