4 LETTER OF THANKS
United States Navy Recruiting Sell

Main Station Arcade RujldInp

vice
Main Station Arcade Building
Columbia, S. c.. August 5.
To the Editor of The Herald and
News. 4
Dear Sir: In view of the generous
response Of the young men OF South
Carolina to the call of our president
for men to man the ships of our navy
| take this opportunity to thank you,
personally. for the valua Bile assist
ance you have generously given US
in our work.
Without, this patriotic and unselfish
attitude on the part OF the state press
all our effo:ts would have been un-
availing, as We could not have gotten
the very necessary publicity.
At the present time We are allowed
to enlist only 10 men per week from
South Carolina. | am afraid that Our
weekly quota will be still further re-
duced. l would, therefore, recon-
mend that any young men desiring to
enter the navy apply as early as pos
sible. Our navy is great institution
and offers a fine opportunity for the
young men under 81 years Of age TO
serve his country, broaden his views
of life, see the world ane assure his
future.
A simple reading of Admiral
Gleave's report of the conveying OF
our first troops to France by the navy
should be inspiring to every. young
man, and if inclined that way, should
influence him to join the navy now,
or for country boys after crops are
gathered. We only have vacancies
as apprentice seamen and hremen
third class.
Again thanking you for making my
work in South Carolina a success and
nv stay here an unalloyed pleasure,
I am, very sincerely,
OF. COOPER.
lieutenant u. S. Navy.

How, then can any well Informed
and fair-minded person charge the
Lutherans with being responsible for
this war? This is a gross misreprs-
sentation, not to say, "a vile SANDER
The following from the Columbia
State is worthy of note, and fur-
nishes food for thought:
"The United Inner Mission OF the
Eyangelical Lutheran church in the
United States is distributing a pam
phlet entitled Christian Service In
War Times" containing suggestions
TO pastors and congregations from
which the State quotes this para
graph:
"In this national crisis let all will
inely render unto Caesar the things
that are Caesars Let US not shlrk
our responsibilities nor guiltily seek
nersonal advantage whereby the bur
dens Of others are increased. In &C
cordance with Gods word, let us give
loyal support to all measures adopted
by our government to cope with the
present situation. Let US meet
promptly all lawful demands on our
service, property and life. Our CON
duct as citizens must be above sus-
picion and reproach. We cannot DE

ernment, for "the powers that be are

"Inasmuch as the position OF tne
lutheran church has been discussed
in the press. The State finds pleas
ure in printing the foregoing clear
and unequivocal expressions. AS Tne
State has already said, there could
be no just criticism of the Lutheran
church. It is not exclusively a Ger
man church and probably it has a
larger membership in the countries
hostile to Germany than in that EN-
pire and its allied countries. When
the responsible boards Of the various
h,anches of the American Lutheran
church call upon their people to
"meet promptly all lawful demands
on their service. property and life
and say that "their conduct as cati-
zens must be above suspicion anu

other church is saying or could oe

or :. T. HALLMAN WRITES
ABOUT LUTHERAN CHURCH

Srartanburg Herald.
Editor of The Herald:
One of the things which has often
named me is the fact that many peo-
nle have entirely wrong impressions
as to the relation between the Lutn-
eran church and one OF the warning
nations.
TIE notion has really been CIR
culated that we Lutheran Christians
are neturally, and necessarily slcans
with German Autocracy when nothins
can be further from the truth. Tne
unreasoning mind says, "Lutheranlsm
Rad it's origin in Germany. and Lutn-
erans are, therefore, Pro-Geraan.
They forget that Professionalism had
its origin in Germany, and that there
are many thousands of German bap-
lists. German Methodists, German
Presbyterians, German Episcopalians
and German religionists OF other
types.
Some have the notion that the
lutheran church in Germany is the
State church and had much to 90
with the war, when nothing could be
further from the facts. The German
Empire has no state church, nor is
the Kaiser a Lutheran at all. He re-
longs to a oonglomerate mass called
ssThe United Church of Prussia "a
reformed mixture. This mixture, TO-
sether with the Roman Cathoac
church, holds the balance of power
in that war-cursed land, and the
faith of Luther is in no way respon-
sib1e for this world conflict The
last pubic act of Luther's LIE was
that Of q mission to prevent war
and our ministry has always been
taught and ordained, to connne
themselves to the Gospel, and MOT
matters OF state.
Three of the largest general Lu-
theran bodies IN the United states
by official act, have urged our peo-
nile to loyalty and faithfully suppor'

prosecution of this war against I"-

WHERE WE DISAGREE

According to a report the democratic mach inc of Juneau went on record the other mght as being opposed to the re-appointment ot Cover nor Strong to the governorship.
 Now pray, Mr. or Mrs. or Miss Machine or whatever your name may be; what is wrong With Governor Strong? What has he done to incur vour displeasure? Is it because he has made an excellent official? Or is it because he voted a certificate of election to Wickersham? Come out Miss Machine with your reasons to oppose him for re-appointment Be specific please.
 With due respect for the Governor, let 1t be understood for all time that we do not claim perfection in the Governor. AS a matter of fact we hardly believe he does himself; but we do claim that he has made as good an official as All asla ever had Moreover, with the exception of John E. Troy, one of the favorites recom- mended by the machine for the office, Governor Strong has made better official than the people would have were they to take all the good points or virtues from two---any two of the other three endorsees of the machine and give them to the third one Assuming that this could be done, in Jennings the people would have an arch-auto- crat; in Griffin mutton-head and in Whitlesy an inflated pedant
 Mo- let the democratic machine pur while or grumble, we don't care which, the real flask ans are satisfied with Governor Strong and the voters have not let go of the gee pole yet. How ever if change must be made, John E. is the man for the place next to US.

It says: "The country wants a military leader---a commander who the men behind the guns are willing to follow. Do you hear that call Colonel? You're "IT"' Teddy, you're ''IF." The real fighting men want you. They want you because they know that you will not send them where you will not go yourself. They know that when they come to face real dancer Teddy will be there to lead them. Real men have peculiar love for a man who is man from the ground up
 If you answer the call Teddy. there won't be any necessity to beg men oenlist. Not onlv men. but every woman will be ready to shoulder q gun and follow your lead. Colonel, our cause to fight is T just cause; and you know it. Like wise you must be aware of the fact that our country needs leader. All you have to do is to step at the head of the column, point in the direction you want to 90 and the whole country will follow as 9 wild band of Apaches. Come.

Al last the dreaded step has been taken and war we must prosecute until one side is beaten. Ii nav be our side and aqan it may not but whatever the result may be the country can live in confidence that every American will give a good account of himself while the battle lasts.
 For the last two years our country has been at war with the rest of the world as witness. That war was a war to keep out of war; and while we cannot say that it has been bloody conflict. it has not been boodless. Hundreds of our citizens have been murdered on the high seas while we fouGht at home aeainst our duty to aven@e them. But this is all over now as we have notified our enemies that we had reached the end of a much abused patience and hence
