HE Pickens S2tinel is forty-six years old this
week and is grd rin. old r and better ever day.
The Sentinel w a es blied soon after Pickens
county, has growi duw4' i.- and no small part of
the county's progress an a vancement has been due
to its county paper which Js always been ready to
+ ~ do its part in any good work. It is ready today to
- do anything it can for the good of the county and
its people.
The Sentinel has seen nany changes take place in
this good old county of Pickens and it will doubtless
see many more.
The Sentinel is not only the oldest paper in Pick
ens count , but is one of the oldest in the state, and -
it looks li e it will be here when Gabriel blows his
horn.
Like all other good weekly papers of any age The
Sentinel has had many stru gles and has overcome
many obstacles. With the oyal support of the peo
ple it has weathered all storms so far and is now
more firmly established than ever before. We will
say here that we appreciate, more than we can tell,
the good support given The Sentinel since it has been
under the present management, and we earnestly T
ask for a continued and greater support in the future
so that we may continue to improve the paper until
the people of Pickens count have the best weekly X
paper in the state. The Sentinel deserves the sup
port of every good citizen in this county, and we can
say with satisfaction that we give all of our custom
iers more than their money's worth.
Under the present management The Sentinel never
has, and never will, appeal to the people for support
on the ground that you should su ort it simpy be
cause it is your home paper. We Sentinl wants
your su port because it is your home pe.)er and
worth the price we ask for it-and mor . Don't
subscribe for The Sentinel for charity sak.e. Sub
scribe for it because it's worth the price.
The price of this paper is cheaper now than ever
before. One year ago one bushel of corn or ten
pounds of cotton would pay for The Sentinel a year:
now three-fourths of a bushel of corn or eight pounds
of cotton will pa for it a year. If the price of The
Sentinel had advanced in proportion to all other
things it would be $2.00 or $2.50 a year now instead T
of $1.50.
The Sentinel pays no big dividends, but puts its
earnin s back into the paper for the benefit of its
subscri ers.
The Pickens Sentinel is the only paper published :
at the county seat. of Pickens' county.
* It is the oldest paper in the county.j
Official paper of the :county.
* Largest paper in the county.
Prints more news than any other paper in the
*county.

the county.
*The Sentinel prints all the most important general,
war and state news, and makes a specialty of Pick
ens county news.
It is the people's p~aper.
* Every good citizen of Pickens county ought to
c subscribe for The Sentinel. The more subscribers
we have the better paper we can give you and the
more benefit we can beto the county.
Get your neighbor to subscribe.I
*You help us and we will hellp you. 1
