MEXICAN QUAIL IN
TERRELL COUNTY
BIRDS RECEIVED FROM STATE
GAME COMMISSIONER FOR
PROPAGATION HERE.

Recently it was announced that the
state game commissioner, Hon. ]. F.
Rhodes, had made arrangements to
obtain considerable number of Mex
lean quail which he would distribute
in Georgia for propagation purposes,
those receiving the birds to pay the
cost of bringing them from Mexico,
Friday Mr.. f. l. Rainey received
by express a half dozen of the Mex
lean birds. and it is hoped this specie
of quail will soon become plentiful
in Terrell county. Mr.. Rainey put the
birds received by him in charge of
Mr.. Charles S. Lee, of Doverel, who
released them on one of his farms in
a locality suited to raising quail, and
he will look after them the best he
can with a view to largely increasing
the number by another season.
The Mexican birds, which are
known as the blue quail, are about the
size Of our American quail and are
the color OF doves and have a top
knot on the head. Any one seeing
strange looking birds of this descriP
ton are requested not to shoot or
modest them in any way.
The birds are the first of their kind
ever seen here, and attracted much at
tention on their arrival at Dawson.l

A Campaign for Law
Enforcement Is Waged
Every Home and Place Of Business Is
Requested to Put Star in Window.

Believing that law enforcement is
the urge OF the hour, the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union OF Geor-
Ola has taken very definite steps to
arrest thought in this matter as the
highest patriotic duty. In December it
was suggested that the new year be
celebrated by asking that every home
and place of business put star in the
window as a reminder to work for law
enforcement.
This campaign has already begun in
Dawson, the different streets being
canvassed by members from the local
union. A white star on a field OF blue
forms the attractive poster, which ev-
cry one will be asked to display. There
is a cry from all over the state, by
those who think deeply, for better law
enforcement. Not obedience to the
prohibition law alone but all laws.
During the war every patriot s
window b1ossomed with service cards
indicating that members Of the house
hold had contributed to the Red Cross,
purchased liberty bonds or in other
ways given of their bit to aid their
country. Today we are marshaling our
forces for another battle, the last in
our age-long, holy war against the
liquor traffic. Why not service star
in every window of every home that
will join in a campaign for law OBJ
servance?"
The fight is a big one, but the mem
bers of the w. c. T. y. believe that
success is as sure as the promises OF
God

.OVERCROWD|NG
| IN HOSPITALS S OF
STATE MENACE

Overcrowding of public institu-
tions for the insane is a serious
menace to their cure. according
to DR.. l.. r. Griffith OF the Oregon
state hospital, who spoke before
the Rotary club this noon at its
luncheon in the Marion hotel.
ITO carry on the work OF cur
ing the insane properly, there is
a great need for larger institu-
tions," said DR.. Griffith. when
patients are coming in at the
rate of rs per month the staff OF
the institution is put at its wits
end to provide room, and some
times patients are discharged be-
fore they are cured"
Abuse OF insane patients in
public institutions has been re-
duced to a minimum, though not
entirely eliminated, DR.. Griffith
said. This is due to the inability
to secure the right kind OF help
at the small rate OF wages. When
case of actual abuse can be
proven, however, the employe is
discharged.
Cure of the insane has advanc-
ed remarkably within the last few
years. he said, with the provision
for dental work on all newly ar
rived patients, and the building OF
psychopathis hospital where
they are received and made TO
feel that every effort will be made
to analyse their cases and to ef-
feet cure.
Criticism Of insane hospitals,
stated the doctor, comes largely
from those who have not a full
understanding of the methods
used, and from friends OF inmates
who feel that they are shirking
their duty in allowing the state
to take care OF them.
Home treatment OF the many
cases which have come under HIS
observation have rarely proved
successful, he said.
