Sackinq tho Animals.

Spader Johnson, one Of the principal
clowns with the Ringing circus. was
spinning yarns in the pad room and
told this:
A visitor to the city had spent all of
the morning reading circus bills and
was just going to his hotel when he
saw red painted United States mail
wagon going along the street. He siz-
ed it up for a circus wagon and follow
ed it four miles to the postof1ce and
with wide open mouth watched the un-
loading of the mail.
Late in the afternoon he met another
Rube and remarked:

Growing Honor.

The crowning honor of our life, as
we count it, came to Us as a surprise
Last week, when the State Press $780,

member. To be clsssed with such
men as Robert A. Thompson, sole sur

hill, whose knightly pen is as clean
and true as was the lance Of the Ord'
ssder; with N. G. Osteen and G. NJ.
Harman, who have gloriously illus
trated South Carolina purity and pa
tr;otism far from the msdding CROW ds
ienoble strife for gain, is an honor
well worth all the wear and worry and
broken hopes of the almost IS years
that Se have tried to keep the faith
Bsrnweil People.
Yes. Brother Holmes; it is an honor
indeed to be chosen life member OF
the South Carolina Press Association,
in the organization of which we took
an active part. 1t will help to create
new enthusiasm and cause US to strive
harder to live up to the high and no
BILE ideals which it represents. The
association today is made up largely
of those who followed in our foot
steps, younger generation-and to
them, too, it should serve as an inspl'
ration. We appreciate the honor and
hope to meet with the boys Of the
fourth estate on the Isle of Palms next
year.
