?Weather forecast for South
Carolina: Fair Tuesday and Wednesday.
Write Santa Claus what you want.
Have you bought your Red Cross
Seals?
Let not the town be judged by the
knockers it keeps.
Even business men are not too busy
to seal their letters with the little
lted Cross stamps.
Early Christmas shoppers have
learned that Lancaster merchants can
"deliver the goods."
The Newberry Observer speaks of
pistols, whiskey and "clubs" as a
"trinity of evils," as indeed they are.
That the Waycross (Ga.) candidate
named Beaten was successful in his
race is further proof that there's
nothing in a name.
A school for suffrage workers has i
been opened in Washington. This is i
well for the women who wish to vote I
have much to learn. \
Wo are perfectly willing to swat ,
him in summer time but don't think <
its fair that we have to keep on swat- ,
ting the lly through the winter. (
The Charlotte Chronicle made a
good suggestion when it said, "South j
Carolina ought to organize a society
to prevent the useless election of
members of the penitentiary board." >
<
Advertising lias increased church
attendance in St. Louis, Atlanta and
Baltimore, thus showing the useful- i
ness of newspapers in religious as ,
well as social and business under- ,
takings.
It is our pleasure to boost the town f
of Lancaster and the county of Lan- t
caster and to work for the best in- i
terests of all our people. We have I
always done this and expect to cou- <
tinue at the good work. i
The annual report of the Bible
Society shows that 27 million Bibles <
have been sold during th? past year.
From this it will ho seen that this <
good old hook remains tlie hest of all I
the world's "hest sellers." r

The Columbus (Ga.) Knquirer- n
Sun says that (lovernor Itlease's platform
for United States senator appears
to he denunciation of President 1
Wilson, and asks tlie timely question, v
"Will that win in South Carolina?" 1
S
There is greater demand than ever "
for houses to rent. If property
owners would huild a few good, sub- e
stantial cottages it would bo to their
advantage as well as to that of the (
many newcomers who wish homes (
here.
n
wiiv 111 tii*' public library's most s
faithful workers suggests that an appropriate
present for the library ^
would be a load of wood. We hope
p
some friend will send it early and ()
that It will not be labeled "Not to be
used till Christmas." _
We sometimes hear mlddle.aged r
men speak regretfully of the fart ~
that they were not given an education
in their youth. Hut they should
not forget that in these days of books tl
and other printed matter, they are it
"never too old to learn."
Do your Christmas shopping,
whether early or late, In Lancaster, ni
T
remembering that every dollar spent j(
at home not only helps Its merchants
but increases our population, advances
our educational Interests, and
mnkes It a better town, both from a
business and social standpoint. Help j fc
your town for Its own sake, for yours
and for the sake of the surrounding
