Entered at Pickens Postoffiee as SecondiClasi Mall Matter $1.00 Per Year is Advance The Sentinel and The Progressive Farmer 1 Year each, both for $1.50 GARY HIOTT, MANAGER The Sentinel is not responsible for the views of its correspondents. Germany advises America to tell her troubles to The Hague. But there ain't no Hague! The busiest thing in this neck of the woods is the phone line between Pickens and Easley. "Busy!" "There ain't no Bich animal" in Pick ens as a mosquito, and this is not an advertisement for a summer resort, either. "Advisory board to hell) unemploy ment over United States"-headline. There's enough of it already, and needs no help. "American packers protest"-head line. And the ultimate consumer has been protesting lo these many moons, and is still at it. When a farmer can get$4.05 a barrel for potatoes, as many of them are doing these days, what's the use to worry over the price of cotton? Press dispatches say the American steamship Llama, oil laden for Sweden, has been captured. Wonder if that was Mr. Bryan's ill-fated llama, loaded with olive oil? Everything and everybody are get ting aboard the water wagon. Even the banquet of the North Carolina Bar association, held in Asheville last week, was a dry affair. There is a good-sized town up in Tar helia that last year boasted of being a "flyless town," and this summer there is an epidemic of typhoid fever there. What's the answer? The Easley Progress says that the thermometer registered 100 in the shade in Easley recently. That was pretty hot; but, then, you don't have to stay in the shade unless you want to. 'Tis said that most of those South Carolina towns which have had their chautauquas resemble a western coun try town next day after the circus had bee.n there-sort of an all-gone feeling. G;reenville Piedmont wants to know "how come" we never had a series ol jokes on the Ingersoll watch? The jokesmiths just nachully wore them selves out on the ancient Waterbur3 svatch! Fellow in Spartanburg wished to bus tome striped paint.--Columbia Record, %lust have been the same guy wh< ,vanted The Sentinel to print his hors< >ills in sorrel ink, because that was th< :olor of his horse! A Dutch farmer in Catawba county 44. C., has discoveredl a new use for the -ream~ separator. He tells in the Char otte Observer that apple cider, after I 'ecomes ten days old, can be made int< Sgood qluality of applle brandy with ewv turns of the separator. It may b~ "moonshine" tale, but it beats blint iger likker a mile. William E. Corey, former presiden f' the steel corporation, just home fron lurope, says the war will last at leas 1ree years longer. He is a rank Re ublbcan in politics,. but he says of Pres lent Wilson: "It is manterly the way se president has kept us' out of thi ar. He will eventually be called onu four ablest and greatest presidents.' Many people who read newspapert wve an idea that the editor prints only tat which pleases him. That is as fan -om the fact as could be imagined, fom he did that his paper would not nount to much with the majority ol s readers. A real newspaper does am le Yorkville Enquirer thinks a papel iould be conducted, viz: "WVhen ii >mes to things of general public iterest we try to print the newt s correctly as we can, whether it is leasing to us or not." The Sentinel rints lots of things that it don't want o, but It is news to the publie and we oelleve Its readers should have it wheth r It suits us or not. We have never been wined Nor dined nor toasted; But It It gets any hotter We're going to be roasted!l' Ouu WEEKLY RIDDLE. -Why does culptor die a most horrible death? Because he makes faces and b~usts. Riddle for Next Week.-When is in sman obliged to keep his word? They are agitating "moonlight" schools in North Carolina, which is a good substitute for the moonshine stills formerly in vogue there. England still insists on enforcing the commerce blockade in spite of America's protest, and says she will enforce its orders-in-council. Suppose the United States get up a set of orders-in-coun cil and refuse to allow shipments of any thing to the Allies? It is thought this sort of retaliation would bring Mr. J. Bull from his high horse, as it would be impossible for the Allies to continue the war without our munition factories, wheat, corn and other necessaries. It is worth a trial, at least. Mr. Bryan is said to have switched from grape juice to loganberry juice. Will some of the country brethren gra ciously inform us what in heck's name is loganberry juice?-Columbia State. To be sure, Colonel Bob, we will en lighten you. We are always glad to be of service to our fellow-farmers. A loganberry is a cross between a straw berry and a blackberry, from which the juice referred to is made. It derives the name from the discoverer, a Mr. Logan. But we are surprised that a farmer of the Colonel's vast experience in raising okra should not know all about where the juices came from that go into all kinds ef drinks. Loganberry juice is non-intoxicating, however.
