Enthusiasm shone in the faces of
the men as they marched through

They were in fine military form and
presented 81 good appearance.

HERE'S THE OATH YOU
TAKE To JOIN MILITIA

| Much has been said in official
and unofficial circles regarding the
necessity of changing the oath of
allegiance of the National Guards
men SO that in future they will
swear allegiance to the United States
as well as to their own state, there
by putting themselves under federal
control. To the average person it
may be news that the present oath
OF enlistment in the National Guard
OF this state is 50 worded and has
been for years, that the recruit does
not swear allegiance both to the
nation and to the state.
So far as the officers and men of
the National Guard of this state are
concerned, it would be difficult to
draft an oath whose wording would
more distinctly bring them under
federal control than they are at
present.
The present oath is short, concise
and covers the ground fully. 1t
reads as follows:
l,....... born in. in
the state OF. ....., and by oc.
cupation a......, do hereby &C.
knowledge to have voluntarily en-
listed this. -. day of. .
10 -, as a soldier in the National
Guard of the state of New York for
for the period of -. years, unless
sooner discharged by proper author
ity, And ! do solemnly swear that
| will bear true faith and allegiance
to the United States of America
and to the state of New York: that
| will serve them honestly and
faithfully against all their enemies
whomsoever; that | will obey the
order of the President Of the United
States and the Governor of the
state of New York, and that | am
now Of the age of years."
This oath is administered in a
most impressive manner. Each
recruit is taken into the room in
headquarters, where the colors are
kept, and sworn, repeating the
words of the oath after the officer
who swears him, at the same time
placing his right hand upon the
national colors. During the cere-
mony of swearing in all persons in
the room, of whatever grade or
statutes, stand at attention.
On re enlistment or promotion to
a niger commission the same oath
is repeated.

The iceman

Be kind to the Iceman. my neighbor;
He sweats while he's keeping you cool
Without his intelligent labor
Your butter would melt in pool,
Oh. bark to this hot weather ballad!
Oh. list to this lay of good cheer!
The lettuce would melt in the salad
If the Iceman should fail to appear.
He sometimes trips up on addition,
Though somehow he never falls down.
When you went to school for tuition
He was helping the old man downtown
Mean persons who question his adding
The Iceman will never forgive.
He knows when they die they II 60 gaddine
In place where no Iceman can live,

Don't mind the hard things he might say
Your heart would grow cold and unfeeling
If you sat on an icecake all day
Perhaps if you've not been a nice man
You will 90 to some sulphurous pool,
And you'll long for the sight of the lceman

!
their connection with the mother coun.
try, and started out to make their
own way"
! Probably no public paper, says Ty-
Ter, lever more perfectly satisfied the
immediate purpose for which it was
set forth than this Declaration. From
one end of the country to the other,
as fast as it could be spread among
the people, it was greeted In public
and private with every demonstration
Of approval and delight
In his preamble to his immortal
Declaration. Jefferson puts forth a new
political gospel; and he lifts the strife
OF a small band OF patriots up to the
height and grandeur Of universal
warfare, in which all ages and peo-
pies are participants. I'VE hold this
truth to be self-evident-that all men
are created equal This declaration
though self-evident truth to Jeffer-
son, was really new revelation to
JeffersOn's age. In this declaration
is the Constitution OF the United
States contained. Here you have the
republic in germ.
One might suppose, at first thought,
that the anniversary Of Americas indie
pendence should date from the day on
which the Banner OF Liberty was first
unfurled and the first heroic blow
against tyranny was struck, or, at least,
from the day on which the last and
decisive blow was given and national
independence was secured. But our
Independence day comes from no bat
tie in the field. Lexington, Concord,
Bunker Hill-not one Of these is Sc
lected.
On this memorable day in 1916, when
1t became known that the final action
was going to be taken, thousands Of
citizens, anxious to learn the deci-
sion Of congress, crowded the streets
Of Philadelphia. In the steeple of the
old statehouse was bell on which by
happy coincidence, was inscribed:
Proclaim liberty throughout all the
land and unto all the inhabitants
thereof"
In the morning when congress as
sembled the tell-ringer went to his
post. having placed his little boy be-
low to announce when the Declaration
was finally adopted, that his bell
might be the first to peal forth the
glad tidings Long he waited while
the deliberations went on. Suddenly,
he heard his boy clapping his hands
and shouting: Ring Ring"
Grasping the iron tongue, he swung
1t to and fro, proclaiming the glad

Row is on With
Negro Newspaper
In Damage Suit

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 10.-There is an
awful row in Atlanta's "darktown" be-
tn cen the negro lodge of Odd Fellows
ard the negro newspaper, The indie
pendent.
A few days ago the Independent
came forth with an article dealing with
the local Odd Fellows situation in the
course of which such words as
"Grooks" and Shining" were pointed
ly used.
Now a negro contractor named
Pharrow has brought a $4,000 libel
suit against the editor of the paper
and the whole of progressive darktown
is divided into two hostile camps over
the situation, some siding with the
eCitor and some siding with the con
tractor.

RESOLUTIONS
Americas, Ga, Jan. Sth, 1916.


Whereas, God in His all-wise provi-
dence has seen fit to remove from our
midst our beloved brother, Sam D.
Fuller, through sudden and accidental
means, and,
Whereas, His removal in this man
ner at this time, is beyond the under
standing of our finite minds to COM
p-ehend, and,
Whereas, We believe and know that
God is all-wise, and that His provi-
dences are always for the best good of
His children. Therefore be it resolv-
ed;
First. That in the death of our
brother, Americas Division, No 53S,
Order of Railway Conductors, has lost
good and faithful member, and each
individual member a brother who was
ever loyal, faithful and true. Be it re-
solved;
Second, That while we do not and
can not understand now why our
brother should have been called in
this unexpected way, still we bow in
BUNDLE submission to the. will of the
IAIl Wise God, who is our Father, know
ing that in His wisdom, He doeth all
things for the best, and that "All
things work together for good, to
them that love God, to the called &C
Icording to His purpose. Be it re-
solved;
Third, That our hearts go out in
deepest sympathy to the loved ones to
phom he was bound by the ties of
relationship, according to the flesh,
and especially to the dear old father
ard mother, who in their feeble old
age are called upon to go through this
| fiery trial of their faith, yet who so
grandly looked up into the Fathers
face, and through that faith said
Thy will be done; thou knowest best"
Be it resolved
Fourth, That we will miss the ever
genial and smiling face of our brother
az our meetings, and in the daily
walks in our lives, and that we will
ever cherish his memory as one of the
noble men God allowed to bless this
world and our lives for a time before
lie took him. Be it resolved;
Fifth, That we send a copy of these
resolutions to the father and mother
Of our brother that a copy of same be
spread upon our minutes, and that we
publish same in both of the Americas
papers and the Abbeville paper.
Respectfully submitted in P. F.
