There is no joy like the joy of doing good to others. Search out the poorest and neediest of your neighborhood-there are few neighborhoods w i t h o u t them-and so far as lies within your power to make the day to them one of real rejoicing. See to it that no one within your reach goes hungry on Thanks giving Day. Though 3 our circumstances may be far from affluent, re member that there are many much poorer, and your humble meal will be all the sweeter for being shared with others. If Providence has blessed you with an abundance of the good things of this life, your banquet will be the princelier and your heart the lighter when you sit down with your guests if you know that your bounty has been re replenished by some poor man's table, or gladdened the heart of some humble mother, who will seak your name with a bless ing, while her hungry children eat their Thanksgiving dinner. Yours should be a feast, the pure enjoyment of which is heightened by the knowledge that your table is set not in your own comfortable house alone, but that it reaches out to the less fcrtunate, and that guests unseen, but grateful, are ban queting with you. On such a Thanksgiving feast the Divine blessing will descend in double measure. May that joy be experienced by every home into which The Sentinel comes. - We wish all our friends every member of The Sentinel family-a happy Thanksgiving. "Pickens county elected all but two of its county officers Repub lican, the sheriff and tax col lector being Democrats." Don't be alarmed, fellow Democrats; this is taken from the Clarkes vile (Ga.) Advertiser. In regard to the unreliability of the war news, wouldn't it be a good scheme to cut out the stuff altogether? There is noth ing reliable about it; and per haps if the American press would ignore the rot sent out by the censors they would allow some thing.worth while to be sent out. As it is, it keeps every body con fused. _ _ _ If that Bawston nigger had called on Roosevelt while he was president and used such rude re marks as he manifested toward President Wilson the other day, we are sure we know what would ave happened to -Mr. Nigger. "Teddy the Terrible" would have thrown him out of the White House head first, and ade no apologies. Production of meat in the [nited States during the past Fourteen years has decreased bhree billion pounds, according bo Secretary Houston of the de partment of agriculture, while le population in that period has [ncreased twenty-two millions. That is one of the reasons why bhe price of meat is so high now. And it is another argument for For farmers to raise more meat, t least enough to feed the 'homefolks." A Thanksgiving Thought Though war in Europe has burt us somewhat financially, 1w profoundly thankful we should be that we are spared From the bloodshed, pillage, ruin nd heartbreak that have blight x countless thousands of homes n Europe. How grateful we should be that not one soul here Faces the starvation w h i e h menaces thousands there. Even in the matter of finan cial gains we should count our selves blessed. The f a c t i s that a long series of fat years, together with more diversified farming, h a y e enabled our farmers to hold cotton for better prices, and this holding has now Forced cotton up from, five and six-cent figures, until actual ~uotations show it is today only acent and a half lower than bhree years ago. Three years .go this week The Progressive Earmer quoted middling at 80 ents - a pound, while as we write this the same market pays *cents-exactly within 10 ents of 1911 prices, while our rop may be as big as then.

COLUMN From week to week this column wvill be devoted to the cause of Temperance, under the auIS of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Contributions to this cause are nvit. All articles intended for publication shorld be addressed to the editor of this departinnt. EDITED BY MRS. C. E. ROBINSON The Tragedy of Strong Drink The youth standing on the threshold of life asks: Who hath woe? Who hath sorrow? Who hath contentions? Who hath complaining? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eves? And if he will hear the voice of wisdom, the answer is: They that tarry long at the wine: They that go to seek mixed wine. The warning voice from experience in all the ages also speaks and says: Look not thou upon the wine When it is red, When it sparkleth in the cur, When it goeth down smoothly; At last it biteth like a serpent, And stingeth like an adder. Heedless of these warnings the vision is: Thine eyes shall behold strange things, And thine heart shall utter perverse things. Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, Or. as he that lieth upon the top of a mast. In his debauch and stupor we hear him soliloquize thus: They have stricken me, And I was not hurt; They have beaten me, And T felt it not; When shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.-Prov. 23: 29-35. The Saloon Keeper's Announcement A friend has sent u- for publication the following: Wishing to live without hard work, I have leased commod ious rooms in Mr. Lovemoney's Block, corner Ruin St., Perdition Lane, next door to the undertakers, where I shall continue my business of manufacturing drunkards, lunatics, beggars, crimi nals and dead-beats, for sober and industrious people to support. Backed up by the law I shall add to the number of fatal accidents painful diseases, disgraceful quarrels, riots and murders. And my liquors are guaranteed to rob some of life, many of reason, most of property, all- of true peace. To make fathers fiends, wives widows, children orphans. I shall cause mothers to forget their infants, children to grow up ignorant, women to lose their purity, men to become loafers, skeptics, and "lewd fellows of the baser sort." Lady customers supplied with beer as good as the best home brewed; it will not intoxicate them, only make them sloven, lazy and quarrelsome. Boys and girls are the raw mate rial or which I make drunkards, etc. Parents nMav help in this good work by sending children to buy beer. On two hours' notice I agree to put husbands in a condition to reel home, break the fnrniture, beat their wives, and kick the children out of doors. I will also fit mechanics to spoil their work, be discharged and become tramps. If a regular customer should be trying to reform, I will, for a few pennies, take pleasure in inducing him to take "'Just one glass" and start again on the road to hell. The money which he has been wasting in bread and coal for his children will buy busi ness for me, and when his monjey is gone I will persuade him to run in debt and then collect the bill by attaching his wages. Orders promptly filled for fever,. scrofula, consumption, delirium tremens, in short I agree to bring upon all customers in the world, debt, disease, disgrace, despair and death, and in the next world the death that never dies. *Having closed my ear to God's warning voice (Heb. 2:12-15: Ps. 9:16-1 7; Rom. 2: 9), having made a league with hell and sold my soul to the devil, and having paid for my license I have a right to bring all these evils upon my friends for the sake of gain. A fine assortment of my manufactured wrecks may be seen in side, or at the station house every morning, at the poor house. in the prisons, asylums and on the gallows:?
