It * is unthinkable that the feet of Christ i- should have carried him in the wayeven of questionable things.” t With telling effect Rev. Lane frequently exclaimed, “which way are „ your feet carrying you?” The cloSest attention of the fine audience was held by the evangelist as he, in ~ a dramatic manner, portrayed feet, beautiful and otherwise. In the style of the salesman. Rev. , Lane is presenting the old gospel truths. Rev.

Daily Democrat) —Renewed efforts by drys in the coming session of congress to make the Volstead act! apply to home brew were foreseen here today as a result of the Soper opinion in the trial of Congressman Hill that it did not so apply.Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Anti-Saloon league, in a statement, said the Soper opinion was “clearly right” and that It might I be necessary “to cork up the law a - bit.” I Wets, on the other hand, were jubilant. They were of the opinion any attempt (o make the one-half of one' per cent definition of intoxicating a'coholic content aply to cider and , fruit juices manufactured in the home or on the farm would alienate u large portion of the rural support , which hud always been strongly dry.| .

Assistant Attorney Gen eral Frierson, four years ago. wrote an opinion that home brew was exj empted from the alcoholic content . definition of the Volstead act. He said home brew manufacturers could ! only be prosecuted by proving their ! brews were “intoxicating in fact.” However, the prohobition unit, under the direction of Roy A. Haynes has refused to accept this view of the department of justice and as a result there has been'much confusion in | l prohibition enforcement circles over home brew prosecutions. | The Hill case will certainly he ap-| pealed to (lie supreme court for a final decision as authoritative interpretation of the law, it was felt here. o “Undo Billy” Decides To See The Big City Atlanta, Ga„ Nov. 2. —“Uncle Billy" barber from >down Paulding county way, was in town today for his first street car ride and to “get in on anything doing in the city.” “Uncle Billy,” who will be 100 years old next March 8, is fixing to “stay
