--Of highest interest to the Amer-
ican people today is news of the
men who are defending her honor.
Pickens county will be tidings from
DIR. G.. w. Smith who is now in
France. Dr.. Smith, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. John P. Smith, of Liberty, was
reared in the Six Mile section of the
county. He took an NJ. D. degree at
the University of Nashville with the
class of 'O9. Since that time he has
: engaged as a successful general
practice. On offering his service to
his country, he was examined and
passed as a first lieutenant in the
Medical Reserve Corps. In August
he was ordered to join the American
friend, DR.. w. c. Marctt, Of Oco-
nee county, a physician also bound
for France, he left Greenvillc for
New York City. For several days
they stayed here before being put
aboard the transport. After seven
teen days they landed at Liverpool
without experiencing the much
dreaded seasickness. Crossing Eng
land by rail, they enjoyed the warm,
beautiful and interesting country, a
contrast to the cold voyage across.
Pi .oina reaching a,li France they. found tn, the
DR.. Marett was here assigned to the
artillery and DR.. Smith to the in
fantry. The friends were separated
perhaps never to meet again Or if
they do, as a North Carolina Gov
ernor once said to South Carolina
official, ut will be a long time be-
tween drinks"
Dr.. Smith has done quite a bit of
practice among the French people.

is at hand, is very perplcxing as a
few of our boys are fluent speakers
