If you are unfortunate enough to be come possessed of a copy of It before the presidential election blows over, for the love of Pete keep it out of reach of the children. You will retcognize It at once by it's volcanic eruptions (yes, that's the word) which are particularly hot and violent when they go toward President Wilson's religious sect; also don't be alarmed if, before reading many words of It, you imagine you smell brimstone.

The Whitewater Inn and Whitewater valley 3uffered heavily. The wqter backed two miles up Whitewater river, carry ing great piles of driftwood and timber which were left along the river and ih the bottom lands. It would be hard fdr one to realize the greatamountof drift wood and the 'enormous size of the trees uhless'they could see them. In the front yard of the Inn, just a few feet from the house, is a great tree fully 40 feet long and 6 feet through. The water was 12 to 16 feet deep in the hotel yard and completely ruined 3verything on the first floor of the hotel. Practically all the chickens were killed md all the groceries were destroyed. 'he store house was picked up and noved about 30 feet and completely ;urned around Everything in it was uined. S. D. Hinkle, who operates ,he hotel, estimates that his damage has ieen between $2,000 and $3,000. Mr. inkle is a son bf Mr. and Mrs. Silas iinkle, and they with their daughters Uula and Florida, are now the only ones it the hotel. These good people, 'lii launted by the disaster that has come -heir way, 'have set about with stout iearts and in a spirit that is charac ;eristic of the good people of this sec ection, to repair the damage as best ~hey can. During the flood Mrs. Hlinkle lost a ~hurn full of buttermilk. The next day t was found in an upright position n a field about 200 yards below the iotel. It had floated out of the kitchen through all the wreckage and not a Irop had been spilled. -The hotel property is owned by W. M1. Brown of Waihalla. It Is estimated that his damage is several thousand lollars. When asked about getting pay for the damage done his property, M~r. Brown said that he expected to be paid. He stated that he was willing to place his case In the hands of men familar with conditions and to be satis fled with the estimate that they should .' place upon it, but that he expected the.., roxaway company to pay him damages, The crops are completely devastated all along the Whitewater and Keowee \3 rivers. The section of road by the Chapman bridge known as the laurel, which affords some of t'he prettiest scenery in the South, has been com pletely demolished. ,This road ran along a ledge in a bend in the river and now nothing is left lBut the rocky preci pice. A new road had just been graded K from the laurel to,ward the, hotel and now this in rendered worthless. The damage In the mountain section of Pickens and Ocente counties has. been great. A. N. Lumsford, state organizer, last week organized a healthy Rled Men lodge in Pickens with thirty-three memi bers. The following officers wore elect ed: Ifr. Fi. S. Porter, sachem; J. N.
