A Boy Worth Watching: Over in Aiken there's a boy whose career will probably be worth watch ing. We don’t even know his name, but he is said to be a tlegraph mes senger boy and, according to a story going the rounds, on the morning of June 26th, 1926, he walked into the Aiken branch of the American Bank and Trust Co. and asked the cashier the amount of his balance. Upon be ing told, he drew a check for the exact amount, presented it at the window and when he had received the money, handed the cashier a telegram with the remark: “Thwtls the last check you’ll cash. Read that.” The telegram announced the closing of the head bank in Columbia. An Oversight. Under the caption, “Much Ameri can History Has Been Made in July,” a writer in The South Carolina Gaz ette calls attention to the foilwing events tha< happened on July 4th: The fall of Vicksburg. Miss..during the War Between the States; the signing of the Dedartion of Independence; the deaths of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson within a few hours; the birth of Stephen OoMins Foster, au thor of "My Old Kentucky Home, “Old Black Joe," and many other favorite old songs; the establishment of the United States p.-tent office, and the birth of Nathaniel Hawthorn. In all due modesty, we beg to call the writer’s attention to the fact that, for eome accountable reason, he failed to chrmide the date us the birthday if President Coolidgc and the present editor of The People Sentinel. Other wise his A rticle is quite all right. A QualiAcation for Office. Several week* ago. while returning to his home in Kdgefield from the State campaign meeting at Aikon, the Ron. James O, Sheppard, candidate for lieutenant-governor, wa* caught in a heavy raina.orm. His car was washed from the road and he saved himaelf from drowning by catching hold of a tree. At the meeting in Barnwell a few days later, Mr. Shep pard cited this incident as a qualifi cation for the office to which he as pires, stating in substance that "any man who has presence of mind enough to save himslef from drowning by catching hold of a tree can certainly fill the office of lieutenant-governor." We can see no special virtue in obey ing the first law of nature—self-pres ervation—for t drowning man will grasp at a straw, and it was very fortunate for the Egdefield candidate That he grasped a tree instead of the proverbial rirnw.

The other night the business men of McColl and the farmers around this thriving and enterprising city, at tended a banquet, a custom' that has become popular in many parts of the South. But this banquet was not of that kind where a lot of congenial folks come t« merely eat, drink, and be merry, for among other things this gathering f 50 men adopted this resolution: * v' "Whereas, The cotton industry is our chief source of livelihood and whereas, there seems to be an over production or an under-consumption and the growers claim that they can not produce the commodity profitably at thq present prices, and whereas the textile industry seems to be stagnant at the present time; “Be it resolved, That we, the mem bers of this club wear nothing but cotton goods throughout the summer months." But these McColl folks did not merely pas* the above resolution and leave it on their miutes as unfiinish^d business. No. Then and there 40 of the f*0 men present placed their or- derh for cotton suits. This will in sure clothes at a lower cost and the saving of some money. • The more we think about the Mc Coll resolution the more we believe in it.

Car owners have never been able to buy tire mileage at so low a cost per mile as they can buy Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires today. And never before have they been able to buy tires so comfortable, safe and trouble free. This is possible because of the highly skilled research engineers who have developed special machinery and processes for manufacturing Gum-Dipped Tires, combined with economi cal national distribution through efficient Service Dealers, many equipped with the latest Firestone methods of repairing High Pressure, Full-Size Balloon, Bus and Truck Tires. Firestone’s long fight against the British Rubber Restriction Act has. saved car owners millions of dollars. We can serve you better with these wonder ful tires and save you money. Come in today.
