Build more houses and see how

The circus is coming. Don't try to

The mountaineers predict eight

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

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

one time in the paper?then look
