Your membership dues will help to support the county nurse who goes into every community in Dillon county instructing mothers how to care for their children, inspecting the | school children, pointing out defects which may ber remedied and prevent serious trouble later on in life. Prysical defects handicap 30 per cent of our people. 10 per cent of preventable diseases. Many people die because they do not know how to live. 300,000 babies die annually in the U. S. largely due to ignorance or indifference of those responsible for them. The Red Cross is spreading the gospel of better health throughout the land through its courses in Home Hygiene, first aid and personal work of public health nurses. Home Service looks after discharg' ed soldiers, sailors and their families 1 who need help, sick or disabled ex1 service men and in every way tries to serve them. Your dollar will help to "see these men through" and make I better future citizens of the children of today. J ABRAHAM LIN'- I COLX'S PARENTAGE. Prof. H. T. Cook of Greenville Brings New Evidence to Light. 1 Greenville, No\. 5. ?The mooted question as to the parentage of Abraham Lincoln, which has been revived editofially by southern newspapers, ; this week brought a new answer, r hitherto unpublished, from the pen of H. T. Cook, professor emeritus at Furman University, who states that Lincoln's own version that he was illegitimate ought to have some weight. Prof. Cook in a communication to the Greenville Piedmont, said: In passing final judgment on the parentage , | of Abraham Lincoln, referred to in ! The Piedmont, his own version that j " he was illegitimate ought to have some weight. His law partner, Hern don, wrote a life of Lincoln in which | he stated on the authority of Lincoln j himself that he was of illegitimate | birth. For some reason, the first edi', tion was suppressed, it is said, and '.even the few copies Bold were ferret[ ed out and rcovered, and another edition with the statement about his birth suppressed was offered to the 1 public. One copy of the first edition is now kept in a bank safe in the Pee " Dee section and I have seen with my . own eyes the expunged statement. Now unless the veracity of his law partner is impeached or this story j ! shown to be another mytn, 11 wuij continue to be appropriate that the I , two men, Hamilton and Lincoln, the | most admired of all for their genuis . in inspiring Americans with an il-H , legimitate and unconstitutional love, [ of self and imperial power, should I themselves be classed as illegitimates, . born out of lawful wedlock. ! ADJUSTMENT OF PRICES. A mere readjustment of prices doesn't mean that the people actual needs are any less. It only means that ] , we have got to think faster, study our buying closely, offer better values and adjust ourselves to the changing condition. Quick turn-overs based on aggressive merchandising , of our timely bargains is the solu, tion of the problem. There isn't any i reason for half-hearted thoughts. , With but six percent of the worlds population and seven percent of the . world's land, we produce 60 percent - of the world's supply of cotton, there, jfore there should not be any alarm, [but to do your trading where your [money will go the furthest.
