Wonder if there's a square meal in Columbia this week? We see by the papers that there has been a fair down Columby way. Pickens pork chops and llapjacks knock the sox off (harleston waflles (ntld weinies. Every little hit helps. The German Am\iericans ir'e opposetl t. the re-election 1.f President Wilson. If the Allies hole to win in the great Wr they will have to get Mutt and Jeff on their staff --especially Jeff. Ex-President Taft. suggests that the president's appointive powers be cur tailed. But he didn't, say it till he lost his presidential job. Diplomacy has been reduced to a cash basis in Europe, and it seems as though the highest and best bidder will win out in this great world war. Old-line Republicans are forever tell ing the people how this government should be conducted, but somehow they never thought of that when they were in power. The m1an who goes around the house repairing things that a carpenter ought to do is the samte idiot who is always telling everybody how the government ought to be run. lielva Loekwood. who ran for presi dent 2G years ago and who is now 5 years of age, says she is not old; that she still dances, and declares that she may oppose President Wilson in the 1916 campaign. A game old chicken is Helva. A philosopher tells us that after stu dious research he has discovered that no state has more than one great man -one real genius-at a time. Here's a chance for Bob Gonzales. We've often wondered if he does not at times feel powerful lonesome and vainly sigh for congenial companionship! It is thought the G.0.1P. will be com pelled to fall back on -Colonel IRoosevelt for their 1916 nominee for the presi dleney. The standpa~tters have been beating the bushes mightily (If late for at victim from their own tribe, but it sem!is there is no one who is willing to be the goat. If the Colonel is as wise as he ought to be he will also refuse, thereby making it unanimous for WVil - son. Hle dleserves it. The State, speak ing of' the fair last week, saidl: Ju lst it year a fter the drop ping upon0 tus of the gloom of 191l4, we have in Columbia a state fatir surpass ing all its predecessors in the merits and1( extent (If its exhibits. It hits att tittractedl to Columnbia, plerhatps, a larger concoulrse of plOle than ever before assembled in South (larolina in a single week. It- has been the most triumph.. ant of nearly half at century ot state fairs. Dr. llamsaty, ill a. great sermon Sun - day nmght, speaking of the Sabbath day and how to observe it,. remarked that the man who takes his family in his automobile Sunday morning and ridles about insteadl of taking them to church or would ridle so late in the afternoon that they were too tired to attend ehurch at night, would suffer because of the mistake. We endorse - the above most heartily. The automobile that could and should ho6 made a blessing ean be turned into a curse. Did you ever hear the old1 story of when one hog gets an ear (If corn every other hog will trot along behind and squeal andl beg for a bite, but just let the hog get his head fast in the crack of a fence and every son of a sow will jump on andI help tear him to pieces? f course you have. And it's just so, with most men. As long as a man is. prosperous and has money he can't keep his friends off with a club. The mo ment he is unfortunate and his wealth disappears, as wealth has a habit of doing, he is not only snubbed by his. former friends, but they begin to do himi all the harm possible. When a man starts down grade the world sidesteps andI greases the track. All of which goes, to prove that there is a heap of hog in man.

It i headed "A Mother's Love, " that evel interesting theme we all so love to dwe upon. The name of "Mother" is th tenderest, the sweetest of all earthi names and it awakens and calls up th fondest memories of that hallowed pas when her endearing presence and al fectionate ministry made this earth heaven. 11er fond caress and tende sympathies and thousands of acts c solicitude for her children revealed th angelhood of her nature in all its beaut and holiness and made her psesence safe and precious harbor where he loved ones could find shelter from th raging billows of stormiest persecutior and find solace for all the bruises tha had been made. Read it, boys-an girls, too. It will do you good. While in town attending the Septen her term of Pickens court a well-know young man of the county went out I call on a couple of capricious your ladies one evening before leaving ti city for his home, and it seems the framed it up on him to some extent ar planned to have all sorts of fun whe he came to spend the evening. As 1: was accedited with being somewhr bashful, being from the country, the thought it would be a great joke I imitate everything he did. When I app~eared in the parlor he blew his not and each of the girls promp)tly followc suit. The incident struck him as rath< funny at the time, but he didn't mal any particular cute remark abouti ie saidl "Nice evening'' and sat dowi and they repeated the performanc The rep~etion of the remark caught hi again, so before he did anything moi he rubbed his hands together and strok< his hair, and they' did the same. "N< so cold tonight.'' he ventured, in ord, to b~e sure of his ground, and they' r peatedl, with a slight change in emph sis, "Not so cold tonight." There w; a slight twinkle of mischief in the eyes and i.e caught the cue. He straigh ened his collar ahnd they did the sam andl one of them smiled a trifle. Th bash ful Pickens county boy hesitatedi longer, but deliberately stooped down al turned up) his pants! The Sentinel informant didn't say whether the gii imitated this phase of the joke or n< but we presume NOT. A dispatch says the British soldie has made 'Rouen, France, "quite En lish." Now if Tommy Atkins woua only make some of those German a; Austrian towns seem more like home be something worth while.
