WHAT THE EDITOR SAYS
It is said that charity begins at
home Yes, and it should not
remain at. home
Why cannot a crazy crank who
kills a person and then kills himself
commit suicide first?
Well now if a governor is
shorn of his power to revoke a
parole why should he be allowed
to issue one? Poor rule that
does not work both ways, so it
has been sain.
It is said by astronomers that
thousands of years was consumed
in light traveling from some
of the distant ?tar? tn fhn
Some church members by their
actions seem to think it is necessary
to comsume some thousands
of years in sending the light of
the gospel to heathen lands.'
(
No, no, friend, you are not
??Cees?ariiy better as an outsider
than the church member you say
is a big hypocrite and who is on
the inside. Your position on the
outside is just as evil in God's
sight as is the position of the
~your salvation is concerned.
^When a male or female?note
the construction of the sentence,
with bulging eyes and gaping
mouths falls to on a professing
' Christian, preacher or no, and
tongue-lashes him because of a
slip or fall, ybu can put it down
~that there is something out of
gear with the critic or critics.
The Bible teaches that it is a
good thing to get right first and
then it is in order to try and
right others.
.Reports from Jersey City. N
J., said that Secretary of State
Hughes asked, in an address he
made, that voters uphold the
hands of President Harding by
returning to office those who
helped to write the admTnistra*
tion record of accomplishment.
Certainly this should be done by
voters whose hands have been
held up and who are being robbed
daily by a party playing into
the hands of big business.
Some folks have the erroneous
idea tucked away in their cranium
s that a preacher should be a
better man than any other man.
God has one rule?the rule of
ripjnii?ior an men and women
too. He does not expect a preacher
to be a better man than He expects
a farmer, lawyer, doctor,
or blacksmith, to be. He says to
each one, thou shalt and thou
shalt not. He singles out no one
in particular, but requires of all
to live correct lives.
Yes, she outwitted her father.
His name is Jesse Sanderson.
He was convicted in 1901 of having
killed a man and was given
a life sentence in the Louisiana
penitentiary. He escaped and
# went to Missouri and there married.
A young man was paying
attention to his daughter fend
% when the father drove the young
awain away, the maiden took her
revenge bv notifying the prison
authorities about her father's
whereabouts and now he is in the
toils again. Not that she loved
the old man less but that she
loved the young m*Q mpre*

TEE BOLL WEEVIL FIGHT
In time of peace prepare for
war, is and old saying- A stitch
in time saves nine, is another.
Take time by the forelock, is still
another. The above but emphasizes
the importance of leaving
no stones unturned, of wasting
no time in combatting the boll
weevil menace. This year about
a half a crop was made in this
county, and our farmers were indeed
fortnnate in making even
one-half a crop. Many sections
from thfe Texas border on up to
the highest point the weevil has
reached have not done 90 well
when the pest appeared. The
fact that we 6scaped a total
failure is no evidence that next
year we will be so fortunate. It
is possible to make cotton in
spite of the weevil but it can only
be done at the price of eternal
vigilance and constant work.
Grass must not be allowed to
grow under one's feet. It is a
fight to a finish where the farmer
will win ot* lose, where the weevil
will triumph or be destroyed.
The cotton crop is about all
gathered- and one of the effectual
means 01 ngnung tne weevil is
by destroying the stalks which
furnish places of abode for the
weevil thrbugh the winter. To
burn the stalks is not good business,
but to plow them under and
plant cover crops is good business.
The turned under stalks
adds to the soil while burning
them deprives the soil of valuable
and necessary matter. The cover
crop is a recognized and valuable
method of soil building.
The stalks should be cut up and
plowed underassoon as possible,
the sooner, the better. Next
year's crop will to a large degree
be measured by the manner in
which the boll weevil fight is
waged this fall and winter.

especially trne of the country
weekly, as such papers are called.
Usually it is a job where
there is not a surplus of labor
and consequently the labor of
getting out the paper falls heavy
on the few. Then again the paper
is rarely ever fully appreciated.
It is a power in a commun

Dear Mr. Latimer:
The Pageland Journal has hen
coming to my office for mj>re
than a year now, and it is with
T a l a. kLJ
(iicwium vimii i leei const i airuu
to write you a word of highest
commendation and appreciation.
L place the paper in our Reidin#
Room for the use of the students
of the College weekly with
the feeling of perfect satisfaction
because it is a paper so characterized
by the absence from it's
pages of all such matters ( as
would debase and poison the
minds of the young, and by ihe
presence of so much that is uplifting,
refining and spiritualizing.
If, as I trust in the caset the
paper is succeeding financially,
you are demonstrating thaty a
clean and religious weekly secular
paper; that will be a blessing
1 I - '

With kind regards, I am F'
Yours cordially, *
President.

The Election
Election day at Pageland was a
very quiet one. Rain began tailing
in the forenoon. At this writing
the indications are that the
vote will not be a full one.
Of course, we are unable, on
account of itoing to paess before
the returns are obtainable, to
give results, but as there is no
nart.tr nnnnoiHnn 1n thio
save in a district or two for con*
gress we can say the state we&t
Democratic.
