The Herolnes of War.

Let us not forget that every war has
it's heroines as we'll as its heroes. There
were mothers, wives and daughters
throughout our southland in the SIX
ties who were as deserving of honors s
as the men who braved the bullets on
the battlefields Privation, suffering
and self sacrifice which were endured at
home was not any less trying to hun
dreds of noble women than were the
hardships and dangers incident to
actual service.
And let US say in this connection that
the horrible war of Europe is not with
out its heroines, women who are as de-
serving of crosses and royal recogni-
tion as the men at the front.
To-day throughout England the call
is being made to women to come for
ward and fill places in commercial and
civic life that are now filled by men,
in orders.that the mer may volunteer
for military service. Thousands upon
thousands of women from all ranks OF
life are volunteering FOR these places.
Who does not admire the spirit that
prompts this action?
In London the other day one woman
of prominence offered to drive a de-
livery wagon, while another wrote:
81 am the mother of five soldiers and
sailors and / want to do my little bit
to release men to 60 and fight" Who
would not stand with uncovered head
! in the presence of such heroine?

"a New Eay Dawning."

The pendulum is swinging back IN
South Carolina. As result of the
great number of cases in which eXecu-
tive clemency was extended and the
laxness with which the law was en-
forced in many sections during the for
mer administration, there were evil
dences of demoraliza ton on every
hand. But it appears now that nor
NAL status is being restored. Realiz
ing doubtless that law enforcement
was at low ebb in South Carolina,
Governor Manning at once set about to
improve conditions. Where it was
known that the law was being fragrant
ly violated, the Governor has commu-
nicated with the sheriff, reminding him
of the responsibility that rests upon
his as an officer of the law and that he
will be expected and required to i'm
prove conditions.
The following from the Columbia
correspondent of the Augusta Chroni-
Gle indicates that law enforcement is
on the upgrade in South Carolina:
"There seems to be new day dawn.
ing in South Carolina in the matter of
law enforcement. The juries are do
ing their duty; the state penitentiary
is gradually filling up, following the
storm of several months ago, when a
former governor almost depopulated it.;
the death house is crowded; the juries
are finding men guilty of murder re-
gardless of color. There are many eX-
ecutions set for April" "
