Charleston Post credits a news item to "Walhalla Keowee." The girl who worries about whether her bathing suit is on straight is wast ing time. There's nothing to it. What some people think and what they know is two entirely separate and distinct propositions. Ever notice it? The Dardanelles are at the same old place, according to an aerogram just received as The Sentinel goes to press. "England's good intentions," goes a headline. Now, what is the name of the place which is said to he paved with them? "Do your poetry now. advises Poet expert Monahan. "and your journaliz ing later." Yea. verily; the later the. better. If the Kaiser keeps up the custom of giving out those iron crosses there will soon be no iron with which to keep the Krupp gun works going. When cotton gets so low that it won't pay to pick it, perhaps our farmers will plant some of that "diversification" seed we have heard so much about. Speaking of sure-enough old-fashioned things that seem to have departed, what has become of the good old Good Temp. lars Society that used to meet on Friday nights, rain or shino? (eneral Wood has been taking acrack at Mr. Bryan.--Charleston News. Why not? All of Roosevelt's paper "gener. als."' who never smelled b)urnt powder. have been doing that r'ight along. According to dispatches Car'ranza is tickled to death with the peace appeal. Of course, but he rejiects its proposals just the same. lie'd lose! his job as hioss r'evoluter if he acceptedl them.

An imventor has patented a contriv 4mece that will collect the (lust made by nutomobiles while running. A goodi in vention: but if he will invent a machine that will colleet over-due bills we'll take one. In speaking of the respite the gover nor gave a negro recently, the Colum bia c'orrespondent of the Grieenville News says he was ''a negro from August 18 till September 29I."' Wonder what lie will be afteri that date? If Uncle Sam should take it into his head to intern that hyphenated crowdl Sto deport them as undesirable citi-1 ild helpi in more ways than .on't needl them, but Germany ionahan, poet, Irish, of course, says "one of the oldest suplerstitions of the race-and even before Literature (with a big l~) was so much as thought of--was that the poet should sing." Saints deliver us! If Hob Gonzales has got to sing his p)oems, we p~ass! Between the Oarranza cutthroats, the Villa bandits and the Z/apata maraud ers, Texans on the border are having a strenuous time of it. But cheer up. Uncle Sarn will send the Mexicans a warning one of these days encased in a big shell, and perhaps they will heed that. Coley Blease has made a definite statement to the effect that he will en ter the gubernatorial race next year, and winds up) his letter to W. P. Beard, edItor of the Scimitar of Abbeville thusly: "So on with the dance; let jos be unconfined." He should have added ''nLet the heathen rage."

He's grown up iow and is kept busy dodging automo >iles, r ords, motorcycles and other in fernal machines. Seems like the poor mule is getting the worst of it in this war. He works hard all sprjhg and summer; when the eaves begin to turn he is taken into town and sold to some foreign agent %ad .dent across the water, where, if he escapes being blown up by a submarine, he is converted into a common army mule, hitched up to big guns and his life blown out by the gun cotton which that same mule helped to make on a Southern farm thousands of miles from the scene of his untimely death. 'Taint fair-to the mule-and we protest. The state of Illinois has just decided that women employed by the state shall receive the same pay as men for the same service. That law has long been) the rule of organized labor--that women members shall receive the same pay as men for the same labor performed. Many labor unions have had that law in their constitutions for years, and espee ially the printers' union, the foremost and strongest international body corn prising the American Federation o-f Labor, and which is the pioneer in most reforms for the uplift of the laboring masses. And these unions didn't ask the legislatures to."pass a law," either. T hi.e editorial page of The Pick ens Sentinel in its last issue was a dry affair.
