Still hoping that war with Germany will be avoided, officials and Senators declared that' the issue rests entirely with Germany." Formal announcement of fhegovern ment’s policy was given in.the follow ing “announcement issued from the White House: l The following statement was issued : i •‘Secretary T umulty stated in connec Lion with—the—Preside nt J r~cfflt~f fff An extra session of Congress that the President is convinced that he has the power to arm American merchant ships and he is free to exercisX*" it ‘ at once. But ?o guch necessary legislation is pressing for consideration that he is convinced that it is for lhe_best intcr- eits # of the country to have an early tension of. the Sixfy-ttfth Congress, whose supp jrt tie will also need in all matters colatteral to the defense of our merchant marine. - ‘‘The names of the ahips which will be armed will not hi made public by the government and are not expeettd li» be published in the newspapers. The opinions of Field Day art varied and sundry. -Those who \vo,uld ques tion the wisdom of Field Day with its many events are the same folk who can not recognize the educational value of play. And yet ilie same people, will give credence to the trite mtxim—/All work and no play makes .lack a dull joy.” The teacher, who is ready to suggest new games, play ,with the children, displace games which are of small value, and prevent, quarreling, will so oh realize that'she becomes ac quainted with and understands the lildren as she never has .before; and that discipline is a much easier prob lem in the 6ehool room. A few teachers are unconcerned about our meet scheduled for March 30th. a few trustees are -indifferent. Recently, 1 asked a school trustee if s achool would attend an4 participate in Field Day events. He replied thait he of course would attend but he did not think Jus school would come. In explaining, he gave many exeusdflv no reasons. I heard of another trustee who would come o.er to’heaf Governor Manning, but gave many EXCUSES for HIB,school’s absence. Trying to have a Field Day without the school children, is as absurd as supporting a school without children. I sincerely Hampton, March H».— One of the must disastrous tire* in thr history of the town occurred in Varnvilfe at an hour, tiiis •morning, when practically all the business houses on both -ides of Main street were destoyed, entailing a estimated loss oFTietween sixty and severity--live thousand dollars', partly covered by insuraude.; ; ^ The lire originated in-a lot separating the stores of C. W. Taylor and \V. < >. Guess". A number uf banana cartons and a quantity of excelsior had been piled up on this vacant Jot, and it is suppose*! that someone pa>?in_' by care lessly threw a lighted cigarette on this pile of refuse, igniting it. TTie tire was discovered by tin- night watchman shortly after midnight, and it had then reached the store of C. W_ Taylor. This being a wooden building -flames spread rapidly, destroying the’ adjoining store, that of W. G. Gooding, in short order, and spreading thence in lioth directions; crossing the street and burning the large store of L. R. Dowling X' Hons. Then- the Tire swept down botli streets at the same tune. Only by. heroic effort* were the Charleston and Western Carolina Rail way station, th^ 'residence of W. B. Dowling EMid the only two store? on the entire street left standing, saved.
