MAKER Of H0OCH
HAS TOUGH TIME
IS GRADY RECORD
22 Moonshine stills Captured by
Officers In County During
Year; sankey Hopes to
Drive 'Em Out

Whiskey distillers in Grady county
have travelled a rough, rocky road
during the past two years, according
to records in the sheriff's office
which show that 22 stills have been
captured in the county since the
early part of 1919.
A greater part of these whiskey
factories have been captured during
the past IL months which have been
rather busy ones for Sheriff Matt
Sankey and his staff Of deputies
Three stills were captured last week
and the alleged operators are now
under bond for appearance in fed
eral court to answer to the charge
Three liquor-making machines were
found during the last week In
March. Federal enforcement officers
have worked with the county Off
GERS in many Of the raids.
Few men who have been found
operating distills have escaped pun
lshment, large majority having
been convicted. Many other convic
tions are expected, the sheriff said
adding that he had clues which pro
badly will lead to the capture o
other stills and arrest Of the opera
tors. To stop the manufacture o
corn whiskey in Grady county, is thu
hope of Sheriff Sankey.
The largest still found in th'
county during the past two years
according to Sheriff Sankey, had ;
capacity Of 200-gallons of mash
The smallest had capacity Of onl.
one gallon, being about as large a
a large sized coffee pot. Men al
legged to have operated the large on
are now under bond in federal court
while the operators Of the small on
were convicted and served shor
term in the federal penitentiary.

Announcement Of what subjects
may be acted upon by the legislature
will be made by Governor Robertson
in message 1T the opening of the
session, 1t is expected The governor
did not say whn' matters he expect
ed to submit.
In addition to the appropriations
for state departments and institu'
tions, appropriations to pay Of defl-
cheney certificates and outstanding
claims against the state and provis-
ion for aid to needy, disabled sol
diers, all bills which were awaiting
final disposition at the time the
regular session ended, probably will
be considered again at the special
session, 1t was predicted.
About 100 bills which had been
passed by both branches Of the leg
islature when the end came on April
2 failed of enactment because OF the
lack Of time to send them formally
to the governor. The goveronr may
direct that they be re-lntroduced, 1t
is expected.
Short and intensive will be the
special session, according to the
larger number Of predictions Thurs
day. Two weeks will be necessary
as a minimum to transact necessary
appropriation business, provided
that there are Lo prolonged disagree
ments between senate and house as
to the amounts Of appropriations.
How much longer the session will
continue depends upon what matters
are submitted by the governor and
the attitude Of members toward
them. The governor himself wants
the session to be as short as possi-
BILE, it is believed.

What we call slang is usually
nothing more than the efforts Of the
uneducated. or those who are rapid IN
their speech, to get their tongues
around the longer and proper names
for the objects to which they arc re-

originates in the lower orders OF SOC
iety, though a number of terms which
wcrc originally colloauialisms have
been adopted into the best usage and
arc now used by writer's and speakers
Of distinction. Among these might he
mentioned "pluck' (Which was butch
crs' slang for ths heart of an OK,

expert collector of debts), fan"
(short for "Tantastic"), and the like.
The reference to London policemen

in another source. This is an alb
