Folger, Thornley, & Go.

This firm is known far and
near. It is one of the oldest
business firms in Pickens, hav-
ing begun business here when
the town was quite young and
small; and as the years have
gone by they have increased
their business, adding depart
ment after department and line
after line until now they rank
among the foremost of the Pied
mont section. They are kind
amt accommodating to the r
customers, and always keep a
fresh, up-to-date stock Of goods.
Recently they have added auto
mobiles to their business, and no
doubt will be as successful in
disposing of them as they have
been in other lines Of business.
Although many are crying hard
times, they say their business
has been as good this year as
they could have expected.

A $1,000 Chicken.

There are quite a number OF
chicken lovers and chicken
cranks around Pickens butnone
so far gone as TO be willing to
pay s2,O00 for a rooster. And
it appears to us the man who
would do such thing has more
money thar he can rightly use.
The press dispatches from At
lanta say:
The record price for poultry in
Atlanta was probably paid when
Asa G.. Chandler, Jr., gave a
check for 50, 500 for the chickens
exhibited at the Southern Inter
national Poultry show by Will
lam Cook G Sons Of Scotch
Plains. \. J.
In the auditorium, at the back
of the stage, there We're several
coops Saturday night, and on
three of these were great SIGNS
in white and red. The first,
placed over a coop inhabited by
a big, imposing looking Black
Orpington, simply set forth the
statement: Sold to Asa G.
Chandler. Jr.. for $4,000.
The other, over two pens con-
tanning families Of Orpingtons.
one black, the other family
white, simply stated that Asa
G.. Chandler, Jr., was the pur-
chaser. The price paid was ST.
800.
The firm which made the sale
is the originator of the Orping-
on breed, and has Won over 49,
900 first prizes with their stock.
It is supposed Mr.. Chandler will
also breed prize birds with the
stock just purchased.

Cupid Busy.

AS stated last week the effect
of Cupid's arrows would become
more and more visible as the
holidays approached. This is
being verified almost daily, for
there are few days now that
Judge Newbery is not applied to
for a license and is frequently
called upon to perform the GER
emony.
On the 14th inst. the Judge
was called u Jon to join the
hearts and lives Of Miss Bertle
Holder and Mr.. Mace Medlin.
On the same day in the after
noon some young people were
seen making their way from the
depot after the train came IN
from Easley toward the court
house. 1t soon transplred what
their business was, and III a
short time Miss Velma Hughes
became the wife of Mr.. J Nor
gan. Both of these young people
live at Easley and have hosts OF
friends who join in congratula-
tions.
On Sunday, the 18th inst, at
the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. W. G. Cater, Miss
Lola Cater and Mr.. Charlie
King were happily married.
Rev. w. G. Seaborn performed
the ceremony. They, too, have
numerous friends who extend
hearty congratulations for
long, happy and prosperous jour
nev through life.
On Sunday, IL INST, MISS LIZ
zie Jewell and Mr.. D. A. Bark
lev were happily married at
Clemson College. This popular
young couple surprised many Of
their friends in this step they
have taken for life, but showers
of congratulations and good
wishes for a long, happy and
prosperous journey is theirs.
Let Joy be uuconfined and
love abound; may he work of
Cupid continue, for thus we are
promised it will be as in the day
of Noe until the end shall come.

Fair Notice to All.

After the first day Of January,
1912, the subscription list Of the
Sentinel will be revised and sub
scribers who are more than a
year in arrears with their sub
scriptions will be chopped off
unless they pay up and renew
by that time.
We are obliged to do this in
order to comply with the require
ments of the Postoffice Depart
ment, which forbids a newspaper
to carry unpaid subscribers fo1
more than a year.
We further give notice that
after the first day Of January
the subscription price of the Sen
tinel will remain as it is. one
dollar per year, provided it is
paid in advance. If the sub
scription price of 81 is not paid
in advance the price will be SIZE
per year. We do this to induce
subscribers to pay in advance
as our weekly bills for the blank
paper on which the Sentinel is
printed is heavy and must be
paid.
Remember the Sentinel is 81
per year if paid in advance; il
not paid in advance sl.25; ano
this will apply to all after Jan
uary l, 1912.

Dear Sentinel

Dear Sentinel
In reading The Sentinel of the
9TH inst, I notice the good and
charitable act Of Miss Miller and
others, in visiting the poor house
with gifts for its inmates. These
DOOR creatures are not criminals,
but unfortunates, demanding
our charities. l hope that miss
Miller's act will gather for her
great popularity. I commend
her and those friends to God for
reward, and to the religious
world for example,
