How's This for Real Patriotism?

That real patriotism exists among
the colored race in Greenville county
was clearly shown yesterday when
Will Mccullough, negro farmer
living near Grove station, called at
one of the banks in the city and en-
tered his subscription for Liberty
bonds, paying for them in cash. He
was informed by the cashier of the
hank that the bonds were not yet re-
ceived from Washington and that it
would be some little time before they
could be delivered. McCullough's
answer to this was that he not only
was in no hurry for his bonds, but it
would matter very little to him If he
never got anything for his money.
"What I am after is helping the
United States Government, and if |
never see the bonds 1 paid for, it'll
be all right with me-
Chairman John w. Arlington, Of
the Liberty Loan committee, who
told the story yesterday afternoon,
said that if there were more citizens
as patriotic as this colored man, the
campaign for the Third Liberty Loan
in this county would be put over with
MAGNIFICENT success.-Augusta Her

PROCLAMATION TO THE POPULA-
TION OF RHEIMS.

s'In order to ensure sufficiently the
safety of our troops and the tran
guilty of the population of Rheims,
the persons mentioned have been
seized as hostages by the Commander
of the German Army. These hostages
will be shot if there is the least dis
order. On the other hand, if the
town remains perfectly calm and quiet
these hostages and inhabitants will
be placed under the protection of the
German Army.
"The General Commanding.
Rheims, 18th September, 1914"
Beneath this proclamation there
were posted the names of 81 hostages
and statement that others had also
been seized as hostages. The lives
of all these men depended in reality
upon the Interpretation which the
German military authorities might
give to the elastic phrase, "the least
diorder," in the proclamation.
Hugh Gibson, in A Journal from
our Legation in Belgium, page 1874,
explains what was likely to happen:
Another thing is, that on enter
ing a town, they hold the burgomas-
ter, the procurer du roi, and other
authorities as hostages to insure good
behavior by the population. Of
course, the hoodlum class would like
nothing better than to see their nat
ural enemies, the defenders of law
and order, ignominiously shot, and
they do not restrain themselves bit
on account of the hostages.
