- Greenville Daily News. -
It will shane the people of many com
munities in this state - and Greenville is
one of them-to learn in what handsome
- manner "the lndependentt State of Pick
enp" sent off its first contribution to
the national army. A good many cities
did not formally honor the drafted men
who went out from them to answer the
call to the colors--even in Greenville no
attention was shown these men, save
by the Exemption Board.
Pickens, on the other hand, displayed
in no small way its appreciation of the
service and devotion of its young men
drawn from civil life to defend and
maintain the nation. A meeting was
held at the court house at which several
hundred citizens were present in addi
tion to the drafted men. Two of the
mopt distinguished membersof the South !
Carolina bar, Judge Joseph A. McCul
lough of Greenville and James P. Carey,
Sr., of Pickens, delivered practical, sen
sible and stirring addresses on the na-!
tional situation and the duty of Ameri
can manhood. These deliverances must
have encouraged and stimulated the
young men about to leave their homes,
1 for the great adventure. E. P. McCra
vey, chairman of the county exemption
board, make another inspiring address
y along similar lines. After the exer
cises the young soldiers were presented
with well-filled comfort bags by the
s women of the Women's Christian Tem
perance union, while the men of the
town, not to be outdone by the women,
.r gave each of the young men a safety
' razor. Following that, the Red Cross
d chapter served a delightful supper for
the boys who are now eating their first
te war rations.
>e All this was deeply appreciated. It
1e certainly must have encouraged the
young men and made them feel that
those back in old Pickens have interest
Iir anl faith in them in their new sphere
n. of action. Every community in the
'x state ought to have done the same thing
and there are still lots of men to go
on later dates. The News (lOubts if,any
other municipality in South' Carolina
Cd showed their drafted men a.s much at
ro tention in proor !0ot to ablity as did

I MITCHELL WAGON!
We would advise anyone who will need .a wagon
" any time within the next two or three years to buy
some good make at once.
With 'timber, iron and steel, paint and everything
? that goes into a wagon about 100 per cent. higher in
? price, you can readily see that wagons are bound to
be much higher.
? We recommend the Mitchell Wagon to you for the
reason that we have sold them for over fifteen years,
and have yet to find a dissatisfied customer. They
" may cost a fraction more than other makes of wag
ons, but they will wear longer and save you quite an
item in repairs.
We have a full stock in all sizes, and the prices are
+ very little higher than in former years.
If you are in doubt as to which wagon to buy,
just ask the man who owns a Mitchell, or your local
blacksmith. ' +
