CHAPTER IV-Continued.

The dead bodies were seized by two
men, one at the head and the other at
the feet, and thrown into the ditch.
COrpSes were handled exactly as was
n board to be used in building bridge.
Legs and arms were tossed likewise
into the ditch. Dead horses and dam
aged batteries had to be removed. We
were not strong enough to remove dead
horses. We managed to capture horse
which was running wild and hitched
him to the carcaSSes. COrpSeS hanging
In the trees were left there. No one
cared anything about them.
Canteens and knapsacks of the dead
were searched for food and drink and
whatever we found was eaten with the
greatest relish.
French soldiers who had died of
MunstrOke covered the road. OtheES
craWled to right and left of the road
and waited there for relief or death.
We did not dare to help them. The
order was to advance and We had 10
march on and On. The captain told us
we had to pursue the fleeing enemy
with all our strength and much dis
content was manifest on receipt of this
order.
After being on our feet day and
night, Staying like barbarians, taking
NO time to eat or rest, we continued to
receive commands to maintain the pur-
suit with all haste. The captain I'M
derStOod how we felt and tried to
pacify us by friendly conversation.

big demand for houses, and to furnish
homes for their operatives, the Lig-
gett and Myers Tobacco company has

Dinnino Vate Dvnamited.

New Bern-Dr. o. H. Graham, state
veterinarian from Raleigh, is in the
city on business connected with the
destruction of dipping watts in the
county by lawless persons who have
been using dynamite very freely dur
ing the past week or so. He attended
the trial of Albert Purifoy, which was
held at the court house last week.
Purifoy is charged with dynamiting a
vat in the Truitt section of the
county.
DR.. Graham, when interviewed, re-
fused to state what action he expects
to take in the matter, but he let it be
known that the destruction of .Eats
will, by no means, be allowed to put a
stop to the campaign. He intimated
that vigorous action will be taken.
It took from five o'clock in the
afternoon until eleven o'clock at night
to complete the taking of evidence
and the argument Of the attorneys in
the case against Albert Purifoy,
charged with dynamiting a dipping
vat, but it didn't take Squire s. r.
Street very long to decide that the
evidence was sufficient to justify him
to find probable cause to bind the de-
PENDANT over to superior court. In
fact his mind was made up when the
attorney for the prosecution conclud-
ed his address for, without hesitation,
he placed bond for $500.

ROOM FOR SOUND RADIcALIsM.
Saturday Evening Post:

Saturday Evening Post:
They are now talking at Washing
ton of appropriating thirty billion
dollars for the coming fiscal year. We
spend about two per cent of that sum
yearly on our public schools.
Early in the war England began
considering the whole subject Of pub
lie education. The British Labor Party
took an active and influential part in
the reconsideration. Thanks partly to
it's leadership, a decidedly broader
and better scheme of public edoiation
is now being formulated before
Parliament.
Aside from the war itself, no other
question is so important as this. A
bout half our population of school
age is in average attendance at in
stitutions of public instruction
through school year that averages
only one hundred and fifty-nine day
and a great many of those institut-
ions are i'll fitted for their task, with
underpaid teachers. That is our
record.
We spend twice as much for auto
mobiles as for public instructions,
just because we care twice as much
for them. But we should not. After
this war the old plea that no more
money is available will sound so silly
that nobody will have the hardihood
to repeat it.
There is a golden opportunity for
genuine redicalism, for sound labor
politics. Any political organization
with the vision ond integrity to make
a revolution in public education the
leading plank in its platform will be
entitled to the most respectful con-
sideration. There is room and a well
come for all the radicalism whose in
tellectual spacifc gravity is sufficient
to keep its feet on the ground.

CAN YOU FIND A PHONCGRAPH? ?

Whose got a photograph to give!
Records too are needed.
They are to go to Camp Mcclellan,
near Admission, where hundreds of
nusic-hungry boys will make good use
of them.
That neglected phonograph of
yours, which has been silent tor week.
aeuause the family is tired of hearing
it, would cause unlimited joy if IL
were transplanted to Camp Mcclellan
If you can't give up your machine,
maby you can contribute som
records. Go through your cabinet anc
plckout the duplicates and those that
you are so used to that they
have lost their charm for you. The
soldiers will find them fresh and in
teresting. Old-fashioned melodies,
folk songs, band pieces and popular
arias from operas will be mighty well
come.
If you live nearer Admission than
you do to New Orleans ship your
machine or records straight to Assis-
tant Field Director III. S. Miller, Camp
McClennan, Admission, Ala. Otherwise,
send them to Harry T. Howard, di-
rector Of Military Relief, Gulf Divis-
ion of the Red Cross, 225 Postoffice

IS IT you?

There is man in this town who
always acts as brake on the wheels
of progress. Every project that is
broached for the betterment of COM
munity conditions, elicits from him
no more than a grunt of dissent, II
not active opposition. He regards
every man as a rascal until proven
honest. He can see no sincerity in the
most unselfish actions, and can detect
cupidity at the bottom of the greatest
sacrifices. He is a community wet
blanket. is 1T YOU?
There is also in this town man
the opposite of this one. He has a
keen eye for any chance to forward
the interests of his community. Every
proposition for community better
ment, provided it has merit and feasi-
bility, not only has his approval, but
ne at once pulls off his coat and be-
comes one of its most active rooters.
1t takes a heavy jolt to convince him
Of the insincerity Or dishonesty of his
and even then he has more
pity than blame for them. He is
grateful fire on raw day, and res
,ores our confidence as the spring sun
shine after a dreary winter. is IT
IOU?

Increased Salaries for Teachers.

Jackson, Miss, June 28th 1918.
Editor The Sea Coast Echo:
My dear Sir A Committee of bus
iness men and teachers and the Presi-
dent OF Federation OF WomenS CluDS
is now preparing to conduct and in
stitute Statewide campaign for bet
ter salaries for teachers, and in this
worthy effort the influence and as
sistance of the daily press is earnestly
invoked.
Salaries of teachers are very low,
as you Knowles than IN almost any
other field, and, consequently. man!
of the best teachers are leaving the
profession to accept more lucrative
employment.
While the Committee has little or
no funds with which to make this
campaign, it is confidently relying on
the aid and the usual generosity of
the press. A similar campaign has
never before been waged for schools
and teachers.
Enclosed you will find brief editor
ial from the Saturday Evening Post,
which we would be pleased to have
you reproduce In your columns, COM
menting on it at the same time, ed
itorially. From this time, we shall
send you short articles on the ques-
ton, which we would be glad to have
you publish. We must not permit our
schools to break down in this time of
emergency. In the rural public school
lies the hope Of the commonwealth,
and its efficiency is altogether de-
pendent upon the character and quail
fieations of the teachers presiding in
it.
Thanking you in the name of the
teachers of the State, and with kind
wishes, bee to remain
Yours very sincerely,
