AULL, EDITOR. j Friday, May 17, 1918.1 The Herald and Xews today is a Red Cross edition and everythhing has been made to stand aside for the Sed Cross matter. We have a number of items of news and other matter that we could and would have used Vmt fnr thic Senator Tillman's address at the convention, the platform of the party and the report of the school closings at Dead Fall and Silverstreet, and a lot of other matter that we would be glad to use but for the Red Cross work. Kext week the drive for more funds for the Red Cross is to begin. Newberry's apportionment is small, and we will do what we are asKea 10 ao. There is no greater organization in the world than the Red Cross, and it is true of this organization in times of peace as well as war, but at this particular time it is doing more to help those who are hurt in battle anrf those who are suffering in civil life from the effect of war than any other organization in the world today. When you contribute to the Red Cross you are contributing directly to the aid of your boy if he is in the war and should be shot or wounded or become sick, and you can contribute from a selfish standpoint if nothing else could move you, but as a matter of fart vou should contribute because of the work that this great organization is doing. President Wilson has designated May 30, national memorial day, as a day when the people shall gather in _ their places of worship and pray for peace through the victory of the allied armies, and peace that may "oe established upon mercy, justice and good will. It seems to us that every one should join in such a service. Gov. Manning has also issued a proclamation along the same line. The cotton association which met in Columbia decided that the farmers should hold cotton for 35 cents. It also passed resolutions against the price Sxing by congress.
