 Herbert Corey, writing in the Bos- ton Globe, quotes a prominent Ameri- can as follows: q believe Great Bri- tain has done more in this war than any other nation has done in war. Germany can never whip her; Russia may make separate peace; France may become exhausted; 1t would mak no difference to England, she will bat tie on. England has raised S,OO0,OO0 men by voluntary enlistment; no oth- CT nation ever did SO much in propor- ton to its population. Kitchener is the idol of England AS for relieving him of a portion of his task, l can say authoratively. he himself selected Lloyd-George for Minister Of Muni- tlons. In reply to the criticism that England has dallied. the reply is re- ceived Kitchener took his time. As soon as he felt his new army could perform the work, he extended the line to 100 miles at the front.

WHAT COMES TO PASS?

And so the days glide by, the swift
months pass,
bud upon a stem-a hower-some
leaves upon the grass.
The opal morn is crimson in the west
SO soon-so soon the soaring lark
drops to it's lowly nest.
The hours have wings that bear the
years around;
A child-a mana shape of clay to
mix with common ground.
o faltering fnie strength, poor paltry
show,
For such small need thro' ways of
pain to come and thus to go.
Yet how brief sums of life, to thee we
cling,
And to thine idol-worshipping our
choicest tribute bring.
O world of sleeping ones, what comes
to pass
While moons and moons and suns and
suns o'ersweep thy mantling
grass?
What if some midnight hour when
one was near
A ghost should come to tell the tale,
would that one stay and hear?
What? Fear a gentle ghost all clean
and white,
To whisper things beneath the stars
some dim and shadowy night?
If it should never speak, just come
and go,
Our hearts were glad with comfort
ing-tffen we should know.
Age-long the questioning silence and
stress
Do mans dream visions ever make
the haunting mystery less?
Life-Life-is wonderful, however
willed;
1t yearning for the light beyond is
half the hope fulfilled.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THIS?

We respectfully urge upon our mer-
chants the necessity of literally ad-
vertising with the newspapers. To
thus stand by your newspapers is to
stand by your community, for, after
all is said, the newspapers are the
never-ceasing, always-ready boosters.
Other agencies may, and often do,
"boost" nightly. But they are inter
mittent, spasmodic. The newspaper
is always and necessarily "at it." To
"boost" is the very breath of life"
to a newspaper.
Nor does the advertiser lose by ad-
vertising. We respectfully call atten-
tion to the fact that our circulation
is over twenty-nine hundred. That
means probably twelve thousand read
ers. The cost is less in newspaper
advertising than in any other method.
Your money will bring better results
in printers ink than in any one agen-
cy you can chose to place your bus
mess before the people. 1t "goes to
the spot"

BARNUM & BAILEY
Have Hundreds of New Features
This Season.

This Season.
The Barnum and Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth, which comes to Spar
tanburg Monday, Oct 25, claim to pre-
sent this year "A Circus of All Ma
tions," meaning one that is filled with
all new features shown now for the
first time and presented by 480 world
famed artists who represent every ma
tion in the world. The entire world
has been secured by special Barnum
and Bailey agents so that practically
all the arenic stars that are really
worth seeing take part.
The time-honored custom has al
ways been to refer to each successive
years circus as bigger and better
than ever," but the phase has become
so hackneyed that, this year, Barnum
and Bailey hesitate to use it, despite
the fact that it absolutely describes
the entertainment. More railroad cars
are required to transport the show,
bigger tents are raised, more area is
needed to accommodate the show than
ever before. In fact, the circus has
reached point where it is the despair
of many of the smaller railroads and
taxes their facilities to the limit, for
eighty-five cars are needed to convey
the gigantic canvas city from town to
town.
There's material enough in this
years circus to make a dozen circuses
Of the old days A "big top" $50
feet long, nearly 1900 employees,
three rings, four elevated platforms,
acres of aerial apparatus, the biggest
stage ever erected for dramatic pre-
sentation, a 110-cage menagerie, $50
horses, forty elephants, a street pa
rade three miles long.
Among the novelties offered this
season are the "Six Riding Hanna
fords, "The Paldrens," balancing,
pyramiding and head jumping on the
tops of burning lamps. "Palleberg's
Wonder Bears" "Adgie" and her
den of nine performing African lions,
Barnum and Bailey statue horses,
Madam Branda's Angel Horses, Three
great herds of war elephants, trained
and shown by the first and only lady
elephant trainers. Besides these, are
go aerialists, 60 riders, 60 acrobats and
60 clowns.
A wonderful prelude to this great
circus is the presentation of the new,
magnificent, spectacular pageant,
"Lalla Rookh" in which more than
1000 characters take part. Everyone
should get an early start on circus
day in order to be there in time for the
parade which starts at 10 a. M, and
which is said to be three miles long.

Lockhart Junction, Oct. 5.-Rain
yesterday and last night in this Sec
ton, but it looks like it will be fair
today.
Cotton is opening very fast and
prices seem to be still good. From
the outlook it will go higher. ~
am glad to see people in bettet'
spirits. Last year there was a great
falling off in prices, and it hurt all
business. 1t will take 15c this year
for the farmers to get over the loss
of last year.
Wouldn't it be nice if the specu-
lators and others would stop to think,
but the most of us don't care who
sinks, just so we can swim. Is that
not fact? / guess some one will
always be in need and want help. I
think some time when there is a coll
lection being taken in the Sunday
school and church for missions, or
phan homes and other things there is
very little given. I think and ask
myself the question, "Who is it that
has paid?" And then l think, who
is it that hasn't given any? And I
have heard the remark, ooh, | don't
believe in missions; we have them at
home" And again I have thought
that if that fellow was asked to give
for one needy at or near home
wouldn't he probably be making an
other excuse, just to find some way
to keep from giving. Is that not the
case with some people who have plen-
ty to give? Now l am not Judging.
| know whereof 1 speak. Have We
ever stopped to think? Are we any
good in this world anyway? Have we
ever thought? Will we be missed
when we are dead and gone? What
will it be-for the good we have done
or will it be for what we have not
done? Now let us stop and think
and see if l am not right.

school convention at Wesley's Chanel
Sunday. There was large crowd
present and the program was carried
out nicely. Everyone seemed to en-

people there. 1t was an all-day meet

choir, mostly made up of young la
dies. Dinner, which was prepared by
the good ladies of that community.

was plenty and to spare. All enjoyed
themselves. There is no one who en-

more than does the writer.
