Andrew P. Rives writes from Cuthbert Ga arguing rail workers promoted temperance after long careers in railroads and in merchandise sales. He cites Prohibition era texts, religion, and personal anecdotes about Coca Cola and caffeine to claim moderation, law, and prayer as paths to temperance. He recalls district conference debates on temperance, praises four decades of Bible study, and urges family prayer and restraint. The letter defends temperance through personal history and religious framing.
Ivan Allen and Carol Woolford head a Georgia tourism push moving in May to Spring and Harris streets.

The bureau marks its 20th anniversary since its 1918 founding under Fred Houser.
