Military Training.
j A young man who has been away ,
V in the army came home a few days
v, ago on a visit. When he left home
six months ago he was soft and flabby
and practically worthless, physically
and morally. Today he is browned
and tanned, his eye is clear and his
step is springy; he is stout and upstanding
and very much of a man.
His military training has done
wonders for him. He is a totally different
man from what he was six
months ago. He has a totally different
viewnoint of lift' from whnf
he had then, and he has a different
viewpoint from other young men of
his age who have not been in the
army.
His friends have seen al" this, and
they are beginning to see and understand
what military training in the
open air does for a man. And they
are pleased with it.
After this war ends we are going
to have universal military service in
this country. We may never need
another big army, hut we need a better
class of young men. The people
will insist that every young man have
a period of military training, for his
own good quite as much as for the
good of the country.?Anderson Mail.
Be Immune From Colds.
It is easier to avoid a cold or to
cure it when it first starts?than it is
to cure one that has become obstinate.
Avoid complications that may result
from a neglected cold by using Lawson's
La (Jrippe Capsules. They will
quickly overcome congestion and stop
the feverish condition which usually
accompanies a cold. They are pleasant
to take and are in no way harmful.

Wheat Campaign.
To all Apents:
Dear Sir:
I have been scanninp your reports
Tor the last two weeks with a preat
deal of interest, especially for the
purpose of pettinp such information
from them as you have piven concerninp
the seedinp of prains, especially
wheat, in your respective counties.
I have been preatly disappointed in
the information I have obtained. Up
to this time, little prain, and especially
wheat, has been seeded. There
is little time left if we expect to obtain
a profitable crop at the next harvest.
Surely our people have not forpotten
the call of our povernment for
the sccdir.p or an increased acreape
in wheat to the amount of 27 per cent
over last year. Last year's acreape
in this State was 225,000 acres. In
order to meet the demands of the povernment
we should seed 2.">0,000
acres. This is absolutely necessary
if we are to do our part in the furnishinp
of the bread supply for outarmies
and the armies of our nil;.?<=?
We are asking our younp: moh to
defend our honor and our liberty, if
need be by giving their lives. !f they
are willing to die for us, surely our
people should be willing to live for
them.
Please have this letter published in
all the papers and brinj; every in'lueiice
to bear, that we may meet the
saered demands of our government.
Yours very truly,
W. W. Long,
Director.

Write to the Soldiers. J
A member of The Times force had *^.
a letter from a soldier in one of the .
camps in South Carolina and it had
a pathetic ring. He said: "If the folk ?
back home only knew how we long ,
for news?just anything that the home
people are doing, they would write
us every day. The little hit of gossip
going around or the next couple to ^
get married or where the neighbors ^
uuvc moved, wouui cneer us up and
bring1 a touch of home to our tents."
We pass this on and if you have
relatives or friends in the camps, droo c'
u
them a line every now and then and ^
cheer the fellows up. They are not
grumbling at their lot and would not ?
have it otherwise, hut we who are 11
at home can make it less tiresome for
them by writing oftener to them. |

Must, say tl. weather was ideal for r

every day. School day the attendance r
was real large and everybody seemed /
to enjoy the fair and all the exhibits t
were fine. The Monarch booth seemed
to attract lots of attention. The flow- r
ers that were on exhibit certainly c
were beautiful. We agree with our c
editor in the idea that, the fair chr?nl?l 1

think it could he fixed up better and \

Constantly Growing Worse
<J
(By Associated Press) =
?Berne, October 30.? (Correspond
nee)?There has iust arrived here I
rom Germany a naturalized Amerian
who has lived in Germany
hroughout the war, worked in Gerlan
seaport cities, passing for or benpr
considered a German subject,
tingling not only with the common
eople, but having occasional access
o the councils of the high.
In his opinion Germany is suflfertg
acutely now and dissatisfaction
nd worse reign in certain strata of
er army and navy. Recent mutinous
prising have had to be sternly repressed
and the mutineers shot,
'houghtful Germany, he thinks, comprising
men of the Ballin type, is deserateh^anxious
for peace and secrety
anxious to end the war before
Lmerica has been utterly alienated.
This man left Germany early in
)ctober .because he had reason to fear
hat he was going to be impressed
or military service. The German gov
i iimeni, iui(i reiuseu 10 recognize mo
alidity of his American naturalizaion
since he f::ile<I to comply with
he law existing in 11)1.1 and did not
eek the consent of the German govrnment
to his step. To get out ho
lad had to induce the Spanish embasy
to bring pressure to boar on the
lerman government. On reaching
Switzerland one of his first steps was
o seek the Associated Press correpondent,
to whom he first proved satsfactorily
his American citizenship,
hen volunteered such information as
to possessed about Germany as the
luty of a patriotic American citizen.
Strangely enough, at the very monent
he was telling his story with
letails about mutinies in the German
lavy, the German minister of marine,
Admiral von Capelle, was announcing
he naval mutinies to the Iteichstae.
"The economic situation in (lerma- ly,"
he says, "is far worse than any- g
me on the outside realizes, is so critical
that I look for a break, a eolapse,
next spring or late in the wilier.
Nor are the good crops that one
lears about every once in so often I
roing to change the situation mate- I
ialy.
The finest way we know of to add
o you collection of enemies is to butt
n when other folks are holding a
onversation. '
