the Press as they should. Some
times people say that the Press is an
innovation, and that souls need to
be saved without the press, as in
former times. They do not bear in
mind that in former times the poi
son of the bad Press was not spread
everywhere, and that, therefore, the
antidote was not so necessary. In

FAITH NOT DEAD IN FRANCE

The mother abbess of Ubesy rec
emily sent to the bishop of Saint Die,
France, the account of the altar
breads furnished by her monastery
during the year 1913 to 1875 parishes
or institutions in the dioceses. Fol-
lowing is the total:
In 1912, 1888 large altar breads,
565.5O9 small altar breads; in 1913,
1862 large altar breads, 7O2,lSo

These figures speak for them
selves, and are far from showing
that faith is dead in France.

POPES WHO WE'RE POOR.
The following account of the hum
BILE origin of the many of the popes
will dispel the idea that wealth and
power has anything to do in the
selection of a successor to the chair
of Peter.
1. st. Peter, the first pope, was a
fisherman.
2. Adrian Nv. (1154) had as his
father, an obscure man, without for
tune" Working in the fields in his
youth, he was obliged to beg during
periods of idleness.
8. Urban Nv. (1261) was the son
of cobbler.
4. Nicholas Nv. (1287. who was
general of the Franciscans before
becoming pope, was also of humble
birth.
S. Benoit TX. (13O3), general of
the Dominicans, was the son of a
washwoman. Shortly after his cleo
ton, his mother came to visit him

1T cannot be my mother" he
said, smiling. my mother is poor
country woman who cannot afford
rich clothes"
His words were carried to her and
were perfectly understood. His mo-
Their soon appeared clothed in her
customary dress, and fell into the
arms of her son.
6. Jean XXI. (1316) was of ORR
gin so humble that it is a moot ques-
ton with historians whether his
father was an inn-keeper, a shoe
maker, or secondhand clothier.
z. Benoit XII. (1334) was the son
of baker.
8. Boniface TX. (13S9) was the
son of poor Neapolitan parents.
S. Damase II. (14O8), according to
the chronicles of his time. was
known everywhere for his "obscure
parentage and the eminence of his
soul.''
10. Alexander v. (14O9) in his
childhood had to beg for living.
IL. Sixtus Nv. (1471) was the son
of fisherman and was himself a
fisher until he was admitted to a
Franciscan monastery.
-. Adrain vi. (1522) for many
years was shepherd. His parents
were very poor and he could con-
tinue his studies only by means of a
scholarship established at London
for the worthy poor.
10. Sixtus v. (1585) son of hus-
bandman, was keeper of flocks,
until he put on the habit of st. Fran
els.
IA. Urban VII. (15O9) was the
son of a modest ship carpenter.
Is. Gregory XVI. (1831), accord
ing to Cretineau-Joly, was of a fam
lily not we'll to do.
AS to Plus x, it is generally
known that his father was parish
agent of REESE, his mother a country

most useless in the history Of
the world, has come so sudden.

so disastrously on this side Of
the water. and right here in
Clarenon County, that we are
hardly able 10 get our bearings,
and in calm and meditative mo-
ments we wonder what it is all
about. Sixty days ago nobody
dreamed of such a thing. Some
people have been preaching that
the world is getting better; many
have argued that civilization had

The dead must be buried. and as
quickly as possible, for there is
other work to do. One squad
collects the dead in piles, anoth-
er digs long, shallow trench
es and the bodies are
packed in the trenches and, COW
cred with earth. The dispatches
told that before Liege the Ger.
mans had so many dead, and the
soldiers were so needed for fight
ing and gathering in the wound
ed that there was not time to
dig trenches so the bodies were
piled in heaps, oil was poured on
and they were burned.
TO THE GRAVE UNWEPT.
Often an army is driven from
it's position and must leave the
dead behind. Then they are
some times buried by the enemy
which occupies the position, but
more often, in the present war,
the dead of both armies are left
to be buried by the non-combat
ants. It is a common thing for
the army officers to order the
villages near the scene of battle
to bury the dead. At Liege,
and at other battle6elds of the
present war, nearly all the dead
were buried by the non.combat.
ant natives, and in this the wo-
men helped.
An effort is made to get the
name of each dead soldier so
that it may be included in the
list sent back to the home town
of the regiment. But generally,
where the fighting is as severe
as it is in this war, and where
one army is pushing another on
and on, there is no time to do
this. and the list of dead are
made up from those who do not
answer to the roll call and are
not among the wounded. The
majority of widows and orphans
will never know just how or
where their loved ones were
killed or where they were buried.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1914-09-09

and its successes IN battle are
many, but Napoleon's army was
also great, and the dreams OF
the .Emporer of Germany seem
to be akin to those Of Napoleon.
Germany may win, but I believe
that finally there is another
Waterloo to come, and this time
Germany will not be on the same
side that she was before. An
All wise hand is in it, and the
map of Europe is going TO be
changed. I believe that the
time is rapidly passing when
men are born to rule, or inherit
that right by birth. After the
wreck of France and the down :,
fall of monarchies and emperors
a republic and the rule of the
people arose. In the changing
of the map Of Europe as the re
suit of this great war let US hope
that republics will rise where
the masses who have to do the
fighting will also have a say so
in the government, aud that wise
presidents, elected by the mas
ses, will succeed these vain glo-
rious. selfish and heartless mon
archs.
In the meantime what a great
country is America, where call
nen are born free and equal"
and where the humbIest and the
lowest have a voice in the gov
ernment, and all people may
own property, protected by the
strong arm of the law, and Wor-
ship God in freedom and without
molestation.

spirit from his forefathers and
has been teaching and unculca-
ting that spirit among his people
for the past twenty five years,
has now reached the age of about
fifty years. and has an immense
army. He prides himself on the
fighting spirit of his forefathers
and in order to go down in his
tory for greatness he must
have a great war and conquer
somebody before he gets too old
to direct a war, or before he
dies. Conquest and victory in
war are his highest conceptions
Iof greatness. Human life has
little value for him, and human
suffering amounts to nothing
with him in his efforts to become
greater. than his grand father
Wilhelm. He boasts of a god
born right to rule: and it is ''my
country" and ':my subjects" and
''my soldiers" He must be
greater than Napoleon, wnose
fate it is hoped that justice will
decree that he should share.
Impartial writers are already
ascribing this great war to the
German Emporer William. His
torians will truthfully and justly
place the responsibility upon
him. What a pity it is that in
those countries of Europe and
the Eastern world, where they
have monarchs ana kings and
emporers, with so much author
ity and the power to declare war,
that they did not also have al
code Of honor, and the old time

if he must fight, he would |

and let the two big fellows fight
it out themselves, without bring

jects" in to suffer the loss OF life
and property.
It seems to me that from the
standpoint of right and lonor,
since these countries are into the
war, (and they all claim to be
fighting for honor England,
Russia and France are not only
justified but doing the proper
thing to sign an agreement for
none of them to Individually

all agree. The war has been
unjustly precipitated by Ger

there would never be any more
wars, and that while there
would be small questions arising
between nations, yet these would
be settled by arbitrtion. But
alas, how erroneous are such
| views, and as we witness four or
five Of the greatest and reputed-
| ly most civilized nations of the
earth after each others throats,
and ruthlessly Staying thousands
of innocent lives, making widows,
orphans, poverty, distress and
want, how can we escape the
conclusion that the world is not
growing better, and that man
kind is as selfish and grasping
and as blood thirsty as it ever
ever was. This writer lays
himself open to the charge Of
pessimism and asserts that be
does not believe that the world
at large IS growing better. A
great many people are growing
better, and al the people of the
world are growing wiser and
more advanced, but selfhness,
greed, avarice, and a disregard
for the lives and rights of others
are just as rampant as they ever
were.
Our opinions concerning this
great war, must be formed from
the news which we get from the
other side of the water, and from
all the news we have had it is a
useless and heartless war. We
did not know, until the fighting
began, how closely the whole
world was linked and bound to
gether in a commercial way.
Who would have thought sixty
days ago that if a war were to
break out in Europe we would
have felt its effects so sharply
right here in Clarendon County.
Who would,have thought that all
the commodities which We have
to buy would have advanced so
in price. Who would have
thought that cotton. the greal-
est commodity which we raise
in the South, would become for
a time practically worthless,
and that the effects Of this would
be felt by Us, even down to
the pound OF sugar that we buy.
or the pair of shoes that we buy
for the baby in our homes.
But we know now what 1t
means, here in the South, and

we naturally inquire, who
brought it about. This takes

THE ZONES OF LOSSES.
In deciding upon his arrange
ments for a battle, the chief sur
geon bears in mind that the
wounded will be distributed in
sszones Of losses. - The usual
proportion of wounded is 20 per
cent up to one thousand yards
range; from one thousand to four
hundred yards range, so per
cent; in the final rush, 10 per
cent, in pursuit 10 per cent.
The field hospital is not pitch
ed till the tactical situation de-
velops and the point where the
main attack is to be is made
known. Then a site is chosen
beyond the range of the enemy's
fire, accessible to front and rear
by road. yet of the route of
march of advancing troops, con-
venient to wood and water, if
possible, near buildings which
may be used for the overflow of
wounded, for, of course, casual
tiles in battle are not limited by
rule and the facilities provided
may be overwhelmed.
Conditions on the battlefield
are all unfavorable for clean sur
gical work. and it is often impos-
sible to reach many wounded for
hours, and sometimes for days,
as in the attack upon the Liege
forts in Belgium, where the
Germans wounded in the assault
were unattended for long
periods, thousands Of them dy-
ing where they lay beneath the
guns of the forts.
UNITED IN THE AFTERMATH.
The chief surgeon has under
him a corps of surgeons for am
putating the limbs of the wound
ed and for dressing wounds, and
also a corps OF litter bearers and
ambulance men. Many acts o1
heroism that are not recorded in
the annals of the battles are per.

and who is it who does not re-
remember the hanging of seven
anarchists in Chicago, or the as
sassination of three of our own
greatest presidents, Lincon, Gar
field and Mckinley, by anarch
lists. But should any country
be held responsible for the indl-
vidual acts Of a few anachlsts IN
that country? Austria-Hungary
made demands upon Servia for
reparition, and Servia agreed to
mako reparation: she agreed to
make honorable amends, but
Austria, feeling that Germany,
her big protector, would back
her in any unreasonable de-
mands, made her claims so un-
reasonable that poor little Ser
via could not accede and main
tain her self, respect among the
family of nations Then Rus
sia, whose peope are OF the same
race as the Servians, began to
mobilize her troops in case she
should be brought in, mobilizlng
them on her own territory,
which she had right to do.
Russia saw the German plan be-,
hind the whole thing, "hereup
on the German Emperor, the
big bully of Europe, issues an
ultimatum to Russie giving her
only twelve hours in which to
cease mobillzing and to disperse
her troops.
The German Emporer knew
all abouut the triple agreement
between Russia, France and
England, but he wanted to get
after Russia, and he hoped to
bring France IN and whip he, as
his old grand dady had done IN
1870, before France could wake
up. He hid not count on Eng

formed by the men of the hos
pital corps, and of the Red Cross
who go out often in the face of
terrific firing and gather up the
wounded.
Where an army is intrenched,
or fighting in the cover of a
wood. or in any other protected
place which it holds for a long
period of continuous fighting,
the gravely wounded are gather
ed up as they fall by the litter
bearers, assisted by the soldiers,
and are passed back to the rear.
When a fighting army is driv-
en- out of it's position and the ad-
vancing enemy rushes over the
field and on in pursuit, the med
ical corps then has an oppor-
tunity to gather in the wounded
left in the wake of the two ar
mics, and often the medical
corps of the two opposing arm
les work together upon the field,
each carrying off its wounded.
Often an armistice is taken so
that the wounded may be picked
up and the dead buried.
Generally the medical staff of
each army aims to care for its
own wounded, but in every case
where it Is necessary the wound
ed of the enemy are cared for
with the same attention that is
given those of the home army.
Thus in Antwerp the Belgians
are caring for large numbers OF
wounded Germans, and the med
ical staff of the German army
cared for the wounded Belgar:
ians they found when they cap
tured the forts of Liege.
BURYING THE DEAD.
The last service rendered to
the soldier by the medical staff
is to see that those killed are
promptly buried after the battle;
for, as the dead soldier has now
become rubbish, or waste matter,
his disposal is properly a part Of
the sanitary work of the medical
staff. The widows and orphans,
waiting at home until anxiety
deepens into dread, and dread
into despair, may be able to
form some estimate Of the rever-
ent care with which this last rite
is performed for their loved ones
''humanely" killed by modern
methods, when they know that
the chief surgeon counts on a
burial squad of five hundred
men disposing of 40 bodies an
hour, after the bodies have been
collected.
There is no ceremony about it,
and no reverence shown for the
dead. It is all matter of the
cold, horrible business of war.
