As taken from the Charleston American, which was twice excluded from the mails because of disloyal utterances, Cole L. Blease said in his Branwood speech: "The governor brags that he has five sons in the army. It is so. Yet all of them are strutting about in pretty uniforms and holding commissions and are in no more danger of meeting bullets than this electric light under which I stand." That the public may know the truth of the matter the following information as to the standing and whereabout of Gevernor Manning's sons is published; W. S. Manning is 23 years old. He enlisted as a private when the call | was made for soldiers to go to the border. He went to the border, served as private until the troops were ordered home. Upon the declaration of war with Germany he again enlisted as a private. Subsequently he went to a training camp and won a captain's commission. He is no\^ in active service on the front in France. Vivian Manning is 32 years old. He was a successful business man in Greenville. He closed up his business and volunteered as a private. He is still a private and is at Camp Taylor, Louisville, Kentucky. Bernard Manning is 29 years old. He enlisted as a private, and subsequently went through the training schoql at Oglethrope where he won a captain's commission. If he is not now on the seas or in France it will not be long before he will be on tu,. western front in active service. tit...jknm at Ifonninc ic 98 voare YY V JLiliXlCViXL I?l au ?v j v%??m old. He graduated from West Poiuv in 1913. He served in Alaska, and went to the border as captain of a company of cavalry raised in Charleston. When he returned from the border he was assigned as an instructor at Oglethrope and has been promoted to be major. He too if not on his way to the western front will not be long in going. Burwell Deas Manning is 19 years old. -He was at the University of Virginia when war was declared. He enlisted as a private. He is now a corporal and is in France. John Adger Manning is 18 years old. He too was at school but volunteered as a private and is now a sergeant at Camp Jackson. So soon as command is ordered to France he will go, and whether or not he has already gone is only for the authorities to know or say. ... i . Britain Destroyer Tanks. In a naval sense, the usual tanks or landships, whether they be British, French or German, have heretofore been of the battleship type, that is to say, they have been slow moving heavily armored and powerfully armed craft, meant rather to stand up and fight to a finish than to dash out of a combat and to depend on quickness of movement as the main weapon.^ ^ut in breaking up and pursuing iands of infantrymen yi the open there has been a distinct call for a destroyer type 01 tana?oue that could travel at a comparatively high rate of speed and that possessed a higher order of mobility in general. ... To the British, the originators of the tank idea, has remained the further honor of developing a tank of the fast, destroyer type. This type, known as whippet, has already made its apeparance on the battlefields in recent open fighting, and its debut has been crowned with success. The whippet has caterpillar treads of the usual design, arranged on either side of a sort of flat car is mounted a single turret which houses the crew and the several machine guns with which the whippet is armed. The flat car body measures eighteen feet in length, while the turret is six feet in height. The engine is placed at the rear of the gun turret in a separate armored housing. It appears that the whippet tank can readily make twelve miles an hour, and a fully equipped Teuton infantryman *can hardly hope to maintain that speed for a prolonged period. In These Days of War.

SPECIALISTS Will Be At MAYFLOWER INN SATURDAY, AUGUST 10th FOR ONE DAY ONLY. Wonderful Results?Marvelous Deni-' on*tration in Chronic Disease Cases by Their New System Treatment. OFFER SERVICE FREE OF CHARGE. Word has just been received that the Associated Doctors. sDecialists. licensed by the State of South Carolina, and who have met with such phenomenal success throughout the entire southeast, will be in Bamberg on Saturday, August 10th, for one day cnly to demonstrate their new system of treatment of chronic disease cases. This will indeed be good news to those who find it inconvenient to visit the central laboratories in Birmingham, located at Suite 311-12 Lyric Theatre Building, where the organization has Southern headquarter^. These regular, reputable physicians believe that the combined skill of several trained specialists in chronic diseases can accomplish more than one doctor alone?in other words, in unity there is strength. The offer to treat all who call on this visit absolutely free, is their original method of getting their system of treatment before the public quicker, and no one, rich or poor, white or colored, should neglect to take advantage of their very liberaloffer?ABSOLUTELY FREE (medicine excepted.) No cutting?No knife. It makes no difference how many doctors you have consulted or how many patent medicines you have taken, you can not afford to miss this opportunity of ascertaining ^our exact condition and be honestly advised. No one should require further evidence of the skill of these specialists, than the following letter recently re ceived from a well known Baptist minister: "I can't thank you enough, Doctor," said the Rev.

"I began suffering from general break-down November 28th, last, and appeared to go all to pieces; my stomach, kidneys, heart, blood and nerves went back oil me, and even though I consulted the best local doctors, they finally had to advise me that they could give me no cure, and for me to consult an expert specialist;. As soon as 1 noticed your announcement and learned from so many people of your cures, I came to your office. "I had indeed about lost hope, but today?even after taking your mar velous treatment for only this short, period, I am a new man; eat well,, sleep well and feel like a man in my prime. I want to thank you, and iy dear wife also wants to thank you, lor she is so proud of my improvement. I wish you to publish this statement so that others can benefit the same as I have.
