Now that the "force" is recovering
from their recent attack of the
"flu," we will try to give our readers
the paper they are accustomed to
read. We can bear ample testimony
to the fact that the influenza is no
joke?and at that we had what is
generally termed a "mild case," although
wS are about persuaded there
is no' such animal as a mild case of
the "flu."
On account of the fact that The
Herald missed the issue of NovemV
ber 21, no subscriptions will be discontinued
this week. All subscriptions
paid to December 1 should have
^been taken off 'the lists this week, unless
renewed, but' these subscribers
K*
will receive this issue. If renewals
are not in hand by \next Wednesday,
all those expiring December 1 will be
taken off. The Herald is now stricty
ly cash in advance, in accordance
w^th instructions from the government,
and our subscribers will' gov
era themselves accordingly.
< The attitude of Bishop Russell, of
Charleston, was certainly very unex:
f : emplary. This Catholic dignitary,
the highest Catholic official in the
State, defied the State board of health
- and held services in his church dur
-V - i
? . ing the quarantine. Of course, being
a high functionary in the Catholic
church, nothing was done about
it. We fail to see any reason why a
bishop in the Catholic church, or the
pastor of a Baptist, Methodist or any
other church, should not be required
to observe laws and board of health
regulations the same as other people.

If this had been, however, a "twoby-four"
preacher, he would not have
m gotten off with it.
There seems to have been quite a
bit of confusion in regard to the home
coming of the thirtieth division,
. which includes many of our Bam1
berg county boys. It was first an
^ -v
nounced that the thirtieth was coming
home right away; then the report
was corrected from Washington,
saying that no such instructions had
been issued, and that the thirtieth
was still engaged with General Pershing
in Europe. We will be glad
to welcome the thirtieth back home.
This division made a great war record
for itself, and covered the State
with glory in the mighty exploits
made on the field of battle. The division
is reported as having lost over
eleven hundred men in killed, which
is an unusually heavy mortality rate.
Of all the whining we ever heard
of, the German people are doing it
now. They say they will starve; but
nothing was heard from them when
tney were starving ana niuruermg
the people of Belgium and France by
the thousands and even tens of thousands.
When they first violated the
Belgian country, the Germans confiscated
all the money and about all
the food in the country, and for a

BER'S,
| long time would not even permit neu!
tral nations to feed the starving and
! freezing people. Of course, we pre|
sume, the Germans will be fed; but
1 they do not deserve a morsel; and we
certainly hope that not a mouthful
of food will go across the German
border until every inhabitant of Belgium
and France and other devastated
nations have been fed. As a
| matter of fact, we do not believe
i they are starving anyway. They
should be in better condition now
than when the war was going on.
The German nation has never been
invaded, #nd it has fed nobody but
its own people. All of the allied naI
tions have been sharing their food
| with the starving people of Europe
I ever since the German dogs allowed
! them to get food. We don't think
i this is the time to waste sympathy
I on these murderers and cut throats.
If they get no food at all from outside
they will not be in half as bad
condition as the people they ravaged
and murdered and plundered for four
years. 1

Letter from J. G. Hutto.
Nov. 11.?Dear sister: It has
been a long time since I have written
you a letter but it was not because
I did not think about you. I just
did not have time to write all.
I am in t^hospital yet, but feeling
good. I will be all o. k. in a few
days.
I wrote a letter to Laurie yesterday.
I have not been able to hear a word
from William yet. I may have some
mail from him when I get back to
my company. I have not heard anything
from home but one letter since
I have been over here, and it was
mailed the same week I left.
Well, I am sure glad that peace.has
been agreed upon. I have been over
the top twice. Two big battles, some
i exciting time. I wish I could write
; about it, , but will wait and tell you
| all about it when I get home. I don't
I think it will ffe very long now if they
I get everything settled o. k.
| I will write Gussie a letter in a
I day or so. If she is not at home the
folks can forward it to her.
You all had better have plenty to
eat when I get there for all I am go!
ing to do is to go from one to the
| other and eat for a while.
Well, it is about supper time now.
; With lots of love to all, your devoted
brother, JOHN G. HUTTO,
* Co. D, 18th Inf., A. E. F.
From William (Hill) Hutto.
France, Nov. 5, 1918.?Dear Pau:
line: Yours and Glenn's letters came
: a few days ago, and you can bet they
j were appreciated. I have not heard
I a word from Grimes in over a month,
! but am expecting to hear from him
most any time. I am well and getting
on fine. I saw Henry Murray
Ray yesterday. He is just as lively
i as ever. Wilbur Cone and Luke Bell|
inger are both in the hospital. Wilbur
! has influenza and Luke is wounded,
j How is Walter and Klugh. None
, of you ever mention anytning aoout
j them.
Will close as there isn't anything
! to write. With love to all, your de:
voted brother, /BILL.
