GOING AFTER THE KAISER.
Robesen County Boys at Camp Jack
son are in Fine Spirits and Are
Well Cared For.
To the Editor of The Robesonian:

Would it take up too much space
to have a few words from Robson
county boy at Camp Jackson? We
are going to catch the Kaiser if the
other boys don't get him before we
get there. A jolly 95 left Lunberton
singing songs of the Kaiser-"We are
going to catch the Kaiser over there. %
It's hard to leave our homes and
our farms that we have stated and
march off to war, but our country
calls us and we need not fret, for we
are going to do our bit. Mothers,
wives, and loved ones, you need not
fret, it is for you that we are fight
ing. Our homes we are going to
free. liberty we are going to have,
that's what we are going to offel our
selves for.
We got here Wednesday morning
about daylight. One Of the boys that
had been at camp for awhile asked
me if the whole State had come in
this morning. We arranged in COM
pany and am in a company that has
lots Of my old friends. It don't seem
so much like we are from home a.
last but we know we are because we
are mostly boys who have rever STAY
ed away from home much.
Our company had q lecture from one
of the officers and he said that the
other officers were watching our com
pany. We have the honor of the
quickest to learn the military train
ing. We have one of the best set of
officers that we know of; lots of the
old boys that know US and the
officers say so.
Boys Of Robson, we have a fine
good place at Camp Jackson. Of
course, we are rushed on account Of so
many at a time at one place, but we
have room to. take care of any one
that comes in. Don't you doubt C1-

MIR. D. w. McNeill's Annual Fish

Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Red Springs, June 1O.-On Friday
evening Mr. D. w. McNeill, that
prince of clever Scotchmen, gave his
annual fish fry to the members of the
brotherhood class of the Presbyterian
church and their families and invited
guests, which included the various
pastors and officers of the other
churches of the town, with their TAM
lilies, DIR. Bridgman of Flora Macdon-
aid college, Rev. ]. W. Goodman and
family of Antioch. The fish fry was
given at Lakewood park (Johnson's
pond) one mile from town. The fish
had been caught in advance and Mr..
McNeill had secured the services of
hotel Red Springs chief cook in their
preparation. The guests, numbering
more than sixty, were unequal to the
occasion. After all had eaten to their
entire satisfaction there were more
than the proverbial five basketsfull
gathered up. Before bidding their
host adieu the guests rendered to him
unanimous vote Of thanks, the Ia
dies exercising fully their right OF
suffrage.
Mr.. McNeill makes this an annual
occasion and "blessed are they who
are so fortunate as to be numbered
among. the elect" because they fee
like Peter Of old, "it was good to be

Special to The Robesonian.

ODSCIGl TO Inc ROO0SOnl9n.
Fairmont, June THE union re-
vival which was to have begun at
Fairmont May 26th, began June End
The delay Of one week was due to the
fact that the evangelist, Rev. Luther
3. Brldgers, was engaged in assisting
with the Red Cross drive Just preced.
ing the time for our meeting to begin
The meeting began with a large at.
tendance and the attendance is in
creasing each day. The meeting is
being held in the new tobacco ware
house, and already the attendance has
about reached the capacity of the
seats as first arranged, and arrange
ments are in hand to increase the seat
ing as the attendance may demand
and while we are expecting, and in
dlcatlons are now, that the attend
ance is likely to be doubled at an early
date, we hope to be able to accommo-
date everyone who may attend.
The preaching is truly great, and
its power is already being felt. The
evangelist says that others may
preach what they may, but that he
has never yet grown tired of the old
story Of Jesus and His love, and with
"Woe be unto me if 1 preach not

strongholds Of satan in the name OF
Jesus of Nazareth, and already the

He moves upon the hearts and con-
sciences of the people.
Bro. Bridgers is a living witness to
the suficiency Of Gods grace to keep
man in the sorest trials. To him
came the misfortune of his wife ard
three little boys being burned to death
at the home of her father few years
ago, when he was far away from
them, engaged in the service of his
master; and yet he says that while al
times it seems hard for him to un.
derstand why God in his wisdom saw
fit to thus allow his wife and little
boys to be taken from him without
even the privilege Of being present
to fight for them, he does not 1ues.

he was very careful ana very cautious
during the early rounds. But as the
fight went on Johnson came to know
that Jeffries was not the Jeffries OF
old, and was absolutely harmless. so
the negro mapped out a methodlcai
plan OF battle and gradually beat down
Jeffries until the fifteenth rould came.
johnson opened with furious at
tack and after driving JEFF around the
ring slammed him against the ropes.
The men in Jeff's corner knew that the
end was near. SO, rather than have
Jeffries suffer the humiliation OF a
Knockout they tossed in the sponge
and the hope OF the white race was
gone
A few years ago / saw Je1ries in
Los Angeles and the talk drifted back
to the fight. / said TO Jim:

fore that fght2''
"Of course not" answered Jim.

In print. Then / told the newspaper
boys that 1t wasn't so; that 1t was a
fake, pure and simple. But, OF course,
the story had gotten around and the
fellows hated to print retraction of
their original statements and so ! just
