CbliMnbia, March 12.—The annual reunion of the Confederate veterans of South Carolina will be held this year in Greenwood in the latter part of April or the first of May, the date not yet having b:on definite y ‘fixed.. Maj. Gen. W. A. Clark, commanding the South Carotin i fivision of the veterans, said yesterday that the in vitation to hold the reunion in Green wood this year was received several days ago, and that the invitation would be accepted. The exact date will be left to the convenience of the hosts of the veterans. It has been the custom to hold the annual re union between the planting and the working seasons, but few of the., vet erans are able to do much physical labor now, on account of the infirmi ties incident to advanced age. The program has not yet been ar ranged in its entirety. It is planned to have several addresses delivered, and it is probable that the usual fes tivities that mark the annual gath-‘ erings of the veterans will be engaged in. The Pons of Veterans will also presumably hold their annual meet ing at Greenwood, though General Clark was unable to give definite in formation as to the plans of the -Sons yesterday. lot down largely upon the plea that we are furnishing a refuge for the * oppressed and needy and that the gr.it it tide and industry of these for eigners will transform them into desirable rrtizrrrs.y -The - past- -his tory of our country, to a large measure, has justified this policy, but our country has now entered upon a new epoch and is facing 'changed conditions in regard to immigration- Neither the. new m>r the old world is the same and an exchange of citizenship cannot he made upon the same basis as in the past. A man seeks a new country us ually ou account of commercial discontent or because he is no long er willing to abide by the iuws of the country in which he dwells. On this account the people of Eu rope formerly had a valid excuse for coming to America. In this respect the war has brought a change. A more democratic 'pro gram is being planned now for the nations of the old world. ‘‘It is to be mode a place where equal ad vantages will be extended to all classes. In order . that this may come to be necessary and the countries in volved will need the aid of even’ % citizen to carry on the necessary work. The people of Europe are needed in Europe and not in Amer ica. If a man does not care enough for his own country to aid in its upbuilding when the present op portunities are offered, his .alle giance to an adopted country' wfould be equally worthless. While eco nomic conditions of European countries are chaotic, the blame is theirs, and it is their duty to work persistently to remedy the eondi- fion- . >- Many men seek a new country in parts of the 30th Division. BOSTON LADIES WATCH HAT OF MRS. WILSON The annual reunion of the Confed erate veterans of the entire South will be,.held in June. Tampa la making a bid for the national reunion, and it is understood that Savannah will ex tend an invitation also. First Lady of Land Returns From Paris Wearing Creation of Eveque. No woman could return from Paris without at least one new and strik ing acquisition in the way of feminine apparel and certainly the wife of a president could hardly resist the temptation to introduce a fashion novelty with the promise of its prov ing to be the season’s drawing card. • So when Mrs. Wilson stepped ashore at Boston the other day, upon the return presidential party’s return from France, every eye that belonged to a member of her own sex followed her as far as the striking color of her non Paris hat could be seenr- And every body wondered just how to classify the color. It was new% strange, irresisti bly becoming and stirred the hearts of onlookers with a desire to have one exactly like it. The secret of the color was revealed yesterday when Charles C. Kurzman of Fifth Avenue arrived on board the Rochambeau, after several months in Paris, selecting dresses, hats and coats. And many of these irresistible creations are of the color for which Mrs. Wilson Is sponsor over here. It’s pass reconstruction will [name, is eVeque. and the very word conjures up tones of ecclesiastical brilliance, which have not often been seen In the fashionable Fifth Avenue throng, but which will generously sprinkle" the great Easter parade. According to Mr. Kurzman eveque will be the favorite hat coloring for some time. There have been forerun ners of this bright head 'wear in the trim little turbans of rust’color, henna and various oth^r shades verging on purple, red and orange, but Mra. Wil son has by cleverness or intuition selected the one thjff wil out-rival them all. i . order to escape the penalties of the law. Europe has raised a harvest of anarchists and criminals during her period of warfare. This har vest should be gathered on their own soil. The governments of Europe are preparing to’mete out justice in this regard and the I'nited States should place restric tions upon immigration in order that penalties may not be escaped and careers of crime transferred to oyr country.
