Cupid does not always announce
his plans but, as coming events cast
their shadows before them, an
eager and alert public a always

are nearing a consummation. For
that reason the marriage of, Mr..
Manly Dobson and Miss Flee
Swearingen, while unannounced in
advance, yet it was not altogether
a surprise. Sunday evening about
eight O'Clock Mr.. Dobson, an Edge

adll;ring friends, and Miss Swear
ingen, the widely beloved daughter
of MIR. and Mrs. Monroe Swearin-

nounces that he has the agency for
Briscoe automobiles for Aiken, Nc

The Briscoe is a new car for this

better on the market for the money.
In fact. they are as we'll equipped as
some cars that sell for from 500

contemplate purchasing a car, COM

Where Shall the Fight be Made?

Rev. Dr.. John Kelman, former
rector OF St. George Episcopal
Church in Edinburgh, and later in
the British service en- the firing
line in Flanders, while visiting At
lanta last week delivered an address
on the war situation. Referring to
this. the Atlanta Constitution says:
That Germany had set before her
the plan, conceived by her leaders
years ago, to conquer first France.
then England and after that Ameri-
ca, was confidently asserted by DR..
John Kelman, the famous English
preacher, formerly rector of St.
Georges Episcopal Church in Edin-
burgh and later in the British serv-
ice on the firing line in Flanders, in
a speech made yesterday afternoon
to an audience of between four. and
five thousand at the Auditorium.
Rarely has a visitor in Atlanta
been received by a larger or more
enthusiastic audience, and while the
speaker was late elm reaching the
Auditorium and kept the crowd for
an hour, not a man left while he
told Atlantans of what he had seen
on the battle front and the causes
that were actuating the United
States, as we'll as England, in the
war.
DR.. Kelman said that flags had
been captured sometime ago by the
British from the German trenches
bearing the inscription: This
year, Paris; next year, London; the
year after, America" That was
long before the United States de-
clared war against Germany.
"You have your choice in the
war with Germany whether you will
fight. them on the other side of the
Atlantic or on this side," declared
DR.. Kelman. Otherwise you have
no choice"
While the statements made by
DR.. Kelman may be new to some
people in this country, we cannot
understand how anyone could have
studied the course of Germany dur
ing the last few years, eve before
the war, and then from the day the
war began, without fully realizing
that that country had definitely de-
termined to conquer the United
States. and that all it's plans were
made with that in view.
DR.. Kelman's statement that I'M
less we whip Germany on the other
side we sball have to fight Germany
on this side is unquestionably true;
aud if we should have to fight
Germany on this side we would have
to endure the horrors of the kind of
warfare which Germany has made
upon Belgium and France-hofrQfs
which are beyond anything which
the human mind had ever conceived

While mocking-bird and nightingale
Are still a moment, never.
Little squirrels perching there .
Upon the tree tops hover;
Rainfrogs keep their cheerful cheep,
While evening spreads the cover.
Meadow lark upon the ground
Seeks out a bed of clover,
And makes a pretty little nest
To rear her brood, her lover
Sings on a low bowed bush a near
But leave her side? No never.
Upon the leafy branches which
Ger cast the drowsy river,
The other birds find charming homes
On trees, whose branches culver
Whenever a breath of wind comes
out
From mongst it's airy cover.
The lowly violet hides it's head
But peeps out at her lover,
Forget-me-not with eyes of blue,
And all the grasses SILVER.
Marsh mallow finds a lowly bed
Nearby the lazy river,
While daisies brown and white are
seen,
Enmixed among the clover.
These Indians found that charming
spot,
With dew drops glistening over
Each lovely petalled blossom there,
And sunshine sparkling ever.
No more our fancy hovers round
This vanished race, these lovers,
Natures true children, kindred
mates
To birds and flowers and c%lovers.
Look around you, oh, my daugh-
tiers,
See the beauty all about you,
And remember our ancestors
Pledged this land here, as your DUE.
Wrested it from Indian warrior,
Paid for it with blood and life;
But the Indian is remembered,
And our books with tales are rife
Of the prowess of the hunters,
Of the beauty of the maids.
So tits fit that we, the children
Of the stronger, alien race,
Should mark the paths the Indian
trod,
Ere our fathers took their place,
Should tell to ages yet unborn
The his'try of this vanished race,
Who lived and loved, and fought and
died,
Found the "great Spirit" in His
hunting ground;
Left a rich fragrance lingering round,
Of beauty, romance, and undying
love
Children of Nature, noble, kind and
brave.

ODE TO A VANISHED RACE.

You have asked an ode from me
Of the race once bold and free,
Who these woodland dells invaded,
And with hunting dress paraded
Meath the eye of admiration
Of the maids CT Indian nation,
Meath the eye of env;ous red-man
Not so strong and brave as he.
Vanished race! Ye noble band!
When your queens, casiques and
chieftains,
Placed their mark to deeds of land,
Knew We that your doom was sealed?
That no more q red-skinned band
Would be tillers OF your field?
Vanished race! Who erstwhile trod
Ger these valleys and these plains,
Warriors, hunters, only God
Knows whence came these strong
men true,
To what country they should yield
Fealty which was rightful due.
High cheek bones and copper faces,
Unknown to European races,
Lineaments forgot or known not,
By our present generation,
Soon will pass oblivions station,
RELOCATED to the past.
Know We of their tented houses,
Wigwams made of skins and bark?
Of their followed out canoes,
Of their journeys in the dark,
How they trod the forest wild,
Tanned each creature, knew each
plant,
Loved all things, as Natures child,
Before Nature, suppliant?
Swift of foot and straight of form,
Warriors bold; avengers strong,
Of whate'er appealed to them
AS of treachery and wrong
Hence the Euchees, once so mild
Vengeance wreaked for shattered
homes.
All about US lies the country,
That was confiscate to greed
BY the white mar of the east;
And this creek near which we stand,
Look you at it's beauties, need
We return to ages past
To recount unto our children
Graces of this streamlet clear?
Dark reeds edged the outer margin,
Long and broad each emerald leaf,
And amongst them, rising stately,
Long canes weave and Intervene.
Bending low to catch the perfume
Of the violet and the moss,
Are green willows set in hollows
Their long leaflets all agloss.
Ferns throw up their fronds so per-
feet,
See that dainty m~aidenhair;
Scarce you know if its a fern leaf
Or a spider web set there.
And the pale leaved wild geranium,
With it's lining of dark red,
Bringing just a hint of autumn
Ere the April days have fled.
Cool the branches wave above it,
Long leaved pine and water-oak,
Casting shadows long and dreamy
Gross the dancing p%urling brook.
See that Indian maiden waiting,
Listening long to catch the sound
Of her warrior lover coming
Gross the ford, with eager bound.
See he brings beads and baubles
From the white mans trading post,
Which he got from peltry traffic,
Counting not the heavy cost.
He comes Ger the Keowee Trail,
Cut in seventeen-seventeen,
For the Cherokees convenience,
Travelling from dawn till cen
From their towns (by trading posts)
To the city by the sea,
Where lived French and English
hosts.
Cool the grasses wave their branches,
Cool the water lilies blow,
And the maiden idly launches
Flower leaves on the rill below.
Swift the maiden casts her flowers,
CHANGING ever and anon
At her lover, coming nearer,
But so slowly coming On.
Soft he comes, far softer singing,
Of the maiden standing there;
Soft he carols, love notes bringing

That their days may be ennobled,
AS with life they try to cope.
