The Cri de Paris, the weekly Cos

liam Orpen, the painter, who is still
working on pictures of the peace con-
ference, was haunted by the idea, when
he was young. that he was very ugly.
He used to turn his face aside in
the street to avoid being seen.
Working as an art student. he no

A portly Dutch women applied to
the post office for a money order TO
send to her son in the far East. She
told the clerk she had left her sons

The clerk smiled, and turning to an
other nearby he said: what kind
of a noise does an automobile make,
Joe?"
"Honk, hOnk ~ the other suggested.
"Yah, dots it," exclaimed the wom-

So the clerk made the order payable

Aberdeen Angus Sale.

Clemson College, Oct. 24.-The
general progress of livestock devel-
opment and the rapid advance of the
boil weevil are creating much
greater demand for breeding stock
for purebred beef cattle in South
Carolina. To help meet this demand
a sale of Aberdeen Angus cattle will
be held in Columbia, Nov, Z, at the
State fair grounds.
This sale is put on by the Ameri-
can Angus Breeders association and
the Extension Service Animal Hus-
bandry specialists are calling particu-
lar attention to it as an opportunity
to get good breeding stock for beef
cattle. The cattle for the sale have
been carefully selected by DR.. C. D.
Lowe, a representative of the associa-
ton, and this fact insures first class
offerings.
There will be on sale % cows, 18
heifers, 6 bred heifers, and S young
bulls, total of 81 head.
w. J. Sheely, beef cattle special
ist of the Extension Service, expects
to be at the sale, and his services will
be available to farmers attending.
In this connection it is well to re-
mind farmers wanting breeding
cattle that the Extension Service
Animal Husbandry forces are always
ready to render every possible SER
vice in helping them to obtain good
livestock.

ROBINSON CIRCUS AT
GREENWOOD WEDNESDAY

With four trains of extra length
railroad cars, 1,472 employees, 326 Of
the worlds famous arenic artists, 500
horses, 100 cute little high stepping
ponies, tents that comfortably seat
10000 people and mile long parade,
the John Robinson circus will visit
Greenwood, Wednesday November D.
Hundreds of residents of this city
and the surrounding territory are
preparing for the gala day and will
journey to Greenwood by train, auto,
and behind their own driving horses.
Jchn Robinson is a household word
here. The show is the oldest in the
United States, having been organized
in Utica, New York, in the spring of
1924. 1t has exhibited continuously
since that time and has grown from
show hauled in five wagons to a
monster aggregation second to none.
The third generations of Robinson's
is now in charge and next season
John Robinson the fourth will take
active charge. This young man,
twenty-five years old, has just re-
turned from France and the battle
fields.
The menagerie with the John
Robinson circus has been greatly
augmented during the winter. There
are. forty cages of rare wild animals
including Congo the only baby
Hippopotamus in captivity. Fifteen
of the largest and best trained ele-
plants in the country are also John
Robinson. The performance in three
rings, on the two stages, in the aerial
enclave and around the wide hippo
drome racing track is said to be the
best the John Robinson folks have
ever presented to discriminating
public.

Now this combination of hyphenat-
ed names does not mean that two
persons of the names have been
united in marriage, nor does it mean
to announce the marriage of the two
persons named, but it represents the
names Of two standard and very good
automobiles. And l mean to add that
the agent for both of them is my
friend Jack Holt of Whitmire. Well,
he was in town on Tuesday and placed
an advertisement in The Herald and
News for both the cars, and besides
that he was going to Pomaria that
afternoon in an Essex, which has
lust arrived with several more from
the factory, and told him I wanted
also to go to Pomaria, so he very
kindly took me in and drove back by
Newberry in order to land me at
home. Along with him was Mr.. A.
N. Fortune the special policeman at
Whitmire.
We did not leave Newberry until
after 4 o'clock and spent an hour or
more in Pomaria and were back IN
Newberry before Z o'clock. And
that Essex is a fine car, and every
one knows what the Hudson is. And
Jack says he is not advertising what
he has not got, but that he has the
cars in stock and can make imme-
diate delivery to any purchaser. IL
YOU are interested in the purchase
of a real automobile see Jack Holt
at Whitmire.
We went down the Pomaria road
by st. Phillips, but came back by
Jollystreet and Prosperity. If there
was just some way to have the split
log drag used on the roads after each
rain, what a great help. it would be
to the making of at least passable
road, but we can not, and so 1T goes.
