fear he hasn't got it"
The weary traveller on an UNUSUAL,
slow train, who wrote on the side OF
the coach, Passengers requested not
to pick flowers while the train is in
notion" must have travelled on one
OF the fast (?) trains in our state.
In the public prints going the
rounds has been a story that three
children Of Confederate veteran of
Beaufort county, who died in Sa-
vannah had never heard OF God,
Christmas Or Thanksgiving. We
wonder if this is the truth. II it is
what a fearful responsibility rests on
the churches of our state.
1t is natural to presume that these
children were from 6 to II years of
ago. What are the churches (de-
nominations doing for home mis-
sions. Really we are but playing at
missions at best. Let us try to do
better.
Look here, Mr. Masheen man, you

Miss Annie Mae Bedenbaugh, OF

sic Moseley.

The president says that nothing
annoys me more than to be called
the poor mans friend or the rich
mans friend.' I am not the poor
mans friend or the rich mans friend,
the northern mans friend or the
southern mans friend. I am the de-
cent mans friend, whether he be rich
or poor whether he be from the south
or the north, and want and hope for
the assistance of the decent citizen
throughout the land in doing my duty
as the peoples representative" These
words sum - the attitude of til,
president toward the south.
If the president will just act this
way toward the south and not
threaten her with that black cloud
we feel sure he will have the support
OF every white man Of the south, and
if he will do as he intimates in his
letter to COL Nasty it will be all the
better for us. We trust his southern
half will exert itself for the next 4
years. We can all admire his in
tense Americanism and know an
American will be protected every
where.
