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.

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

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?

with most men. As long as a man is.

his friends off with a club. The mo
ment he is unfortunate and his wealth

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

In another part of The Sentinel toda
we print an editorial from the Columbi
State of August 29 last, and it is we
worth anyone's time to read, and es
pecially our hoys and young men. 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.
