A little rain and sunshine and
a few old cans or barrels can
cause enough mosquitoes to destroy
the good effects of a ten
days revival.
The Department of Agriculture
has issued an egg-candling
chart which is intended to show
the difference in fresh eggs and
stale ones. Now, we need a law
to compel the use of the thing.

Since the State Democratic
convention met in Columbia in
May and adopted the new primary
rules requiring a new enrollment
of the voters of the
state, the newspapers have been
untiring in their efforts to get
the people to enroll. Rarely
have we seen a paper published
in the state that did not contain
a notice to the voters that enrollment
was necessary this year.
The subject has been discussed
on the s/reet, at the cross roads
store, in the home and at every
place where the people gather.
If an}' man has failed to put his
name on the club roll, he can't
lay the blame on somebody else.
If lie.has been too indifferent to
enroll, he would have been in
all probability too indifferent to
vote in the primary. The vote
*u.. A . --- -
in me ivugusi primary will be
several thousand less than two
years ago, not because anybody
has been disfranchised but because
repeaters and dead men
will not vote.
^
Candidates for the legislature
will be pressed for expression as
to their stand in the senatorial
pie will demand that the candidates
sav whether they are for
Blease or not. There is no good
reason for this. The candidates
should have reasons for asking
for the votes of the people, and
if a man can give no excuse
other than that he is for or
against LJlease, he has no claims
on the votes of the people and
should he defeated. They should
tell where thev stand on the important
issues demanding legislature
in South Carolina, and let
the people know what to expect
of them. If a man favors compulsory
education and intends to
vote for it, if elected, he should
tell the people, and on the other
hand, it he is opposed to it, he
should say so. A candidate
should not tell who he is so
much as what he will do.
Let the candidates tell what
they favor, if anything, and
what thev nnnrkco

Austria and Servia Will Fight.
London, July 26.?Today's do- '
velopments appear to furnish
new proof *hnt Austria is determined
to make war on Servia. i
The possibilities of a general 1
European war seem greater than 1
ever have confronted the pre- 1
sent generation.
The Servian reply to the A us- \
tro-Hungarian ultimatum was <
an acceptance of almost all the
imperious demands, except that J
Austrian officials shall partici- j
pate in the investigation and fix \
the responsibility for the anti- (
Austrian propaganda. Sorvio <v
proposed an apcnl to the Powers 1
at The 11 ague for the settlement *
of that feature.
Notwithstanding this humiliating
surrender, which was more
than Europe expected of the
proud little Nation, the Austrian R
Government today gave the Ser- \
vian Minister his passports, v>
which may be construed as a h
virtual declaration of war. n

Who Is
W. F. Stevenson
For what does he stand notor
iously? vhirst, for economy. D<
you know 'that congress in thi
last two years has spent $35~,000
()()().(X) on creeks and rivers an<
harbors? This has not helpei
the people of the Fifth Distric
one penny. South Carolina'
share of that money according
to population would be $18,000
000.0<>. If they had put that 01
our post roads instead of it
creeks and harbors and river
every man in South Carolim
would have a good road at hand
During that term our whol<
Stale envern merit tiac rnst r?n1i
$20,000,000.00. We would hav<
about two and a half times a
much for our roads as it takes t<
run the whole State government
a :d i .stead of its being used !<
benefit our roads it has beei
dumped into creeks and river:
and harbors, and almost none o
it has been seen in South Caro
lina. They have just passed i
bill through the house carryinj
$80,000,000.00 and the senate wil
add to it. Stevenson says, cu
down "that steal," as Ben Till
man calls it and build roads t<
the farmers' doors.
What does ^tlic farmer sa:
about this? Give Stevenson i
chance, and he will do his besl
not only to "put the Fifth distric
on the map," but to put th<
farmers of the fifth district 01
the map also.

Last Sunday we had the annu
al report of the Sunday schoo
which showed that we had ai
average attendance of 100 ant
total expenditures^^77 -29. W<
'' ?i c?cij- ineili
ber help to make the report bet
ter for the next year than it ha:
ever been before.
The Mission study class is go
ing and doing good as it goes
Information is one of our great
1 i -i *
vsi ncuus una mis is among one
of the best ways to get the information
and get it first hand.
Not long since we were talk
ing to a good christian and in
the conversation our friend
spoke of Bro. A as being the
kind of christian he liked. "Thai
is, he puts his religion ahead ol
everything else, while others aie
prettv fair christians when it is
convenient and does not interfere
with their plans in any way."
Tliis set us thinking and we
have readied the conclusion
that it is one of our troubles
in church today, that too many
fail to put Christ first. Jesus said
"Seek ye first the kingdom of
God, and His righteousness; and
all these things shall be added
unto you." Matt. 6: 33; To the
saved man this means putting
Christ first in everything. Or
putting things in their spiritual
order, first things first and second
things have their place.
Giving Christ the preeminence
in all things.
We are glad to have an opportunity
of being with the good
people of Thompson Creek in
meeting this week. It is a real
pleasure to he with Bro. Purvis
iind his people. We would ask
in interest in your prayers that
the meeting may be a great sue
:ess for our Lord.
