federates marched quietly out of the
sally-port and thence through the
sand dunes TO Cummings Point where
we made our "get away" in small
boats to Forts johnson and Sumter
which we successfully accomplished
with the loss of one small boat con-
tanning Major F. F. Marley of the
End artillery, and few others, which
was captured by the enemy. As !
have already said, the service during
the last five days at Wagner was the
severest and most horrible experience
/ passed through during the entire
war. The first two days the enemy
kept up regular bombardment Of
the fort from their land batteries and
the feet, but when night came on
they would cease and we would spend
the night in hard continuous work
trying to repair some Of the damage
done, and we had couple Of little
mortars that we could still use, but
the enemy had by that time worked
their way so close up that we had to
cut the fuses so short that when the
shells would explode some of the
fragments would come back in the
fort. We could and did, also throw
hand grenades over into their trench
les, but we were able to do this for
only the first two nights. The third
day at early dawn the enemy opened
on us with every available gun on
land and sea, and for three days and
nights without a moments cessation
and with redoubled fury, they hurled
upon as, s, 10 and 15-inch shells at
the rate of about fifty a minutel The
boom of the guns and the roar Of
bursting shells and the hammering
and battering upon the fort were aw-
full, deafening and horrifying. Before
it had gone on for twenty-four hours
every gun In the fort had been dis
mounted and the parapet torn and
shot to pieces. The troops were all
crowded into the bomb-proof, except
a few that we had TO keep out on the
parapet as sentinels. These were re-
lieved every thirty minutes, unless as
was often the case, the shells of the
enemy had put them off of duty for
ever. The bodies of those shot of the
parapet while on duty, If killed, lay
out on the ground, for to attempt to
bury them would only result IN the
death or wounding of those sent out
to perform that duty. When the Of
ficer went out with men to relieve
those on duty, he would often find the
place vacant and the dead body of the
sentinel lying below on the ground. II
he was only wounded an effort would
be made to get him into the bonlb-
proof, and this was sometimes sue
cessfuIly done The bolnb-proof war

and encased and covered with sand
and turf about twelve or fifteen feet
thick, but It was never intended to

Recent Law Saves The
Property Owners

Mr.. Brockett comes out with the
statement that the State wide bill
of 1915 provides that the abutting
property owners pay only one-fourth
of the cost of fixing the streets in.
stead of third as the election to
be held next month in this city pro-
vides. This is good point raised
by Mr.. Brockett and we thoroughly
agree with him in the statement
that it would be "eminently unfair
to charge one third of the cost of
improvement to property under the
Brockett act and later .One-fourth of
the cost to other property that may
be improved" So why should even
the most enthusiastic bond promot'
ers want to pay more for improving
their property than the State wide
law requires? Weahardly think they
will.

PRIZES FOR RURAL FRIENDS
Correspondent Wanted on Every Route
Ont From High POiat aud the
Surrounding Communities.

The Review is anxious to have a
correspondent on each of the five
routes out from High Point and in
all the villages surrounding this city
and we are going to make it inter-
estlng to them. We have a few
correspondents but we want the ter
ritory into which The Review circu-
laes thoroughly covered in a letter
EACH week from the correspondents
We are willing to make it interest
ing to the writer's, too.
Most any energetic girl or boy,
man or woman can do the work
which will soon become a pleasant
duty and it will only require few
minutes each week.
1t will be a good thing to have
the news on your route or in your
community read by the people
along the route each week and you
wiliabe praised for your work by
them and rewarded by this paper.
Each month we are going to re-
ward first and second prize for the
best news letter from the cores
pondents The first prize will be SOC
the second Csc.
Annual and semi-annual prizes
will also be given. To the cores
pondent who does not fail to send
letter each week FOR ONE YEAR
will receive in addition to the other
monthly prizes So 90; for 6 months
81 90. The correspondent being the
next nearest perfect score during
the year will receive $l.O0 and SOC
for 6 months. A correspondent
winning the six months prize is eli
gible to win the next six months
prize but the 81 90 limit will apply
in either case-that is if you accept
the 6 months prize you can't de-
mand the IL months prize at the
end of the year but will receive two
6 months prizes of ST 90 each (and
not the So 90 and ST 90 pfizes) pro-
vided you have a perfect score of
letters at tie end of IL months.
The same applies t0 the winner of
second prizes. The monthly prizes
are independent of the semi i-annual
and annual prizes If there is a tie
among two or more of contestants
during the 6 or IL months period,
the money will be equally divided
but in no case will each winner re-
ceive less than Soc.
Now you see there will be neat
little sum paid out by The Review
when ten or twelve correspondents
are at work.
MONEY FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS
In addition to the above we are
going to give these correspondents
a very liberal per cent. for securing
new subscribers, viz: On every
years subscription at $3.50 we will
allow 45c; on every 6 months sub
scription at 75c, zoe. On all col
lections due The Review for back
subscriptions. Csc on the dollar.
Now isn't this a nice chance for
you to earn some loose change and
at the same time develop into a
good writer and be looked up to by
your friends who will only be too
glad to give you the news and help
you out.
Let us have your name at once
as a correspondent. This contest
begins August 18th, but don't wait,
start your letters now and get in
shape for week or so.

TAKE A VACATION SOON
1t is Time to Take a YacatiOn---Every
body That Works Either Mentally or
Physically Needs Vacation Some
time During The Year

Perhaps you think you can't af-
ford to take vacation this year.
The fact is, in general you can't af.
ford not to take one. You can t
afford not to rest your mind and
body and get away from routine
work.
| Perhaps you have not thought
what a breakdown or spell of sick
ness would cost you. The old ad-
dage, a stitch in time saves nine, -.
is applicable to our nealth as to our
clothes.
You NAV not be able to afford an
expensive trip to the seashore or to
the mountains but you can afford a
rest and change of environment for
at least a few days.
A few important points not to be
overlooked in taking your vacation
are:
First. 90 where your health will
not be in jeopardy. Stay at no
place where there are flies or mos
quitoes. Second, know that where
ONOA yOu ~ luCIC dlC odulIdAy
means for the disposing of sewerage
Third, know that the milk is, clean.
Fourth, know that your drinking
water is pure. Fifth, be vaccinated
against typhoid fever before leaving
home, thereby reducing your 'chanc-
es of contracting typhoid fever 80
or 100 per cent.
A few don'ts will perhaps be in
place pefore making the start.
Don't take too much baggage.
Don't take any cares or worries.
Don't exercise too strenouSly at
first.
Don't eat injudiciously.
Don't spend too much money.
Don't forget that rest is what you
are there for and that a vacation
that does net put new life into your.
body and joy into your heart is a
failure.
