br, good-bye old year.
mr* You came in like a lamb old year
WS over the corpse of the fateful 13 and
V everybody hailed you with delight.
m You have gone out like a lion
drenched in the blood of your innocent
victims, and may the world
never see another of your kind.
>i ? There has .'been nothing normal
I' about you. You turned winter into
t: - spring and prolonged spring far into
summer.
By your erratic seasons you blasted
- the early hopes of the farmer, then
buoyed him with the prospect of
abundant crops to be made valueless
by your belligerency.
The death of perhaps three million
men, the flower of young manhood
in all Europe, must be charged to
your account; while incidentally
I you have brought starvation and
. mourning to millions of homes.
With so fair a beginning, you have
given the world the bloodiest chapiter.
in all its annals, at your closing.
You are dead, and while there are
millions weeping, none weep on account
of your departure. Your Jekyll
and Hyde characteristics have
. made you a hissing and byword and
all the nations of the earth have
s. turned their backs on you and are
looking with hope to your successor,
just emerging from his swadling
clothes. _______________
MORE ARMS TO HASTEN
V PEACE.
B Several bills have been introduced
A in Congress to prohibit the sale of
H arms and munitions of war by this
V v country to European belligerents.
m, Jn support of these bills it is said
J that if the United States would close
r its door on the English demand for
r war munitions, England would be
i powerless, and France and Russia
^ would be so crippled that they could
W not prolong the war for ninety days.
I In other words.the closing of the
A war here intimated would mean the
triumph of German arms, and Ger8
man supremacy.
X->^N'o one who has watched the course
? of events, since the beginning of this
f great struggle of nations can be lack|
ing in admiration for Germany as a
compact homogeneous fighting maChine.
Unquestionably she is a
V giant among nations. But the very
g fegl of her preparedness for war,
jF which is the result of nearly half a
i centary of training and providing,
ft argues .premeditation. Whatever
f the German motive in this war, she
cannot claim innocence o?a full share
? in bringing on the difficulty. This,
however, is purely a European question
with which the United States is
|y not concerned. What the United
testis concerned in is the earliest
possible conclusion of the war.
In the very nature of things, Germany
will be reduced. She is surrounded
on all sides by hostile countries,
and entirely shut off from the
coast. Frugal and patriotic as are
the few civilians left in her factories
and on her farms, they can do little
> more than maintain the civil popu
lation. So when German store
houses are exhausted, peace will soon
a be in sight. It is a cold blooded and
I more or less selfish view}to take ol
the war situation, to say that there is
no solution in the near future but
the defeat of Germany, but it is a
S^fact. If after two or three years of
^struggle Germany should tire out the
allies on land, even then in so far as
.the United States is concerned, the
struggle will have been only hall
oyer. The war would then center on
the high seas and its effects would be
v more disastrous to this country than
it can possibly be as now conducted.
While people of the United States
need not. waste any sympathy on
V ^England on account of her suffering
for the protection ofiier weaker allies,
notably the Belgians; if England
needs American guns and munitions
of war, let her pay the price,
? . . and let her have them by the ship
v. r load. To deny them is only to pro^
< long the struggle. Citizens of the

P" their rights in manufacturing and
delivering arms and munitions oi
war to any belligerent nation, so
Jong as they assume the risk in delivery.
Under the rules of neutrality,
this does not in any way involve
[ : , the government. It is true that
; President "Wilson stopped the ship;
ment of arms to either belligerent
faction in Mexico, but this was done
with the intent that with insufficient
. arms they might wear each other out
jp with less loss of life.
In Europe conditions are different,

9 She cannot prevail in the end, and
yet the war is prolonged by everj

the same right to buy arms from thii
country that the allies have. Thai

(Copyright, 1*14, by W. G. Chapman.)
"It won't do, Reuben. Father gays
you need taming down, and he's going
to get you a position in a town store
' and see if he can't repress some of
your surplus animal spirit, as ho calls
it"
"That so?" retorted stalwart, independent
Reuben Marsh. "Well, it won't
work."
"Then you'll be in the back of his
books when it comes to dividing up the
property."
1 "Who cares for his property?" burst
> out Reuben. "It's him I care for. He's
a jolly good father, only I'm too rough
and ready to suit him. That Isn't my
fault; I was born so."
For once in his life old Geoffrey
Marsh was sharp and severe with Reuben
when he called him to a secret interview
in the library.
"I've blocked out your course," he
said. "I expect you to follow it."
And Reuben was resolute, and to his
father's way of thinking almost insolent,
as he replied sturdily:
"It can't be done, dad. One week shut
up in a store would kill me. Let me
go to road-making or caring for the
horses, but don't shut me away from
nature."
/"You've heard me!" pronounced his
determined sire definitely. "I'm trying
to make something of you besides a
stable boy. It's obedience or?"
"The open road?" smiled Reuben Inquiringly.
"All right You've been a
good father, but I'm not of the silky,
high-toned class of Ray and Bertram.
I'll go it on my own hook, I reckon."
"Hell he back in a week," predicted
Mr. Marsh to his mourning
wife after Reuben had gone.
"I fear not," quavered the anxious
mother. "Reuben is too proud to
weaken on his own course. He'll
. thrive, for he is all go-aheadativeness,
but we shall miss him dreadfully."
Reuben was thinking of his mother
at Just that moment He had swung
away down the road, a stout stick over
his shoulder bearing & bundle on Its
end. j
Early the following morning Reuben
saw at a distance a scattered
group of farm buildings.
"I'm tired of tramping," he soliloquized.
"If there's a place for me
yonder IH Just camp down for a
spelL"
He came to the farm* a big one, an
hour later. It was to see three men.
two women and some children grouped
together about a pit There was discussion
^and commotion. All were excited
except a girl who stood interestedly
watching what was going on.
Reuben thought she was the fairest
creature he had ever met <
"Hello?a stranger!" suddenly ejao
ulated the old man of the group, observing
Reuben. <
"Yes," nodded the latter in a pleasant,
off-handed way. "What's going
on here, may I ask?"
"Just take a look and see," was the ;
reply, and Reuben pressed close to the
pit, a deep, boarded-up affair.
"Aha! he spoke out readily?
"wolves, four of them!"
"As you see," nodded the old former.
"The pests have got so thick we set
traps for 'em. Expected to catch an
occasional one, and here's four in a
bunch." '
The animals were big and fierce.
They leaped about wildly in their savage
rage, but could not scale the aides
1 of the smooth boarded pit
"And you want to get rid of them?"
i, Queried Reuben lightly.
"Got to?some way."
Reuben glanced about him till he
located a heavy wagon spoke near by.
He threw off his coat and grasped the
formidable cudgel firmly.
"Stand aside," he ordered brusquely.
The old farmer looked shocked.
His pretty daughter. Amy, caught
her breath with a quick thrilL Down
into the pit landed Reuben.
Swish?thud!?once, twice, thrice,
four times. His brawny arm swung
like a flail. Witb cracked skulls ,the
i savage beasts lay panting out tfceir
i last breath.
"Lower a rope and haul them up In
turn," ordered Reuben.
A hand of iron, that of the old farmer,
clamped his shoulder as he; In
turn was drawn to the surface.
"Toull do!" he cried admiringly,
1 and then as Reuben viewed the grateful
faces of those about him and felt jthe
sparking commendatory glance of the
. fair young girl, he realized that hqjiad
at last found an environment, where
his strength and courage ware ,appreciated.
"If yon should bo looking for at job
? now?" ventured the old farmer longingly,
and just then Reuben met again
. the witching-eyes of Amy.
"I am," he answered promptly.
That was the beginning of an ideal
. life for the wayfarer, who had fojund
his mission and right environment at
1 last
One year to a day after his leayu^g
the old home, Reuben returned to visit
( his old father and mother, his bride
. upon his arm.
( "Married, happy and settled, father,"
' he said cheerily, and Mr. Marsh cpuld
' not gainsay him, and kissed his blash!
ing daughter-in-law tenderly. "If,you
i had made me a lawyer as you planned,
t I would probably have whipped all my ,
rivals in court A dentist, I'd have

BIG BUSINESS COLLEGE, OF COLUMBIA,
MAKES SPECIAL ANJTOUNCEMENT
TO PATBONS 1.

Liberal Offer to Young People For
1916.
In keeping with the spirit of times,
the management of Draughon's Practical
Business College of Columbia, S.
C., (one o fthe chain of big Draughon
Colleges located throughout the
Southern and Western States,) announces
four (4) money saving plana
for 1914, to young men ( and young
women planning to enter College in
January..
While the majority of small busiress
colleges are no longer able to
accept cotton at ten cents per pound
in payment for tuition the 'Big
Draughon College of Columbia is continuing
.to offer this ten cents cojiton
nlnn and ft Inn annnunces that, notes
payable one year (or longer) from
date, will be accepted In payment* for
scholarships, while this temporary
period of business depression continues.
In fact, this institution is extending
to its patrons throughout the
State the most liberal terms and con*
dition8 with reference to manner of
making tuition payments.
Following are the four (4) plans 6f
enrollment offered: (
1* Cotton Plan?^Cotton will be accepted
(strict middling) in payment
for scholarships and ten cents per
pound will be allowed for it. One 500.pound
bale will pay for a $50 complete
scholarship in the Bookkeeping
and Banking department of Draqghon's
College or a complete scholarship
in the Shorthand and Typewriting
department Two such bales
will be accepted for;a Combined
Scholarship of both bookkeeping,
Shorthand and auxiliary studies, t
8. Cash Plan?Where the student
enrolling pays cash for scholarship, a
"War Discount" of $10.00 will be
allowed and Railroad fare of the
student to Columbia will be paid by
the College. This is equal in every
way, from an economical standpoint,
to the cotton plan offered above, and
will only remain in force for such a
limited time as in the opinion of the
College management present existing
conditions may justify.
3. Note Plan?If the student wishes
to give a note, payable a year (or
longer) from date, for the full price
of the scholarship, allowing sufficient
time for the student to complete the
onoant a nnaWnn and earn the
l?V/UJI OV) uwvyv M |/xw< ? _
money with which to pay the note before
it falls due/ the regular catalogue
price is charged for each scholarship,
which is a few dollars higher than
the cash price. Where 30, 60, or 90
day notes are given, no difference in
price is charged. Many students enter
Draughon's College each year under
this note plan, and complete their
course, accept positions and eran the
money to pay their notes before they
fall due. If you are interested in this
plan, write for special note plan
blank which gives full information.
