Don't blow all your blowing appiratus out at once. There are others. . 4 1 Cold weather is upon us with a ven geanoe ?ood and strong but the woodman rejoices with a Joy somewhat like an undertaker when lie hears of the i death of a well-to do friend or neigh bor. It Is very well to cuss the other "fellows" meanness, but reader, did you ever stop and think that you had done a whole lot yourself. It's a powerful good thing to look at ourselves or other people look at uajand we wouldn't cuss the other fellow half so much. No measure has been considered Ly our law makers In recent yeats thai lands to Improve the educational conditions, as the High School bill, just passed by the Ilousc. We rincerel) trust that it will run the gauntlet ol the Senate a ul be enacted into law. "Lore* God be with us yet"?is a mighty good prayer for saint and sinner, but these miserable guano "shacks abide with us even unto death Let's see if we can't pray effectively and then prove our f<h by nor work and get rid of them, well some how? just so we get rid of them. Why can't there be some effort- put j Xs>Xub-Cv>r at pari: uux .uwu. A 1j*.? ? ginning should c made and the S'?otj- j er started, the better. A civicleagin \ is needed badly. To be a good business place, with as many retined people in lb, there is less care and consideration given to such mattors than any place !n the State. ? Let us not forget thai tlx is is the year we waul to have the old Veterans of Lexington and Saluda Counties in their annual celebration. Give these old Veterans a cordial welcome, the very best we bare and na ike them real ize that now, in their declining yea rs they shall be remembered with gratitude. It is not lo soon to begin arrangements. Who will start? We liave heen reliably informed that the Carnival aggregation, which proper opening up for a wce't's business Monday* is a very qretjitable one and void of the very ohjectionhbie features "whieA characterize so many similar organizations, but we believe it would have been infinitely better had Mayor Edwards *refti?ed them license. We have had an abundance of such shows , this season and the town has been t none the bette** off by their coming. Wc need all the.money that's in these parts and a little more besides. it is quite evident that our people ( are not concerned about a better School building. Very well, jve havn't apy quarrel.
