Tatings We Should Ever Remember. .' i... - (Richard H. Edmonds, Editor Man . ufacturers Record, Baltimore.) . We should remember that we are not engaged in war as wars have been Known in the past. . This War bears no resemblance tc *Jfe Revolutionary War, to the war of J812, to the Civil War or the Spanish War. It is not a war in the sense! i that 'they were wars. They were rtfes tor great principles, waged by civilized human beings. w tn Europe we are fighting not a war as wars have been known. We are as- a community trying to stop a gang of assassins, - of cutthroats, of rapists and rooters from carrying into effect the. destruction which for half a century they had been planning. We are not fighting soldiers as sol diejrs; 'we are trying to overcome a of assassins. and rapists who started-out to destroy civilization and : e?hquer our community and all the ?worm lh order to murder, to enslave and to loot all other people. :"N?*ver- let us for one moment think of Germany and of its armies from any other point of view, because unless we see the situation in tfee true H&ht we shall riot fully understand that' peace with an uncrushed Ger many would be peace with a gang of riturderers and outragers and rob oerfi,: and. would be a disgrace to all cl^liz?tion. Does a, community which has been attacked _hy a gang of murderers and J^ptei?^and rapists accept their offer of peace terms in order not to punish me> criminals and not to make the r lamilie's of these criminals suffer? Does r a community when it has caught the red-handed murderer or ff?.' -'r?jhst. say, ''"We must not punish him "because his wife and children wTc&^siiffer?" |&es. a .community when its police men and its citizens summoned to their help have been done to death by a g^n|? of cutthroats and robbers ac cept-from- these criminals an offer of tteac^^vided they, return a part of t^- lo^i.-le'aving' them free to wreak tu$rr vengeance, upon the same com n^iiityi la the future, and count the . mer^;,shbwn merely as pusillanimous, ?n^irjC^c^sentimentalism or as plain on^andjce,; lacking moral courage to pnifjsit the evil-doer?

Neill 0'Donnell: \. Harby, L C. Strauss, C. G. and H. J. McLaurin, Jr., as _ ites to the Conference on South Development and Trade Expan sion e*the Gulf and Atlantic States. to .be: held at the Atlanta Chamber of ^Cfo^hierce, at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning, October 22nd. AttV-he instance of Gov. Hugh M 'Dorsey, of Georgia, the Southern Commercial Congress has called this conference because it is believed that the war has brought about condi tions which offer a favorable oppor tunity for direct trade between the South and West Indies, South Amer ica, and other countries. This matter took shape several months ago in Washington at a ban quet tendered by the Southern Com mercial Congress to Gov. Dorsey and the committee on the St. Mary's Ca nal project, of which Gov. Dorsey is the author. The construction of the St. Marys Canal would shorten the rente from Gulf to Atlantic ports by 450 miles and wouldv overcome ob stacles which the Gulf stream offers to the export of grain through Gulf ports to Europe. Gov. Dorsey thinks the time has come to push this project to consummation. Where to Go. "To whom shall I go to get advice on bow to succeed in life?"

Wilmington Star, Oct. 17. The epidemic of influenza that now exists in practically every State in the union, especially those east of the Mississippi river, has brought forth many formulae for treatmc.it of the disease, the latest being received yes terday by Mayor P. Q. Moore in a telegram from Maj. Earl B. Brown, of Washington, /. C., and is as fol lows: "Owing to the need of doctors and nurses and for the benefit of suffer ing, humanity, please publish in your daily papers and elsewhere, the fol lowing for pneumonia taken from the Washington Star: ** 'Saturate with alcohol a ball of common cotton the size of a one inch marble; add three drops of chlo roform to each ball of cotton; place! between patient's teeth and let him inhale the fumes for 15 minutes. Then rest 15 minutes or longer if needed, and inhale again for 15 minutes and ! repeat this operation as directed 2 4 times, changing cotton twice every 15 minutes.' "As a result the lungs of the pa tient will expand to normal. In 24 hours the patient will be out of dan ger. "For those in the last stages use a lamp or any heating apparatus with a porcelain cup as a container. Make a one-inch cover for the cup, bore a hole in the" middle and insert a half inch tube to reach patient's mouth. Boil the alcohol, no chloroform be ing needed in this method. Let the patient take the tube in the mouth and inhale the alcohol fumes and fol low as directed." This telegram was signed by An nie Thomson Brown and Earl B. Brown. It will be remembered that Major Brown was at one time in charge of the United States engineers office in this city Mrs. Brown, be fore marriage was Miss Annie Thom son, of Southport, both being well known in this city.

THE RELIEF C03fMITTEE. Report of Work Being Done by Civic League Relief Committee. It is fitting that the Sumter people should know who the Florence Night ingales among them are. Here are some of those who are risking their health and comfort to administer to the sick in the city: Miss E. W. McLean, Miss L. C. McLaurin, Miss Katherine Moses, Miss Cora Ander son, Miss Mary McCauley, Miss Char lie Cassell, Miss Elizabeth McNabb, Miss Florence Obenschain and Miss F. Miller of the city schools; Miss Alice Martin, assistant home demon strator; Mrs. J. B. Ryan, Jr., and Miss Bess Ryan of Wedgefield; Miss Cor nelia McLaurin, Mrs. Nina Solomons Mrs. R. L. Edmunds, Mrs. Alex Dick Mrs. Allen Baker, Miss Hassie Par rott. Mrts. T. D. McMahon, Mrs. C. H. Barnum. Mrs. C. L. Tisdale, Miss Naida McK&in, Mrs. C. D. Des Cham ps, Miss Theo Gregg, Miss Al pha Barnum, and Dr. Bragg An thony, supervisor of colored schools. C. C. Moore has today offer ed the services of-his daughters and they will be placed at once. There is an imperative need for more workers however, for these need some hours off for rest and they are not getting it. There are probably many others in town who are helping nurse their neighbors but whose names have not been reported to us. The committee earnestly begs that those who have the services of train- j ed nurses in their homes release: them.as soon as possible. One should1 not keep a nurse just to be a comfort; or to help run the house. Where a nurse is released we can send an in experienced helper. The pneumonia cases are the ones that need the trained experienced nursing, and the conscience of one who unecessarily detains a nurse will not feel easy when he learns of pneumoia pa tients dying for lack of nurses. The assistance given us in the way of nourishment is very gratifying and j we are sending all that is offered! where it is most need. Space does not; permit that all their names be men tioned. Some financial assistance has also been forthcoming and we ac knowledge -with thanks the following contributions: Mrs. Harvin Des Champs $5.00; Mr. Perry Moses. $5. Those who will furnish nourishment will please notify Mrs. Ansley D. Harby, phone No. 947 or Mrs. Ferd Levi, phone No. 265. Those who wish to offer their ser vices for nursing will please notify Mrs. Horace Harby, phone No. 721 or Miss Armida Moses, phone No. 103.

Oct. 16.?Siber- j ian wheat gr^.vn in Alaska may soon be milled in Fairbanks. Thomas Riggs, Jr., governor of Alaska, re cently conferred with the officials of the United States Agricultural Ex periment Station here regarding the establishment of a mill to grind the crops of Siberian wheat interior Alaska is expected to yield during the seasons to come. Two hundred and fifty bushels of I Siberian wheat from the Fairbanks region were sent to the States a short time ago for a test run in a flour mill. A definite conclusion regarding the mill will be based on the outcome j of the tests. If the wheat meets the expectation hejd regarding it, the mill will be built and Alaska farmers will plant Siberian wheat extensively next year. Siberian wheat matures in the com-j parativeiy brief period of about fourj months from the time the se-?d is put into the ground. This quic Towthl makes the wheat adaptab" to the I Alaska short summers. According to j reports from Siberia, the home of the Siberian wheat, it mills into good flour.
