The Rotary Club of Spartanburg is ' backing this Conference. All communications should be directed to Mr. George E. Simmons cf the Spartanburg Y. M. C. A. Registrations close December 3. TO THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. Various campaigns for money, a natural reaction from the high tension of war days, intense work due to transitional conditions in the economic world, and anxiety over the cost of living are among the factors which have' slowed up the Memoria' campaign in this state. We think il best to look these conditions squarelj . in the face, so that we may knov what is to be overcome. On the other hand, South Caro linians have never before been s< prosperous. In asking for voluntary donations amounting to four hundre( thousand dollars, the Memorial Com mission, created by the Genera Assembly, is not asking for any thing unreasonable. And when on< stops to consider the purpose fo: which the campaign is being waged the request takes on an aspect tha" is nything but unreasons He. Th? * sov.o and daughters of this c.atc, v7hc and worked so we. for greai cause of. democracy must r. ver be forgotten; moreover, there mU3l be' tangible, visible evidence of I i Make This Bank Y i y > Thanks to i ? Our appreciate trusted to this 1 Itiixb^viciiyty biu Day prompts o\ ftors to extend timp I The Exch< "The Bank 01 i i ? ? n ii i ? ?i the state's gratitude to them. The I campaign will not fail, for South: Carolinians have never yet, and never will be unappreciative of splen-' did services rendered. Because the campaign for four; hundred thousand dollars, to supple-1 ment the one hundred thousand made j available by the General Assembly, j has been retarded, the Memorial | Commission has decided to continue t | the time for solicitation of subscrip- j tions up to the convening of the next session of the General Assembly. At { that time the" commission should be ! , able to report full and complete suc>. j cess. I Thfe impression has prevailed that j ' 1 ?Vinildi-nrr tne proposed meiuuuai 'would, in effect, be but a colle~g' 'chapel on the university grounds;) ; this is incorrect. The proposed j building Would be a historical museum 1 for South Carolina, and its location, While on grounds held by the uni-'j versity trustees, would not -in any way hinder its use by the general public* It would not be in theory or in tact, mereiy a pare uj. mc umvexsity, but both in theory and fact, a State Memorial. There also has been an effort to have the type of memorial changed to a hospital, but the soldiers? through the American Legion, have spoken decidedly against . this proposition. ! We appeal to the various counties that have not yet raised their quotas to epedite the campaign. No nnrwmiiTnt.v ran have it said that when the state was seeking to perpetuate the memory of her noble sons and daughters, that it was indifferent. A permanent memorial is necessary to keep alive the facts, and to keep fresh the inspiration. I Robert A. Cooper, ; ^ Chairman. | Richard I. Manning, ' Vice Chairman. Columbia. S.

Abbeville Press and Banner. The rabbit business is looking up, and we expect to see a great many more farmers engaged in it in the next few years besides farmers Hor ton and Kerr, it is true tnat tney have looked further ahead than some of the others, .seeing to circumvent the damages to be wrought by the boll weevil, but the others will follow. A few issues hack we had something to say about the amount oi money to be made by gathering in the cotton on the rabbits tails. Last week we carried an article goifig to ?how that the rabbit skins had become immensely valuable astfurs and that they would be in great demand* This week we have an article from the Atlanta Journal telling of a big rabbit association to be formed there jn the next few 'days to promote the | growing of rabbits for meat. ? i, Subscribe to The Herald and !
