Annual Excursion.
August tth, 1911.

On August II the Southern rail
road will operate special train
from Augusta TO Washington, d.
c., making the very low rate Of
*l2.75 from Edge6eld to tho ma
tional capital and return. This will
give those who desire to take a sum
mer trip a splendid opportunity to
visit Washington. From an educa-
tional tandpoint there is no other
city in America that offers so many
attractions 10 visitors. A week
could be spent in Washington very
proftably and then there would be
many things of interest vet to be
seen. We would like to see num-
Der of Edgefeld people take advan'
tage of the very low rate to Wash
ington. There are also special rates
offered to points in Virginia and
North Carolina. Read the large adj

Consider the Knocker.

One Of our exchanges said recent
lv: Newspaper men have hard
time. If we say nice things in oul
paper, we seldom hear from them,
but if We make a mistake, or il
some one fails to see what they
think we ought to see, the paper is
criticised"
That's too sadly true. Its an old
saw shat the doctor buries his mis-
takes, but the newspaper man can't
hide his" Did it ever occur to
you, how few mistakes creep into
the newspapers. In yesterdays
issue of The Daily Inte!ligencer,
there were nearly 200 separate arti,
cles and items. Is there merchant
in Anderson who can 60 on day af-
ter day, wrapping up 200 separate
articles without making some mis-.
takes?
Newspaper workers are a proud
race of people. They love their
' ork. They are jealous of its good
repute. And whenever you hear a
sore head or failure, or a cheal.
Job hunter, knocking newspapers,
don't believe what he says. He
might be the biggest and meanest
liar in creation. The best way is
to read the newspaper and see for
yourself what 1t is. The man who
can't use newspapers for his selfish
ends abuses them. Anderson In
telliUencer.
