Preston White ,one Of our appre-
ciative and appreciated colored sub
scribers, came in Wednesday and
gave us one bone" As a result of
this visit he will receive The Sentinel
until Nov. II, 1917.
One of our friends in the person
If Mr.. W. 7. Rose, came in from
out East" Wednesday. He was
laden with a dollar which we induced
him to give us in return for the Sem
incl until Jan. |, 1918.
lnasmuch as a fair exchange is no
robbery, The Sentinel does not feel
disposed to criticize itself for having
taken one simoleon from Mr.. l.. A..
Martin, of Graysport. who recently
made a little pecuniary visit to this
'aoWo ~.
The Sentinel is rapidly extending
its circulation thruout the Lone Star
State. A new subscriber embodied
by Mrs. j. A. Fielder was added to
u mailing list recently. She will
also receive "Woman's World"
Farm & Home" "Today's," and q
free Pattern for the extra quarter.
Our hearts are no longer sad. No
longer our lives in the yellow leaf.
Another dollar from Memphis has
come, freighted with ~gladness. Mrs.
Maggie Ladd, of that city, sent it.
y
Mr.. Sam Laycock, who for many
L. -.-- n--l-
happy with his ever-ready wit and
never-failing cou1teousness, dug out
one twenty-five for The Sentinel and
Club A.
Mrs. A. f. Horton is another of
our many lady friends who has re-
membered US at this happy Yuletide
season. In dollars and cents, her re-
membrance was two dollars.
We certainly are drawing a lot of
good money from Holcomb this year.
Mr.. c. O. Aven is the one to whom,
at this time, our thanks are due, as
ne let us have So, which we assure
him will be used properly.
Mrs. j. NJ. Williams will get the
paper another year, thanks to a time
ly renewal on the part of her son-in-
law, Mr.. Wade Stokes.
Still they come. Is there 10 way
to stop 'em? My, my. we never have
time to go across the street and slake
our thirst at the soft drink empOr-
ium. Mr.. c. F. Woodson just had to
pay his dollar. Well, we suppose we
must take it, if he insists.
Mrs. b c. Adams is another of our
lady friends who has honored US with
an extension of her subscription.
Thanks,
One copy of The Sentinel, at least,
will have an opportunity to bask in
the sun-kissed slopes of California,
and, perhaps, hear the roar of the
mighty Pacific. Mrs. J. B. Keister,
of Berkeley, will get the paper, and
we hobe will permit it to have these
liberties.
Mrs. l.. A. Jennings, of Okolona,
is going to have her date line extend
ed to December, 1918, thanks to an
opportune remittance of two dollars.
