FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1920 weather report For S. C. Showers probably tonight and Saturday. Moderate winds southwest. If all the various remedies suggested to improve the ills of the body politic were all applied the patient would, die. \ There will be many coming and going on the Fourth. This means that it will be well to drive carefully. Reckless driving on such days often'leads to shocking accidents. "Subscribers to the capital stock of the Business Woman's Club have been notified to meet at 6:30 o'clock p. m. , today in the rooms of the Union Chamber bf Commerce. It is proposed to organize the concern at this meeting. It is not yet too late for the farmers to put in a few extra acres of corn. Unless all signs fail, com is going to be a valuable thing to have, and the farmer caught without com is going to have a hard time supplying his needs. Union has s^nt several sick babies to the Baby Camp at Saluda where they received treatment free. The $*21 that we ha^e collected and are today forwarding t0 the proper authorities is about enough to pay for one baby one week. If you wish to contribute to'this fund, hand the contribution in today-or tomorrow. There will be no canvassing. Our cat says watch the motives of the man with a hammer. SAVE OUR BABIES The fund has amounted to $21.00 and stopped right there. Not a penny came in today for the sick babies. Too bad! The Times will continue the campaign until Saturday when the last call will be made; if you do not feel any interest, it must be that you have never seen a little sick baby. The poor little fellows must have a chance won't you help give it to them ? They cannot help themselves and it is up to us. Two more days and we will not trouble you again for our fund to help make baby well. WHO WAS STUART? 4 The Piedmont feels it both a pleas- I ure and duty to publish the follow- I ins: letter: To the Editor of The Piedmont, ' Dear Sir: The Literary Digest this week carries an article concerning prominent characters in our nation's life whose names have been proposed for places in the Hall of Fame. This article is taken from the New York Times, which paper in j devoting a few lines relative to each of the characters says of Gen. J. E. B. Stuart, whose name is mentioned: "J. E. B. Stuart, General in Confederate Army, commanded a body of Confederate Cavalry and was mortally wounded at Yellow Tavern May, 1864." So! Now wouldn't it be wise for this member of the Times' staff who is telling the people of the nation "Who's Who," relative to the names proposed for " the Hall of Fame, to read a little ' history himself in order that he might be better fitted for sitting at the feet of some well-bred school child who has been reared in an American rather than a Partisan home, and in this manner himself learn who's who? James Ewell Brown Stuart, com- , mander of the Marines, who captured old John Brown at Harper's * Ferry; Brig. Gen., Major Gen., Lieut. Gen., in command of all the cavalry of the Confederacy and one oi the best known characters in all history, is thus dismissed with a couple of lines by this ignoramus on the staff of the Times. No mention is made of the wonderfully dashing, brilliant ride around McClellan's Army with a loss of but one man, nor is anything said of the time when tys repeated this performance, nor when a year later, he raided as far as Chanibersburg, Pa., and covered 160 miles in 24 hours without the loss of a single man and the wounding of but two and yet bringing back with him hundreds of beeves and thousands of horses for the Confederate States artillery and cavalry. Handsome, laughing, fighting, "Jeb" Stuart! How our minds like to draw the picture of this cavalier, of this modern Rupert, as, in his little fighting jacket he rides at the head of his' dashing, fearless- squadrons, spreading dismay on all sides from the very magic of his name. Equally at home, with cavalry, infantry or artillery we find him. Now dashing into Pope's headquarters and bringing back his coat, hat and even confidential correspondence with Washington, now sending word to General Jackson that he would go ahead "crowding 'em with artillery." or at the head of this fallen general's battallions at Chambersvile he charged triple lines of breastworks, his golden voice ringing above the cannon's roar as he sang "Old Joe Hooker, won't you come out of the Wilderness"? A peerless leader, brave cavalryman and one in whose hands, even with half as many numbers, his enemies would have been but as toys, had Providence seen fit; beloved by men, women and children, a modprn.Hnv lfntirhL fr#?ntlo sk h child ""fn->-? o ?? " and as bravo as. a lion was this Cavallfer of the'Swouth tflkb'. flied without fear and without reproach as he led, that fateful day at Yellow Tavern, "a body of Conferedate Cavalry." Yours very truly, W. Lindsay Wilson. Greenville. Thus briefly but justly and eloquently Mr. Wilson portrays one of the great cavalry leaders of all times ?"Stuart is the best cavalry officer ever foaled in North America!" was the rude appraisement of his old commander arlfd later opponent on the Union side, General Sedgwick. Both Lee and Jackson held him in the highest esteem and had supreme confidence in his ability. Most jovial of cavaliers, his character was such that General Lee said of him, in announcing his death to the army, "To military capacity of high order and to the nobler virtues of the soldier he added the brighter graces of a pure life, guided and sustained by the Christian's faith and hope." Although he had attained the rank of lieutenant-general and by the genius oi nis -leaciersnip nau nnKca nis name with those of Lee and Jackson, Stuart was just thirty-one years old when he died. Even in the South, however, Stuart's admirable life and brilliant career are too little known. Scores of Southern editors and numberless Southern school pupils and college students are hardly better informed as to him than the Times scribe. Every young Southerner in the course of his education ought to be directed to read "Mohun," John Esten Cooke's famous historical novel, with its inspiring picture of this immortal cavalier.?Piedmont. ? ^ m NOTICE A regular convocation, of Poinsett "J Chapter No. 16, R.
