England claims to have a

That man Bonsai who builds
railroads would confer a favor

he would build that line from

who has been ruined bv slron g

in the September election.
All who can find such a person
should vote down the poison
which wrecks homes and scatters
woe and misery broadcast
- throughout the land. It wrecks
men's bodies and damns men's
souls. It is the devil's strong
arm.
Which way will you vote?

Three years ago Pageland had
a ball team that beat nearly every
team in this section. This
year we have a team that has
been beaten by every team with
y which they have crossed bats.
The last game lost was to Wingate
last Friday, the score standing
4 to 3. bix games have
been played, and nearly every
one was lost by iust a score or
two. Luck seems to be against
the boys. The second nine beat
Red Rose Friday afternooa by 2
scores. This was the only
match played on the local diamond
this season. This must be
the reason we loose. A dog
barks louder in his own yard
than elsewhere.

T. B. Laney, one of Monroe's
policemen, is about to learn that
he is a poet. He has written
several poems recently that
would do credit to one with a
reputation for producing the
rhymed stuff. He is not very
well educated, they tell us,4 and
he writes by a kind of inspiration

The fighting goes on, and the
prospect of peace is no nearer.
America still protests against
Germany's submarine policy
which murders women and
children and other noncombitants,
and Germany thinks we
are leaning toward the Allies
and away from her. Germany
fails to understand our position
and we fail to understhand hers.
There is still hope that conflict
between the two conntries may
be avoided.

Monroe Officers Capture Liquor
Pot
Monroe Journal
Sheriff Jule Griffith, Constable
W. L. Earnhart and Mr. Wriston
Shepherd captured a still early
last night in the extreme north
eastern part of the county in
New Salem township. When
found the still was warm, and
other evidences tended to show
that it had been in operaiton
during the day. No arrests were
made, as it is possible that the
moonshiners may have been
warned, or having done a days
work, quit for the night. The
still was brought to town and is
now sitting out on the court
house square. It holds about 75
or 80 gallons.
Had Not Heard of War.
There's a man in Humboldt
county who did not hear about
the European war until this
summer. To C. E. Gill, a local
real estate man, falls the distinction
of finding this man, who is
Angus Clafson, a homesteader of
South Humboldt county.
On a recent trip into the
mountains Gill encountered
Clafson, who had just come out
of his lonely camp, where he
had received no newspapers for
many months.
Bobby and Elsie were told
that there were \wo apples on
4ne Taore ror them, lieing"
taught to consider each other
first, Bobby said: "Take your
choice, Elsie."
"No," said Elsie, "you take
vour choice."
Each kept insisting that the
other take first choice, but
finally Elsie broke the deadlock
by taking the biggest apple.
Instantly Bobby's eyes flashed
and he exclaimed wrathfulfy:
"Put that back and take your
choice!"

We enjoyed our stay with
Bro. Jones and the good people
of Ridgeland. We are glad the
Lord gave us a splendid meeting.
A partial result was eight
for baptism and some few more
to join at the water. We were
afraid for a long time to go
down in this low region near
the coast but we never felt better
in our lives than during our
stay down there.
Next Sunday we will begin
our meeting at Liberty Hill.
Bro. Jones will assist us in this
meeting. Brethren pray for us
in all these services, not for any
honor that we may receive but
that the name of our Christ may
be honored and glorified.

John F. Wiggins, an industrious
farmer ot this vicinity, last
fall killed a fine porker and tflte
women folks took the head and
cooked it, making it into souse
and livermush. After scraping
and cleaning the jowl, this particular
piece of anatomy was
carefully tucked away on the
kitchen wall to use in case of
mumps. The family escaped this
troublesome experience, however,
and one day last week the
jowl attracted the attention (f
Mr. Wiggins, who took it dov\H
and examined it. He found thr t
an entirely new set of teeth baa
grown out just below the old
ones.?Ex.

Certainly Some Voice.
Here is a little story that was
told by Congressman John Ej
Baker of California, the othe(
nighjt, when the talk topic of tlu
lobby of a hotel took a musica
turn, relates The Philadelphii
Telegraph.
Some time ago the guests at a
reception were discussing Ihu
relative merits of several song^
sters, when one of the partd
turned to a man named Brown]
"Not on your life!" was the
emphatic responsd of Brownj
"I never sang a note that some]
body didn't threaten to send liuj
riot call. You are probably
thinkink of my brother."
"Perhaps I am," was the
thoughtful rejoinder of the other,]
"Has he a heavy bass voice?"
"Yes," smiled Brown; "so
denied heavy that it makes him
bowlegged to carry it." mm
A Card of Appreciation.
We want to take this methoa
of showing out appreciation
and kind feelings toward thosq
neighbors and friends who were
so good and kind to us during
the illness of oiit-jvrf&uiMj
mother. )
We can find no words that
will express our appreciation of
these loving and kind deeds.
And we pray God's richest
blessings may ever dwell witjjj
you, and we ever await y<w
services. Yours in appreciatijK

What an Obliging Dentist.
The patient writhed in the

face crimson, but the rubber
dam in his mouth prevented
speech.
The dentist stepped quickly
into his laboratory and came
back with a placard which he
hung up on the wall high enough
to be seen by the patient in his
semi recumbent position. On
the card were printed in bold
type half a dozen lines of profanity
that fairly sizzled.
"Is that how you feel?" asked
the dentist, sympathetically.
The patient nodded his head
"Well, keep your eye on the
card. I'll soon be through."
