Entered as second-class matter at the postoffice at Chesterfield, South Carolina. , CHINA AND JAPAN There has been confusion and misunderstanding us to the trouble boChina and Japan with respect to the province of Shantung in China which is now held by Japan, but which that country has promised to give back to China. This is how it happened that Japan now has possession of this province in China: England and France were very anxious to get the aid of Japan while the war was in progress. They needed Japan's assistance in many ways, in liussia and in the Pacific. They wanted to clear the Pacific of the German Navy and Japan was the nation to do it. The two Nations, England and France, made a compact with Japan that they would see to it that if .Papon got out of China anything that Germany had there she was entitled to hold it as her own. This agreement with Japan accomplished a two fold purpose. It was a blow to Germany and put Japan in the war on the side of the Allies. It was not hurting China because Germany was holding the province of Shantung and it was doing China no good whatever. Japan took Shantung from Germany and proceeded to occupy it. China had been forced by Germany to give up this province in the war between the two countries. But the Japanese have promised to give up every item of sovreignty. which Germany held elsewhere in China. IL was unfortunate that in tin amendment to the League of Nations proposed by the opponents of the League in Conifress that they undertook to trive China the province that Japan had taken from Germany. This at the very time when Japan was promising to turn the province back to China. Nations are much like individulas. Japan would naturally resent the action of another nation in telling her what she must do, just as any man would say: "You may persuade me to do a certain thinjj, but when you order me to do it that is another matter." I'pon this action of Japan President Wilson, n one of his speeches in the West, said: "Japan did very handsomly make the promise that she would retain in Shantung none of the rights that Germany had enjoyed there, but would return the sovereignty without qualification to China and retain only what other Nations had already had elsewhere in China, relating to the development of railways and mines that were connected with the railways. This is Japan's promise and, personally, 1 have not the slightest doubt that she will fulfill that promise. While it is unfortunate that the opponents of the I.eairue in Conirress attempted to forte Japan to do what she had already promised to do, it is to be hoped that Japan will ful.ill her promise as President Wilson believes she will do. KILLINGS IN SOUTH CAROLINA It is positively terrible, the murders or homicides which have been taking place in South Carolina since January first. Up in Greenville they are doing something sure enough to pu a ban on killing. A shot gun or pistol is a mighty poor way to settle a dispute. With one man dead and the other in the penitentary or electric (hair, brings no advantage to either side. In fact, killing makes matters worse and tangles up affairs for all time. The ever ready pistol is the menace. Fisticuffs are not so bad, always, and besides an open game has something appealing in it. To whip out a gun or a knife contains nothing meritorious about the thing, for the person using the gun. Public sentiment must be built against lawlessM ..-.i L.... . ? ...i.

SSSS2!SHSSS2S52SS22H255S252!2S5!SSS GERMANY CAME THROUGH WAR A DYNAMO OF POWER Paris, Sept. 20?(By the Associated Press.)?"Germany came through this war a perfect dynamo of power. Her human military power is practicaly as great us ever and her 65,000,000 people have been schooled and hardened by trials. They have learned economy and self-der ial. "The nation has been compressed into a concentrated mass, which is surcharged with energy and moving with centripetal force while Germany's neighbors are spreading themselves out thin, sind quarrleing and moving with centrifugal force." Thus spoke Henry Morgenhtau, who headed the United States investigation commission at work in Poland, in discussing his observations in central Europe. "And what will be the result?" Mr. Morgenthau asked. Replying to his own quetsion, he cotninued: "If disintegration keeps up among Germany's neighbors, there can be one result. I doubt whether Germany fully appreciates her own strength. As she sits, calmly watching the dickering going on between the new states which are losing sight of great principles and fighting over little strips of territory, she must take grim satisfaction in the battle her enimies are waging in her behalf, and a Germany, encouraged by such discord among weak and struggling. undoubtedly will resort to arms within a few years and regain her lost territory. * League Musi Be Accepted "What will prevent the military clique from regain inn control in Germany if Europe continues to offer such tempting prizes to various nationalities? Such a situation will not encourage Germany to regain her trade by peaceful means and to pay indemities. "It will not satisfy the militarists of Germany to return to the factories if their war-worn neighbors weaken themselves further as prey to the Prussian spirit. "What is to encourage the democrats in Germany who are trying to | get away from militarism? Europe rupidly is driving on towarr a situation which eventually must result in a coaliton between Russia and Germany and the absolute destruction of many newly created powers unless I steps be taken to prevent it. "Opinion is strong that the League of Nations is the only means for preventing such a disaster. And it must come soon and have the loyal support of both great and small powers. Greece, Italy. Jugo-Slavia, Czechoslovakia, Poland and other European countries which have been fought over and are in a sadly weakened condition, need the support of some organisation which will afford them the proper tribunal for their disputes and assist them in winning their publ.cs away from the idea that w*?r is the only means of getting justice." STRONG AS STEEL LIGHT AS ALUMINUM A metal lighter than any yet known and as strong as or stronger than steel, has been for years the dream of many, and every now and then rumors are circulated to the effect that at least it has been discovered, says the Scientific American. The advantages which such a metal would have, especially for aircraft, are obvious, hut unfortunately it is generally found on investigation that there is a 'snag" somewhere. "The latest report to he circulated relates to a new magnesium alloy,said to have been discovered by a metal company of Montreal Canada. The new alloy, it is stated, is only two thirds the weight of aluminum and is as strong as steel. It is said to be especiallly suitable for pistons and connecting rods of aero and motor car engines. It is to be hoped that some of the qualities attributed to the new alloy may, on closer examination, be substantiated." Pay your bills by check.

KEPT HER AWAKE The Terrible Paint in Back and Sides. Cardui Cave Relief. Marksville, La.?Mrs. Alice Johnson, of this place, writes: "For one year I suffered with an awful misery in my back and sides. Mv left side was hurting me all the time. 1 ne misery was something awful. I could not do anything, not even sleep at night. It kept rue awake most of the night ... I took different medicines, but nothing did rue any good or relieved me until I took Cardui. . . I was not able to do any of my work for one year and I got worse all the time, was confined to my bed off and on. I got so bad with my back that when I stooped down I was not able to straighten up again ... I decided I would try Cardui ... By time I had taken the entire bottle 1 was feeling pretty good and could straighten up and my pains were nearly ill gone. I shall always praise Cardui. I continued taking it until 1 was strong and well." If you suffer from pains due to female complaints, Cardui may be just what you need. Thousands of women who once suffered in this way now praisa Cardui for their present good health.
