P the is unmindful of the fact that the whole world stood aghast at the severity of a t,.|v the German demands. Whatever may tl era I be required of Germany now. it will tl '' x hardly be more burdensome than the h i>li s v ...... exactions which were then imposed up ive on France. ail- P It has Just come out that for several ? t'l?, months, all unknown to the world at s I to large the Americans have had in use P be an aerial telephone system by which tl airplanes were in constant conversa- il ljon tional communication with the ground in- and with each other. In spite of the ^ noise of propellers and other noises the 81 en- P?0P'? in the airplanes could hear and 0 ni- say what they pleased in whatever di- v vel. rection. The Germans had a strong s suspicion of the new invention; but not that was all. This information?the the information that the Germans were suspicious?came out through the cap- P ans turo 0f an ori{er to their airmen to P u...i bring down for examination one of the l< .. tod enemy planes fitted with means of tel- v rer- ,phone communication. It does not 1 appear, however, that the new inven- n lvil tion had fallen into the hands of the " in- (lermans previous to the armistice. c< the a o 'at' "ke that idea suggested by Su- *' idi- pcrintendent of Education fan-oil for 1'V the erection of a memorial to the sol- a t>(}< { Ht,. diets in the form of an administration oi?- building for public education. We p ion. agree with Mr- farrull that there is no c' Val other form of memorial that will con- a ill' fer greater honor and credit on either A on- the people or the soldiers. There is no l|V' other form of memorial or public in- al 'n* vestment, for that matter, that is cal- ri ons culatcd to contribute more to the pre*>- tc ent and future welfare of our people. Ci Of course the raising of $25,000 or $50- u 0t ooo is no easy matter: but it can be done if our people approve the ideu J is and set out to do it. The legislative Cf delegation would be fully warranted in in to making an appropriation to cover the ** it's entire expense: but rather than this ^ ign w would prefer an appropriation of a to part of the necessary money to be T ,.r. raised by taxation, and the balance to p< e< tes be supplied by private subscription. ^ But however it is done this idea ought (1< ,m, to be earned out and there ought to be ^ in no unnecessary delay about it. , n - . m ? nt Wh'l? w? have no exact information _ re- on the subject, individuals who are in Ci \r- the best position to know, bankers, Ai trchants and others, advise us that a rule farmers owe but little money the merchants, fertilizer people, ,nks. etc. Most of the farmers have ttled their obligations, and most of ch cotton as they now hold, which is p inconsiderable amount, is comparably free. If this is true it is an escially fortunate circumstance, more pecially in view of the general situa<n. All the speculative world sees as has never seen before, that tremen>us prices will rule in the case of this ar's cotton crop. There are those ho for obvious reason, are manufacring all kinds of arguments to the >ntrary. even though they do not be(ve a word of what they are saying, o matter what the bears may do in e manipulation of the future market, o actual cotton is eventually going to 11 at a high price, and the farmers ho hold are going to get that price, tie farmers who sell at present prices e going to make a present to the imblers of the difference between the esent prices and the prices that are ilng to prevail after a while- Of lurse there are no doubt those, farm's and others, who are now carrying itton on borrowed money, and they ay be squeezed out; but even with lat cotton is going to bring good rices before the next crop. We are table to conceive of anything that tuld stop tne ultimate advance except lother war that would put a stop to -eun transportation. WIhi Distresses the Cotton? Senator Ed Smith gave It out in Coinbla last Tuesday night that he had formation to the effect that upon the gning of the armistice Liverpool or?red the sale of 600,000 hales of fuires on the New York exchange at 10 nta a pound less than cotton was ringing in October when there apeaml to be no reasonable hope of an trly export demand. If they grew cotton in England, or reii if they hud a big surplus over ieri\ ns they had in 1004, when the iverpool bears shipped back to Xew ork thousands of bales of cotton that ley had already brought* over in an Tort to break down the strong niaret that lunl been so ably built up by iayne and Brown, we would not feel ke we had reasonable complaint gainst this most recent slap at the irmers of the south. But they do not raise any cotton in >.?l..n,l ?v.?l ma? Anlt* thot thoir locks right now are at the lowest ebb tat has ever been known In the his>ry of the trade, certainly since the ivil war. <?no-third of all the cotton Itinners of the world are clustered round Manchester. In an area not irger than York county, ahd these pindles alone are hungry for not leas tan three and a half million bales of mericun cotton before next June. For piverpool to be selling cotton under unditions like that is good excuse for ulignation and that is what we feel. Including this one, there has been (tree short crops of cotton in succeslon. The Central powers, just defeatd by the Americans, have had no cotjn for commercial purposes in Hftyivo months. Because they have had o opportunity to spend it elsewhere, Hey have more gold than all the balnro of Kurope conhined. Not only Hat they have a plentiful supply of otash which we need as badly as they eed our cotton. To clothe their peole they would gladly take all the coton we have within the next twelve tonths at 4t) or 50 cents a pound, and iere is this war industries board Blowing Kngland. which has no cotton, or anything else that we need very adly, to rehabilitate herself at the excuse of southern farmers by raiding ur cotton market. It was John L- McLaurin who first might the people of South Carolina hat cotton is a matter of world finnee. and who in his state warehouse ysleni laid down the principle upon rhich this commodity should be hauled for the benefit of those who prouce it. Those who are now unable to ee the correctness of Mr. McLaurin's cachings along this line are dull ineed, and those who fail to appreciate ,-hat would have happened had he een supported as he deserved to be. re still duller. With the warehouse ? mviii r.xit'iHRu u> vi nit: ouuiu, u hould have been, supported by state hsuranee and the right kind of u unking system, Liverpool might go head and sell her 600.000 or 600,000,00 bales of unspinnaMe futures withut ever feuzing the 40 or JO cents a ound that cotton ought to be worth. But there is something bad wrong bout this shorty sales business at this 1 me. As we see it right now, the ships hat bring the soldier?: back ought to ave plenty of room on their return oynges for all the cotton we are wlllhg to spare to Europe at whatever rice we want to ask, and if the people f Europe have to pav as much for heetings and shirtings as we have to ay here at home, 50 cents a pound for he man who raised the cotton is not t all exorbitant. Senator Smith seems to think that Ir. Brand and Mr. Baruch know omothing about this Liverpool 600,00-bale short sale order. Of course e are not in a position to know what enator Smith knows; but we do know hat, as a short sale artist Mr. Baruch as quite a reputation. He was comlonl.v credited with having created thej anic that followed the president's eaee note, and it was strongly intima?d at the time that he did it on adancc information. And whether there i any connection or not, it is a relarkably significant coincidence that ie present slump in the cotton market ommenced immediately after he gave ut his recent interview on price fl* ?*> We are not in a position to make ny charges. Wc have no information i the rirst place, and if we had actual roof we could be squelched before the tiarges could get anywhere. But Sentor Smith is in a position to talk ithout any danger of being squelched. Iso he is in a position to bring about n investigation, and in the interest of ght and Justice as well as of the cot>n producers of the south, wo sin?rely hope he will do it. regardless of pon whom may fall the blame?

Calotabs Insists that Calotabs Is the safest, most efficient and simplest form in which to take calomel for colds, influenza, etc. Now since llie government fyi.s control of the telephone .service, we think it would he just and proper to give the switchboard operators fair pay along with the other workers. According to our view the switchboard work calls for a high order of Intelligence and involves very great responsibility. The pay should be in keeping with both considerations. An aged darkey went into the Yorkvine postoftice Wednesday to buy some thrift stamps to stick on the war savj ings cards for which he had subscribed. As the stamps were being delivered he began to ask questions, and one of them was: "How long do I have to keep them?" "They are due and payable January 1. 1923." replied the clerk. "I specs I'll be in heaven, by then." the old darkey observed. York county's apportionment of the war work fund was $41,250, and she has raised it. It makes a splendid showing under the circumstances. Aft ? Very little cotton moving during the past few days and consequently business, though quiet, is not as good as it would have been otherwise. ? Advices have been received by the Red Cross that no further surreal dressings will be needed. The army has on hand a surplus. ? Rev. J. E. Mahaffey leaves next week for conference at Chester, and If the bishop does not send him back er the signing- of the armistice it was difficult for anybody to see where there was need for a sum that had been estimated on a basis of a larger army and a long continuance of the war. This made the work of the canvassers, in some cases <iuite arduous. The only reason they could give for collecting the full amount was that Dr. Mott and the directors higher up. said it was necessary. But the canvass was conr tinued and our splendid people came down with the money. It was a splendid exhibition of the broad, generous spirit of our splendid people. THIRD WEEK JURORS.

All of his outward trips have been made under convoy and his return trips have been made alone. WITHIN THE TOWN. here It will not be because a great t many people of. the town and country surrounding don't think he ought to do so. ? Mrs. Rebecca Stewart of Yorkvllle. received a telegram last night advising her that it has been officially reported that her son, Meach Stewart, of the llSth Infantry (Col. Spratt's regiment). was killed in action on October 8th. ? The sales of the Moore-Kerr properties by the Atlantic Coast Realty company aggregated about $11,000. which included only a part of the property advertised. J. S- Brice bought three tracts of the Moore property, two of twenty acres each and one of twenty-three acres. The two 20-acre tracts were bid off at $100 per acre, and the 23-acre tract at $145. P. W. Love bought nineteen acres of the Moore tract at $85, and J. E. Johnson bought eighteen acres of the Kerr tract at $125. Because the prices that were be ing realized were not sansiaciurj iu the owners, the balance of the property was withdrawn. , ? Miss Mamie McConnell. trained nurse, lost a valuable Red Cross' pin during her work in the recent influenza epidemic. The pin was one that may be worn only by professional nurses, and by them only when they are engaged in actual Red Cross work, as was Miss McConnell during the epidemic. This paragraph is be'ng printed for the information of the local public, in order that it may understand the nature of the loss and be on the lookout for the pin in the possession of some unauthorized person. ? Mrs. R. M. Bratton, president of the local Red Cross, said yesterday that up to that time the central branch of the chapter had received only about twenty applications for cartons in which to send Christmas presents to the hovs in France. Altogether there had been more than a hundred applications for cartons; but only about twenty of these cartons had actually been taken out. The cartons are mailable up to November SO. tomorrow week. Cartons have been divided among the various branches of the chapter, but up to this time no reports have been received. ? Mrs. J. L Williams of Yorkville. received a telegram from the adjutant general's office at Washington last Monday night announcing that her son. Sergeant Hanson Williams, had died in a French hospital on June 23. of broncho-pneumonia. While the news is most distressing. Mrs. Williams is still hopeful because of the fact that she has a letter from her son written from a French hospital on October 1, and advising her that although he had been gassed about two weeks before, he was then getting along very nicely and he expected to write again in a I few days. Mrs. Williams is sure that there is some mistake; but is naturally , I very fearful that the message may | (have been intended to read October 23, , Wnstcad of June 23. Ganson is 25 yeurs | fit age.

Yes. we newspaper people like a word of commendation occasionally, Especially if we happen to do anything to merit such a word. Who is it that floes not get satisfaction out of such a Word of appreciation? There may be such a one; but if there is. we wonder why he has been taking all his trouble to please. Of course, if it has been altogether on uccount of himself, we are not expecting anything from him. To uch a selfish cuss as that it would not make any difference what the public thought, and really it would not matter. But most people who strive to pie ase appreciate a hint of the fact When they approach in the neighborhood of success. We do not deny being very human, and for that, among pther reasons, we believe that there are jWy readers of the Enquirer who will get almost as much pleasure out of the following letter as we get ourselves: Gastonia, X. C., November 19. 1918. L. M. Grist's Sons, Publishers Yorkvllle Enquirer. Gentlemen: I want to avail myself of the privilege of expressing to you the pleasure and satisfaction 1 get out of being a subscriber to The Yorkville EnquirerI have had this in mind for a long time, and mgre especially during the past twelve months, the impulse has been bobbing up twice a week after the perusal of the current issue of your paper; but being a very busy man, because of first one matter or circumstance or another, I have not previously yielded. 1 have Just finished reading practically every line in your issue of November 19. and although my time is probably as fully occupied with ordinary business pressure as it has ever been. I am letting loose long enough to tell you that whether considered as a newspaper or magazine The Yorkville enquirer is one of the most entertaining and helpful periodicals that comes into my home. Your editorial page Is up to date in every respect, enlightening and informing on the different subjects that concern the world along all lines in this wonderful era of new and remarkable endeavor. I have looked all over the current issue in search of an item that would not seem to contribute to the .profitable enjoyment of an hour or two of wholesome literature and I have failed to find it I do not want to be understood as assuming to be an authority on the matters about which I am writing: but as I have said. I um merely trying to do myself the Justice of telling you about the pleasure and satisfaction I derive from the privilege of being on your mailing list. Yours truly, R. B. Babbington. YORK COUNTY MEMORIAL. Superintendent of Education John E. Carroll is in full sympathy with the idea of a monument to the troops who have gone from York county to the world war: but he does not think that a shaft of stone or a statue of bronze is the proper form of such a monument. He has the idea that a much more fitting monument for the heroes of York county would be a splendid administration building for educational work for the present and future generations of York county children. "What I would like to see in the shape of a monument to the soldiers of York county, and indeed to this whole war generation In York county," said Mr. Carroll, "would be a handsome building to be located at the county seat and to cost anywhere from *9.vooo to S50.000. I really don't care how much so it would be creditable to this splendid county and its splendid people, with the understanding that its primary object is a home for past and present, as well as future military records, and a present and future home for the administration of educational affairs. "Yes, there is need for such a building. While it would serve as a memorial, it would not be altogether ornamental. There would be in it, first an auditorium suitable for teachers, trustees and other educational workers? an auditorium in which educational conventions of whatever nature could be held. Then there could be offices ' for the administrative officials in different departments of educational work?an office for the superintendent l of education, an office for the farm demonstration workers, and an office for the home demonstration and girls' club work and if need be other offices to accommodate the administrations of 1 other departments that will be needed < when our activities along educational t lines begin to develop to something f like what they ought to be. < "No. I have not forgotten the primary ' purpose of a memorial. This war has i shown us in a way that we have never 1 realized before, the real purpose of our 1 existence, the Importance of being ready and willing to make the supreme t sacrifice whenever there comes the su- 1 preme demand. I glory in the heroism ' of those brave boys who have gone to * the front at the call of their country? 1 those who have come before the ex- * emptlon boards no leas than those who t have gone to France. When it comes t o those who have paid the supreme >rlce on the battlefield, or in the camps or that matter, we must all bow our leads in reverence- But I am not unnindfui ct the fact that there are others besia^ys those who have enlisted vho are entitled to honor and respect. There are the mothers and the fathers if this generation who not only gave ip their boys: but who from morning ill night, month in and month out put orth every- effort to help their country tnd their sons in the mighty task that eemed to be. Then there are the rives of the soldiers, and yes. all the rirls. the sisters and sweethearts and he little boys too. each and every one las been a fighter and each and every mi' has done wl>?t he or she could. This whole generation has measured j ip. li s a war ^neniuuu, mm n an. jocly trit-s to dispute the fact. I will trove it by the boys who went across hat they could not have done what hey did do over there except for what heir fathers and mothers, sisters and mothers, cousins and aunts did over lerc. "So for this administration building et us have a record room?a fireproof fault?and in that vault let us have Irst. a record of every young man who inswered the first call for enrollment ?d. The records of every young man ,vho subsequently enrolled. 3d A compete transcript of all the records of he exemption board. 4th. The rec>rd of all the boys who went to camp, ith. The record of what became of he boys after they left, whether they net all the physical requirements, and vhat service they performed, in camp ind abroad, whether they participated n actual battle, were wounded or came hrough unscathed. loet all these things ;o into this fireproof vault, and along vith them the bits of prec'ous history hat will become the pride and the rlory of future generations. "Also in this same vault we can have i place for all obtainable records of what our fathers did in the war of the Re volution, the war of 1812. the Mexican war. the Civil war. and the Spansh-American war. There can be no nore fitting place for such r< cords and he county can confer no greater hon>r on itself than by providing such a slace. "In my Judgment. America has done what she has done in this great war localise of the educational advantages her people have previously enloyed. ind an administration budding for edic.utional development will have its inluence in helping York county to measure up to everv additional roiponslbllitv against the day when there s heard the next supreme call, whether it be another call to arms or nnoth r cnll to higher duty." LOCAL LACONICS Influenza Figures. Dr. W. f*. Adams of the I'niUd States fuiblie health service, estimates on a hasls of actual reports and other information. that up to November 15. there had been 87.415 cases of influenza in south Carolina. York county's pro nnruon was s.n.ti cases. Wounded In France. Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Ashe of Bullock's r'rivk. have a letter from their son. M. W. Ashe, of Company E. llSth Infantry, advising them that he is in a Britsh hospital recovering from a rllle bullet wound, sustained in a fight with the fjcrmans in France on October 8. Sniyor Case Settled. The case of Mrs. Mary (*. Smyer igainst the Southern railway. has been nettled by an agreement on the part of the railroad company to pay to the plaintiff the sum of $12..100. This suit grew out of the killing of Engineer Robert Sniyer of the O. & N'.-W. railroad in the railroad yards at Chester on November 2 of hist year. Liberal SiitixrlptioiisThe Rock Hill Herald gives the following school district subscriptions in the eastern district to the war work fund as of Tuesday, and notes that Catawba.

Hart of Yorkville, has a letter from her son, Chaplain Omci Hart, in r ranee, in which leiter Chaplain Hurt speaks of having just buried a young souuer by the name ot W'. W. Alicia of VtcKsburg, Miss. Since then Mr. R. C. Allein of Yorkville, has received his Vicksburg paper, giving an account of ?V. \V. Allein's death. The young soldier, it appears, was a nephew of Mr. R. C. Aliein. The War Work Apportionments. Both the eastern and western districts have gone over their apportionments in the war work drive. A he apportionment ol tiie eastern district was ?j5,ouo, and the amount raised up to i'uesduy was $32,300, including between $7,000 and $8,000 trom Win* throp college. The apportionment of the western district was $16,250, and Ho nmniint r;iiai?rl U'na in ? nf that figure. l-'i-uit 1'it and Nutshell Campaign. Tlie Knquirer has a letter from W. M. Jackson, Kirst Lieutenant, uus Division, Chemical VVartare Service, advising that the fruit pit and nutshell campaign is off. The gas division has some more masks to unish; but the material is in sight. Collectors are advised to discontinue shipping except in car lots now ready.

A portion of Rural Route Xo. 5, out of Yorkville, was discohtinued a few weeks ago because a postal inspector condemned the road as impossible. Mince then the road has been workd upon and Road Commissioner Black has made affidavit that this former piece of bad road is now in as good condition as is the balance of the route. Commissioner Black's affidavit is to go forthwith to Congressman Stevenson, who will at once present the case to the postoffice department amj ask that the service over the discontinued piece of road be resumed. ]>o?ier Made Good. Rock Hill Herald: In discussing the battles in which the York county men engaged in France, Col. T- B. Spratt informed citizens here that Lieut J. C. Dozier of the Fort Mill company has been cited for bravery in action. In the fight in which Captain S- ff. Parks of the company, was wounded, Lieut. Dozier was the second in command and took charge of the company. He continued in action after being wounded, and it is report^ that he accounted for eleven Germ :uiV*tBfore being carried off the field. Dozier's friends in Rock Hill, his home town, are much gratified to learn of his bravery and faithful discharge of his duty. Influenza at Winthrop. Although it has been published that >V Illinium CUIlCfiC new nvvp.uB iiocu free of influenza by means of a quarantine against the outside world, from information obtained from various students, it appears that the published report was not correct. The quarantine did not serve to prevent a large number of casfes. Information reached The Enquirer,several weeks ago that the infirmary was full of girls with influenza?bad colds it was called?and' another story was that one of the dormitories was being used as a hospital. The Enquirer got it direct a few days ago that there were as many as 125 lases under treatment at one time; but the student from whom the information came was unable to give official figures. Progress of War Work campaign. ?Officials of the United States War Work Campaign announced Wcdnes1ay that the latest national total for I the drive for $170,500,000. which closes it midnight tonight was $158,565,058, ir $11,93J.940 1 ss than the sum sought. They added, however, that this report was incomplete and that final Igures would not be available for at east two days. Leaders of the patriotic drive for he s"\en welfare organizations servng America's fighting forces remained hopeful of attaining their goal, asertlng that state and local committees n all parts of the country were too utsy tabulating last minute contribuions to report their totals to national lead-quarters.

American prisoners released by the Germans, says a dispatch from American headquarters in France, are niak- x ing their way singly and in pairs across 1 the line at various points. The (Jer- ^ man authorities apparently are unable to carry out the withdrawal plans as _ agreed upon owing to the disturbed and disorganized condition of transportatlon within that country. j To meet the emergency the American army has established stations at o various points along the American sec- 9 tor of occupation where prisoners can be received and cared for as they arrive. Kventually they will be concentrated at four main camixs at Chau- J deney, Revigny, Chellcs and Saleux. The returned men give varying ac- ^ counts of their treatment by the Ger- ' mans. Some say they were treated r very harshly and brutally, while others say their captors were stem but not unduly harsh. Seemingly the treatment depended largely upon the ad- ^ ministration of the prison In which the Americans were confined. Th" physi- t cal condition of the men also varies. The American Red Gross Is estab- ' lishlng relief stations at the four con- centration camps. Surrender of U-Hottts.?Twenty Gcr- ^ man submarines were surrendered (o t Rear Admiral Reginald W.
