WK ARK AT WAR Yes. at War—W-A-R—WAR Real. destructive, death-dealing, property-destroying and ' horrible, hut glorious, purposeful and. bril liant. W> do not believe we are ct war, but It Is true, nevertheless. Colleton folks are most. Indilfer ent as i whole. They seem ftot to care;—to be unconcerned and utterly unpatriotic. . . . No appeal, to their patriotism seems to stir them. Talk to a man about some work he can do for hla country at home, and hp will loo* at you *n amaaement aa if to say: “What, you expect me to neglect ly business to do something for my country? Humph! I have too much to do.” '“Subscribe for a Liberty Rond? Why. 1 need my money more than the Government does!” “Help in Food Campaign? Ran. get someone else, I am too busy, l can’t spere. tbe time,” So R is. But there art* a few', who. like the monks of the Dark Ages, are helping to keep the lire* of patriotism burning. To them the people musf look for the per formance of public duty. N’o. it> is not real lack of patriot ism, but it. is selfishness and lack of interest, brought about by ,ignor- an»e 0 f two kinds, ignorance of th causes -of the war and Ignorance of the need for unity of action.
