Thursday, Dec. 31, '1914. w
============================ t<
Resolved, that the time of resolving
being at hand* we hereby resolve. "
Resolved, that if we had anything ^1
to do with it that war over on the
other side would cease. \;
? Resolved, that we will plant that u
little patch of wheat yet, so that our J
own mouths and the mouths of those e
about us will not suffer hunger if
the worst comes. ^
% Resolved, that we will begin the v
new year by boosting Bamberg and
Bamberg county; that we will not ad- b
vertise the shortconiings\of the town,
but work to eliminate the faults;
that we wi'l spend our money at
home; "that we will not beguile our
neighbors; that we will extend, the s<
' tl
helping hand to those in need.
Stripped on its legal verbiage, it c;
appears there is really no benefit tojtl
be derived by the farmers front thele
Wade cotton loan fund. It appears! ft
that the farmer must pay six per,1
cent, interest on the loan and then! G
three per cent, is deducted front the o
face of the loan for "expenses" and ri
"losses.'' In other words nine per'
cent, interest is charged. Then the' ei
cotton must be warehoused at thei
!
usual rates, must be insured at the n
usual high rates, and then the farmer h
can borrow on the basis of five cents! t<
a pound for middling. The loansj ii
run for one year. ^Unless cotton ad-j d
vances to 12 cents a pound in the ti
next year, we fail to see whereby a d

seems that the farmer could better;
sell his cotton at the prevailing!
price, about 7 1-2 cents. tj
The Cost Would Be Great. w
T
Seth was a tight-fisted, hard-heart-! u
ed old farmer. His brother, \Vil-:s'
liam, dying, the neighbors said, from] ~~
lack of proper treatment, Seth. hitch- j pi
ed up and drove into town to have j ^
I a notice about his death inserted in l!
> the weekly newspaper. "There ain't r(
no charges, be there?" he asked. | ei
"Oh. yes. indeed," answered the gl
editor, "our price is $2 and inch." ' ie
. t "Cracky!" muttered the old man, llC
"an' Bill six foot two!" ^
The Sleej>er.
"European sleeping cars are very
dear?$20 a berth, in fact?but
' they afford you the privacy of a bed- ; tc
room."
The speaker was the well-known 11
comedian, Raymond Hitchcock. He i
resumed:'
"Our sleeping cars, while com- 0
forable enough as they are, it is very n
hard to sleep in them.
"I was traveling one night Chica- *
goward. The berth above me was
occupied by a 300-pound broker. It 0
was impossible to slumber anywhere s
within a half-mile radius of that ^
broker, and at about two in the T
morning I climbed up to him, took u
him by the shoulders, afid shook him ?
rudely.
" 'What do you mean,' he growled. ^
'by waking me out of a sound sleep?'
" 'But it's such an ugly sound,* ^
said I, "It's such an ugly, horrible n
sound that we other passengers posi- a
tivelv refuse to tolerate it.'"

The class was at the moment enaged

bout thirty small boys sat in a state
f utter boredom while a little man
tood up in front of a map and made
hin remarks through a ragged musache
about unimportant facts.
In these circumstances the unexected
entrance of the spectator was
hnost in the nature of a relief to
he weary youngsters.
"Now, my little man," said the inpector,

many-ship passengers ask the COnii
leaning of the three letters used cept

here seems to be a general opinion
lat the letters are the abbreviation cha'
f three separate words with a defi- o'clc

ative trend will tell you that the
jtters stand for "Save our ship," why
Send out succor," "Sink or swim" not
r some such meaning. The letters
ignifv nothing but that a ship is in
istress and in need of assistance. Dr.
he call is used by all nations as a
niversal code, so that any wireless q
perator, regardless of the language vers
e speaks, can immediately intercept Stat
tie call of distress. Inasmuch as the ?
