RED CROSS EQUAL
TO GERMN TRICKERY

To provide for conditions brought
by Germany's constant shifting of
American prisoners from one camp
to another with the result THAI par
GELS of food and clothiMy may not
reach them for weeks, the American
Red Cross, &c :nrding to ..l,Ices from
Berne, has completed cooperative ar
| rangcments With the French Relief
| agencies to assist in the immediate g
care of all newly arrived Americans.
Under this arrangement, French Com
mittees at the German prison camps,
supply food and clothing from their
reserve stocks, until the Germans see
| fit to let news of the arrival get to the
Red Cross at Berne.
In case of "A transferred prisoner,
the Germans frequently do not let
his friends know his new address for
two or three weeks during which
time, Of course. he receives no par
| GELS from the outside.

moment they arrive at any camp

Paris and Lyons to send similar in
structions to all prison committees
supplied by them. These French
Committees also report the arrivals
of Americans to the American Red
Cross, which at once begins regular
shipment OF food and clothing. ANY

Americans to maintain them until the

the Red Cross restores to the French

is establishing American Committees
with reserve stocks as rapidly as it
can get in touch with groups at diff
ferent prisons. Such committees al
ready are established at Tuchel,
Brandenburg, Villengen and Darn
stadt.

DO NOT FORGET YOUR
WAR SAVINGS PLEDGE

Charleston--Just because every
one is stirred up over the elections is
no reason why any person should for
get to redeem his war savings pledge.
There appears to be something which
has caused the people of South Caro-
lima to forget the solemn pledge they
made during the June w. s. S. cam
paign, because the sales of War Say
ings Stamps reported so far fer Aug
guest falls far short of the July and
June sales. This indicatcc that
not only are the pledges not being re
deemed by all who made them, but
that those who were not reached in
the June pledge campaign are not
purchasing their share of W. s. S.
There are now left but a few days
during which the August pledges may
be redeemed; and furthermore, there
are left but few days during which
War Savings Stamps may be pur-
chased at the present price of $4.19
On and after September first the
price OF these stamps will bc $4.2O
each.
When the most encouraging re-
ports are being made in all sections
of the country it is somewhat discour.

Ings Committee that the ron, women

GERMAN PRISONERS
SAYS WAR is LOST

Headquarters of the British Army,
Aug. 25.-The demeanor of hundreds
of German officers taken prisoner re-
Gently is in striking contrast with the
attitude of officers captured during
the British retreat last spring. Then
captured German officers were AFRO
giant and said Germany meant to
cruch the British to earth but now
they are depressed and very anxious.
They appear very willing to talk,
and the tenor of their conversation
may be summed up as follows:
They say Germany entered the war
with enthusiasm, but this has long
since disappeared and the struggle
has now become an economic one with
Great Britain.
They admit that Germany is in prac-
tic&ily "a hopeless condition, both eco
nomically and from the man powei
point of view, and ask whether Great
Britain cannot now consider Germany
sufficiently reduced to be no longer
dangerous trade rival or whether
the Allies intend to crush her altoge-
thcr. In the later case they, say Ger
many will be forced to fight to the
last but they made no effort to con
ceat their impression of what this
means for the fatherland
They say they believe there is every
disposition to evacute Belgium and
Northern France and even negotiate
for the retention or evacuation of AL
SAGE Lorraine.
They are generally unanimous in
agreeing that annexations thus far
made under the BerstLitovk peace
treaty were great mistake but they
think Germany cannot withdraw from
affairs there.
They are aware that the American
Army now has assumed very formida-
bic proportions, and there is q general
admission of the seriousness of this
factor.
The submarine campaign they can
not refer to without gestures of inn
patience.
Captured noncommissioned officers
attribute recent Germany defeats to
in inefficiency of their air service
and more especially to the inexper-
ience and lack of stamina Of the latest
recruits who are most inadequately
drilled and trained and who are
physically incapable Of sustaining the
heavy strain of defensive warfare.
The mere presence of these new re-
cruits, they say, produces in a com
pany demoralizing effect upon the
older men because 1t indicates to
what straits Germany must be re-
duced to employ such poor material.

A HERo'c POINT OF VIEW

New York, August-Flat on his back
n the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, w. A.
Roberts, winner of the Croix de
Guerre, the badge of the Legion of
donor and the Medal Militaire within
hree months, is enjoying well-earned
rest and is talking freely about al
most everything except the bravery
which caused the French Government
to shower honors on him.
Roberts was assistant auditor of
the Michigan Central railroad before
he was selected to be auditor of dis
bursements for the Y. NJ C. A. in
France and handle more than a quar-
ter of million dollars day. He left
for overseas service February 12, was
wounded by a Hun machine gun at
scissors, rescued "Y" secretary
amid a hail of bullets in the Toul Sec
tor and was touched up by German
craftsmanship again at Chateau
Thierry.
For these things he was decorated
chree times by the French, but his
favorite anecdote, out of all the things
he saw and did in the war zone, is
about "a mere mite of a woman"
Anne Walcott, who, because of the
extreme shortage of "Y" secretaries
overseas, has volunteered for the per-
ilous duty of driving truck loads of
Red Triangle supplies to the front.
She is the wife Of the chief clerk of
he naval bureau in Paris, and, ac-
cording to Roberts, is doing work that
thousands of able-bodied men in Ame-
rica are fitted to perform.

ASSURANCE OF VICTORY

In writing about the great war it is
always a pleasure to quote an op-
timist-one who has reason and logic
and facts to back his optimism. Such
a man is Rev. Newell Dwight Hills,
pastor Of Plymouth Church. He has
been in France and knows conditions
thoroughly. He says:
"The great problem is how to carry
on until the October rains, when the
bog will hold the wheels of the Ger
man chariots until we can get another
million Americans across.to France
with full equipment, and $4,000 aero
planes that next winter will bomb
Essen and Berlin out of existence.
AT last the time is approaching
when the full power of the American
millions Of men, American wealth.
American munitions and American
courage will all be localized upon the
German army, and when the stroke
falls it will be like the stroke of ON
impotence.

TRY 1T SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts your liver without making you
sick and cannot salivate

Every druggist in town-your
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great falling off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone
is taking it's place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
it perfectly safe and give better re-
Suits" said prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs but
a few cents, and if it fails to give
easy relief in every case of liver slug
gishness and constipation, you have
only to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults
Take spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliousness, sick head
ache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause in
convenience all the next day like vio-
lent calomel. Take a dose of calo-
mel today and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't
lose a days work! Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
Of vigor and ambition. Adv. 8.

RErRIBurIoN

The aged and feeble ones fall by the
way,
No rest for their night and no shelter
by day:
The cries of the children who hunger
for bread
Are mingled with sobs Of those
mourning their dead.
And it's woes, woes, for Germany,
woes,
For even nation must reap what she
sows.
Devastation and ruin and sickness
and pain,
With mem'ries of days that will ne er
come again,
The groans of the wounded ascend
to the sky,
The heavens look down where the
dead soldiers lie;
And it's woes, We as, for Germany,
woes,
For always a nation must reap what
she sows.
The faces of babies, all waxen, that
lie
On the oceans broad wave, and the
last anguished cry
Of the mother who once pressed hcl
babe to her brest
And who follows him now TO his
watery rest,
Bring woes, woes, to Germany, woes
For surely a nation must reap what
she sows.
The wounded and helpless on sea and
on land,
Who are sought and destroyed by a
treachcrous hand,
| The rape of the women, the crucitied
ones,
Those blinded and mangled by blows
of the Huns,
To Heaven they cry, and the answe,
is Woes,
For Germany surely must reap " al
she sows.
And why all this horror? What i.
the need?
| a nation athirst with ambition ant
greed!
Desire for conquest! Desire 70
power!
But, fastening one, comes the reck
| oning hour
With woes, woes, for Germany, woes
| When guilty and innocent reap whn
she sows. S. w. Z
