No one can doubt and few will criticize the courage Of those mexahers of
the Senate and House who voted against the resolution declaring WA upon
Germany. They subjected themselves to cruel tannts, 10 miseonAundinn OF
their motives, perhaps to political or personal danger. That their vote was
IN accordance with sher eonveions is not open to question; and their judg-
nent # mistaken must be determined by the course of ssnk @
We n confident thst tAr oppoiion 70 the wareSted With their vote and
tht NO members Of either branch Of Congress will be more ready thant they
eexfd end -.
AT my rate, the time for debate has passed; the time for action has come.
Theeounty and Congress have something better Is do than theinuumg Of
motives to anyone; there are armies to be raised and povisioned, here are
tas to be devised and applied. there is fighting to be done and preparation to
be made for it Thse are tasks which will fill the time m patricia whaher
they sit in Congress or serve in the field or work in mdni6on factories. The
ma1aer in which eaA fuH1ls his task from this day forward should be the
aAz lnd of judgment The same courage which led Senator's and Represen-
tatIyes to vote against war when war was in the air will impen them to their
utmost effort to sustain war now that war has become q reality.

been in the city several days endeay-
oring 10 secure cniistments in an en-
gineering company which will be one
Of three engineering companies 10 form
a South Carolina battalion. Mr.. Irby
hopes to be able 10 raise the company
ont OF Greenwood and Laurens. 80 that
all OF the boys will be known to each
other He says that no experience III
engineering work is essential, but he
would like 10 have those with knowl-
edge OF practical trades, like carpen-
Try, plumbing, horse-shoeing, electri-
cal work, etc. There are more officers
In an engineering company Than in
any other branch OF the service, so
consequently there Is more room for
promotion. The pay Of officers Is 20
per cent higher than in other branch
es. Mr.. Irby is very desirous of secur-
ing a large number Of enIistments
from Laurens.
