Now, the part you have taken in
promoting the proposed hotel for
Edgefeld will test whether you are
"a GOOD CITIZEN OR NOT. Are you
pulling your own weight or are you
tagging behind, doing as little as pos
siblc, and letting some one else pull
his own share of the load and yours
too? We have score of citizens who
are ABLE but NOT WILLING to
PULL THEIR SHARE of the weight.
Better losen up and become public
spirited rather than dwarf through
more and more selfshness. Money
that is boarded for selfshends will
in time-in the next generation, if
not in this-burn the boarding
hands. 1t will prove curse rather
than blessing.
Edgefeld NEEDS A NEW HO-
TEL. PROVE yourself to BE A
GOOD CITIZEN by PULLING
YOUR SHARE of the weight.

Ready Pistol Should Go.

Having outlawed the bottle, let's
concentrate upon the pistol. While it
was outlawed years ago, yet we still
have the unlawful pistol with us.
There is geat need of a stronger pub
lie sentiment against carrying con-
.cealed deadly weapon. The pistol will
go when the people decide that it
shall go. The ready pistol has caused
the unwarranted shedding of human
blood times without number. It is
generally the cowardly, irresponsible
fellow who carries pistol on his per-
son. A truly brave man does not feel
the need of such protection, if lug
ging a pistol around with you be any
protection. Let's by word upon word
and line upon line create sentiment
that will finally drive out the unlaw-
full pistol,

Are You a Good Citizen?

In an address before the New
York Chamber of Commerce some
years ago, the late Col. Roosevelt
gave utterance to these words: "The
first requisite of a good citizen in
this republic of ours is that he snail
be able and willing to pull his own
weight; that he shall not be a mere
passenger, but shall do his share in
the work that each generation of us

No hotel spells no town. A good nc
tel contributes to the making of a
good town.
Some men are "sponging" upon
Edgefeld-taking in everything and
giving little or nothing.
The four doctors who have formed
a professional co-partnership in a
nearby town should be able to heal
a man cap-a-pie.
Pershing says the Thirtieth did it
broke the Hindenburg line, and he
is the court of highest resort.
IF Edgefeld fails to have a COM
modious hotel, it will be because a
few citizens failed to do their duty.
The Alabama. moonshiners who
seized several officers and are hold
ing them for ransom have compound
ed their crime.
The naterfamiias who has his
bunkers full of coal now realizes
that it pays to practice preparedness.

The very sharp advance in candy
is said to cause some of the young
swains to think much upon the "high
cost of loving"
The high cost of printing is caus-
ing the average publisher to lose
more sleep than the high cost of liv-
ing.
Instead of heralding the fact that
a cold wave is coming, it would be
much more welcome news to say a
coal wave is headed this way.
Print paper, the kind The Adver-
tiser is printed on, is keeping pace
with cotton, the price being now
$3.50 per ton, plus the freight.

Since the government has recent
ly increased freight rates the man
who "pays the freight" these days
catches thunder and lightning.

The Greenwood paper announces
that "the local military company will
drill every night this week" Don't
you wish Edgefield had a "local
company?"
Next to Edgefeld's need for a
new hotel, is the need for more res
licences. A dozen houses could be
rented in Edgefeld before tomorrow
night.
The estate of the late tobacco
king, R. j. Reynolds, has been ap-
praised at more than seventeen mil
lions of dollars. Practically every
chewer and smoker of the weed in
the country has at some time contrib
uted to this fund.

GOOD ClIVZEN Dy FULLlNG
YOUR SHARE of the weight.
Letter From Rev. John Lake.
Dear Advertiser:
My long suffering correspondents
have had to put up with my from
bad-to-worse hand writing long
enough! 1t is twenty years and more
since owned and used typewriter,
and now 1 am having to learn all
over again, especially since the ma
chine l used to own is different from
the one friend in the homeland has
recently sent me. My friends will
doubtless feel grateful to him as
do.
Wife and l were much interested
to learn from the home papers that
the editor of The Advertiser had
been elected President of the Press
Association, and she very much ap-
preciated receiving some copies of
the Greenville papers. When I was
editing that little paper at Batesburg
while teaching to fulfill my Citadel
obligation, 1 was member of the
Press Association-and what a
change in the personnel of the Or
ganization during the years that
have intervened! Makes fellow
realize how the years are passing.
Fifteen years ago this week since 1
left for China.
Thought you'd be interested in the
inclosed clippings from our Canton
English paper-English language,
but thoroughly Chinese in it's man
agement and editorship, and Ameri-
can in its sympathies, so far as for
+, eign matters go.
And now I've had to catch a train
the Chinese kind, that bumps-so
! I'll not write much on the train.
Lots of love from US to all the
friends sat home" and everywhere.
Cordially,
JOHN LAKE.
P. S. We are both just out of the
hospital, but are o. X. now.
The following article from the
Canton China Times has been receiv-
ed by this Office from Rev. John
Lake:
China Dumping Ground For
American Liquor.
The enactment OF a prohibition
law in the United States and Canada
will affect Asia, especially China,
much more than is generally thought
| of. China and other oriental coun-
tries of the Pacific will come to be, if
it is not yet, the dumping ground of
much of the liquor from the United
States and Canada.
The breweries and liquor interests
of America are now sending men
throughout the Orient to look into
the possibilities of the business here.
In Canton there arrived the other
day representative of the British
Columbia Distillery Company, Mr..
M. McCideel who is travelling through
out the Orient for that purpose.
Other representatives of the liquor
interests are also busy making con-
nections in China and preparing for
the coming "boom.",
"The liquor trade possibilities in
China look good" remarked Mr.. Nc
Cideel to a Canton Times reporter
when interviewed yesterday at the
Asia Hotel. After visiting the city,
Mr.. McCideel will go to Shanghai,
Tientsin, Peking and other cities and
then return to Vancouver, Canada.
His company will push their liquor
trade from northern Vladivostock
down to Calcutta. They specialize in
whiskey.
With regard to the extent the
American and Canadian liquor trade
is invading China may be CLEANED
from the fact that that on all the To-

is much confusion in the minds of
the people generally and possibility OF
both parties TO this unfortunate con-
t~roversy as to the attitude and pur-
poses of government In ire handling
the situation.

increase Of 20 per cent. conditioned.

his proposed increase OF wages. which
would have added at least $lo0.oOo 900,

hi fuel administrator in the light Or
the present Information has taken the
position. and / think with entire iust.-
fcatlon that the public il now paying
as high prices for coal AZ Il ought 20
bo required to pay and that any wage
increase made at this time ought 70
come out OF the profits az the coal OPP
orators.
I'm reaching this conclusion. the
fuel administrator expressed the per-
sonal opinion that a IA per cent. in
crease in all mine wages IS reasonable
because II would eaualize the miners
wages on the average with the cost OF
living. but he made IL perfectly clear
that the operators and miners are at
liberty to agree upon a larger Increase
provided the operators will pay II out
of their profits. so that the price OF the
coal would remain the same.
The secretary OF labor in an effort
at concilliation between the parties.
expressed his personal opinion in fav-
of of a larger increase. His effort at
Cancellation failed. however. because
the coal operators were unwilling to
pay the scale he proposed unless the
government would advance the price
Of coal TO the public and this the gov
rnmen was unwilling to do.
