If George Washington could only see us now I We know a Parrott who is not green and doesn't cuss. Cheer up, fellows; every day'll be payday by and by. Has anyone seen that there feller Pancho Villa loafing around the Texas border lately? There may be better people than Pickens county people, but we don't know where they are. Some people's style of religion allows them to do things which an ordinary man's conscience will not let him do. We notice by the North Carolina pa pers that there was some sort of a celebration in the town of Charlotte last Saturday. "Old Col. Aftermath in Six Reels." York News. But how is the Colonel going to get six reels out of four days' reeling unless he doubles up? Press dispatches say Congressman Aiken has blood-poisoning in his foot. A prom:ne!nt citizen says he's afraid it will interfere with his running. We suspect the entertainment com mnittee of the press convention in York next month will have to build a room around that there feller Col. Joe Sparks. The date for the meeting of the Press Association has been changed from June 12-15 to June 7-11. 7-11 does sound a little more euphonious, doesn't it? Some people say there is no such thing as luck, but it takes pluck to win suc cess. But according to the dictionary "luck" constitutes about four-fifths of pluck. Another pathetic little incident of everyday life, if Colonel Aftermath will allow us, is the way some people want to be the conscience of the entire com mnunity.__________ Some people are powerful wasteful. Now there's that Watson Bell of the York News wanting another shir t. What did he do with that speckled shirt the good people of York gave him last summer? If Warehouse Commissioner MecLaurin is "dead sot" on running for some of neie in order that he may have a chance to blow his on bazoo. let him go over to Oconee and stand for coroner.

'Pickens County Items Two more Pickens county boys, Ithett Thomas of Nine Times and Henry Dacus of Easley enlisted in the coast artillery service of the U. S. army last wee and have gone to the training camp at Columbus, Ohio. T, A. Bowen has on exhibition at his office in the court house some interest ing pictures of the crimson clover fields of E. W.

This year:he had fifty acresof as fine clover- as 'one would care to see ankd it all came from Pickens county grown seed. Mr. Bowen will be pleased to show anyone the pictures and tell you about this farm. Col. C. L. Cureton of Pickens at tended the big celebration in Charlotte Saturday and as a member of Governor Manning's staff occupied a seat on the reviewing stand with President Wilson. After shaking hands and talking with the president Col. Cureton admires him more than ever. He says the president asked him all about his friends in Pick ens and Col. Cureton told him everybody in Pickens was for him except two, and they would be for him when they quit taking T. W.'s Jeffersonian. Hon. Joe C. Alexander, of Oconee county, accompanied by his sons, James and Henry, and cousin, Henry, and a Mr. Meeks, of Pelzer, passsed through the city in an auto Sunday morning en route to Peter's Creek church. Mr Al exander served as County Commission er of this county for one or more terms in the eighties, afterwards moving to Oconee county. It has been several years since he was in Easley and ex pressed surprise at the growth and im provements in the city and county since he left.-Easley Progress. Messrs. John A. Horton and Jesse Kay. of Belton. were in Pickens a short time Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Horton is a candidate for congress an has just returned from a visit to every county in this district. He says his candidacy is being received most encourag'ngly by the people everywhere, and tat he is being assured of support in every section of the district and his chances of election look brighter than ever be fore. Those who keep posted on poli tics consider him the l eadi ng candidate in the race. He is the first candidate to announce his platform and it ap pears in this paper today. Mr. Irvin Miller is out with a vigor OUS protest against the pouring out of whiskey in front of the county jail and we believe his protest is just. When whiskey is poured out at this spot it runs down the side of the road just past Mr. Miller's house and he says it places temptation in the way of those near by. Besides this his chickens have learned a trick or two a nd when whiskey is poured out they make straight for the ditch and begin to get gay right away. Mr. Miller says the last time whiskey was poured out every chicken he had became intoxicated and one died from the want of a drink the next morning. He wants to train his chickens up in the way they should go, but is unable to do so as long as the county authori ties persist in their present habits. He shioulId get out an injunction. .:Luzianne Coffee wil you in every respec ftirther guarantee tl pound of Luzianne w f far as two pounds of tire contents of one eording to directions, o satisfied on both th t empty can away and( from the grecer, He out quibl. yt e coffee today.
