In appeal *caees the attorneys have
to submit their argument* A> the Su<
pteme Court in printed form. Here*
to fore they have had their arguments
printed where they pleased/ so they
conformed to the rules laid down by
court as to arrangement, s|ie of type,
etc. We do not know why the court
has placed the printing in the hand*
of its clerk. Whatever the purpose,
it is another step toward contralizing
everything in Columbia. Printing of
flees all over the State can do the
work just as well as it is done in Col
umbia. The attorneys or their clients
hnve to pay for the printing, and they
should have the right to select the
printers.—Pee Dec Advocate.
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.

McColl for Cotton Clothes.
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. It is an act of co-operation and
of self-’K'vlp,—HiartsviUe Me^s^nger.

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.
