EaqIes as EmbIems.

Americans were not the first people
to adopt the eagle as the emblem of a
nation. The eagle has been a ~favorite
with many peoples, and his heraldic
history goes away back to the morning
time Of history. The standard of the
eagle was borne by the Persians as far
back as the time of the battle of
Cunaxa, B. @. 401. The Romans car
ried gold. silver and ivory eagles as
standards. Charlemagne added the
second head to the eagle for his arms,
TO denote that the empires of Rome
and Germany were united during his
reign. There seems to have been some
thing about the "royal bird" that al
ways commended it to the considers
ton of the makers Of national coats Of
arms.

An hour or two later Tom Conner
rushed into the Rabid Pup with the
story that his house had been burglar
lied and his new watch stolen. Every
body knew of the watch.
Conner had returned from Denver
with it.
He was greatly upset by the loss and
ready to accuse almost any one. But
calmer minds took up the matter.
Hawkins, who owned the Rabid Pup;
Doc Summers, who owed the same
place; Shorty and the few others who
took leading parts in promoting law
and order in Rio, Immediately made a
mental inventory of the men in town
who could have committed the crime.
There were some half a dozen char
acters there at the time, any n of
whom was not above committing deeds
Of almost any kind. And of the entire
number Conner himself was about the
most disreputable.
There was only n person left In

III practically every town, going from
store to store and house to house in
an effort to secure subscriptions. This

Due to the efforts OF these men, the
allotment OF bonds for the state is
constantly dwindling; and their eff.
forts will be continued until the close
OF the campaign on June l5.
The campaign has also had and is
still having the utmost cooperation of
the women's clubs Of the state. The
numerous organizations have contrfbu.

stint; and women and girls have been
conspicuous in all the movements In

Although June 9Th was officially dos.

which there should be definite efforts
to secure a subscription from every
man in the state, the campaign is BY
no means over. It will not end until
June Is. the day upon which sub.

part OF the numerous committees who

government and by the Liberty Loan
Central Committee FOR South Caro-
lima that the allotment of $500 ,OOo
which has been assigned to this state
be several times oversubscribed. The
effect of having this bond issue over
subscribed will have the same moral
eject upon the enemy as a great de
feat; and this is what Is trying to be
secured.
Liberty Bonds are the strongest
security that any man may own. They

to be used in fighting the battles OF the

This has extended to the utmost

YANKE EE BRAINS PRODUCE
OF TEN WORLD WAR WONDERS

Of the ten wonders of the world
war-implements of war never used
before-eight are the product of
American brains, it is shown in tabu-
lations made today in connection with
compilations on the probability that
Yankee Ingenuity will produce the big
idea that will put the U-boat out of
business.
The two nsn-American inventions
are of German origin and such has
been their use that no American re-
grets not having been their creator.
These two are the Zeppelin raider
and poison gas. They have done much
to bring upon Germany world con-
demnation.
At the outset of the war the world
marveled at tales of the great AZ
centimeter German guns and credited
German efficiency with a marvellous
invention.
Though shrouded with secrecy
much now is known about this mon
ster gun that fires a shell more than
three feet high and weighing 1,7O5
pounds from a cement emplacement
Louis Gathman, American inventor
claims he originated the type of shell
that made the great gun possible and
offered it to our war department.
The gun throws a shell Is miles.
Poison gas and liquid fire, twin in
ventions of frightfulness, is solely q
German product, though ancient his
tory shows use of similar agencies.
Four hundred years before Christ
Delium and Patea were "smoked OUT
by poison gas, probably generated by
burning wood saturated with pitch
and sulphur.
The submarine merchantman-
probably the greatest wonder of all
is in all essentials an American inven-
ton. Simon Lakes studies made it
possible. Germany developed the
idea in the Deutschland.
Trench cities have been looked
upon as German wonders, but are
merely amplifications of methods and
