Friday, April 20, 1917. (
That was a fine meeting on Tues-' ]
day and the order was indeed gooa. j
The parade was orderly and every |
one seemed to realize the seriousness i
of the situation. i
: ? j.
The report in the papers one day! <
this week stated that the French haa ]
killed 100,000 Germans in one day on <
the 'Western front. No French. were;
reported injured. At this rate it |
"Won't take long to end the war. { ]
What this town needs now more j
than anything is some sort of organ-!
ization so that the work which is to j
be done in the civic preparedness! i
campaign may be done systematically j ]
and so as to achieve the most results, j ]
A chamber of commerce or some;
sort of organization through which!
the county agent and those who are:^
conducting the campaign could co-jv
operate and who could assist in a
rwa\ that would be profitable, woulaj :
be a great thing. Possibly the besti*
organized county in the State is Sum-[
ter and it was worked through the *
chamber of commerce in the city of | <
Sumter. And Laurens has done trie' t
same thing largely through the or-!
ganized commercial body of the citv.j
Money is needed to carry on the work
-and it could be more equitably dis- j
trfbuted and collected through an or-'
ganized body.
But somehow our people do not <
seem to realize the good of an organ-j
ized commercial body, or if they do
they have never sustained one any
length of time. Some sort of organ
isation is sadly needed here at this
time.
Have you read the address of Presi- j
dent Wilson to his countrymen? If!
not turn to page fcwo of this paper
and read it. If you have read it there
can be no harm in reading it again. I
This is an address that the school j
teachers would do well to read to tha
children and then have the children j
to read it themselves, li is wen saia:
and then it contains a message which
all our people should heed.
It has been decided to hold about!
26 meetings in various sections of the
county next Wednesday night at 8:30
o'clock and there will be some one
or two persons present to make short
talks to the farmers and their wives
who may attend. These are supposed
*? *r\ Tioort tall-o aKanf cr?mp
matters that very seriously affect the
people of this country and which
we very much fear the people have
not yet fully realized. Corn is no*
$2.00 the bushel and flour $12 the
barrel. tAnd it seems that if some
thing is not done to increase produc
tion the price will not be the seriout?
problem but the question will be to
get the food at any price. Coopera
tion and every one doing his part
is the thing that is needed in this
hour. There is no place in this army
for the drone or the sulker.

firing along the coast,
A telephone message from Colum

mation that Gov. Manning had issu

man of Anderson who some seven or
eight years ago went wrong with his

"nost distinguished citizens of Ashe

Citizen that "we can best serve the
country by making every acre of
American soil do its best in the pro

make a most practical suggestion:
' Let camps for boys be erected In
Three or four sections of the county

young men of the city go to these
<:'amps and offer their services to the
'armers nearby at reasonable wages
*o aid in raising food crops. Soon
4here will be a number of school boys!
out of employment. Tents can be {
rented on very favorable terms.

torial columns of the Greenville News
of recent date and the suggestion
->f Judge Murphy is worthy of consid
eration. And there are a lot of oth
?r people around the towns who seem
o have nothing to do and It would
-e well to get them enlisted in this
novement of food production. There
'3 no time to waste because the time
'or planting is here and if the crops}
re not soon planted there can be j
o harvesting.
And only second in the producing jl
~f the crops is the arrangement forjl
he marketing, and the preserving of j I
uch crops as are perishable "by pro- I
idins canning factories and teach-JI
ing how to can successfully, that isr?
;o ha t-o preserve the food that is
panned. j
'i iie Charleston American suggests
.hat some one be appointed who shall'
iave charge of the distribution and
lie conserving of the wheat and other
:'oo<i stuffs that we have so that Uie
supply will last until the next har-:
rest comes along. The people do not;
ret realize the gravity of the situa-j
:ion. The men who are called to'
irms will have to be fed Oi they can |

city council is doing what it can to
ward stopping cruelty to animals.
