.GLENN -LOWRY COMPANY LOOKS AFTER WELFARE EMPLOYEES "They have changed as all things changeth. Nothing in this world ca " t." "Years roll on and pass foi v ,-r. What is coming who can say?" Almost daily we repeat these lin?s of the poet, for changes crowd thick and fast upon us in Whitmire. A year ago the business section of our town was destroyed by fire and since that time the Glenn-Lowry Manufacturing company, which is the larger part of this place, has changed hands. "I know there are no errors In the great Eternal plan, And all things work together For the final good of man." 5Up from the ashes of the old, new j and better stores have arisen. It is evident that Mr. Alex Long the new president of the Glenn-Low xy Mfg. company, has much in store for the good of the town. Mr."Long is a noble, conscientious man, a man of ability and experience, having three or four cotton mills under his direction. He is planning many things for the pleasure and progress of his people here. We have here good school and church advantages. A band well equipped and with nice new uniforms.

After the meeting Governor Man-' ning gave out the following state- j ment: "Scretary of War Baker met us at 12:3<) today and we discussed the question of the draft for troops in South Carolina, especially with reference to the negro troops. The Puerto Rican troops will not be sent to South Carolina nor will the white and negro troops be mixed.

In the brief, but glorious, history | of the Confederate States of America, : the Dart borne by South Carolina ; stands second to none. Even before the seecesion of the Southern States i and the establishment of a Confederate Government, who first laid down the very principles upon whieii that government was founded?^-Was i it not the three South Carolinians, i i John C. Calhoun, the great statesman, I Geo. McDuffie, the orator, and Robert 1 Y. Hayne, the reasoner?all sincere advocates 01 oiaie sovereignty. : Acting upon this principle of States j "i^hta, ,whevi future harmony anrl | justice between the opposing sections j i fViT'nitn^ Qtotof c-aamfiH imnncci. ! ; \j i iui^v*3Ui r I bel, South Carolia passed the ordi-; ; nance severing the relation existing 1 | between herself and the other stat23 j i of the Union. This was done on the 20th of December, 1860. Her example 1 was soon followed by other Southern j States, uud cn Febiuaiy 4, 1861, the Southern Confederacy was organized. To this government South Carolina transferred all the loyalty and devc- i t tion she had borne for the Union; an<l henceforth, she was ready, if need be,! to shed the last drop of her blood in! its defense. la the war which followed the i secession of the South, none stood the i test of loyalty better than did Soutii J Carolina. At the beginning of the j struggle South Carolina furnished to: the Confederacy nine regiments of I State militia, well organized and equipped--a contribution greater than j from any other other State. During the entire war she gave more sol-: uiei o IU yi upur^iuu IU uuut: pvpura tion than did any other State. The; total number -of volunteers, exclusive of State militia and many old meh , and boys toward the close of the war,| was about 45,000. i Moreover, the devotion of South ; Carolina to the Confederacy is shown by the fac'c that most of the battles,' i in which our troops were engaged, j were fought in other parts of the . South or in Maryanl and Pennsylvania. This State was not the scene , of important conflict except in the i valiant defense of Charleston ana j Fort Sumter, and towards the end of the war, during Sherman's devasta, ting march through the South. How ever, the shot that marked the bej ginning of the conflict was fired fronj j South Carolina upon the federal garj rison at Fort Sumter. To the. soldiers of 'South Carolina are due a large a hare of the glory j won in the first great battle of tfle iat, Manassas, .fVa.? Gea.

Other important South Caxo. lina commander* ia this fight were |Gens. Barnard E. Bee, Johnson Ha good and M. L. Bonham. In the second battle i>f Manassas, tiie most iinportan' Sonth Carolina infantry troops were the brigades of Gens. Jenkins, Evans and Gregg. It i was Gen. Gresc who. when asked: If he could hold bis position aeat back the famous reply: "'Tell Gen Hill that my ammunition is exhausted, but I wUi.Jiold my position with the bayonet." "* The piacs was held; the day was won. j In the el&tter part of the year 18S?, the brigades of Gregg and Kershaw, played a prominent part In the battle of Harper's Ferry, Sharpsburg at*d Fredericksburg. At FVetfericksburg I Gen. Gregg was killed by a body of the enemy which were mistaken for | friends. Gen. R. B. X*e in express-1 ing Ms sorrow for the death of ao j noble a leader, says: "The death of such a man is a costly sacrifice, for-' it is to men of his ,fci*h integrity country must look to give character to her councils, that she may be re1 spected and honored by all nations.^ Gen. Gregg's brigade was now put under the command of Gen. Samuel McGowan. In the memoraWe fight of ChanceiI lorsville the brigade of Gen. McGowan was place^Jn the front lines of Gen. A. P.

In the same battle, great heroism was also shown by the men of Johnson Hagood's brigade. In the fig.it at Bloody Angle, perhaps the moot sanguinary single day's battle of the entire war, the heroes were South Carolinians and Mississipians. In the army of the West throughout the conflict there were three South Carolina rgiments, commanded ay Gens. S. R. Grist and A. M. Alanigaui?, that participated in almost every important battle. South Carolina led the fight at Murfreesboro, and helped again the victory of Chickamauga. When Gen. Lee at last surrendered to Grant at Appomattox Court Houaf, Gen. Bratton's South Carolina brigade ?r was the largest in the army, of Virginia. Finally, the daring South Carolina horsemen, under the leadership of Gens. Wade Hampton, M. C. Butler and Mart Gary, formed an indispen sable part in the Confederate army. After the death of Gen. J. E. B. Stuart Gen. Hampton was elevated to th* rank of lieutenant general, and. put in command of all the cavalry forces. South Carolina lieutenant generals of infantry were: James Lonstreet, appointed from Alabama; D. H. Hltt, appointed from North Carolina; R. H. ; Anderson and Stephen D. Lee. Among the many brigadier generals not mentioned above are: Stephen EII liot, Ellison Capers, Abner Perrin, T. l ; E. Logan, James Chestnut and J. J. ' Pettigrew, besides onher brave officers. In the cabinet of President Davis there were tnree soutn uaro| linians?D. G. Memmr.nger and G. L | Trenholm, succesively Secretaries of ! the Treasury, and Lewis Cruger, comptroller and solicitor. The cost of the war to South Carolina cannot be estimated. Besides the vast anqountg of supplies furnished to the army much private property i was sacrificed to the cause of the Opnj federacy by many of the - State's | wealtihest citizens, anions who many | be mentioned Gen.

The aid which they gave to the soldiers can be oniy briefly touched upon. At one time when Gen.

At every battlefield were to be found sfomen from this State caring for the mounded. They established "wayside hospitalS," and cared for every ConfAdprnt* soldiers who haDDened to nasg their door.
