?fje pamberg peralb ESTABLISHED APRIL. 1891. Thursday, June 13,1918. During the war savings campaign, people will be asked to sign pledges to invest so much in war stamps, and in addition will be asked to agree to economize and save. If the spirit of the war savings proposition is entered into heartily, it will be the greatest thing in the way of thrift the world has even known. It has been estimated/that up to a few months ago the annual waste in food in this country, if utilized, would be enough to feed an army 01 twelve million men. The wastage has been greatly decreased within the past year, and yet there is still a great waste. There should not be a morsel of food wasted. The food situation is already critical, and will become worse as the war progresses. i?i A mighty lot of good gasoline is being burned uselessly these days. The day will no doubt come when gasoline will be sold only for commercial and industrial purposes, and while it may deprive automobile owners of some little pleasure, it will doubtless be a blessing. Under the present conditions, it would appear to be little short of criminal to indiscriminately use this necessary article in a perfectly useless manner. Pleasure rides can be dispensed with, and probably will have to be. hi m The fourth drive in the German offensive campaign begun in March is ? onil f via l-nitiol of _ UUW ill pi Ugl csa, auu iuo lutuui v? forts of the enemy apparently met with some success. The fact is not to be lost sight of, however, that this is a war of strategy. General Foch has never given to the public the slightest inkling of the allied plans, hut the people may place their confidence in the leaders on the front. The gain or loss of territory means neither victory for one nor defeat for the other, and we must look at the situation as a whole. Foch has shown on occasion that it has been part of the allied plans to give territory, where the price exacted was sufficiently heavy. However, there is no use to minimize the seriousness of the situation. It is serious, and will probably remain serious for some time to conje. The Germans will be defeated, of course; that much was settled more than a year ago. Even y . though they capture Paris; even though they envelop the whole of France in their meshes of frighful- 1 ness, they will be defeated nevertheless. But the nearer they get to ^ Paris, the longer the war will last. On August 3rd, 1917, the Yorkville fy:.- Enquirer, as reprinted by the Columbia State, reported a former governor of South Carolina, now a candidate for United States senator, as saying in a speech at Filbert, York county: "They talk about a free P America. I don't care what kind of an America it is when I am dead and gone. Neither does your hoy." On June 3rd, 1918, the Charleston American printed a speech made by the same man a few days prior at Hudson's Old Mill, Clarendon county, in which he is reported as saying: "They say I said there (at Filbert) we did \ not care what kind of America we had after we were dead and gone. They, knew they lied when they said it." The Yorkville Enquirer is a newspaper of veracity. We do not agree wit h its politics, but we do not believe' it would misquote anybody. The Enquirer is probably the most influential newspaper in the State which lends its support to the former governor. The former governor made a graVe blunder when he said he did not care what kind of America we have after he is dead and gone, but in so saying he served the people of the State in that he revealed to everybody, his friends included, his true character. He is now trying to get out of it, and it appears that he is willing to sacrifice one of his influential supporters in the attempt. What does the Enquirer have to say about it? Does the Enquirer stand for this kind of thing? If it does, we are much surprised, knowing as we dd the character of newspaper the Enquirer is. Browning Machine Guns. Enough heavy Browning machine guns for instruction purposes have been shipped to every National Guard * Jl A training camp ana i>atiuuai muiv cantonment in the country where troops are in training. Heavy Brownings for overseas training have been shipped. Light Browning rifles sufficient in number to equip the machine-gun units of more than four army divisions have been manufactured, and overseas shipment of one half has begun. The other half of the output goes to army divisions in this country. < > ? Flowers appear often on the crowns of hats. PERSONAL MENTION. People Yisiting in This City and at | Other Points. ?Prof. R.

Simmons, New Bridge St., Bamberg, says; "Several years ago my kidneys were in poor, weak and unhealthy condition for a long time. I suffered awfully. My back hurt me so badly that I would some-times have to press my hands upon ft to ease tihe pain. The action ol my kidneys wasn't right and my hands and ankles often, swelled, l always felt tired oui, depressed and miserable and aohed all over my body. This is the way 1/ was suffering when I started using Doan's Kidney Pills. I got them from Mack's Drug Store and they brought me relief from the start. In a short while, they rid me of all this trouble. Every time I hear anyone complain of their kidneys now I advise them to use Doan's Kidney Pills." Price 60c, at all dealers.
