By the flow of the inland river. Whence the fleets of iron have fled. Where the blades of the grave grass quiver, Asleep are the ranks of the dead; Under the sod and the dew, j Waiting the judgment day; | Under the one the blue, , Under the other the gray. These in the robings of glory, Those in the gloom of defeat, ■ All with the battle-blood gory, In the dusk of eternity meet; Under the sod and the dew, Waiting the judgment day Under the laurel, the blue; Under the willow, the gray. “Buzz” Purcell, student at the Citadel, Charleston, arrived in the city Monday to visit (his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E.

RITZ THURSDAY & FRIDAY Pierre Aumont & Susan Peters —IN— “ASSIGNMENT IN BRITTANY” From the silence of sorrowful hours The desolate mourners go, Lovingly laden with flowers Alike for the friend and the foe; Under the sod and the dew. Waiting the judgment day; Under the roses, the blue; Under the lillies, the gray. So with an equal splendor The morning sun rays fall. With a touch, impartially tender, On the blossoms blooming for all; Under the sod and the dtew, Waiting the judgment day; Broidered with gold, the blue; Mellowed with gold, the gray. So,when the summer calleth On forest and field of grain, With an equal murmer falleth The cooling drip of the rain; Under the sod and the dew. Waiting the judgment day; Wet with the rain, the blue, Wet with the rain, the gray.

Too many unprogressive farmers like to sing: “What Was Good For Paul and Silas is Good Enough For Me.” Inferior products in a shipment of quality products usually cost the shipper many times their value. “I’m losing ground,” said Mr. Careless Farmer as he saw heavy rains falling on his unterraced, un contoured fields. Nobody puts in a longer day for rural progress than the editor of the .progressive country weekly news paper.

COUNTS With 18 million or more Victory Gardens, many a homemaker will have homegrown tomatoes, berries and other garden food for summer meals, and now and again some for canning. In local markets, also, there may be at times some fruit or vegetable sufficiently abundant, fresh and reasonable to attract homemak ers on the lookout for food to put up. This year especially it’s well worthwhile to put up even three or four jarsi at a time, always provided you have the right equipment for canning. On the basis of blue ration stamps needed for commercially canned foods, every jar of home can ned food represents a saving in ra tion points, besides all the other ad vantages of storing up summertime food for winter. It is also most important that the right methods are used so as to re duce spoilage to a minimum. A can ning bulletin written especially for South Carolina is available to you now by asking at the office of the Home Demonstration agent. You can also gei: a pamphlet on brining and methods of making sauer kraut. It is yours for the asking. The Extension service is very an xious to serve you in every way pos sible and we will be glad to have you call- on us at any time. The Home Demonstration Agent can usually be found in 'the office in the mornings. The afternoons are given over to meetings in the various sections of the county. The parting word is.—watch your garden for insects. They can do an irreparable damage in a very short time. Be on the alert for the bean beetle, potato bug, and squash bug. FURMAN REAGIN OUT AGAIN The friends of Furman Reagin will be glad to learn that he is able to be j out again and back at his place of ' business after being ill at his home j on Glenn street for the past two ! weeks. with their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Tolbert. , Miss Mary Johnson is spending this weekend at Myrtle Beach with friends. Mrs. George Epps and Miss Lucy Eppsi are visiting relatives in Atlanta Ga. TIN CAN DAY This Friday, June 4 will be tin can day for Ward No. 1. Housewives ard asked to please put out their cans on the curb by 9 o’clock so that the city trucks can collect them. Sunday Scouting I went Sunday morning to the beauty of the Oriental Iris in the Wells’ gardens from the Lindsy street entrance, but to try (to describe such flowers is useless. You are welcome to go any Sunday morning while they are in bloom; you’ll get as much out of it spiritually as you will Sunday school, mayby more. I then used an extra pint of gaso line to see Homer Sdhumpert’s grounds and flowers at the water plant. As we have said before Homer has done a remarkable job on these grounds but we do wish he would quit trimming his shubbery (to look like a Hill-billy’s hair cut Homer has some theory about trimming it high, I don’t remember just what, but is probably utilitarian. The park grounds at the swimming pool looks neglicted. The grass needs cutting and 'the effects of the “fine Italian hand” of Mrs. Mamie Summer is conspiculusly absent. O. F. A.
