Carey, Jr., who was selected by the people of Pickens county in the last primary elec tion to represent them in the house of representatives of South Carolina, will be one of the youngest members of that body, and his friends think will be one of the best, also. Mr. Carev is the eldest child of Mr. James P. and Mrs. Lynda Carey, of Pickens, and was born in Woodbury, Ga., on August 27, 1886, which, according to modern times, makes him slight ly more than twenty-eight years old, and into those twenty-eight years are crowded experiences of many kinds which will be use ful to him in future years. When a boy Jim attended the Pickens graded school, when he wasn't doing something else,and he didn't have to study as hard as tha other fellows to learn his lessons. It is not recorded that he ever lay on the. floor and studied his lessons by a pine knot fire, but he knew his lessons. Later he attended Clemson Col lege and then studied law with his father in Pickens, and at the age of twenty-one was admitted JAMES P. CAREY, JR. to the bar of South Carolina and began practicing law, being a member of the fra of Carey & , arey, which, by the way, is one of the strongest legal firms of the state. Since he reached his majority Mr. Carey has served in many] official capacities. among them being city ati~orney for the City of Pickens, attorney for Pickens county and clerk of the board of county commissioners, United States commissioner for Pickens county four years, and has been appointed several times to act as solicitor for Pickens county, and in all these capacities he acquitted himself splendidly and gave en tire satisfaction. He is now local counsel for the Southern railway and a director in the Keowee Bank. Mr. Carey is not only well and favorably known in his home county, but is one of the best known young men in the state, and his friends not only wish for him continued and growing success, but expect it. In 1913 Mr. Carey was married to Miss Katherine Robinson, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. E.. Robinson of Easley and they have a beautiful and real home in Pickens, where Jim now spends his happiest hours. The Newberry Observer tells of a clock in Newberry county which has been running 157 years. It must have been one of those eight-day clocks, wound up. When the late Mat Cooley was selling clocks thru this sec tion years ago, he was explain ing to a lady that the clock would run eight days without :windine-, wereupon the good old soul replied, "Good Lawsy; reckon how long the thing would run if you wound it up?" The Bessemer City (N. C., Journal, a new paper, came to us recently with a tale of woe in that one of their chases (which holds the pesky types to gether when once corraled), was broken. The Sentinel can sym pathize with the Journal, but if you eyer "happen" to another such accident, Bro. 'vvestmore land, just send down here and we will loan you our rubber chase-the only one in America. It is not for sale at any price, but built for just such occasions Mr. Westmoieland had to deal witb, and only loaned for such emergencies. It is a sure thing that birds are growing very scarce in Pick ens county. Hunters who have been out numbers of times say there are fewer than ever before. And there is no wonder. They are being killed up year by year, and in a short time, unless some thing is done, there will be none at all. A !a~w should be passed prohibiting the killing of quail for at least five years and give the birds a chance. The shoot ng season is short now, but when experts go out and kill rom 50 to 60 birds each it is lear that the supply is going to row shorter and shorter. In other words, they are killed faster than they can multiply. Squirrels are also scarce, but rabbits multiply so fast they can keep had. Pass a IN"". By the way, what has become of that Blease newspaper that was to be established in Co lumbia?-Pickens Sentinel. We were jost wondering if you ask the question because you are interested ar. d really wanted to know, or if it is mere idle culos ity, or if it is intended as a knock. Our curiosity, however, is not sufficiently strong to care to have our wonder satisfied. See?-Newberry Herald an d News.. We do not give a tinker's dam about it ourselves, but some of our readers may be interested and it was for their benefit that we wanted to know. i Where is it, Brother Aull? Good-bye, old year! The di- i vision of time into months and years is purely arbitrary; time itself is flowing on and on for ever in an unending stream, un til it is merged in eternity. How should we keep the record of our lives, how mark the progress of nations, if we had no dates of years and centuries? Good-bye, old year! Ninteen hundred and fourteen, like all its predecessors, has been eventful in world his tory, and had its chronicle of births and deaths, of loss and gain, of hurricane and flood, of invention and discovery, and, on the whole, has most credit ably borne itself, and compares most favorably with the years that have gone before, with the exception of the one blot to mar the peace of the world- the senseless European war. Good bye, old year! At the Marriage Altar Never was the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. 0. Thompson more beautiful than on the morning of Dec. 22, when their daughter, Lizzie Belle, became the bride of Mr. W. G. Hall of Wilaington, N. C. What more appropriate time could there be for the union of hearts than this holiday season, when the hearts of the whole world are going out to their fellow-man? The home was decorated with holly and potted plants. Back of the altar was a mound of ferns and houseplants, with very tastefully arranged decora tion of holly running to the ceiling. As the beautiful strains of Lohen grin's wedding march, rendered by Mrs. A. W. Tanner,. floated through the rooms the bridal party entered the parlor. Immediately in front of the bride and gr oom came the maid of honor, Miss Alice Thompson, accompanied by Miss Willie Latham, the only bridesmaid. Rev. L. E. Wiggins, pastor of the Methodist church, pronounced the cere mony in a most beautiful, impressive manner.* At the close of the ceremony congratulations were extended, after which an elegant dinner was served. The presents attest the esteem in which the young folks are held. The bride was gowned in a modish traveling suit and was never more at tractive. She carried carnations and . maidenhair ferns. The color scheme was green and white throughout the house, carnations; being thea flowers used. Miss Alice wore white embroidered crepe de chine with trimming of real lace, and Miss Latham was never more quaint in a picturesque basque dress of velvet and chiffon. The bride is one of our choicest young ladies. From a little girl she has grown up in our midst, honored and loved by old and young alike. She has ever been a bright star in the home circle, and now she has gone to reign as queen in her own home. Mr. Hall, while a resident of our neighboring state, has a wide acquaint ance here and is admired by all for his good qualities. * A Few Hints to R. F. D. Patrons Please see that your mail box post is steady, and that the box is firmly attached. Please see that your flag is turned broadside to the mail man as he approaches the box. See that all cards and letters have tops and faces turned the same way. Do not leave letters and cards with their address sides facing each other. If you must ever put un stamped lett ers or cards in your box, please put them on top of the stamped ones and face up, and put loose coins in a small open box by them. Please have your packages wrapped and tied securely. Address packages correctly and write y our own name, tell ing who the package is from, in the upper left hand corner. Please remember that pack ages must be delivered to the b carrier and not dropped in the The above few suggestions will greatly help the mail car riers if they are followed out.

Sliced Cucumber Pickles.-Take two .dozen large cucumbers which have been sliced and boiled for an hour in vinegar enough to cover. Set aside in the hot vinegar.

Board of County Commissioners NOTHIN BElIER FOR EAKlWOEN a Never Spent Any Money That Did Me So Much Good as That I Spent for Vinol." Bellefontaine,Ohio.-" I wish every tired, weak, nervous woman could have Vinol for I never spent any money in my life that did me so much good as that I spent for Vinol. My nerves were in a very bad condition, makingme very weak, tired, and worn out and often drowsy headaches. I had tried cod liver oil, doctor's medicines, and other preparations without benefit. "One day a friend asked me to try VinoL I did and soon my appetite m creased, I slept better and now! sia strong, vigorous and well and can do my housework with pleasure."-Mrs. J..F. LMBORN, Ballefontaine, Ohio. Nervous, weak, tired, worn-out wo men should take Mrs. Lanmborn's advice and try Vinol for there are literally thousands of men and women who were formerly ru-onweak and nervous, who owe their godhealth to Vinol. It is the medicinal tissue building ele ments of the cod's livers, aided by the blood making, strengthening influence of tonic iron, contained in Vinol, whicl makes it :so efficient in all such cases.
