CAMP STYX PIT IX OKDER FOR TROOI'S Columbia.

When r_'the First and Second regiments were ie at Camp Moore, prior to being sent T._, to the Mexican border, ana after their aj return from the border before being 0p demobilized, the two regiments includ "ier only about 2,000 men. The two & J regiments now, when recruited to full m' war strength, under the orders from n , the War Department, will number ^ more than 4.000 men, and other units n j which may be at Camp Moore at the : same time would considerably increase ^_! this number.

Country's OIL ,(J ?* Spartanburg Herald, 16th. l() It was learned from army sources, ~~ considered authentic, but the coast artillery branches of the army will be ' among the first to see service * in; ! France. Instead of going as coast ar- j >f j tillery, however, it is understood these1 n organizations will be used to handle; j heavy guns behind the fighting line n' and seige guns. l(* If this policy is carried out by the ej war department, the local coast ai J tillery company, m connection ?uu | other National Guard coast artillery corps, -will probably in the near fu s-iture be given special training in the a use of artillery. Their previous train-' lt. ing will qualify them to learn quicx.y j the use of the guns to which they will' a be assigned in service. One of th*> s.l principal differences between this ana i corviVo ic tha.. the ETUnS I ! II1C ' C^uiai ov.1 '-vv .U r.1 used in coast defense are considered .y; stationary, and the artillery used in j the field is movatJTe. j I-j While no official statement has yet l-j<been made on the subject, thein )r; seems a good likelihood that the r" I coast artillery of Spartanburg after ^ithey are called to arms on the 15th Jiof next month, will be put through i !e | a course of special training to enable i- artillery used on battlefields, and then,' perhaps, sent to France for a-ctual service on the French front. ARREST SLACKERS BY THE THIRTIETH i ! Special A sent, of the Department of ? * Justice sow A&KHlg- IiiYtr?ru*;a tion of Beports In This District. Greenwood Journal. All persons who have failed to re gister for the selective military draft are to be- arrested by June 30, ac cording to the information of local Federal authorities. To complete the work of rounding up the "slackers" by that time will require considerable '51 work, as a numuei ui ;e, been received from all parts of the h- district. w The policy pursued by the authori ties so far has been to have an in vestigation made into the various re j ported cases before making an ar at | rest. A special agent of the depart at i ment of justice is now at work in *?, this district, it is learned, and is in 18 j vestigating the reports that have e(* j been received of persons who failed ! to register. This was considered a i proper thing to do, inasmuch as many i-oTvnrtc nf nlleered "slackers" were made after a checking up with the democratic primary club rolls of last year. There is a strong possibility 7 that many of those who are reported have moved into another precinct and k*. registered there. C- Very few arrests hare so far keen wa4e in this district.

C., June 20.?Fruit for use in pie or salads or as stewed fruit can be put up or canned with out the use of any sugar at all, ac-, cording to the canning specialists of i the Department. They, therefore, ad-; - ' - ?1-_ i V.io-Vi 1 vise muse wuo, uanusc ui mo u>6u; price of sugar, have been think- j ing of reducing the amount of fruit they put up, to can as much of their, surplus as possible by the use of boiling water when sugar sirup is! beyond their means. Any fruit, they say, may be successfully sterilized on^ ratoinod in thft r.a^t hv 8imi>lY 1 ?ilU 1 AAA VMW r??vM j AT ? , adding boiling water instead of the; hot sirup. The use of sugar, of course,' is desirable in the canning of all kinds ! of fruits and makes a better and ready sweetened product. Moreover, most of the fruits when canned in water j alone do not retain their natural fla-j vor, texture and color as well as fruit; put up in sirup. Fruit canned with out sugar to be used for sauces or desserts, must be sweetened. ; Directions for Canning Fruits With-! ont Simp. v| Can the product the sanje day it is; picked. Cull, stem, or seed, and clean' the fruit by placing it in a strainer and opuring water over it until it is clean. Pack the product thoroughly, in glass jars or tin cans until theyj are full; use the handle of a table I spoon, wooden ladle, or table knife | for packing purposes. Pour over the; fruit boiling water from a kettle,! . place rubbers and caps in position, j ' partially seal if using glass jars, seal j completely if using tin cans. Place! the containers in a sterilizaing vatj such as a wash boiler with false bot-1 torn, or other receptacle improvised for the purpose. If using a hot water. . bath outfit, process for 30 minutes; j count time after the water has reach-1 ; ed the boiling point; the water must; ! cover the highest jar in container., | After sterilizing remove packs, seal I glass jars, wrap in paper to prevent bleaching and store in a dry, coll ; place.

The president of the chapter hopes to be at home before; very long, when definite action can be taken. Orangeburg, S. C. To the Daughters cf the Confederacy, i Chapters of the South Carolina; Division: After weeks of correspondence to try to formulate simple plans for the : U. D. C. to work as an organization! under the rules and instructions or the' Red Cross society, it seems best to work as an auxiliary, (see marked en-i closure). j Ten or more U. D. C. paid-up Red Cross members will constitute an auxiliary. ; Join the Red Cross chapter in your city or town. If there is no Red Cross chapter organized there, join the near est Red Cross chapter in your coun ty, and when a Red Cross chapter is organized in your city or town be transferred to same. Contritions will adjust themselves after awhile. Dues to the Red Cross are $1.00 per mprnhpr- nnp half r>f ^monnt ing returned to the U. D. C., so that you will have a fund to start your work. When you outline your work for the Red Cross, send a duplicate copy to the vice president in your district, so that the vice president can report at the State convention what the U. D. C. as an organization is doing for the Red Cross. We are a patriotic organization and stand for this work, and I am sure the South Carolina Division will do her part well and nobly. Each chapter will decide what part of this work they can undertake, as some chapters are so much smaller than others, and we warn every. V. D. C. to feel herself a part of this great work. Any chapter not able to have ten paidup Red Cross members can as sist the nearest U. D. C. or Red Cross chapter, thereby contributing her mite. With best wishes, Cordially, MRS. JOHN CART, 1st Vice-Pres. S. C. Div. U. D. C. Notice.
