A LAWYER received $10,000 for suggesting those words to a railroad.
That sign, “Stop, Look, Listen!” saved the road many thousands
of dollars in damages. It’s a good sign. It’s worth $10,000. Wise
people are often warned by a similar sign on the road of extravagance.
They stop in time. How about yourself? Think this over seriously, a
bank account is tlie BEST KIND OF SECURITY at any time.

Laat week The People ventured the
opinion boaed on the signs of the
tunes, that everything pomtod to the
beginning of the end of the war. Ev-
enta #f the post few days tend to
strengthen that belief. , Germany is
facing internal dissension and reports
from the Dual Monarchy indicate that
Austria-Hungary would welcome s
chance to break away from the Prus
sians. The Russian bear continues to
walk like a man and the Austro-Hun
garians fear that he will over-run
their empire. The ruthless submarine
campaign seems now to be absolutely
doomed to failure, which fact seems
to be slowly filtering through the Teu
tonic mind. The French and British
continue to hammer the German lines
in the West.
A Palpable Hit.
Not long ago two
Men were discussing
The war. Said
One, who is not affected
By the selective draft
And who had been
Reading some “dope”
About the horrible
Cruelty of the
Huna, especially to
The French Women: ^Tf

Allendale, July 13.—A party of
farmers and business men of this com
munity paid a visit last week to the
boll weevil infested district* of Ala
bama and Georgia, for the purpose of
investgating the agricultural and bus
iness conditions and to witness the
demonstrations of a machine for cap
turing and destroying the boll w'eevil.
The machine was invented by a young
man of Greensboro, Ala. It is simple
in construction and efficient in opera
tion, consisting of two pan-like recep
tacles suspended from, a two-wheel
conveyor. In operation the pans are
pulled along, one on cither side of a
row of cotton, the machine operating
paddle wheels which rustle the limbs
of the plant, causing the weevil to
drop into water and oil in the pan. The
party visited Greensboro at the invi
tation of the* company manufacturing
the machine and were entertained by
the company while there, a barbecue
being one feature of the entertain
ment, at which the mayor acted as
toastmaster. R. P. Searson, of Allen
dale, responded. Some of the farm
ers of Alabama who had made use of
the catcher stated that it could be
made to destroy about 75 per cent, of
the weevils infesting the plants.
It ia stated that a stock company
has been formed by the business men
of Allendale and the State right ob
tained for selling the machines in
South Carolina.
The party making the trip consisted
of J. L. Oswald. J. H. Hewlett, J. J.
Owens. J. R. Boylaton. R. P. fimnoa,
