RENEWAL OF FIGHTING

Ifc. i i 1
Nearly three weeks have passed
since the German offensive begun on
March 21, died down at its final ac~
tive point in futile assaults on the
Flanders front. Every indication, how
ever, points to the probability that
the coming week will witness its renewal.
" The entente allied staffs, so far as
their opinion can be learned, appearconvinced
that the enemy has about
completed his reorganization and re-1
adjustment of forces and that he is I
only awaiting weather suitable to his
purpose to strike his new blow.
Fair weather is reported from the
battle front, but apparently this is
not to the German's liking. It is recalled
that he was materially aided in
bis drive from St. Quentin in March
by the foggy, misty conditions prevailing,
during which the enemy
masses could be moved to the point
sheeted for the heaviest stroke without
coming under allied aerial obscvvrvtion.
It may therefore, be the eneir.y's
purpose to await similar condi
it*.- s before essaying his second
jjii at push.
German Public Prepared., \m
i German public opinion is being prepared
by Chancellor von Hertling and
others, for the imminence of renewed
heavy fighting. On the allied side con

CONWAY
DON'T FORGET THE DA
(allies have received notable reinforcements
from the' United States, which
day by day is increasing the number
of its men on the Franco-Belgian
front.
The total mileage of front held by
American troops, indeed, is revealed
to be the third greatest, the French
standing-first, the British second and
the Americans exceeding the Belgian
total. y* ' * '
While the rival forces are thus
poised for the clash in the West, important
developments appear to be
impending in the Far East. German
aggression in Russia has reached a
point where the entente press is
clamoring for counter measures, and
some action of this nature is apparently
about to be taken, at least as
far as the safety of the peace of the
bar East and probably of Siberian int.Pirritv
onr\nr*\'v\c\il
China and Japan Act.
The action, it is understood is to
be confined for the present to China
and Japan who, with entente assent
are to cooperate in protecting Manchuria,
with the possibility that the
operations may be extended into Siberia
as a more effective defensive
measure.
The bringing of the conscription
question to a head seems likely to
result from the government's action
and with it may come the solution of
the problem as to how far Ireland
may be counted upon to swell the
P.ritish man power for the fight
against Germany either voluntarily
or otherwise.
FRENCH EXPECT
MANY AMERICANS
Washington With more than 500,000
men now in France army officials
are more than ever hopeful that
a powerful American force will be
cooperating with the allies there by
the end of the year. Unhappy experience
with over sanguine estimates of
what can be accomnlished make
them slow to put their hopes into definite
predictions, however, and it was
not possible to obtain specific confirmation
of the report from P&ris
that 1,500,000 fighting troops before
January 1 had been promised.
The statement of Premier Clemenccau'r;
newspaper that such a promise
had been made was not believed by
army ol'ficters generally to mean that

No Comment Made.
Secretary Baker would make yit^
comment on the stateme
weeks ago he told the senate military
committee, however, that the governiment
then-, had hopes of getting -1 It
500,000 to the front during the yearj
Since then his. estimate that 500,000^
would" reath Stanch early in the year
has been fulfilled.
The French article indicates that
under the prgram a total of 2,000.000
American troops would reach'
France during the year, 1,500,000 of
which would be fighting units. Whe'Ji
: cr that i*esult can be obtained doI
pends on the shipping situation. The
men and the essential equipment for
them can be ready.
Under the authority sought by
President Wilson to organize as
large an army as it is found possilbe
to train, equip and transport it is
known that officials expect 2,000,000
to be under arms during the next 12
months. Many believe that even a
larger force can be handled as it now
appears quite probable that a total of
4,000,000 during the year will be near
er the mark.
Question of Command.
Secretary pakor explainer oduy
his view as to what the new pra^uce
of brigading American units with
French and British divisions and the
appointment of General Foch as supreme
commander might bring about
in the way of producing mixed army
corps or divisions. It is entirely pos
sible, ho said, that American division
or higher commanders will have command
of French or British troops or
both under the movements ordered by
General Foch.
Where mixed divisions or corps are
constituted and American troops predominate,
Mr. Baker regarded it a.?
probable that an American will eon<mand
if one of adequate rank an 1
experience is available.

The following letter has been receivecj
from Clemson College:
"Our records show that one fouryear
scholarship to Clemson College
will be vacant this summer for Horry
County. The state law requires that
the competitive examination for the
award of scholarships and for the entrance
to the freshman class to be
held on July 12, beginning at nine
o'clock.
It is desired that these scholarships
go to worthy and deserving boys. The
demand for college trained men is
far greater than the supply.
A scholarship student may also receive
aid from the United States Gov
ernment. Such a student would be
| enabled to secure an education at
very little expense.
The scholarships in tho one-year ag
ricultural course will be open this
year as usual." f ,>{ ,3

handles his subject with ability. You
will note especially wtiat he says upon
the subject of teaching foreign languages
in our rural schools. This is
exactly In keeping with the policy of
the County Board of Education towards
our schools dlirintr
?. ? - >>>f) ???v
year. We found Latin nnd French
'
being taught in a few .of our schools
and succeeded in most cases in eliminating
them without much friction.
In South Carolina 25 per cent, of
our people can neither read nor write
Another 25 per cent, can barely read
and write; 75 per cent, never got beyond
the fifth grade; 43 per cent, are
on rented land and 20 per cent, are in
cotton mills. Is our educational system
meeting the needs of our poople?
Let the above facts answer.
What is the remedy? Begin' with
what the people know and with the
occupations they are engaged in and
develop along practical lines. This
State is agricultural and must forever
remain so. But our present educa
tional thought is not helping the
farmer as it should. Our teachers do
not know how to teach agriculture,;
and the teachers do not know because j
the colleges are not training them.
Every college in this State would
serve the interests of the people by
giving a course in chemistry of soils
and another in the physics of soils.
Then every college for the education
of women should offer courses in
cooking, sewing and practical agriculture.
Besides all this, there is no
loom for any foreign language
in our rural schools. Where such
teaching is attempted it is poorly
done and but little is accomplished.
The time thus spent had
better be devoted to the 75 per
cent, who never get beyond the
fifth grade.
Let the colleges require for instance,
a thorough preparation in
English, history and mathematics.
Then begin the foreign language in
the freshman class and require three
years instead of two. Graduates
would know more languages than under
the present system. With the
languages out q? the way, more prac- '
tical science could be taught in the
common schools.
