In the fiery cru cible of burning- Cleveland school was refined much pure gold of heroism and as the dreadful ashes of recollec tion are searched, these precious nug gets are salvaged for a community heritage. Together they set up a tra dition of gallantry, unafraid and self less, which in the years may some what soften and* surely will ennoble the grief that must persist. Compar isons would be odious indeed in such an honorable company, but at the least to be mentioned among those who kept a cool head and a stout heart is Eugene Pearce. Survivors said tonight that young Pearce, '2(?, a NVofford graduate, and farm manager for his father, B. M. Pearce. Si-., was among the instantly active in rescue work and labored ef fectually. Forcing a sash, he cleared space about a window, the story runs, and through it passed one by one, perhaps a score of those trapped in the second floor auditorium; while eager volunteers beneath laid auto mobile cushions to break the force of the drop, held out .steadying hands and kept the way clear for a success ion of the rescued. Last to be saved by Mr. Pearce was Miss Elizabeth Yarbrough, of Low ryville, daughter of a Baptist minis ter and principal of the Camden Mill School. Miss Yarbrough, it is said, had fainted, but Mr. Pearce contrived to make his way to her and regaining his w indow sprang with her to safety. Among those who perished was Eu gene Pearce 's brother, Jesse E. Pearce; and who knows but he was among those who having won to se curity. plunged back to succor wo men and children?

It was upon this suggestion that the governor act ed in issuing a general appeal for con tributions from the nation, The governor's statement follows: "In view of the statement of the Red Cross advisory committee at Camden that previous estimates of money needed for relief work have been greatly underestimated, I call upon the. people of the country to con tribute to the relief of the stricken people of the Cleveland school com munity in Kershaw county. Contri butions will be acceptable from people in any section of the United States. All funds are to be disbursed by the American National lied Cross and contributions should hi* S4i.nt direct to the Red Cross relief committee of Camden. T^e people of South Caro lina are responding nobly to the calls for relict and as the chief executive of the state I desire to express to them my appreciation and for the people of Cleveland community, their gratitude.
