This old town, perhaps, is no exception to many more in this "land of the tree and home of the brave," te one respect, and that is the idle man is found only in the town limits. In the country everybody, men women and children are at work. Prices received for their last year's term products have been a great stimni*5 to their energies to do better in ltlS. Corn, meat and potatoes are plentiful but at war prices.

The war spirit is not at boiling toat as it was in the sixties; not at all as Bill Arp described the volunteers of that day and time: "He had flfht in him so ho$ that water poured on him would fairly sixs." Now to a great extent we are living in a conscription age, preferring to stay at home and chase the dollar and let the other fellow put on the kaiki and go to France.

We notice that the Solons that constituted the last session of the South Carolina legislature arraigned the poor old turkey bussard before that August body on a charge of hog murder. Well, it does look like one or two in that bunch of wisdom had lived prior to the time the first imported hogs and shanghl chickens came to this country and also remember that neither hog or chicken cholera was known or heard of, and further remember that the bustard family exceeded the^present one-hundred to one.

At that moment, then and there, the attraction of gravitation was born. And now we are taught old mother earth, sun, moon and stars are controlled by attraction of gravitation. Why? Because Sir Isaac Newton said so. But Moses tells a different story. We stand pat with Moses and take many things that scientists teach with a grain of salt, especially as regard the innocent old bussard. Dr. Nelson, chief of the Beauru of Biological Surrey says th? bussard is not guilty of distributing hog cholera germs, the South Carolina Legislature to the countrary notwithstanding. How fortunate for (he homely old turkey bussard that the chief executive of that state is a wise old gentleman and must hare been born in the days when raxor back hogs and domlnecker chickens were immune from any fatal disease and how nice in him in refusing to sign the death sentence of the bussard, with no evidence to convict, save whet some so called scientists trumped up against God's special Scavenger, created by Him for that purpose.

DRAFT QUOTA TO BE 5000 MEN State Not to Furnish More Than 5,000 by September 1 Columbia, March 2?Governor Manning stated today that while in 1 Washington this week he had a con- j ference with Secretary Baker, and ' the fact was emphasised that South j Carolina would be called upon to fur" niah not more than 5,000 men for se- j lective draft service between now j and September 1.
