PRESENTMENT OF THE GRAND
JURY.

- We, the grand jury, beg leave to
make this our final presentment for
the September term Of court, 1918:
First, we desire to call to the at
tention of the Clerk of Court, to look
INTO the matter as to suspended SEN
tences, and furnish the Solicitor with
the names of the parties who have
been found guilty of the same offense
the second time.
We wish to present the names of
John Smith and Butler Reed for vio-
lation of the Sunday laws in keeping
their stores open on the Sabbath day.
We also ;'uthorze the rural police
to make cases against any other who
hereafter violate this law.
We have sent committees to the
poor farm and find theinmates well
cared for and crops good consider
ing seasons.
We fina that> the county offices are
well kept so far ds we we're able to
investigate.
We have visited the Jail in body
and find it in good condition. We
think the report as made by the rep
resentative Of the Board of Chari-
ties and Corrections has done our
Sheriff great injustice
irregularities in tn assessment of
property in Central township has
been called to our attention and we
ask the proper authorities to investi
gate this matter
Complaints have reached us as to
the contracts for the upkeeping of
the overhead bridges over the South
ern Railroad, which contracts pro-
vide that the county shall bear part
Of this expense. We have referred
this matter to the solicitor, who will
look into the matter at the next term
of court.
We have received the report of the
rural police and have examined same
and find chat they have done excel
lent work, for which we heartily
commend them.
We recommend that the Highway
Commission suspend work as early
as practicable, not later than Janu-
airy 1st, 1919, unless labor conditions
change for the better.
We wish to thank His Honor,
Judge Rice, and other court officials
for the kindness shown us and beg
leave to be dismissed from further
service at this term of court.
Respectfully submitted,
II. G. Gaines, Foreman.

Revival Meetings Draw Crowds

The revival meetings which have
been in progress nearly two weeks
continue with increasing interest.
Large crowds are in attendance at the
morning, afternoon and evening ser
vices, many Of them coming from -
distance.
| Kew. l.. b. Compton of AshcvIle
who is forccful speaker and an evan
gelist well known throughout the south
land, has charge of the meetings and
delivered some powerful sermons which
nave had the effect of spiritually up
lifting and ecvating those with whom
they come in contact.
Rev. Compton is assisted in the
meetings by Rev. X. V. Miller of Hen
Jacksonville, N c., Bible student
with an international reputation, and
who is said to be one Of the best in his
line. Rev. Millcr's Bible lectures add
much to the meetings and are very in
structive. This is his first visit to
PIckens. but every one who has lis
tened to his talks hope to have him
with us again.
Mr.. G. V. Day, who has charge of
the singing, also gives talks to the
children, which are interestingly given
and much enjoyed by both young and
old
a movement is on foot to build a
tabernacle and make these meetings an
annual event. The Sentinel hopes the
efforts of these good people will not be
in vain, and that Messrs. Compton.
Miller and Day with others will make
annual visits to Pickens for wears to
come.
Every one who has not done 30
should avail himself of the opportunity
to hear these great cxpounders of the
Word, as the meetings are scheduled to

WOMEN ASSURED

What They Will Do When They Get
II Is Another Question Which the
Politicians of the British Isles Are
Trying 10 SClve at the Present
Time.
BY Assoclated Pressl

London. Feb. 2O.-Now that the
women Of England virtually are as
sured of the vote. a discussion has
arisen as to what they viii lido with it
after the war.
Approval by Parliament Of the new
franchise bill, which before the war
undoubtedly would have been the sig
nal for a great feminine demonstra-
ton, elected far less excitement than
the average street queue which forms
nowadays in front of a corner gro
Gerry shop.
While the mere mention of the in
PRODUCTION of such a measure former
Il would have been flashed across the
front pages Of all the great English
newspapers, its enactment into law
now commands only passing notice,
and its relative Importance to the
other news Of the day is so slight that
the average reader might easily over
lock it altogether.
Americans who, before the war,
were wont to seek out the places Of
historic interest in Shakespeare's

came upon the beautiful vine-covered

100000 BALES Of
COTTON ON BORDER
Calexico Yards Contain the Largest
Amount Of Fibre Ever Stored
There, but This Is Being Rapidly
Depleted by Shipments-Official
News Of Lifting of Embargo.

Calexico, Feb. 2O.-Agent Jones, Of
the Southern Pacific, last night re-
ceived orders lifting the embargo on
cotton entirely and permitting ship
ments to 90 to all points.
Prior TO this, it had been lifted on
shipments to New Orleans and Cal
weston, but the latest order permits
forwarding Of cotton to any point
anywhere.
This means that there will be great
activity and that shipments fill only
be limited by the ability to get cars.
It is estimated that there are over
10000 bales yet to 20 out from Ca
lexico, which means a tremendous sum
of money to come in. Loading is in
prograss now and will continue as
fast as cars can be secured.
Cotton buyers and producers are,
Of course, jubilant over the new or
