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 saht.

thousands of years was consumed
in light traveling from some
of the distant stars to the earth.
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

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.

.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 whpse 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 craniurns
that a preacher should be a
better man than any other man.
God has one rule?the rule of
right?for all 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.

In ticbia of peace prepare for
v/ar, i* and Old saying- A stitch
in time saves nine, is another.
Take time' by the forelock, is still
anotbfer. The above but emphasfees
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, tod our farmers were indeed
fortunate 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 so well
when the pest appeared. The
fact that we escaped a total
failure fe no evidence that next
year we will be so fortunate. It

is (msHioie no matce 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 of lose, where the weevil
will iriumph or be destroyed.
The cotton crop is about all
gathered-and one of the effectual
means of fighting the weevil is
-* a a i ?
u.y destroying tne sialics wmcn
furnish places of abode for the
weevil through 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 under as soon as possible,
the sootier, the better. Next
year's crop will to a large degree
be meas^ed by the manner in
which the boll weevil fhrht is
waged this fall and winter.

Usually it is a job where
there is not a surplus of labor
aud consequently the labor of
getting out the paper falls heavy
on the few. Then again the paper
is rarely ever fully appreciated.

Dear Mr. Latimer:
The Pageland Journal has to en.
coining to my office for m>r$
than a year now, and it is vwtb
pleasure that I feel const! aii^ed
to write you a word of hifi^htst
commendation and appreciation.
I/place the paper in our Reading
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 t<b?
presence of so much that is
lifting, refining and spirituallzr
ing.
If, as I trust in the caset the
paper is succeeding financially,
you are demonstrating that a
clean and religious weekly secular
paper; that will be a blessing
to home and community, can be
published.
With kind regards, I am 7 '
Yours cordially, ,<t
President, i- *

The Election
Election day at Pageland was a
very quiet one. Rain began fall:
ing 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 going to paess before
the returns are obtainable, to
give results, but as there is ^o
party opposition 1n this State
save in a district or two for congress
we can say the state we&t
Democratic.
