the very erroneous impression OF
many nationals that our liberty is a
license, instead of guaranteed free

Certain functions and RESPONSE

The problem of concurrent juris-

indeed the whole realm of concerns

upon the national authority the
Federal government will, not only
under this administration but under
whatever others may come in the
future, assume and discharge the
full obligation.
"The national government has
been uniformly considerate of the
sensibilities of the states about
their rights and authorities. But
when a state deliberately refuses to
exercise the powers which the CON
stitution expressly confers on it, it
obviously commits Itself to a policy
of multiplying state authority, the
end of which we are reluctant to
conjecture.
whatever satisfaction there may
be in indulgence, whatever objec-
ticn there is to the so-called in
vasion of personal liberty, neither
counts when the supremacy of law
and the stability of our institutions
are MANAGED. With all good in
tention> the majority sentiment of
the United States has sought by law
to remove strong drink as a curse
upon the American citizen, but ours

THE SHANTY, THE
ALLEY, AND RABBIT
TOBACCO DAYS.

Boys don't seem to be building
shanties as much as they used to-.
And they're missing a lot, for the
boyhod shanty looms as one Of the
most delightful spots in the memory
of the man whose hair is white or
beginning to turn gray above the
ears.
The old-time shanty back yon-
der was our first big expression Of
the creative instinct. It taught US
to build with our hands. It neces-
STATED teamwork that instilIed into
US sense of business organization.
The community spirit was developed
during the erection Of the shanty
and its management after compile
ton.
The shanty was an expression Of
certain period of American life
1t dated from pioneer days when
lads built small huts out of poles,
in imitation of their fathers log
cabins.
Lumber is to scarce and expen-
sive now An outlay Of at least
$50 would be necessary to put up
a shanty as respectable piece of
work.
The decided changes that are tax
ing place in our civilization are
most strikingly illustrated in the
changed pastime of youth. The
shanty is not the only institution
that is passing. That charming
boyhood highway, the alley is pass
ing gradually, a victim Of conges-
ton and high real estate values.
And the alley, where it still sur
wives in the modern city, usually
IS only CHASTITY ghost of the old
time alleys overgrown with weeds,
canyoned by highboard fences and
Uttered with old iron and bones for
the junkman.
The movie serial has taken the
place of Nick Carter, and machine
made cigarets have displaced grape
vine, rabbit tobacco and cornsilk.

An accidental marriage came
near happening Sunday afternoon
in this city. 1t was all started for
fun, but when the parson told them
he would marry them and get the
license next day, it broke up the
fun
Perhaps you haven't heard it,
but it's so. The boy weighed
eleven pounds, and its father, Mr..
John T. Argo says that it is the
finest boy in Georgia.
Mr.. Marshall Martin, of Fort
Valley, arrived in the city yester-
day. He will remain during the
cotton season.
The many admirers of Miss Chole
Bel White will hear with much
