THURSDAY, MAY 18TH, 1933 THECHASM While traveling along life’s rough highway a I met a pilgrim, old and gray, And together we journeyed, side by side, Till we reached a bhasm, deep and wide, Which parted thi g short, uncertain life From God’g true promise of Paradise. And there I stood, with tear-dimmed eyes Thinking cf how I might devise A way to build, with my own hand, A bridge, this terrible gorge to span. I sat me down on the chasm's brink And cosed my weary eyes to think, And then my fellow pilgrim said: “Arise, my friend, hope i« not dead, For years ago with liefs heavy load, Jesus traveled this same rugged road, And left a way by men to be seen, To cros s this awful, vast ravine, And if you’ll follow Hi s gentle com mand You can cross to yonder peaceful land. “Retrace your steps on life’s narrow path And gather up yr ur chips cf wrath, Then find the precious hearts you’ve broken And all the hurtful worls you’ve spoken. And then •naemb'e the hours you’ve wasted While life's luxurious cup y-u tasted, And bring them here, with repentance meek, And lay them all at Jetu-' Then He will lead y u safely across This dismal chasm, where souls are lost.’’ G. C. Brown, in The State. MYSTERIES OF MODERN TIMES A few days ago, our Hem received a car of hay from a shipper located just exactly 483 miles, as the snake crawls, from our warehouse. For hauling these 11 tons of huy, the rail roads charged 100.33 and the shipper received 04.23 for the car cf hay. Is it any wonder that they aint hauling nothing much ? —So for the ^Hhe new deal ?l ha* not been a misdeal to anybody except the crooks. We have beer a-plenty and it’s amazing where the money comes from to buy it, but I haven’t seen a singly (oi married) person shy of enough cash to give the 3-point-2 a quaff. Really and truly, it tastes sorter like beer. If the cotton farmer g succeed with their endeavor s to grow another big crop, the R. F. C. might as well make plans to camp in the south for at least 3 more year's. The government is helping the farmer so’s it will have to help him again next year and mebbe the year foil wing. Nearly all of them are plowing up the path to the backhouse and planting it in cotton— OUCH! Times do change something-p >wer- ful. I came across a second mortgage the other day (in my safety deposit box) for $3,000.00. The fe.low ahead of me held a mortgage f >r $3,000.00.

The People-Sentinel congratulates Congressan Fulmer cn the successful culmination of his three-year fight _against the alleged price-fixing policy of the cottonseed oil mills. His cburgeg that “there were no indepen dent cotton Feed buyers, and that competition in buying seed had been wiped out” were vehemently denied by the oil mill interests, but the Federal Trade Commission ha s decided other- ■wiae. A few days ago this body wrote the Congressman from the Second S. C. District a s follows: “I am pleased to inform you that the Commission has in the last day or two thrown out the so-called cotton need rules adopted at a Trade Prac tice Conference, bag and baggage, and ordered the chief counsel to institute proceedings against the whole lay out.” In a letter to The People-Sentinel, Mr. Fulmer writes: “It is my hope that the Attorney General now serv-' in* under a Democratic administration will teach this industry a few things that will hereafter remind them that the Anti-Trust Law s are still in full force and effect," We hope so, too.
