Mr. R. H. Greneker our local re ^
porter has gone off Tor the red hill s
of Laurens county to take a week o w
much needed rest. He says ne is g:-? t<
ing to remain in the country and i 3>( p
nothing but eat fried chicken and re , n
and sleep. He does not even expect n
q wioif +r> of T,anre>ns 1 /I

So if there should be, as there will fc% t
a shortage of locals and personals a1 y
_ " the two issues this week the l^ade a
?nay know the reason why. Mr. Gren f
eker is a faithful and conscientiou ti
"worker and has few equals as a gratu ^
erer and collector of local happening fo
and he knows how to dish them oitj y,
so as to make them palatable. <j
Jiope he may enjoy his rest and cor.# tl

sociation of attorneys general as i (
very patriotic deliverance, which us j.
doubt was a just and proper compll j r
meat. It then goes on to add that c
j s
nothing else could have been expect i i

ed from Mr. Peeples, because soma c

ed the paper and can not, therefore'
quote the paragraph exactly, but thi j ^
is about the substance of it. j K
While not saying so it could hav j
j
reference to none other than ConJ
? gressman Fred Dominick, who was \ tc
former assistant' attorney general > ir
This is not the first time that the ?j(
Record has gone out of its way to a]
make a fling a~t Mr. Dominick. W* CJ
love an open and bold and fearless sj
fighter, but these insinuators and tl
suggeetors, we never did have mucii p<
opinion of them. Now, we do not be- aj
lieve that the Record can get Mr. Ik
!
Peoples to substantiate its statemei.ti
Ifciat he called down Mr. Dominick1 w
* _ \
for his pro-German talk while he was
assistant attorney general. Because wa w
know that if he had undertaken to p;
call down Mr. Dominick for his opin* s{
ioa and had unertaken to put the ga* ti]
law on him it would have beea 01
promptly resented and Mr. DominicJc P?
*ould have given Mr. Peeples his re* W
uignation and probably some other' us
^ngs. to
And besides that, some of the loud?< w]
I .
^ est anti-German orators that we have m
now were strong pro-German sympa- to

.We think a whole lot of Mr. Lever^ ^

is his business. He would mase i j0,
good and useful senator, if elected. nQ
As to whether he could be ^?ttfed v 3 CV1
do not know. He might be able to g,C

That means being liberally translai
d, that in your opinion Mr. Lever ha
etter go back to congress from his ens
rict than take chances on going to tn
enate. We agree with you, and
,'ould go advise iMr. Lever if he wer

robably not uo. He is a very useiu

'act is, there is considerable oppost

Another Regiment
i A certain lodger, whose butter dls['
appeared in the most mysterious and j
"""oiiino' mnnnpr. contrived to stop !
| f
! the business by adopting a rather In-!
1 genious and original plan. Whenever
! he had finished with the viand he
j stamped the end with a regimental!
I button which he had, and for a time ;
' all was well, says London Tit-Bits, j
' One night, however, he thought the
roll looked rather shorter than when
' he left It, and yet the impression of a
I button was there right enough.
I Then summoning his landlady, he j
said: ji
! "This Is not my butter, Mrs. Scott"
; "Oh, yes, it is, Mr. Wild; there's the j!
mark of the button on it."
"Just so, Mrs. Scott; but, bless me,
| this button belongs to quite a differ- j
ent regiment from mine. Yours be- j
longs to the B. A. T.; mine to the R.
A. M. C."
