for football begins. It is to be

not be attended by] the usual casualties
during the ensuing season.

Governor Blease says that he is
sure to take away Senator Smith's
job from him next summer. As
irrefutable evidence of the truth
of this assertion the Governor
paid a visit to the National Capitol
recently and picked out his
seat in the Senate chamber. Meantime
Senator Smith has confided to
the public his absolute conviction
that he will succeed himself as
Senator from South Carolina, ^ous

The prohibitionists have called for
a Statewide convention, to beheld

Assembly and will petition that
body to submit to the people the
question of State-wide prohibition,
the election to be held prior to the
primaries of n?xt summer. It is
not thought that the convention will

dozen aspirants for that place may

prohibition.

That cleans out the culture beds or

That is why pneumonia never results
