Americas Opportunity in Turkey.

Dr. George Washburn, president of Robert college, 1S70-1903, writes:
 It is great opportunity, wonder ful opportunity, and it is a call espe- cially to Americans. They believe in us now in Turkey They trust us. There is nobody they believe in and trust as they do Americans in Turkey. They know that we have no selfish ends in view there. We do not want any of their territory; we are Tot going to try to overthrow the Turkish government; and they understand fully that what we are doing there we are doing for their good. They may think we make mistakes, but they know we are honest, and they know we are do ing it for their good. They trust us as they trust nobody else, and conse quently it is great opportunity, 2 wonderful opportunity, for us to go or and to try to make the people under stand who Christ is and what Christ is to the world

ABSENCE NOT SAM'S FAULT
Under the Circumstances It Will Read. ify Be Seen Why He Was Un-
 able to Come.

An East end family has enjoyed for some time the services of an industri- ous colored man, familiarly known as Sam, who helped on certain days of the month with the heavier forms of the household work, beating the rugs, cleaning the windows, and keeping the walks and paths in order.
 On a recent morning, a morning when the useful helper was due, the doorbell rang and the mistress of the house answered the summons. She found at the door an extremely polite colored man, who took off his hat and thus addressed her:
 MT. Bannon is very sorry, ma'a but you must excuse him, cause he cain't come to your house this mornin ma'am."
 That's too bad" said the lady. "Is he sick?'
 No. ma'am," replied the messenger as he backed away He ain't sick he's daid '-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

full measure OF health, happiness and ply
sical efficiency.
Abbeville was represented by DR.. JAS G.
Hill and Mrs. Gertrude Sign.
There seems to be great awakening in
medical circles. New diseases and stubborn
old diseases are alike being met by the
medical profession with dogged determi-
nation to overcome them. The conventions
and conferences which are being held all
over the land are evidences Of such an
awakening and Of such determination to
overcome.
Our health is our greatest asset. Let us
encourage the guardians Of our health in
every way we can, and especially let us do
what we can to conserve the public health.
To do this we cannot take for ourselves a
better creed that Of Clifford Princhot, viz
1--WE desire to further all legislation and
efforts which are wisely designed to dimin.
ish sickness, prevent accidents and prema.
ture death, and increase the comfort and
Joy of American life, believing that human
efficiency, health and happiness are natural
resources quite as important as forests,
waters, lands and minerals"

The Ground Hog.

Our friend, the Abbeville Press and
Banner, is all awry on the ground hog
question. Here is what it says:
What Is he?
1--WE are all mixed up on wood chuck
and woodcock, and ground hog and ground
squirrel, and chipmunk, ct alias res, and
we do not know our grounds on the
ground hog question.
Natural history says his habitatis from
Maine to South Carolina, that he is good
to eat, that he is also called wood chuck

which has no connection with the word

the Green Mountain State, and who was
something OF a nimrod, and when this
question was up said that the ground
squirrel or chipmunk, and the ground
hog, or wOOdchuck, were different animals.
Webster has both illustrated, and while
both belong to the rodent family, they are
not much alike. The ground squirrel is
as pretty little fellow with his bright
markings as one could wish to see, and he
is common IN this section. He is not quite
one foot long with his tail thrown in for
good measure.

White Flowers Tied With Black Crepe.

They do much good. Men could not
get along without them. If ''they were
all transplanted far beyond the northern
sea" this would be little better than Pluto's
play ground-and yet-at times the good
women may be depended on to do most
foolish things.
The good women in Edgefield allowed
their feelings to run riot last week and In
their red hot, palpitating, over charged
enthusiasm did something that in all
probability many Of them regret already
When they learned of the Supreme
Courts decision concerning 1.-THE Tillman
children they got together a bouquet OF
white flowers tied together with crepe and
sent it to the old grandfather.
Some Of these days, dear women, you
will become grand mothers, and when you
look back down the aisle of time and rec
ognize this little incident, the result OF
your fevered enthusiasm, you will get no
pleasure from the unhallowed recollection.
Women know things by intuition, by
innate knowledge, they do not reason
things out. Their intuition usually guides
them Alright, and no doubt in this case they
are correct in their conclusions, but In
wounding the feelings of the old grand
father as they did they we're wrong!
| Senator Tillman did not desire to have
his family affairs aired in the manner in
which they were aired. He did not wish
to get into a squabble with lawyers and
Judges and !tattlerS and garalous scanda
mongers. Could he have avoided it he
would have done so. He saw no Other
way. He knows more about the situation
than any one else. He is better acquain
ted with the principals in this quarre
than any one else. Senator Tillman did
what he thought best for his grand chill
dren. He did this when he knew it would
bring about severe criticism, and-what
hurts far more reproach.
No, dear women of Edgefield your white
flowers tied about with tn the emblem
OF death went on mission Of cruelty
mission OF male-volence, shall we say
persecution!
Dear women, your flowers did not go on
q sleeveless erraud. They accomplishe1
the purpose whereunto they were sent
In them was hidden the poison of an asp.
1t is not the mission Of flowers, dear
women, to lancinate to cut, to bleed to
keep wounds green, to pique and sting,
but you have sent white flowers tied with
crepe on such a mission.
You, too, dear women, have or will have
troubles in your families. Let US hope
that no unhallowed son of Belial will rub
salt Of malice into the wounds that viii
be opened.

The eyes Of all have been turned to Co.
lumbia on Monday and Tuesday Of this
week. On those days the conference on
the Conservation Of Public Health in South
Carolina met.
This awakening has been brought about
largely by the medical profession Of the
state. People are taking more thought
for their health and prevention Of prevent
able diseases than ever before.
Some OF the subjects discussed are: The
economic Loss from Preyentable Diseases
The need Of Public Health Education; The
Regulation in the South Of Child Life
through modern Research methods applied
to Education and Labor; Typhoid discuss
ion; tuberculosis; Responsibility Of the
Physician as seen by the Physician and by
the Layman; Legal Powers and Respon.
sibilities OF Health officials; Preventive
medicine the medicine Of the future; Ma,
laria and it's Eradication.
All these subjects are OF vital interest to
people generally. If every man, woman
and child in South Carolina could have the
opportunity Of hearing these discussions
what difference It would make on the
vital statistics of the state.
One paper In particular shows that the
ideas Of the medical profession an under
going a change. That paper was, "Preventa
tive medicine the medicine Of the future
The purpose up to this time has been tc
cure; The purpose now is to prevent! Many
of our most dangerous ills are preventable
Most Of our Ills are preventable. 1t be-
hooves US to listen to those who have
studied these diseases and to follow their
direction in our daily lives and habits in
order that we may avoid them.
The object, the plan and the hope OF the
Conference as stated in the program is
To learn how South Carolina needlessly
wastes human life and physical efficiency
through controllable diseases and prevent
able death.
To confer as to how South Carolina may
conserve her richest natural resources-the
health and lives Of her citizens
To hasten the time when the average

did commonwealth may reasonable claim a

Call il Something Else.

A great hal-a-ba-loo has been and is
being raised over a certain question en-
titled, according to its adherents and
opponents alike, Compulsory Education"
Now every one is aware that we cannot
get too much education, that we do not
get half enough. We all lament that we
have not more opportunities for special
mental dicipline We all know that the
youth of Sonth Carolina should go to
school-we all know that.
Whence comes this antagonism to COM
pulsory education? Is it antagonism to
education? No. Then it must be to the
other half Of the subject, viz, "compul-
sary."
We pay compulsory taxes but we do not
call them by that name. We observe COM
pulsory game laws but we do not call
them by that name. We obey compulsory
health ordinances but we call them by
another name.
When the average American is pulled
up before that word compulsory" he grits
his teeth and reaches for his knife at
once, without considering what may be
htched to the word. he repudiates any
thing with compulsory" tied to it with
out once trying to find its value.
He would kick at paying taxes should
they be called compulsory" taxes. He is
not going to be compelled to do any thing +;
while he does dozens Of things which he is
Obliged" to do.
It is an unfortunate name that has been
tied to the education bill. Do not call it
Compulsory" Give it name that will
fool US. We do not mind being fooled in
the least but you cannot compel us to do
any thing.
For hundreds Of years we have been
fighting in order to avert being compelled
to do things, and now at this late day our
law makers would pass law with the
head. What poor judgment!
Call it Improved Education;" call it
Universal Education;" call it Extended
Education;" call it Popular Education );
call it Democratic Education;" call it
Twentieth Century Education;" call it
oh, any thing in the world but that
abomniable word compulsory"
Think for a minute what an anomaly
you have mixed up in that pet phrase,
compulsory education" compulsory
comes from the word, pello, to drive; while
education" comes from duco to lead! So
compulsory education" means driving
leading act" the which is paradoxical.
It is great pity that the promoters of
universal education have :hitched this
abomniable word to such an important
matter. Had they not done so the bill
would have become law long ago and
we would even now be doing, with good
grace, what we 80 vehemently oppose as
undemocratic.
