The appeal should be part'cu?arl/ strong to tho school girls and bo. s of this Stale, because Mr. Wilson spent a purl of bis school days in South Car olina. lt ls HOI tho amount contrib uted which collins .-.ii inuch as tho number of individu?is who show 1 - teres) by giving evon sm;:ll amounis. If tho nverago contribution from Ibo school children of tho Stale were us mueh as ton cents, their obligation \ ould be fully met. ll is proposed to raise one million dollars as a permanent foundation. With the income from this foumla-j lion awards will bo made io Individ-j Hals and groups who have rendered distinguished service "to Democracy, public welfare, liberal thought, or peuce through justice." i ! o vernor Cooper is the chairman ol (lie foundation in South Carolina, and writes nie thus in regard to it: "lt seems to me the purpose of this foundation ought to appeal to very person who believes in peace through Justice, My this means it is hoped thal wo may keep con stantly before iii" American pub lic thc ideals for which Mr. Wilson < stood during tho greatest, cris i. of i (he world's history. !t giv? s an opporl uniiy to every individa.il to contribute some amount, ami to thereby become a charier member of this foundation." The stale Supcrintendon! of Billi onth u, J. E. Swearingon, to whom the school system of South Carolina is everlastingly Indebted, sends this message: "Tho Woodrow Wilson Founda tion is worthy of the cordial sup port am) co-operation of all South erners and Southern Democrats. Public school teachers and pupils can very properly take an active Interest in the campaign for funds. South Carolina cannot afford to omi! her part of '-he work or her contribution to Its success." Bach school should organize a committee to collect money and send | it, together with tho names of Ibo! subscribers, to Gen. Wilie Jones, Palmetto National Hank Building, Columbia, S. C. (?en.

I cannot address an Individual let ter lo each school in South Carolina. .1 trusi thal this published appeal will bo sufficient. I nm sure that this effort to honor a man so well known in South Carolina, and so WOll loved, needs only to be men tioned to get a prompt and generous response. I hope that, every school teacher who reads this notice will tako tho initiative in organizing the work and carrying it lo successful completion within the n <xt ten days.

Chicago, March 30.--Josefa and Ro3u Blnzok, tho "Siamese Twins,"' died at a hospital hero this morning. Josepfa's death occurred first and was followed in a few seconds hy the death of hor sister. Physicians had declared carly in the night that In t'.io event of the death of ono of tho sisters tho other would die quickly, as their brother, Frank Blnzek, had refused to permit an operation which would sever their bodies. The twins had boen In tho hospital ten days. Josefa was ill with yellow jaundice, and that was followed by pneumonia. Shortly before her death Rosa was alllicted with bronchitis. Preparations had been made for the severing operation, and tho physi cians wore ready to make ever)' ef fort to save the life of at least ono of the women. Hope of saving the life of Josefa was abandoned at midnight, accord ing to Dr. H. H. Breakstone, chief of the surgical staff at the hospital. "I tried to get the consent of tho brother to operate to save the Ufa of Rosa, bul be refused to give his per mission." added the physician. Dr. Breakstone explained that a delicate operation would have been neces sary. Before their dcuh he.had ex pressed tho opinion that the physio logical a Ul ll i ty of lh>; twins was so vital that it one should die the other might also succomb before the band of flesh and bone that joined them could be severed. Although the twins possessed sep arate respiratory and cardiac sys tems, Dr. Breukston explained that ! i they bad only one s, i of secondary digestivo ami procreative organs Tho operation, ho said, would have! i<ecessilatod tho building up of al part of tho digestive and oilier essen tial organs to save the lifo of one twin. Rosa was once married, her name being Rosa Blazek Dvorak. She ls j survived hy a normal 1 I -year-old boy. Uer husband was a captain in the German army and was killed in action in 1017. She was married fif teen years ago. Josefa never mar ried. The little son, Franz, has been at the bedside of bis mother, who, j until within the last few hours, was less critically 111 than Josefa. The twins wore tho second offspring of a normal parentage In Czecho-Slo vakia 42 years ago. ' There were four other children, all normal, and all still living. The falber is also said to be alive, his ago being Sf> years, i The mother died a year ago at the j ago of 65 years. Thu twins reached the United .Slates in February. 1U21, and start ed on a show (our. They were born ll years ago In Prague, Czecho Slovakia. For (he I last twenty years they have toured \ the theatres of Europe. Both were moderately wealthy, good looking and well educated. Each twin was fully developed and free from deformity, save for tho narrow flesh strip that joined them at tho hip. They enjoyed theatres, dinner par ties and other amusements just ai normal people do; but where one wont tho other had to go also. When they differed in taste they settled the matter hy the flip of a coln. Tlic two had gout to leading sur geons on both continents, hut al ways had been h>.iv ad against, an operation to separato them. Doctors told them that such an operation un doubtedly would result in the death of at least one of them. Twins of this kind are called Si amese twins because of the famous case of Fag and Chang, Chinese,who were born in Siam with their bodlc'j Joined. They were born In 1811 and died in 1874. "Many Siamese twins have been born, but they seldom live to reach maturity," said one of thc hospita! physicians treating Josefa. During a tour of the world the twins acquired considerable weall h. They died without making a will, al though their attorney. J. E. Triska, visited at the hospital several times in tho hope that they would be in condition to dictate tho document. As tho women grew weaker lau I night physicians pleaded with the brother to permit an operation, tho hospital attendants stated. He was the only adult relative capable under (lie Illinois law of giving lils con son t. "No," the brother was quoted as having said. "No not even if Rosa li vi's for hours after Josefa's death. There shall be no operation." Dr. J. Otragovok, personal phys! chin Of Ibo twins, appealed to th brother without success. Their ftl tornoy was asked IO intervene, but he declined IO assume the responsl bility. Two hours past midnight Dr Breakstone said there was no need oi prolonging the argument with th* brother. "It is useless," ho said. "Tho con-1 ditlon ot ouch ls now tho same-tho ; condition that forooasts certain death. An operation now would do , no good.1' During tho illness of tho twins, j physicians said, tho women reacted differently to tito same medicine, al though their Illness recently had been tho same. > | Other Siamese Twins. t Medical records recalled by physi cians who have been Interested In j tho case disclose a number of so- , called Siamese twins. Tho original Siamese twins. Eng and Chang, lived to tho age of G I years. They mar- j ried sisters and Chang had six chil-, dren and Eng live, all of them nor--' mal. Eng died Bret and a .surgeon separated them. Chang died soon I afterwards. Twins that have attracted world wide fame include tho Hindu sisters, who were joined faco to face, tho connection being at the Vmest; tho Newport Twins, somewhat similar to ! Hie Hindu twins; tho Orlssa'slsters, Rudd lea and Doddicn, joined sile lo side: tho Hlddenden maids, connect ed shoulder to shoulder, with only ' two arms; tho Hungarian sisters, ? Helen and Judith, joined back lol back ai tho lower segment ol' thc spine, and the North Carolina sis-; tors, Millie and Christine, joined as were the Hungarian sistors; and the Bohemian twins. Roselia and Josefa, connected in tho same manner as wore the two sisters who have just j died. Their connection was through the pelvis, the right hip of one and '. Hie left of the other being fused to-, gelber. ?I* "I* 'I- .I? 4? *i- .!? ?I? -h 4? ?I? 4? ?J. HONOR ROI,HS. ?J. * * * * * * * * * * * * ?fr * Walhalla High School.
