LEGATION of Verses Regarding
Christmas Mailing
Mail Early and Often

Mail Early and OFTEN
The Christmastide is drawing near.
When parcel post looms high,
Clerks and postmen plead with you;
Mail early" is their cry.
Of course you want your friends to get
Their gifts by Christmas day,
And Uncle Sam will back you up
II you will mail them right away.
But if you keep on waiting
Until the last few days,
Therell be congestion in the mails,
And terrible delays.
Just think how disappointed
The kiddies all will be,
II your presents came too late
To hang on the Christmas tree.
Your gifts need not be opened
If posters you will use.
Don't open until Christmas"
is a seal that you should choose
I wonder if you realize
The hardships OF the clerks.
If you negle to mail this week,
And thus your duty shirk.
And picture the poor postmen
Laden down with shoulders lame;
For although It's merry Christmas"
They must all work just the same.
So remember, friends. mail early,
If you'd spread the Christmas cheer,
Mail early and mail often
And delays you need not fear.

WARRANT REQUIRED
 ID SEARCH GARAGE
Unlawful Search Cannot Be Justified By What Is Found,
 Judge Rules
By Associated Press

Cincinnati, February 11.-The entry without permission, express or implied into private garage without warrant prohibition agents of the United States is unlawful under decision handed down in the United States district court here today by Judge John w. Peck. The opinion was rendered on applica tion of Harry Slusser of Cincinnati for the return of an automobile which was seized by police and federal prohibition agents several weeks ago when they visited his home and garage and found 2SS quarts of liquor.
 As a result of the raid, two automo- piles and the whisky was confiscated and Slusser and others arrested on charges of having had possession of liquor and with having transported liquor illegally.
 The right of the people to be se- cure in their houses against unreason- able searches and seizures is not limited to dwelling houses, but extends to garages, warehouses, shops, stores. offices, and even a safety deposit vault,' Judge Peck said.
 An unlawful search cannot be tusti- fled by what is found.
 "The discretion of an officer, how ever good and well mentioned is not a substitute in law for a search war rant issued by a proper magistrate
 In passing upon Slusser's application for the return of the aNtomobile Judge Peck held that the search and seizure was unwarranted and without authority of law.

BOTH AMENDMENTS
 APPARENTLY LOST.
 IN TUESDAY VOTE
Twenty-Five Counties Show No. l Defeated By Bare Mar gin, While No. 2 Voted
 Down Three to One

Reports from 25 counties in the state last night indicate that Amendment No.s provid- ing the issuance and sale of $5,- 000,000 of the proposed $25,- 000,000 good roads bonds be sold at rate not to exceed 6 per cent, has lost by a narrow margin. The same counties conclusively show that Amend ment No. 2, requiring addition al qualifications for registra- tion and voting has lost by about a three to one majority.
 The 25 counties reporting give the bond amendment l5.s26, while 16,151 is the total against 1t, indicating its de- feat by 125 votes on the incomplete re- turns. The suffrage amendment re- ceived total of 13.ss4. while 1S,72s votes were cast against it. The ma jority against is 1859.
 JEFFERSON'S VOTE
 Jefferson county piled up an enor- nous total against both proposed amendments. The bond amendment was defeated by total of 566 and the suffrage mendment by the surprising total of 5.626 votes. The count was: No. 1, for, 3,7ss; against, 4,299 No. ?, for, 1,208; against, 6,S34.
 Both amendments carried in Mobile county by substantial majorites and in Montgomery county by large ma jorities, In the latter county there were but 194 votes cast against amend ment No. ?, while 1,Q72 voted for it. The road amendment did not fare so successfully, in that 3s9 were cast against 1t. while 937 voted for it. Etowah county boiled a heavy vote and gave the. suffrage amendment a large majority
 In every county less than half the voting strength, and in many less than one-third of the voters, participated in the election. General apathy rains and the recent decision of the supreme court are the assigned causes for the low totals.
