full name and address that we might
keep in touch with every ex-service
man from time to time as we may
have our meetings or as some matters
of interest to them might present
themselves, occasioning our desire to
reach them promptly. If every white
eX-soldier in the county will respond
promptly upon receipt of this mes
sage this will enable us to get fairly
accurate list of the white ex-service
men in Terrell county.
Through the columns of The News
we hope to reach many whom we
might otherwise unintentionally over
look. If there be any citizens OF our
county who know of white ex-service
men in this county whose names we
should have and who might not re-
spond to our request we would also
thank them most heartily for their
cooperation in the matter of securing
for us the names and addresses Of the
parties we desire to reach.
An effort will be made to keep
closer in touch with the ex-service
men of the county this year and if
there are any ex-service men moving
into the county or away we would
like to have their change of address.
1t is a great task, but one that faces
us and we will endeavor to use our
best efforts in keeping a better record
ofSour ex-soldier men, compiling new
lists from time to time as we see fit.
Every ex-service man in the county
is urged to forward his full name and
present address to one of the follow
ing officers of the Davis-Daniel Post

~. s. IS MORE LAW>RIDDEN
THAN RUSSIA UNDER CARS

A. O'Gorman. Judges of the United
States circuit court of appeals were
among the guests.
Overburdened With Laws.
Mr.. Beveridge asserted that the
United States was overburdened by
federal state and local legislation. Ad-
ministration Of the laws, he said, has
become "peremptory, insolent and au-
tocratic," until officials have become
vexatious tyrants and citizens have
become cringing subjects.
The nation and every state are
well-nigh smothered with multitudes
OF laws said the speaker. No human
being knows even how many statutes
are hidden within the forbidden COW
ers of the thousands of volumes that
contain the acts OF congress and the
legislatures. No human being knows
even the number of city ordinances,
much less the purport of them.
The country would be better of
lii, for every new law passed, an old
law were repealed We complain OF
I1awlessness, but is not excess legisla-
ton a basic cause OF lawlessness? How
can anybody obey every law when no
body knows or can know how many
laws there are or what they command
or forbid?
1T has come to pass that the mass
OF American legislation is restrictive
We boast that ours is the land OF lib
erty yet the American people are, by
law, forbidden to do more things and,
by law, ordered to do more things
than was the case in Russia under the
car or Turkey under the sultan"
Not only the number of laws and
the whimsical and arbitrary enforce
mcnt OF them" but also the nature OF
many of them is in defiance of human
nature and the spirit OF free institu-
tons, said Mr.. Beverage.
Can't Change Human Nature. :.
Some of the ten commandments
have been put on our statute books,
as they should be-" he continued. But
others cannot be legislated or enforc-
ed by any device OF human govern
ment You cannot force children to
reverence parents; you cannot prevent
coveteousness or create altrustic love.
The sermon on the mount is the
final word in normal duty and noble
living, yet there is not line OF it that
can be put into human law with a
policeman behind it. But the preach
er, if he is on the job, can put into
the souls of men that which legisla-
tors cannot The church cannot abb
dictate its mission and assume the task
Of the state without running both"
The speaker suggested that I'VE get
rid OF this abnormal state OF mind;
overthrow the idolatry of legislation;
recover from the debauch in which we
have been reveling." And the penalty
for not taking the remedy would be
1--WE, the people, strangled by auto
cratic regulations, surrendering our
liberties and making ourselves the
slaves, rather than the masters"

Senator Beveridge in Speech.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Americans

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS.

The past week was one eventtul III
many respects at the Dawson high
school. At chapel exercises Monday
a. short but very interesting program
was rendered in commemoration OF
Robert z. Lee The program began
with the reading OF an essay on Lee,
by Garden Bell, whose paper was adj
Judged to be the best in the senior
class. Following this were several
readings on the qualities and deeds OF
Lee. Rev. E. NJ. OVERLY gave a short
talk on the southern leader, stressing
the outstanding characteristics and
deeds of the man i'll all walks OF lite.
To have been present at this pro-
gram would have dispelled any doubt
in ones mind as to the greatness and
superiority of this southerner.
Applicants have been found for ev-
ery division of the district meet, and
judging from their eager efforts 1t
would appear that wonderful show
ing will be made by the local school
Athletes Encouraged.
AS all vaccinations have practically
healed the athletic standing will prob
ably be made little higher. In chapel
Wednesday morning Coach Morgan, IN
few words, told how the financial
standing OF the association had been
bettered considerably, how apprec1a-
tive the members of the association
were for the support they received
from the Dawson public at the last
game, and how earnestly they desire
the continued support throughout the
remainder of the season.
With the school spirit that was
manifested at the Dawson-Albany
game the ability and stamina OF the
players would be increased a hundred
per cent at the remaining games.
Lack of judgment in using money
causes more trouble than lack OF
money!
