But if you wfll. drjrik I 10 bottles of this joy fluid in 20 min utes and let your yvife bust you over I the head with the eleventh bottle I you'll get the dizziness that you | might bo craving:. |-. .This 3.2 beer will possibly prove a teaser of merit ami will enable a l fellow to cut <!own at least 2 or 8 jdriifks a day on his bootleg:. Old | style beer would Tnake a begging pauper offer to loan money after the fifth mug or stein, and 8 'bottles would cause a man to slap his wife, kick [ the cat, spank his younguns and chase his mither-in-law out the back door. .. I have been hearing so much about personal liberty and state rights, etc., here of late, I took a small census last week and endeavore<! to find out who wanted beer and who ought to have it. Our school teachers and preachers don't seem to care for the return of beer, and none of tho doctors claimed that beer would cure anybody of anything except a surplus of cash. ..My department store manager didn't want his clerks to drink beer while on duty or off and the help said they didn't want it anyway. The cotton mill bosses insisted that they could not work a person who had drunk so much beer that he or she couldn't tie a knot or stop a loom, and the operatives said they didn't care anything about beer and if it came back they would not be able to buy beer and tobacco both. ..Lots of folks will want to wallow in beer and it is in prdler for 'beer gardens to erect wallowing troughs for such customers. The cost of beer to the customer per pint will be made up of the following items, to wit: Federal tax T.. 6 cents, State tax 3 cents, County tax 2 cents, City tax 2 cents-, School district tax 2 cents, Foam 1 cent, Beer 1 cent, Fines 1 cent. ..Well, it had to come. Folks are getting d>runk every day without paying taxes on the said drinks. Now Uncle Sam will enjoy each and every wobbly person, and he might not have to .pay out that $600,-000,000.00 for the weak attempt to enforce prohibition, and it looks sortre like enforcement officers will have to work for a living after 'beer and wine both get into every neighborhood. But not all enforcement offioers have retired tor live in luxury. y i * C- * Mrs. Frtd Laurence, of Rock Hilt, was re-elected -ftrst vice-president of tha South Carolina Federation of Woman's Clubs before it adjourned its convention at Columbia.

Dr. Btayes later formed a copartnership in the drug business with the late L. F. Stratton and they xxperatod it at the same stand now occupied by the Hayes Pharmacy. Later, however Dr. L. T. Gregory purchased the interest of Mr. iStratton and the business was operated from that time as the Hayes & Gregory Drug Store, until a few years ago Dr. Gregory sold his interest to Dr. Hayes, who changed the name to that under which it yet continues. No other man has been more highly respected in this community and- no other one has been more deservedly worthy of tho confidence and goodwill of -his fellowmen. He was a loyal and consistent member of the Presbyterian church" one of the elders and an active Christian worker in the church and community life. He never eought position, but was chosen in the past to serve his town as one of its officials and served it faitWuHy. He always had a cheerful "greeting and good -^ord for everyone and met them with a/most engaging smile calculated to win their confidence and friendship in the degree that so far as is known ho had the ill-feelmg of no one, and all, old and young, white and colored, in all stations of life in the community7 unhesitatingly unite in the firm belief that the town has lost a most valuable asset and that truly, a good man has gone to his righteous reward?Kerahaw Era. ? J j - - *[y - - - Plant a Garden For Well Balanced Diet "Grow your own feed -Save by living at home" should be the slogan of every farm family In Kershaw county. We are bold that a half acre garden can be made to furnish practically all the vegetables needed by a family o?f five throughout the sum over with plenty left over to can and store for winter use. All the seeds should not be planted at one time but there should he a succession of plantings, every IB to 20 days to insure a long season of food supply. * To get the most out of your garden, koop the land working every minute of the growing season. As soon as one crop matures plant another. Make two planting* of carrots and beets*-?the first one for ihe spring ami summer use and the lute plantings for storage. The boot tops are a good leafy vegetable. When you thin the beets the small tender young plants are excellent beet greens. The great importance of the garden lies in the fact that it furnishes protective foods. A one-sided diet is almost certain to cause illness* and malnutrition, therefore a good garden is a 'protection to the family health. Bc^in to use tho vegetable? as soon as bhey are large enough, ^lere are a ferw rocipes from the U. S. Bureau of Homo Economics that you may find helpful: * .Spring onions on toast?Allow six seven finger-sized onions for each serving. Trim ofT the green tops, cook the onions until tender in lightly salted boiling water in an uncovered vessel. This will take about 20 minutes for fresh, young onions. When they have cooked tender, drain, add more salt if needed, and season with melted butter. In the meantime toast slices of bread. Arrange the onions in the same way as asparagus on toast and serve at once. Spinach?Carefufly pick over the spinach, discard wilted leaves, cut off the stem ends, and wash in several waters to remove grit. If the spinach is young and' tender it can be cooked in the water that clings tn the leaves. .Start cooking at a moderate heat,, cover the kettle at first, turn the spinach now and then until thoroughly wilted, then remove cover and stir frequently. Cook about ten to fifteen -minutes, chop fine, season with pepper, talt and (butter or ot%r fat and serve. Spinach cooked in this way will retain its attractive green color and fresh flavor. The spinach may be seasoned with crisp salt pork or bacon and may be garnished with hard-cooked egg. Wilted Garden Lettuce?Wash and drain lettuce thoroughly- Fry diced salt -pork or strips of bacon until cripp. Pour the fat and the crisp pieces over the lettuce, which has been placed in a hot vegetable- dish. Serve at once with slices of hardcooked egg over the top if desired, and a little viegar or lemon juice for added seasoning. Fresh tender musI tard or turnip leaves may be combined with the lettuce leaves, also diced young onions..

Youth's Dead Body Is Given To Mother Miami, Fla., Apr. 15.?A masked man stumbled up the steps of a Minmi home la>st midnight to thrust the body of a slain son into a mother's arms, and a few hours later was arrested in Fort Lauderdale, where he told of an eerie ride over three states after a "holdup, with the body huddled in the rear of a stolen automobile. The prisoner, giving the name of .Gordon Turner, 22, of Blacktvhenr, G?., said he and his gruesome burden were turned away from the doors of relatives in Blackshear and Way cross, Ga., and Anally came here to carry out a last promise to his cousin, William, that his 'body would not be left to strangers. "Here is your son," Mrs. E. W. Miller told police Gorden Turner said to her, "and he's dead. I promised him before he died that I would bring him to you. He was shot in n holdup yesterday." Later Turner told police the holdup, in which he and his cousin attempted to obtain a faster automobile than the one they were driving, occurred near Montgomery, Ala. * 'There won't be any more air* ships built. We have built three big ones and lost two." With these words Chairman Vinson of the house naval committee declared war,' as a result of the Akron 'tragedy, upon construction of further Mghter-than-air craft so long as he handles authorizing legislation.

VMW 1 > WHAT IS HAPPENIW? 1 TO YOU? ! *v, i T F you Are one of those who are trying to get along without telephone service, a number of things are tikely happening that may directly influence the welfare of yourself and family. Friends are probably saying, "I wish Gertrude had a telephone. I'd like to invite them, too." Or, if there are children in the home, they no 1 doubt feel severely the difficulty they have in developing and keeping friendships. s' , Civing without the quick, convenient means of communication that ji telephone in the home provides often results in loss of many friendly social contacts that play such an important part in happy "everyday living. Being without * telephone also deprives you of the means of quick contact with the doctor, tl\e police or the fire department in emergencies. In short, the home without a telephone today is isolated. , Ask any telephone employe to explain the 1 party line and other classes of service, or call the telephone office for information. t SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AN1) TELEGRAPH COMPANY (Incorporated) ............ ..ii.iiiiiiiiiiiiA A A A A A AAA A AAA A A.
