This drug is sticky ether compound,

up the corn without inhaming or even

On the subject of playing the same
part over an indefinite number OF

There is no such thing as playing

The hour has struck. This country
is now at war. The time for loud
protestations of patriotism and clam
orings for war has passed. The time
for action has arrived. The call now
is for men. Men at home and men
in the front and men in the trenches.
The munitions ad the money may be
raised easily.
1T is the time that stirs mems
souls, and men will respond nobly to
the call of dire necessity. We do not
need the blusterer and the propagan-
dist anv longer. We now need men
of action. we need efficiency, and the
call for it in civic life does not stand
by the breadth of hair behind the
call for army and navy. WE need
men everywhere The hour has struck
for all men to respond"
We do not need 10 abuse those who
were not in favor OF war and who did
not believe We should go into it and
who prayed that this country mign,
remain at peace aid lead all the
world in the paths of peace. They
will do their duty and will be founq
standing by the government in many
cases more Loyalty and patriotically
than some who were loud in their
protestations for war. Robert E. Lee
was against secession and thought
that war should not be, but when
his native Virginia went into it he
went with her and there will be none
to say that he did not do his duty
as a soldier. and there is none more
honored than he.
We had hoped and believed that
our president, who is in Cur opinion
a good and a great man, and who is
doing the right as he sees it, may
have kept us out of this struggle. but
it seems that he could not and Of
course those of us who did not want
war will stand by the government.
The Greenville Piedmont has some
what of our ideas when it says, eve
have an idea that those who wish
this country kept out of war will
make better soldiers than the valiant
rowdies who by force tried to de-
prive them of the right guaranteed
