The hearts that ached as you left us are now over flowing with joy that you have returned. The thunder of the guns has been silenced--the quiet of Peace has decended like a benediction on the martyred field of France--and our boys are safe at horpie agian. You mothers, you sisters, you wives and sweethearts who have . waited and feared and wondered if your boy would ever come back who have prayed for him in the quiet night hours, have tramped ~wih him in spirit on weary marches, stood with him in the rain and mu of the trenches and suffered with him on his hospital cot-what must be your joy to-day, for he has come back to you. The clouds have broken, the shadows have passed; the pure sweet light of Peace is bathing the world as on Resurrection morn. We have been delayed in opening our store on account of not receiving our fixtures but are glad to announce that they have at last arrived and are being installed and we shall be Open and Ready for Business by Saturday, April 12th. We are ready to out-fit you now and invite you to call on us for those Citizen's Clothes. Wharton Clothing Company CASH CLOTHIERS "SUITS ME" LAURENS, S. C.
