MAKE SPLENDID RECORD IN THE
RECENT ONE HUNDRED MILE
HIKE.
CITADEL MEN AT BANQUET
Delightful Entertainment Varies the
Monotony of Camp Life on the
Border.?Second Regiment in Target
Practice.
With the South Carolina Troops on
the border.?The remarkable record of
the Palmetto troops on the recent 100
mile hike of the Tenth division has
brought them .square in the limelight
and compliments from the men who
know are becoming of daily occurrence.
Wherever there is a gathering
of the higher officers of the army,
whether officially or unofficially, some
remark is certain 'to be made in reference
to the excellent record being
made by the guardsmen who represent
South Carolina. Probably the most
highly appreciated compliment, because
of its source, was the letter received
several days ago by the South
Carolina brigade commander from
Prig. Gen. Morton, who commands the
division of which the Palmetto troops
form a part. To really appreciate the
\-n1no ?f tho rnmnlimpiil rontnlllpd in
the letter, one should know the abrupt,
matter-of-fact, unsentimental nature
troops and the Second regiment third.
None of the Palmetto troops fell out
on the march. The faci that the men
stuck to their commands while marching
was mentioned as a proof of their
loyalty to their regiments and to the
state that they represented. In camp
each night many a man could be seen
with foot blistered from heel to toe.
nursing it for hours that he might not
be one to lower the record of his state
by falling out on the following day's
hike.
The two South Carolina Infantry
regiments were not the only representatives
that brought honor to the .
state, for a perfect record was made
by the Palmetto field hospital, the |
troop of cavalry and the company of j
engineers. The cavalry and the engl- j
neers were probably the hardest worked
of all the outfits on the hike and j
they pulled off their parts In the
finest manner.
The Citadel Banquet.
There are 70 Citadel men among the !
troops from South Carolina now on !
the bonier, and Thursday evening. Oe- i
hober the 2Gth. they gathered at the
Toltec club for one of the most enjoyable
occasions since the soldiers' arrival
in R1 Paso. Capt. G. 11. Mahon,
Jr.. was elected chairman, with the
following committee to assist in the
arrangements: Maj. A. M. Ilrallsford, I
Capt. C. N. Muldrow. Sergt. A. R. :
Rhett, Sergt. J. A. Mood. Jr., Sergt. !
R. H. Hudgens and Corporal P. R.
Rogers. The committee was well se- j
lected. for the banquet was ideal in
every detail. The following toasts were
drunk. Capt. Mahon acting as toastm
nut or dtmI nlnvlmr flu* nari In
usual happy and entertaining manner:
"Carolina, Here's to You," Col. W.
K*. Wright; "The Citadel Today." i
Sergt. J. A. Mood. Jr., "Our Record
on the Hike." Tol. E. M. Hlvthe; "The i
Surgeon in the Service." MaJ. J. A.
Hrailsford; "The Relation of the
Guard to the Army." Lieut. Col. Allison.
"The Citadel Yesterday," Col. II.
B. Springs.
On Spur of Moment.
The programme of speeches was
not anounced until the banquet had !
been served and the speakers were
ignorant of the toasts to which they
were respond until they were called
upon by the toastrnaster. Though extempore.
the responses were unusually
entertaining and illuminating. During
the course of his remarks. Col.
Wright, who before being placed In
cbmmand of the Palmetto brigade, was
commanding officer of the 2.1rd infantry.
U. S. A., took occasion to express
his appreciation of the loyalty and seal
being shown by the South Carolina !
troops and his pleasure in commanding
such an efficient body of men. Col.
Blythe and Coi. Springs also took occasion
to thank the men and especially
the Citadel men. for their part in
increasing the efficiency of the two
regiments. They both also expressed
their deep appreciation of the excel- |
lent services that Col. Wright and
Lt. Col. Allison had rendered the Palmetto
boys. MnJ. Ilrailsford. in his
artistic manner, gave a glowing account
of the surgeon's part in the serviec
and a startling account of the
numberless duties of the field hospital
corps. Col. Allison, in a clear and i
forceful maner, discussed the relation |
of the regular and the guardsman.
Sergeant Mood told entertainingly of

To Target Practice.
The Second South Carolina infantry

the Alamgorda target range, where
they will spend one week in target
practice. The range is about 24 miles

The men will be equipped for the
field and will sleep under the small
dog tents. All the regiment will go
except the machine gun company, the
headquarters company and the sanitary

Survey S. C. Resources for War.
South Carolina's material resources
for participation in the national defense
have been inventoried for the
naval consulting board by a board of
engineers representing the five great

Jr., of Hartsvtlle and R. N. Brackett
of Clemson Collego. Dr. Riggs has
lodged the hoard's report with the
naval consulting board.
South Carolina, the board says, can
be immediately useful In ease of war,
chiefly in the production of the follow
ing: Food for man and beast?this
state is 80 per cent agricultural; cotton
mill products for clothing and tonnage?South
Carolina ranks next to
Massachusetts in the number of spindles;
cotton oil products for food and
explosives; naval stores and timber;
sulphuric acid (from fertilizer plants).
Undeveloped resources of the state
which could be utilized are listed as
follows: Water powers suitable for
fixation of nitrogen from the air; a
large supply of nine straw nnH
stalks, suitable in emergency as a
source of cellulose; small deposits of
cerolite. from which 5 per cent of po
tash may lie obtained; saw mill waste,
from which industrial alcohol may be
extracted.

engineering and chemistry from
the Citadel, the University of South

the number of 463, or 72 per cent of
the total have been tiled and the hoard
hopes eventually to obtain the rest.
Inventories of all but seven out of the
172 cotton mills were obtained by Mr.
Scaife. The expense of the board's
work was defrayed out of a fund o(
$170 privately subscribed. Only $5.64
of this amount was expended on the
traveling expenses of the board. The
board held three conferences, one In
Greenwood and two In Columbia.

A charming schoolteacher whose

She teaches w hat is known by
some as a "subnormal" school (which
very often is more normal than "sub")
and the other morning several of her
pupils were gathered around her rending
a very interesting (?) story, such
as is printed in school readers, and
one sentence ran, "The little Japanese
girl greeted tlieiu warmly, etc."
"What is meant by 'greet?' " asked
the teacher, who by the way was
showing off her pupils and the method
of teaching them to an interested
young man who had been brought in
by the principal to watch her labors.
There was a great deal of browj
puckering and the word "greet" fulled
to register on any brain. Finally she
1 said, "If I were to come into the room
! where you were, what would you do?"
There was a second silence and puz;
zled looks and then (from a tall boy
j of sixteen) : "I'd hug you."
The visitor, with his handkerchief
i to his mouth, sped front the room, and

his shouts of laughter could be heard

Mrs. Commuter had lain awake with

. she was just beginning to round out
the first continuous hour of slumber,
the little six-year-old girl called softly
i from her nearby crib:
"Mother."
No answer. Again, a little louder:
i "Mother!"
I Mother said nothing. Again the
child's voice, this time mezzo-forte:
"Mother!"
"Well, what is it?"
