There are no statues of men who felt sorry for themselves. Much that passes for philosophy is no more than a Rood digestion. Wisdom is merely the reaction that follows contemplation of receipted -bills. A woman’s declining years come before the'if e of thirty. After that she is glad to accept. • - —^ — Every normal youngster passes through an age when it seems that the crass old world can’t understand. The meek shall inherit the earth.

Big Dance at Allendale. Allendale, Dec. 23.—On Tuesday, December 29, the big Holiday Dance of the Christmas season will be held at the Town Hall in Allendale under the direction of the Gala Club headed by Edward Oswald and DeLaey Shu man. Music for this occasion is to be furnished by Van Pelt’s Famous Geor gia Orchestra of Augusta, which is looked upon throughout the South as one of the best obtainable for dance music and the occasion is being looked forward to as one of the events of the season. About your Health Thiap You* Should] Know ALCOHOL WiK I am aware of treading danger ous ground in discussing alcohol even as medicine, it has no other legitimate use, but that any agent good for ri^kness should be des- ’ troyed, I emphatically deny. , Go^l l^ads the world as a basic instiga tor of crime.

Alcohol is nearer a spe cific in the dreaded influenza, than any other drug we possess, hoi has supported the typhoid vft tim over the crisis, and started him on the highway of health. These virtues should maintain it in the ranks of our most valuable medicines. Opium kills. Its habit Is the most tenacious and degrad ing—yet we never hear about pro hibition and destruction of the poppy. The politidan cannot Use opium as a monkey-wrench to throw into somebody’s political ma chinery, so he, permits it to be reg ulated in a logical, legal way with out ostentation, as is being done today. The abuse of alcohol is well-known, making of it a very bad master, instead of a most val uable servant. Notice of Final Discharge. Notice ia hereby given that I will file my final account with the Hon. John K. Snelling, Judge of Probate for Barnwell County, and petition the said Court for an Order of Discharge and Letter* Dismissory on Monday, the 18th day of January, 1926. H. Clay Creech, Administrator, d. b. h. Estate of Lottie C. Sanders, Deceased. S. C., Dec. 23, 1986.—4tpd A gentleman from the East brings what he calls a glorious proposition—■ one religion to fit everybody. No more religious quarrels or, prejudice. It won’t happen. Each race wants to select its own gods, with approved characteristics. Some indivdual said lightly, “An honest God is the noblest work of man.” The higher the man, the nob ler his type of god! A Congo savage worships an idol with a pink nose. The ancient Greek said that if cam els had a god their god would have four legs and a hump, which is true. We are taught that God made man in his own image. There is no doubt whatjever that Among pagan gods in THEIR own image, lending to him their own hatreds, animosities 'Ven geance, love of gold and silver, fond ness of the blood of animals, etc. There will be no “religion to suit all men” until you have a different race of men.

Beware of sudden changes. America’s biggest city, New York, does things on a big scale. So do doz ens of othew American cities, from Seattle to Miami and from San Diego to Portland, Maine. Our European friends read with amazement that a young American Arthur S. Williams, boss of the elec tric light industry, sells in New York ity more electricity than is used by twelve European countries with a coml>k^ed population of 109,000,000. The twelve Countries that use less electricity than New York City alone are: Greece, Denmark, Latavia, Jug oslavia, Poland, Turkey, Switzerland, Sweden and the Netherlands. New York uses fi,000,000,00ukilowatthours per year.
