Ill making up the "forms" for the last Issue of The Chronicle, a paragraph about Jerrj Moore, the champlcn corn raiser, crept Iiko an article headed, "What llecomoK of Old Shoes." This was one of the ridiculous errors which falls to the lot occasionally of every make up man. We hasten to say th?ft Jerry Is not an "old shoe" by any means, but on the contrary Is a fine farmer boy who has brought fame to himself and to his atato by his Improved methods of farm ing. South Carolina is proud of him. There Is a minister who appreci ates the editor. At a recent edi torial convention he offered the fol lowing toast: "To save an editor from starvation, tako his paper and pay for It promptly. To save him bankruptcy, advertise in his paper liberally. To save him from de spair, send him every item of news of which you can get hold. To save .him from profanity, write your cor respondence plainly on one side of the sheet and send it in as soon as possible. To save him from mis takes, bury him. Dead people are the only ones that never make mis takes. Three Incenses Yesterday. Three marriage licenses were is sued from the Probate office yester day.
