TATER bugs and skeeters also need a swat or two along with the pesky fly. ThAT Mexican note sounds as if,Car ranza had found some of old Huerta's favorite brand. GREENVILLE is to have a cold-storage plant. To make things cooler during the campaign? TiE Anderson Intelligencer inquires "When Is the Reason for prunes?" Telephone to Booker. "IF you don't think it is a hard job to move, you move some time," moans the Spartanburg Journal. Ever try paying rent? STREET cars in Kazan, Russia, have been blockaded by snow. And this is June, too! No wonder the Czar's sol. diers have cold feet. SINCE the big sea fight between the English and German fleets, "Hoc der Kaiser" can be heard wherever the Ger man language is spoken. AFTER a courtship lasting 42 years a Tennessee couple were happily married last week. But we don't see why they should rush things like that. DoN't know which we had rather have: inflamatory rheumatism and the St. Vitus dance at the same time or a regular job as a baseball umpire. THE Anderson Daily Mail endorseE the plan outlined by Mr. Matthew Hen dricks last week, proposing a plan to d( away with a second primary electior each year. IT is said that there are several l* w yers in South Carolina who do 4o h1 tend to run for solicItor. Thegat o0 them will probably run for er gov ernor or congress. ,-'-~. wtoman has been awar-ded verdict against general Villa for $2,275 We'll give her that "Un Peso" we re ceived recently on a year-'s subscriptioi to The Sentinel for it. THAT story of someone throwving ai open knife at Colonel Roosevelt in Kan suis City has turned out to be as big fake as the Colonel's alleged discover: of the River of Doubt. JAMES J. H iuL, the railroad magnate died last week. His wvealth was esti mated at from $100,000,000 to $500,000 ' 00. We don't know how much monoe he left--but he left it all. AN Anderson man says that if there is a wvar betwveen this country and Mex ico it will insure Wilson's reelection. ILf it takes war to elect a president, let's quit such foolishness. PRESIDE.NT WILSON is said to desire a set of wvhiskers. Well, there's olt Carranza, Justice Hughes, andl several others we might mention, to say noth ing of Jim Ham Lewis, who have an' abundance and to spare. HEESone way to win: Over in West Virginia, whenever the Republi can bosses want to carry, an electior1 good and strong, they put on the regis tration books mules, hogs and deac jmen. The supreme court of that state ha-just ordered these~animals' names taen off the registration lists in ont ,I'T iyed to be said that old King Al e'chol wilj responsible for more deathi 2' ad caused more misery in this worl< L than all the wars, and that more mone2 as quander'ed for drink than was usei nstipportirg .all the armies of thi Vorld.

At a Partlcularly dangerous grade crossing in a California city a 20-foot periscope has been installed so that the crossing flagman can watch for trains coming around a curve. MOST any anti-German newspaper will tell ybA that "Germany has been preparing for this war for forty years." Maybe 8; But the reliable figures of the United States government do not say that. .But they do say that from June 1 to June 80, 1916, Germany spent fees by many millions of dollars on her navy than England; less than France, less than Russia, and less than the United States. THE famous Daniel Boone tree, near Johnson City, Tenn., was blown down recently by a storm. At this tree the pioneer once killed a bear. It is only a stump now, the only part left being a small piece bearing the inscription: "Boone killed a bear - this tree in the year 1760." The r .aghters of the American Revolution will preserve this part of the stump. In Progressive Pickens Columbia State. The State acknowledges the receipt of a postal card on which is written: "How is this for a rural school build ing in an. illiterate county? It's the Reunion school building, just finished at a cost of $3,500. Several more like it up here for country boys and girls." From the other side of the postal card we reproduce: (A picture of the school building is shown here.) There is little more to be said. Pick ens has a larger proportion of white people in its population than has any other county of South Carolina, it has a climate unsurpassed anywhere in the world, it has fertile lands and diversi fied industries. It is only necessary to multiply the school houses of the kind that is illus trated on the postal card and require that the children be sent to the schools to make Pickens one of the best coun ties in the United States. Here Goes That Fellow Booker Again Spartanburg Journal. Pickens is said to be a good croastie market. But who wants to go to Pickens? Proud of Charles Atkinson The pupils of Six Mile Baptist acad emy are proud of young Rev. Charlei Atkinson, who has proved to be so sue cessful in oratory. He is one of tho first boys in the academy to win medal: in oratory, debating and declaiming and we are glad to know that he is tak ing a course in elocution in Greenville He is also doing a great work in preach ing the gospel to the people of oui Southland. He is supplying four church es this year. We all bid him godspeet that he may go on in the bringing o1 the kingdom of God into the hearts o1 men and women. A SCHooL FRIENI,.
