how ~neglectful we have been in the
all important matter of looking after
the youth of the country from a
health standpoint. No doubt a
large percentage of those rejected
by the army physicians on account
of defects with proper medical in
spection in the schools and with
proper training at the right time
might have been saved from their
present ailments had the country
shown an interest in protecting them
from dissipation and disease and in
rearing them in such manner as to
make them fit for military service.
At any rate we have no doubt that
the matter will so impress the au-
thorities that we shall undertake
universal training in this country in
order to ZEAL and develop a better
race of men in the future than has
been done in the past.

couraging those who are contribut-
ing their time, energy, and money

Manning, Governor of South Caro-
lima, do hereby proclaim and set

Sunday School Day for South Caro-
lima. On that day 7 earnestly urge
all South Carolinians, as well as all

nor of the State, do hereby urge all

patriotic duty to give heed to these
calls and to do our utmost to support
the government in its policy.
"Our efforts should be conferred
constantly on our soldiers, who are
fighting for our lives, u liberty and
our honor. Their success in the field
is contingent upon their having
proper attention and the necessities
of war. These things must be furnish

"The food for our soldiers can best
be procured by a systematic c%onserva-
ton, which is being handled by the
United States food administration
through the expenditure of money,
Their equipment can be procured only

Til CITY SCHOOLS.

It becomes evident every day that
the trustees of the city schools were
fortunate in securing the services OF
Mr.. Riser as Superintendent. he
has taken hold of the work with zeal
and determination, and he is succeed
ing admirably with it. The schools
have been thoroughly organized, and
all the grades are making good
progress. The new teachers elected
are efficient and are meeting the ex-
pectations of the trustees and pa
irons of the schools. .
The report of the Superintendent
for the first month shows that hve
hundred and twenty-seven pupils
have been enrolled up to the end OF
the first month. The average at
tendance was nearly four hundred
and ninety seven, showing that pa
irons and pupils alike are a%ppreciat-
ing the good work which has been
begun, and that they are interested
in seeing that it is carried to a sue
cessful conclusion. There is moth
ing which so disorganizes a school
and so disheartens the teachers as
moor attendance. And no parent may
expect his child to get along with
his studies unless the pupil attends
regularly.
In the eleventh grade this year
there are but four pupils so fer,
though one or two others are ex-
pected to come in very shortly. With
eleven grades in the schools, and a
corps of competent teachers it is
possible for any child to obtain an
education equal to that offered by a
good many colleges forty years ago.
No child who graduates from the
city schools in Abbeville, or i'll any
other city with like school facilities
may ever feel the need of an educa-
ton. 1t is to be hoped, therefore,
that the patrons of the school, in
the future, may take advantage OF
the opportunities offered by the
High School.

UNIVERSAL MILITARY
TRAINING NEEDED

The war has taught rs one thing
already, and that is tbat we should
have universal military training in
this country. # a country is to be
forced into war it is a great thing to
have the citizen soldier trained for
military service. We have already
felt the handicap brought about by
the want of this training.
But it will be a long time until
another war, and we do not advocate
the training of the young men in
military science SO much on account
of the possible need of them in the
military branch of the government
as on account of the young men
themselves. The hundreds and thou
sands of young men who have been
turned down for military service on
account of physical defects shows

PERFECT HEALTH

The late S. Weir Mitchell, NJ. D.. In
his book entitled Wear and Tear" has
well said ITO insure perfect health,
every tissue, bone, nerve, tendon or
muscle should take from the blood
certain materials and return to it's
certain others =. This process
In perfect health is system of mutual
assurance. and is probably essential to
condition of entire vigor of boa.

Man is a millionaire many times
over in the possession of blood cells
Woman Is not quite SO rich, for sci
entists have proved that the normal
number Of red blood cells in adult men
is five million; in women four and
one-half million to the square mill-
meter.
The normal cell is not absolutely
round in health but in disease be-
comes extremely irregular in shape
Every one can be in perfect health
and possess the millions of rich red
blood corpuscles If he only knows how
to 20 about it. DR. Pierce of the
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, n. Y, ad-
vises every man and woman to purify
the blood by observing natures laws.
In the first place, if your digestion is
faulty, and the food you eat is not
properly assimilated and taken M by
the blood, you need a tonic and di-
gestive corrector, something that will
increase the red blood corpuscles: he
believes in going about this in natures
own way. Years ago, in his active
practice Or. Pierce found that an al
teratiVe extract of certain herb, and
'oots nut up without alcohol, CT in
tablet form, would put the liver, lungs
and i'art into more complete action
This medicine he called DR.. Pirrcas

noting assimilation it nourishca tn,
