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.

lEditor Pickens Sentinel:
Why should not the I cople of the upjpet part

Consider these facts:
This newspaper is not
a link in an advertising
campaign. It is a com
plete method of cam
paign in itself. '
It reaches a definite
circle of consumers, reg
ularly and consistently.
It goes into home,
office, store, factory, and
it influences inclividual
sales.
It is the common
sense means of speeding
up business. Sensible
buyers watch for the
ads. Sensible merchants
advertise.
Easley Local Items
