Charles H. Henry, of Spartanburg.

that the reason the democrats lost
the recent election was because the
pro-Germans voted the republican
ticket. Yes, this explains why Iowa,

Liberty bonds, went heavily republic

one person in twenty bought bonds,
went democratic; why South Caro-
lima, which decorated the very tail
end of the procession in the matter
of volunteer enlistments in this war,
sent a solid democratic delegation to
congress, while Indiana, which top

for all the public problems usually
has none at all for his own private
ones.
Most other folks rather like to be
misinformed, which is one reason
why lies are so popular.
The cheerful seed catalogues al
ways comes along just about coinci-
dent with the worst blizzard of the
year.

will not see as you do.

himself.
