Some family trees have borne noth ing but wormy fruit in recent years. preparatory to putting down a con crete floor discovered a half-pint bottle of “Paul Jones” whiskey. It is understood that there was consider able excitement when the news of the discovery was noised abroad and there were ' a few predictions that other floors in the city would be torn up in a further seach for the “0 be joyful.” Better let the stuff alone. Home brew has caused trouble from the days of Noah on down. Many of those who claim that pro hibition will not work have never believed in it, anyway. There is still money in tarming. An Iowa man plowed up $1,300 in gold coins the other day. Another of the mysteries of life is why the other fellow’s poor judge ment so often works out right. A peevish old batcnelor remarked the other day that he believed that all the babies in town nad organised a bawl club. You have noticen ofcourse, that the fellows who knows just how a thing should be done are usually do ing something else. An Indiana man is the father of 32 children. And a London paper suggests that he should be invited to join the League of Nations. Democratic leaders are predicting a Democratic victory in 1D22, and Republicans leaders ■ t predicting a Republican victory. And there you are. A fellow who doesn’t like the stuff remarked the other day Inal eggs might be cheaper if so many of them were not wasted in making mayonatse. There is a good deal of talk alniut a standard of wages and a standard of living, but what is needed quite as badly as anything else is a stand ard of work. A contemporary ask, “What does a man cherish moat—his wife or hit pocketbook?" Well, we would say that it dependa upon the kind of wife that he has—and tha sue of his pocketbaok. Long Branch Philosophy We were told that when Harding and them fellows up there ended the state of war and when the Fe«ieral reserve Ranks were established and the Coton Corporation got in op- poration and when all the couwr.es that needed our staple and began '•» get and when the cost of living come down and labor got plentioui we would have such a glorious time that we could begin to look for the 3um i and*—- behold ' all these things and many more have come to pass and the out look for the p )«>r Burra and nigger a#d some others is perhaps the poorest it ever has been, cotton on the exchange goes <df on improved prospects in the be’t, but we cant see where the report comes from in our Judgement half NOTICE OF S^LE State of South Carolina, County of Barnwell.
