Nothing awkward, not even any un-

by Him who searches the hearts of
men. The subject tonight Is "Noah

handles subjects as most evangelists

gives his discourses touch of new
pess that Is always a rare treat for
those who hear him. Miss Stickard,

a great work. Refined, cultured, edu-
Gated, yet with heart full Of SYM

A "Cockaded Affair"

In a poster dated "Lincolnton, IL.
c., Sept. S, 1922" and signed "Rev.
Baxter F. McLendon, Bennettsville
s. c." occurs this expression, togeth-
ar with reference to the "hireling
editor Of The State":
"And it is up to the people of South
Carolina to say whether they want
= real governor or a jumping jack,
and rubber stamp who will be pliable
and plastic in the hands of August
Cohen, president of the Columbia
Machine, who has been governor IF
this state for eight years and is now
seeking fifth term"
Search of the Columbia city direc-
tory and the telephone book 'aii.' tO
reveal the name Of august Cohen"
We never heard of him before.
;'"ria.rs some of the Norsh Carol...-
iaps, in Lincolnton, have bee. string
iry Mr. McLendon.
The name most like "ALsusz Co.
hen" IN the directories is August
Kohn, a business man of Columbia,
formerly active in newspaper work rs
correspondent Of the Charleston News
and Courier. Mr.. Kohn, by the way,
returned a few days ago from two
months stay in Baltimore hospital
and Is friends all over South Caro-
lima will be glad to hear that he has
come bone in good health in time to
vote in the second primary.
One fears that the North Carolin.
;ans h=ye put something over the
good man. august Cohen?" If Mr.
McLendon were struggling with the
illusion that August Kohn had beer
governor eight years he would know
how to spell his name.
In Laurens they would say that the
trick played on the evangelist was Q
"cockaded affair."-The State.
