The mountaineers predict eight snows this winter, which reminds us, have you laid in your winter supply of wood and coal? We would be glad to have weekly letters from every school in Lancaster county. What bright girls and hoys will volunteer to write them? "Had any chestnuts yet?" inquires The Greenville Piedmont. Yes, plenty of them. We read and sometimes reprint the jokes we see in the daily papers. Those who advocate the light breakfast plan and who Indulge in hard, dry cereals at the morning meal will doubtless hail the pop-corn prepartion with delight.

( The State has discovered that there are "some fine fences in South Carolina now with candidates on them, too." The fence seems to be a favorite perch for some South Carolina politicians who had better come down on one side or the other if they ever expect to got anywhere. The Augusta Chronicle repeats an old saying to this effect: "Print pretty things fifty times about a man and you hear nothing. Cross him one time in the paper?then look L L. out." But isn't this the way of the world? We swallow all the pleasant T things, taking them as our due, with- wor out even an acknowledment, but our buil sensitive natures combat every crit- spol icism, however just. pap< and Congressman J.
