 We feel that we have touched the people along the line of march as we could by no other method A pilgrimage has always stood for the highest idsals for the cause it repre- sents, and we are sure from the re captions we have been accorded that our march haAnot been in vain."

CONTESTANTS WILL RECEIVE iN. CREASE OF CASH PERCENT
 AGE IN LAST PERIOD.
ALL ARE GREATLY PLEASED
Lively Interest is Manifested in An nouncement of Ten Per Cent. on All Subscriptions Received
 By Each Candidate.

With the passing of the second period of the Sentinel-Record Piano voting Contest. the Sentinel-Record surprised the working candidates by announcing another increase in the percentage each will receive on all subscriptions received and money col lected by each candidate.
 Beginning Monday morning the cash premium on all subscriptions received by each candidate will be increased to ten per cent. This is q most liberal commission, and will certainly compensate any candidate
 for the time she has given the con- test
 The ratio of votes for subscrip- tions is not so large as during the preceding periods, but the liberal 1 percentage paid to the candidates
 has more than compensated for the fewer number of votes, as all share alike in both propositions. The Sentinel-Record wishes to con-
 gratulate the contestants upon tie large number of new subscriptions turned in during the first and second periods. Hundreds have been addsd, and at times the number has been so great that they could not be stari- ed he morning after the subscrin- tion was given, New subscribers are asked to wait until the second day after subscribing with the con- testants to receive their paper. If they do not receive if at that time, call the office and notify the oais- sion.
 All the candidates have vowed to increase their ratio of new subscrip- tons during the final period, and their opportunity Is really better dur ing that period than in the past Ar ter January l. new subscriptions will be much easier to secure.
 It took until late hour last even- ing 10 cheek up all the contestants for the second period Much good work had been accomplished and some of the standings materially in- creased. Again it was demonstrated that the friends of the contestants are giving them voluntary. Hun dreds and thousands of the single coupons were clipped by friends and turned in for the different candidates during Saturday. They ranged in number from two to nearly a hnn- dred. Also no less than dozen coluntary subscriptions came to the office to count for the different candl- dates
 Interest in the race of those candi- dates who are not so near the lead is more in evidence through the friends. and this should prove an en- couraging feature to those who are making such splendid race 70 get higher
 It is not yet too late for anyone to enter to secure the benefit of the liberal cash award of ten per cant during the last period. The oppog- tunity to make money rapidly is 2 golden one. and one which should rot be overlooked by any lady in the city who has an ambition to make money. good spirited canvass dur ing this period might win the piano, as well.

As long as the vast majority of far

as it is harvested at whatever price IS
offered, no general plan or scheme can
be devised that will insure maximum
price. When majorityof those who
produce the staple become sufficiently
to be able to say to the
purchasers, "You can not get my cot

then we can expect to seeit command q

Let us Stand by the S. c. c. |,

We have many beneficial advan-
tages in our county and town of
Edgefeld: good churches well
equipped with splendid preachers, q
large cotton mill and oil mill, two
prosperous AID well managed banks
in town, many obliging merchants
and professional men, some of the
prettiest and best women in the
state, and now we have electric
lights. But there is place in town
that is shedding a far brighter and
farther reaching light; and that is
the South Carolina Co-Educatioual
Institute. 1t must be admitted
that any prosperous college Is
great pecuniary advantage to all
classes of business, both to the mer-
chants and professions, but also to
the adjacent farms and people who
raise all sorts of supplies.
Aside from the material or fnan-
cial view of the case let US take a
higher and nober view of the col
lege by weighing the benefits Of the
Institute from the plane of social,
moral, intellectual and spiritual ad-
vantages. Who can properly esti-
mate the inestimable value of this
noble seat of learning, with its
splendid board of teachers, ladies
and gentlemen, and that flower
garden of pretty girls, and that
well behaved set of manly gentle
men who march in military order
about our streets? 1t is very graf
flying to see that we are growing IN
material things, but woe be upon
any people who does not grow in
morals or religion as they advance
in wealth. Sitting queen-like in
the beautiful ornaments amid the
hills of Edgefeld, this Institute is
one among our greatest blessings.
Our children are our best heritage
and if we stand by this school as we
should, and I believe we will, fu-
ture generations will hail us for
perpetuating to them legacy of
that wealth of advantage which
transcends riches in their real bless
ings and permanent benefit. L.
