Oun irt the "rtvst pri alary and the election of Cole I< Blease to the United Slates senate in the sec em} primary, show that there is great unrest among the people. They are dissatisfied with the crowd that has been running the state for the past dozen or so years and they are ready fur a change. All that is need ed now is a loader. I he dissatisfaction next ytfar will be greater than it is now for taxes will " be Jigher next year, and by the opening (>r \hc campaign of 19^6 the people will be ready t?> follow the leader who has thj? courage and the capacity and character for leadership. We do not believe they will follow, h blatherskite or a, shelf-worn politic ian. A new man, of the right stamp, is wanted. For more than a hundred years South Carolina has had a political upheaval about every itwelve or fif teen years. It began in the early part of thi' last century w!ij?n a nian named Smith living in York county beat John C. Calhoun for the United States senate. That was a real up' heaval, for Calhoun had the backing of the low country and the Episcopal church, then alUpowerful in state politics. But Calhoun came back and "hrsh'ed''' the ' state into a frenzy with his doctrine of Nullification. This was followed in due course by Secession find the Civil war. Then came the overthrow Civil war. Then came the Red Shirt campaign of 18715, and the overthrow of the carpetbag government, and in 1890 we had Tillman and Tillmanism. The next cycle was somewhat de cayed, s.ince it was twenty years be fore Blease s too/1, the state on its head, but it was the same old history repeating itself. Blease is out of state politics now, but the old vjrus is working and it? is about time for another upheaval. Look out for 192G, and keep your powder dry! ? Spartanburg Sun.

K n k Hill, Oct. 7th.? -Governor Thomas G. McLeod and United Sttttes senator Fleet Cole I.. Hlease .have accepted the invitation of the YoVk County Fair Association to deliver addresses on Farmers-Merchants and Manufacturers' I)ay of the Greater York County Fair, Thursday, October 16th, both speaking from the same platform in the afternoon at the fair grounds. It is hoped that both of these distinguished South Carolinians will remain to witness the first pre sentation of the big Historical Pag eant of York County and South Caro lina, at 7:30 the evening of October 16th. The entire state of South Carolina i.O invited by York County Fair As sociation to hear Messrs. Blease and McLeod, who will discuss educational, economic, and other timely ' topics. E. I. R. ' News that a new automobile high way more than six hundred miles long, joining the Congn) with the Nile, affords ample proof that complete se clusion from civilization becomes ever more difficult to find, even in darkest Africa. Showmen Leave Money Behind. The mistaken idea prevails in many minds that a circus takes from a town a large amount of money and leaves little or nothing; behind, but this is not borne out by the facts. A show is most expensive and must have things to care for its several hundred people, all of which are bought daily in the town where it appears. In addition to the sums ex pended by the management every member of the personnel spends some money and the Home merchants se cure this. In feeding the animals / a large amount of food must be purchased in the nature of meat and hay and other things, and all are purchased of the local dealers. The commissary for the people expends hundreds of dollars with the town merchants, while most of the performers and management members patronize the hotels and leave their money behind. It is estimated that in every town a | f-r . I show takes away a "velvet" about thirty per cent, of admissions, but this may be lost in the next town or more added. It all depends on the weather conditions and if they are favorable the show makes money, but a long term of bad days means a fearful drain and has ended the travels of many a circus. The advertising crew of the well known Walter La Main Cirrus today billing city and eountry announcing the coming of the circus to Camden, Friday, October 10th, is one of the evidences of he^vy expenditures of money with local firms. A half dozen teams were engaged for the day from a livery stable, two day* supply of meat and groceries for the 26 men on the Advertising Car was an early morning order to a local grocer and many other jrarehaw* will be made during the day. ^ -_..g ..

They think that hy accompanying their daughters around and joining actively In the round of frit yet y and entertain ment* they Will retain their influence over ? their children and share their , confidence. Personally, I think this Is a mistaken Idea. It Is the looker-on. not the player. Who sees most of the frame and whose Judgment Is therefore of far greater value. In the professional world, of course. It becomes absolutely necessary for both men and women t^ appear as young aff """they possibly nin ? for en gagements of nil kinds are given In preference to youth. A curious and pathetic fact Illustrates this. The Im mediate result of the passing of the employers' liability act was that the supply of cheap hair dye in England I ran out ! Until the Insurance compa nies Issued policies covering all risks to employees no employer would en gage any hut youthful applicants; and therefore It became necessary for all applicants to appear youthful. Hut how beautiful It Is to watch a woman of leisure Krowlnjr old grace fully. Some there are whose spirit Is so brave and Joyous, whose capac ity for entering into the happiness and Interests of those around them ? par ticularly of the younger generation ? is so >rreat that they seem to capture the youth as well as the love and con fidence of the young people wlth^vjiom they come in contact. And thej\ what matter white hairs, a vague figure, nnd a few wrinkles If the eyes are .bright nnd lauphlnpr, the mind alert nnd the heart full of Joy, sympathy nnd contentment. | Take s Messages on Fly The Hrltlsh nir service Jn Mesopo tamia has perfected a scheme for de livering written messages to plnnes without the necessity of their landing ?nd stopping to pick up the docu ments. A Hnc Is stretched between two poles about 0 feet -high and perhaps 20 feet apart. To this line the mes sage Is tied. Hy spreading large pieces of cloth on the ground In a prear ranged pattern the pilot of the air craft Is signaled that there Is a mes sage for him : the arrangement of the cloth al?o indicates In what direction ho must fly to cross the line between the poles at right angles. If more than one phine Is up. the cloth again tells which plane Is to receive the message. The selected plane swoops low over the pole*, and the pilot dangles a line to the end of which Is attached a hook. This engages the line to which . the message Is tied, and lln^, message-, and all are dragged Into the air. The pilot reels In his catch as the plane speeds away. If the message Is to he delivered the plane simply dives to the point of delivery and drops the mes sage. e The pilots have become very expert at picking up and dropping mesnages In this fashion.
