They will be the best of coB lateral security far loans If such be desired, and altogether we do not know of a safer or more to be de sired investment than the Liberty bonds. * What are the Colleton farmer* going to do about thla thing?

T. Frasier In his speech Satur day night, have gone to Camp Jack son to 'enter 'tfainirrg for duty in this war. This is epoch-making. Freed only a little more than a gen eration ago, the negro has made wonderful advancement. The great United States Government has de- • -e cided that he is capable of service as a soldier of his country, aAd-^as called him to duty alongside, the white men of the nation. It will make no difference to Uncle Sam what color 6f skin the man has wtw> serves his country at this time of the nation’s sifpremest test.—so long as the' man can perform the service. If Ihe ■ negro makes good •in this test, there Is no telirng to what heights the race may then aspire. And we believe he will mnk.' good. The only trouble will be th** “turning” of 'his head by ail the wonderful things he will see jnd learn to do. If he can return after the war Is oyer 'god resume his place in the South, working with Increased efficiency, thus proving further his good citizenship, it will lie well for him and for the race that he is going. \ Wc believe he will ^do this. ^We trust, so at any rate. Hut. he must be patient and not try social or political equality upon bis return. That would undo ail the good his training will have given him. The right to vote will, we believe, ultimately be given the negro in the South, hut It will come wheh be has learned well the les sons of citizenship. He is going to school now, and it may take many years to achieve such results. Mr, J. P. K.
