THE BARNWELL PEOPLE
at the post office at Barnwell,

JOHN W. HOLMES
1840-1912
B. P. DAVIES, Editor and Proprietor.
TliURSDAY, MAY 22ND, 1924.
Smith and the Presidency.
The old idea that the South will jjo
Democratic, no matter wjio is the
nominee, will be knocked into a
cocked hat this year if the Democratic
National Convention Is so foolish as
to nominate G4v. A1 Smith, of New
York. The ardent advocates of Mc-
Adoo have been holding up the bug-a-
boo of Smith’s nomination as an al
ternative in the case the Californian
does not win out in New York. The
People does not believe that Goy.
Smith has a chance of being the
nominee, and we are quite sure if,
by some mishap, he should be.' that
he will never be elected to the Presi
dency. We do not think that the
South would vote the Republican
ticket if such,an event should come to
pass—possibly the organization of
an independent party would be the
result. While we do not believe in
religious prosecution, Theodore Roose
velt was right when he said that the
American people will never stand for
a Roman Catholic as President. These
United States will never be made a
province of Rome. And that’s that.,^
William Henry Wallace
In the death of William Henry Wal
lace, for more than 30 yerfrs editor of
The Newberry Observer, the people
of South Carolina have sustained a
%
great loss. While the editor of The
People did not know Mr. Wallace in
timately, we had met him on a num
ber of occasions and were impressed
by his gentle and unassuming ways.
He was a gifted writer, always a
champion of the right and A defender
of the oppressed. He lent dignity to
his. profession and his los^s will he
keenly felt throughout the State.
Peace to his ashes.
The editor has laid aside l^is pen
and hied away to Columbia this week
to attend the State Democratic Con
vention and incidently help make
democracy safe for the world.
The fellow who occasionally re
quests us to write a heated editorial
on something he doesn’t like, usually
concludes his request with, “But don’t
mention my name.”
We wonder sometimes in our idle
way how the manufacturers of hair
pins are faring these bobbed-hair
days.
There are lots of things that a
nickel used to buy. Now one is lucky
to get a nickel back In change.
With so many other strange things
happening, maybe rabbits do lay
Easter eggs after all.
We’ll bet nobody ever suggested
“an apple a day” to Adam.
WHY ADVERTISE?
Twelve Reasons as to the Why of
Publicity. ‘

10. Advertising helps to eliminate
trouble. Great losses occur in the
business world frfm mistakes, com
plaints, arguments, fights, quarreling,
accusations, and all other things that
go with dissatisfaction. Years ago
the department stores started to ad
vertising money back if not satisfied.
11. It requires capital to do busi
ness. The oftener the stock is turned
over the less capital it requires.
12. - Advertising saves time. It
helps the public to make up its mind
in advance; therefore, when the cus
tomer comes into the store he knows
what he wants.—printers Ink.

E have used Black-
Draught ever since
we have had a fam
ily and that was shortly
after 1874,” says Mr. E.
A. Braffstotter, o f S t.
James, Mo. “It is" my first
remedy whep any of us
gets sick. J. . We use
Black-Draught for torpid
liver and stomach com
plaints.
“When I get sluggish
and don’t feel so good, I
take Black-Draught—and
you have to show me that
there is a better medicine
in Missouri. I think it is
fine for indigestion or for
headache. It is a splendid
family remedy. My wife
uses it for any stomach
ailment, indigestion and
biliousness. We never let
the house be without it if
I, know' it. We also give it
to the children for chil
dren’s complaints, colds or
fever.”
Keep a package of Black-
Draught in the house for
all the family.
Your dealer will sell you a
mammoth package,, containing
five of the regular-size pack
ages. It’s cheaper.
