THURSDAY, APRIL 13TH, 1933.
About 3 hours by sun, I set out
for Sooky’s house a-walkin. It was
7 miles, let I trotted them off in less
than an Veur. f-^wag too early for
calling poipoacs, ,ao I hid in the rail
road cut till nearly dark, anj as soon
as I thought it wa 9 expedient to do
so, I wobbled up to Sooky’s front
door and knocked 3 nice, soft knocks
that donate^ love and affection.
LIFE.
Let me but live my life from year to
year,
With forward face and reluctant soul,
Not hastening to, nor turning from the
goal;
Not mourning for the things that
disappear
In the dim past, nor holding back to
fear
From what the future veils; but with
a whole
And happy heart that pay s its toll'
To youth and age, and travels on with
cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or
down,
Through rough or smooth, the journey
will be joy;
Still seeking what I sought when but
a boy—
New friendships, high adventure and
a crown,
I shall grow pld, but never lose life’s
zest, —-—-—
Because the road’s l« s t turn will be
the best.
—Henry Van Dyke.
Charleston the Incorrigible.
Trust Charleston to be "different.”
Saturday, while the bill to legalize
the sale of beer in South Carolina was
gtill pending in the general assembly,
truck load s of the new 3.2 per cent,
brew were sold openly and above
board in a King Street store. And
did the thirsty imbibe? Oh, boy! and
how!
The occurrence was “played up
prominently in Sunday's i?sue of the
daily newspapeis and we learn from
the same source Monday that no ac
tion had been taken by either State
or federal officers, while Mayor May-
bank frankly said that it was no affair
of his police department.
Of course, the sale of the new beer
is as much a violation of the State
prohibition laws a s i g that of “mean
likker" —or, at least, most of the leg
islators take that viewpoint, although
we believe one or two of the bolder
spirits have express <?d Ihe opinion
that such i 8 not the case. However,
the fact remains that beer legislation
is now pending in the legislature and
even Charleston should have been a
little more discreet in the matter, to
aay the least.
Needleg S to say, the State derived
no revenue whatever from the sale of
the beer in the city by the sea, and
that, primarily, is what most of us
are interested in just now.
Sooky’s daddy came to the d^r
and jerked it open and said, “^hat-
yer want?” I said, “Please maiam, i s
your Mis s Sooky to the housed” He
said, “Yes, what you want with-er?”
1 almost fell dead, as I couldn’t tell
him. Then I mumbl^\“I have a
package for Sooky’/ and he said,
“Gimme the package, I’ll givvit to
her.” But I didn’t have no package.
About that time Sooky hove in
sight, thank the Lord. She saved
my life. She said, “Aw, paw, you
go back to the kitchen and eat your
supper. Me and Gee i s going to study
our school lessens”. Paw went back.
Sooky and I sat down on a bench in
rhe front pi-izza. I bragged on the
fine weather and the moon and the
north star for about 30 minutes, then
got up and said, “Good bye, Sooky,
this ain’t nice like a straw ride, i s it?”
and she said, “No, it ain’t.” I got
home about 7:50 but I never got over
that disappointment.
Pot Soup.
Here is the prayer'of the average
politician: “Oh, Lord, please help
the government to cut everybody’s
salary except mine and my wife’ s and
my sons and their wive’s, us 54 and
no more.” J ’ 1 -
Some of our congressmen can’t
see any further than their own front
door. They don’t realize that it is
necessary to” acknowledge "that we
have been and are possibly yet facing
an emergency, and that more is at
stake than their office.
; Nobody’s Business
By Gee McGee.
My First Love Affair.
1 fell in love when I wa« about
18 years old and I fell hard, too. She
had brown ayes and brown hair and
•orter brown skin and wore a brown
calico dress and her name was Sooky
Brown, but I think they called her
“Sooky” for short; her real name was
Sue.
-—I had been eye-ing Sooky for
over a year, but being of an extreme
ly bashful temperament, I had never
let on to her that I thought she was
sweet and divine and beautiful and
pretty and a H of them nice things,
in fact, I had never even touched her.
That famous love-spell came over
me one night when we were on a straw
ride. There were 18 couples in that
2-horse wagon body covered with
straw and naturally, we all had to sit
close. Sooky almost sat in my lap,
much to my chagrin and embarrass
ment at first, but after we got ’way
off in the dark, I kinder enjoyed be
ing a lap-lander. And I held Sooky’s
hand for the first time.
0ur railroad commission directed
the telephone company to cut its
rates about 00 days ago. So far the
subscribers have saved $0.00, and if
they continue these new low’ rates,
the public will save $0.00 during the
next 12 months. Since the war, the
government controlled interests have
reduced their rates and as-essments
in the sum of $0.00, thu s permitting
a total saving of $0.00 for which we
are not unmindful.

Cotton Letter.
New York, April 5:—A bo!I weevil
was found rolled up in a 20-duilar gold
certificate in the pocket of a federal
farm loan employee and Liverpool
broke 24 points, but this !os s was ful
ly recovered when it looked like rain
and smelt like dust in Texas. The
bank moratorium, unloosed nearly
$275.00 to the bulls, and they have
re-entered the market on the wrong
side an ( j that accounts for the shorts
selling long and the longs selling
short, however, the nearby months
are firm to easy. Expoit? 24.000; im
ports 24,000; sales 24,000; afloat 24,-
000. Result, nothing. The marjket
closed steady.
This good old country of ours ha s
swallowed millions of misrepresenta
tions from the higher-ups. New
York City has been a veritable nest
of bunk and bunco-steere’s. The big
boys have haJ^ peddlers galore dish
ing otlt their worthless stocks and
bonds—which is only another polite
way to steal. That’s what is wrong
with us. We’ve been robbed snagged,
sand-bagged and deceived by our
leaders for 10 or 12 yearf^and now—
we must start all over again and
deal with honorable people instead of
fraudulent shysters. They got me
for $12.00.
I mustered up enougfr* boldness
and courage to call on Sooky the
following Saturday night. I dolled
myself up in my new jeans suit,
blacked my shoes with grease from
tke dish water, smoothed down my
hair with hog lard, slipped a few
4raps of lister Sallies Hoyt’s cologne
eato my shirt bosom, I had washed
real good with sweet smelling
and let the suds dry on me.
...They are letting Zangara write
a history of his life. Who (igres any
thing—about his history ? “ Here’s
how it should be written: “Zangara, a
nothing, a bunch of scum, an imbe
cile, a bolshevist, a rat, a scalawag,
an undeesirable, a skunk, a murderer,
was electrocuted 42 years too late
last Friday by the sheriff of Miami,
Florida.”

1.—Th^^man who tells me, “I have

9.—The runt who rushes past me

his own h:me only 50 yardg further

10.—The bone-head w h3 toots his
horn behind me when 3 other cars in
front of me have choked down.
11.—The butcher-man who sells me
one of his hands every time I buy a
piece of beef, but keeps his hand and
hands me the beef. I wouldn’t mind
it so much if he’d c 11 * the hand off and
let me throw it away for the benefit
of humanity.
12.—The loafer who explains how
he lost $100,000.00 during the depres

money it was that he lost.
