The Filbert Picnic. Thj Enquirer, Friday. "If it hadn't been for the money interests of England, America would not be in war today. I am of the opinion that America should and could still have peace with Germany and not war. I don't believe this war was necessary. If money is eorruntincr Christianity and T believe it is, as it is corrupting your editors and many other men, what is the country coming to? But they say this is treason. If it is treason let it be," declared former Governor Cole L. Blease, who was the centre of attraction at the Filbert picnic, held in Purslcy's woods yesterday. It was a tremendous crowd at , Filbert, probaply the largest that has ever attended one of the annual gatherings there. Rep- i resentatives of every section of York county and the State of South Carolina was the audience, i and there were hundreds from i across the North Carolina line. Only two speeches were made, one by Congressman Stevenson, the other by former Governor Bleasc; the other invited speakers for various reasons being < unable to attend. Fully 2,000 people gathered around the speakers' stand in the centre of the woods to hear them. It was an undemonstrative audience, and one which listened with respectful silence to every word that was uttered. Occasionally during the address of Mr. Blease, he was interrupted by a yell of "Hurrah for Colie," or "You tell 'em, Colie" but the old time Fildert fire and enthusiasm was lacking. What little applause there was, the former governor got, and when he concluded his address scores of his friends and political supporters shook hands with him. There were no less than 5,000 people at the picnic and very probably there were 8,000. The' crowd began to arrive early in i the morning, and as usual,! scattered all over the village, j Congressman St3venson gave it as his opinion that there were 5,000 people present: former Governor Blease said 8,000; estimates of other judges varied from 5,000 bo 10,000. Good order, quite characteristic of Filbert picnics of recent years at least, was prevalent and there was little evidence of liquor. The News of Gold Hill.

Sec. 3. All ordinances or parts of ordinances inconsistent with this ordinance are hereby repealed. Done and ratified in council assembled this 3rd day of July, 1917. B. E. PATTERSON. Attest: Mayor. W. A. ROACH. Clerk. Woodrow Wilson Has made this statement: "If a man does not provide for his children, if he does not provide for all those dependent upon him, and if he has not that vision of things to come, and that care for the days which have not yet dawned, which we sum up in the whole idea of thrifty and saving, then he has not opened his eyes to any adequate conception of human life. We are in this world to provide not for ourselves but for others, and that is the basis of economy.'' A life insurance policy in the Union Central is the safest, best and cheapest mode of provision for your dependents and of accumulating savings for yourself, thus in one means accomplishing two ends.
