It's (hut mikitut soul who put kerosene Into the drinking wuter of tlm town of York. The gallon of tho stuft he dropped into the tunk of hiteied water wouldn't kill unyboily, hut it would certainly enrage anyone who drew u cup of it from the faucet. Looking for the clour, tasteless product that modern water purification methods have provided for town dwellorH, the drinker might lake u great gulp. Ami would he bo sorry? Well, It must be the eup; ho'd try another glass to wush the taste out. Tills would he just us bud. Tho neighbor's supply, tried In dosperution, would yield tho sume unhuppy results. Imagine, too, the spinach cooked In keraunoil wuter, when It's all one eun do to stand pluin spinach anyway. And the rice tainted with tho oily flavor, not to speak of tho chicken washed by an unsuspecting cook in the polluted liquid, A whole meal gone wrong, one can easily boo. Then multiply this by the hundreds of homes that might draw from that water supply, and by tho two or throe days that it would lake to clean out tlio tunk properly uguln. Add to this tho heat spell of tho past week, and one can fancy that tho state of many of the citizens of York has not boon the happy existence those friendly und hospitable souls are accustomed to. If they catch up with this lowdowu, inhuman creature, he should receive severe punishment. Roiled In oil? No, nothing so soon ended as that. Rather, a taste of his own stulf.

Editors Flooded With Propaganda If nil the editors would "take a day off" und rend and uualyze the letters that come to their desks iu the course of a week they would find that a flood of propaganda, the like of which has never been known, has been turned loose on the nation and *" "> per pent of it is anti-adniiuistralion. This is what the editor of The Herald did the other day and the reaction wus mingled feelings of doubt, fear, pity, amusement and resentment. Much of this stuff iu so written that it is upt to mislead a seasoned new-simper man whose mind has been trained to distinguish by instinct the real front the spurious, and what effect does it have upon the inind of the layman who knows nothing of the tricks that can be played or the false impressions that can be created by the tt?e of the written word? Of course, somebody is paying for all this propaganda. Men do not sit down and write for nothing, and It takes money to maintain an office force and pay postage bills. Never before in the history of this nation has It been so necessary for the reading public to "look for the nigger in the woodpile" in every article that deals with national politics and finance.

According to a local tldherinan, who tried his luck ljist Thursday, the tlsli in Orangeburg county waters appear to have boon brushing up uhit during the rest period on methods of outwitting the fishermen. Ho tells a story in which he made a cust for u trout. The big fellow made a strike, hut was interested only in the halt. There was a little pluytng and all of u sudden the angler drew ills line from the water, and there was no (lsli. The line had been cut close to the barb. In the clear waters of the stroam the fisherman says he saw the trout swim leasurely over to some underwater bushes. The trout fastened one of the disengaged hooks of the burb into a limb of the hush, backed off and loosened the hook from its mouth leaving the hurl) dangling to the limb of the Ifrush. The angler, determined not to be outdone by this trout, states that he regained the barb, attached it to his line once more, and before leaving the stream, counted Just exactly thirty trout landed with the same barb after rescuing It.?
