An Anonymous Communication
- -As a general rule, The People-Sen
tinel disregards anonymous communi
cations, for self-e 1 ^dent reasons, but
if the author of such a communication,
penciled on the margin of a part of
the editorial page of a recent issue
of this newspaper will furnish us with
his or her name, we shall be delighted
to put him or her in possession of the
information requested therein.
- v . It All Depends.
Considerable space is being devoted
by some of the daily newspapers in
the State to the publication of let
ters from voters protesting against
the attacks being made (presumably
by Col. Edgar A. Brown) upon the
, record of Senator E. D. Smith. It
seems to us that we recall a campaign
in recent years when the attacks of
Candidates Pollock and Jennings up
on the record of Candidate Blease
were loudly applauded by everybody
(including the press) except the sup
porters of the present S?nator. All
of which leads us to the conclusion
that in politics, as in everything else,
R all depends upon whose ox is being
gored.

“The State and Its Ranks."
\
Under the shove caption. The News
and Courier published an excellent
■ editorial Saturday on the banking
aituation in-South Carolina and ques-
tionod the justice of the State de
posits being protected by a bank,
whereas individual depositors are
unsecured. Reference was in partictT--
lar to the situation in Colombia as a
result of the closing of the Anveriran
Banking and Trust Company.
The Charleston paper also thinks
that, under normal conditions, a bank
failure should be virtually impossible
Commenting along this line, our
contemporary says: “But in the
majority of cases, where a hank
doses its doors in a normal period,
there is ground for suspicion that too
many loans of a doubtful character
have been made. In every case where
a hank does close its doors, one of the
things to which the public has a right
la a full accounting in public of every
loan, with the. exact nature of the col
lateral and exact statements as to
the purpose for which the money was
borrowed, whether for the legitimate
conduct of a legitimate business, or
whether for some frivolous purpose,
whether as a striet business proposi-
tion or because of some personal
reason. The very fact that it was
known in advance that this would be
done in each and every ease would
haw a far reaching and healthy ef
fect. It would make the banker what
he ought to be, more of an adviser
for the bank's clients, and it would
tend notably to decrease extravagance,
since the people would under sugh
conditions find it just as easy, per- j
haps more easy, to secure loans for
proper purpoars, yet almost impos
sible to secure loans for foolish lux
uries.”
We thoroughly agree with The
News and Courier. It happens too)
often that when a bank fails, ugly
rumors are circulated about vaxjous
loans having been made without
proper collateral, and quite often it
happens that these rumors continue
to circulate without official confirma-
tion or denial.
Much could be written about bank
failures, jjut we’ll content ourself with
ABSORPTION A DIGESTION
Tlje human body i» nourished by
the two processes, digestion and
absorption; in the former, the food
is saturated with digestive fluids
in the stomach, and its particle.*'
macerated and rendered fit for use
in the tissues that requift nour
ishment. _ The digestive process/
completed, the substances are pass
ed on into the intestine, where ab
sorption deposits them in the
blood-vessels through suitable
channels; absorption is automatic
ami undiscriminativi; if poisons
reach the absorbents, they are tak
en up with quite as much avidity
as if they were..harmless, and here
is where misc.'ief starts.
Most all of the fluid portion of
food ia absorbed, whether it lias
been digested or not. If not prop
erly prepared in the stomach, it is
unloaded into the circulation in n
form that cannot he taken up hy
tinsues requiring nutrition, ami the
patient fails to understand how he
eats so much, yet feels had all the
time, and loses weight. The prob
lem is with the digestive proce*;
which goes, or should go on in the
stomach. _ ,
When the body i«; tired at the
end of the day, the digestive pro
cesses are slowed down as well. A
heavy meal is thrown into the
stomach, at an hour when its ef
ficiency is lowest. Only a fraction
of the meal is digested—yet it is
all absorbed! Is it any wonder that
the patient awakens with "that
Ured feeling” mid experiences ions
or vitality with no desire for
breakfast, ami with au un-fitness
that is no than a warning of
danger. Breakfast should hi* a
g(*>d, substantial meal; roor-din-
rer the same; and at fvwqjng, tako
the minimum requirement.'Th:*' it

A long stride toward progress has been made by a combination of producers for the distribution
of e.'eotrie energy. 1
The joining of resources and faciHtiqp of the Edisto Public Service Company, (Denmark, S. C )
the Carolina Light and Power Company, (Aiken, S. C.) and the Augusta-Aiken Railway end Elec
tric Corporation of Augusta, brings a guarantee to the residents of this community that unlimited
power, at very favorable rates, will be available to do all sorts of useful w»rk for the farmed the
housewife the storekeeper and the 1 manufacturer.
• * v • , _
The output of these three corporations is drawn from the streams of our own neighbohood—
Augusta alone producing 24,000 horsepower from the Savannah River. Added bo this great volume
are all the steam plants that the central towns, which in the past, hive been the sole source of
electric supply, By this modem arrangement, these steam equipments will he held in reserve^ "to bd
used as auxiliaries, to be operated only at very infrequent intervals, when repairs may be needed to
the water wheels, or other branches of the service.
To anticipate future needs, and provide for the boundless commercial and agricultural activi-
ty already awakened in this section, the Augusta-Aiken Railway and Electric Corporation has re
cently completed a physical connection at Toccoa, Georgia, with the limitless supply of hydro power
generated in the five States of Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, and distri
buted through the switch boards of the Geoigia Railway and Power Company at Atlanta.
The* are the visible—the tangible evidence of the supreme faith shown, by the managements
of these corporations in the business possibilities of the district in which they have spent, and are
spending, hundreds of thousands of doHars to provide the most important agent—the most needed
essential, for the development and prosperity of a favorable section, that needs but the work and
faith of its citizens to achieve the very limits of industrial success, commercial supremacy and
cultivated home life.
