EYES FRONT!
In the following brief editorial The
State drives straight at the heart of
the matter. God grant in this trying
hour that "the people of South Caro
lina will not lose sight of the main
issue."
" 4 'Mid this tumult' " the people of
South Carolina will not lose sight of
the main issue, to send to Washington
a senator who was not doubtful
of the righteousness of the American
cause, who was and is in hearty
agreement with President Wilson and
the majority in Congress and who,
for those reasons, can be depended
upon to sustain the President in his
leadership.
"The Democratic voters of South
Carolina who belong to no faction,
who are the overwhelming majority,
will have no difficulty in choosing a
man to fill the bill?a man in whose
utterances about the war there is
nothing to defend and nothing to explain,
against whose course has been
set no question mark!
"The voters will not lose sight of
the main issue."
THE LOYALTY OF THE SOUTH
There are so many evidences and
examples of the loyalty of the whole
nation at this crisis in our national
life that every patriotic heart has
cause to rejoice.
That the South is heart and "soul
in this war is evidenced by the reSDonces
that came from the call of
the Red Cross. Here, for instance,
is a little town in Georgia the quota
of which was $500.00 But that little
town, with the big name of Boston,
raised for the' Red Cross $2,180.80.
From Mississippi comes this cheering
note of the fervent patriotism. A
meeting was held at Aberdeen by
the Confederate veterans,, forming
"The First Mississippi Confederate
Company." Here is a copy of the
resolution adopted:
At a meeting of the Confederati
veterans of Monroe County it wasresolved
that they offer their services
to President Wilson and the
United States Government and ask
him to use them in any way that he
saw fit in order that they might helj:
win the war.
In forwarding this resolution tc
Congressman Candler, of Mississippi
the following letter was sent wit!
the list of names of the veterans:
"Herewith please find a list of the
members of the "First Mississippi
Confederate Company," which corn
pany, as you will observe, is made uj
of old Confederate veterans of Mon
roe County, Miss. They are the mer
who in days gone by wore the gray
but now they want to don khaki.
"They are offering themselves t<
the President, to be used in any ca
paeity in which he may direct, foi
the purpose of winning this war."
Mr. Candler made a fervent, pa
triotic speech in reference to this
matter from which we make this ex
tract:
"When I look at our surroundingf
as they arc today, when the hoy
from the North and the boys from
the South, the East, and the Wesl
are all gathering together to brinj;
about the great victory which if
ahead of us; when I see our beloved
Woodrow Wilson; our honored Vice
President, Thomas R. Marshall; our
great speaker, Champ Clark; our
splendid leader on the Democratic
side. Claude Kitchin: and our ironial
leader on the Republican side, Frederick
H. Gillett, standing shoulder to
Bhoulder and heart to heart, backed
UP by all the membership of this
House, pressing forward in one solid
phalanx to aid in every possible way
to secure decisive victory so greatly
desired, I feel and 1 know that triumphant
victory is coming and that it
will be ours."
WOMAN'S PART IN THE WAR
In this time of peril the Women of
America are everywhere doing a noble
part. In Red Cross work in cities,
towns and villages the noble women
all over the land are not merely "doing
their bit" but are doing their
best. The preparation of bandages,
surgical dressings, knitting socks,
sweaters, and hospital garments are
part of the work now engaging the
time and energies of the wives, mothers
and sweethearts of the boys
now in Prance.
In the dark days of the Southern
*
bore a large part of the burden im-l
posed by the civil conflict. With most
of the men in the war many a noble I
Southern woman with her own hands
and with the help of the children did
a large part of the farm work.
The decendants of those women
are doing the work necessary for the
the care and comfort of the men and
boys now on the battle line. Many
of these brave sons of the South
when taken to hospitals in France
will find not only the needed appliances
for makinc them romfnrtiihlp
but will find trained nurses from
' America to administer to their needs. \
In this connection it is pleasing to ;
note the response that American j
nurses are making to the bombing of
Red Cross hospitals by the Germans. !
Miss Delano, director of the department
of Red Cross nursing, gave
out this statement, referring to the
bombing of Red Cross hospitals: *'If
the Germans believe that such methods
will have any effect in deterring
American nurses from volunteering
for hospital work they are badly mistaken.
"Tactics of frightfulness will
merely send more and more of them
to back up our men. If it is the
German intention of frightening our !
women they will find that American
women do not know how to retreat
iny more than do our boys in Pielrdy.
The enrollment of nurses will
>e American womanhood's answer."
This war will doubtless furnish
nany a heroine of the Nancy Hart
lass. It will be remembered that
n the Revolutionary War a party of
British soldiers visited her home and
>rdered her to cook their breakfast,
rhey stacked their guns in a cornet
md sat down to eat the breakfast
she had prepared. According to the
listorian, Nancy edged around to
.he guns and seizing one pointed it _
it the British, saying: "I will shoot
the first man that moves." As she
was cross-eyed none of them could
ceil which one she was aiming at and
ill sat terrified. She sent one of her wl
children to tell her husband that she ,n
had captured six tories. One of the
men advanced toward her, when she
ihot him dead. She held the others
it bay until her husband arrived
The kaiser will find that Uncle sf
Sam's brave men that he is fighting hl'
on the fields of France have brave 1 x
women at home and in French hospi- |.u
tals, who are assisting in winning the
>var for liberty, women like Miss Dolano,
who cannot be frightened by
.he kaiser and his minions

WAKE UP, SOUTH CAROLINA lir
AND SIGN THE PLEDGE ca
Charleston?A very unique plan
has been decided on by the South w,
Carolina War Savings committee for er
.he purpose of waking up the state =
of South Carolina in the forthcoming
intensive W. S. S. drive in June.
From June 14 until June 28 it is St
planned to have all church and fire
bells, factory whistles, and other
nediunis of noise, ring and blow as
loudly as they know how, every day v.
it 12 o'clock noon. Every man, wo- |e
man, and child in every community,
n hearing the noisy demonstration, ^
will interpret it as follows: y
"Wake up. South Carolina! Sign g,
the pledge to save, and buy all the n1
War Savings Stamps you can. Wake U1
up!"
The state wide concert will he a (j
clarion call to duty, and won't dis- j,
lurb anybody except Bill Kaiser? a(
and no loyal American is very soliei- w
tious about Bill Kaiser's welfare. I ?
THE MISSING ENGINE Ij
Mr. Black, an old retired farmer,
decided to purchase an auto. Against
he advice of his wife he went to
Ihe city alone to purchase one. When
it arrived at the farm a mechanic
from a neighboring town was engaged
to drive and to see that all parts
were working satisfactorily. Noticing
a slight irregularty in the engine,
he remarked:
"Let's stop a moment; the engine's
missing." Whereupon the aggrieved
Mrs. Black reproachfully remarked
to her husband:
"Now, hear that, Silas?it's just as i
I told you. You should have taken j
someone with you that knew about
cars. Now we have the car and the {
engine's missing, and what good is it |
without the engine?"
A BIT OF ADVICE |[
> Firit?Don't Delay. Second?Don't
Experiment.
I
If you suffer from backache head
aches or dizzy spells; if you rest porr.
ly and are languid in the morning; if
the kidney secretions are irregular
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. In such cases the kidneys often
need help.
Doan's Kndneys Pills are especially
prepared for kidney trouble?they
are recommended by thousands. Can i
residents desire more convincing
proof of merit than the statement of _
a citizen of this locality. B
A. W. Chance, merchant, Main St.,
Lancaster, S. C., say: "I have been I
using Doan's Kidney Pills for year, |
nnd they have always strengthened i
my kidneys. I am satisfied that they Ai
are a good kidney medicine.. I have
felt much better since using them."
OVER SIX YEARS LATER, Mr.
Chance said: "I think as highly of;
Doan's Kidneys Pills now as when I ,
first recommended them."
Price 60c at all dealers. Don't ?
simply ask for a kidney remedy?get J|
Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that
Mr. Chance had. Foster-Milburn !
