OUR BOYS MAKE A RECORD
IN FRANCE

Columbia, Dec.5-Speakine before
the meeting of the South Carolina
council of defense, Senator Christie
Renet told of the exploits of the 3Oth
division in the fighting on the Western
front. Mr.. Benet said he had been
told by officers who knew the facts
that the 3Oth has been recognized as
one of the typical American fighting
units of Pershing's army, and had
Lorne the brunt of the fighting around
Belleau wood. The orders were Is
sued for the first advance to be made
by Australian troops, who were to be
followed to the second objective oy
men of the 3Oth. When the Carolina
BOYS went forward they continued to
advance, reaching the third o51ec-
tive which had been assigned to the
Australians. Their advance was SO
rapid that the Australians could not
follow and the Carolina boys were
caught in a trap, which the Germans
had laid, a number of the enemy be-
ing concealed in a tunnel. When this
was discovered the Carolina boys were
attacked on the front and rear, but
fought their way out with severe loss
es, though receiving the plaudits or
the seasoned Australians. One COM
many duplicated the experiance OF the
famous Lost Battalion" and Senator
lot added that modesty or some
other influence had withheld from
these boys the publicity which their
heroic fighting deserved. Mr.. Benet
had the state council adopt measures
looking to the securing Of the official
facs for arecord to be given to the
newspapers and the state historian.

RED CROSS ROLL CALL !
is SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

K OF all the observances OF
4 Christmas the American people
K have known the one this yeah
K will be most In keeping with the
K true spirit of the day. Self GEN.
4 tered exchanging Of gifts will be
X little in evidence because our
4 resources are pledged to much
K more important use.
K The Red Cross Christmas Roll
4 Call is conceived in the new
K light. When the American man,
4 woman or child pays the nomi-
X nal membership dues the action
4 far transcends an ordinary con-
4 tributIon. Wherever people are
K starving, wherever they are sick,
K wherever they lack shelter, the
K Red Cross Christmas Roll Call
K will stand for renewed hope and
4 the promise of eflcaclous relief.
X How necessary, then, that the
4 answer of the American people
4 should be Overwhelming. The
X amount Of money raised Is Sec
X ondary. The world will measure
X our humanitarian purpose by the
X number of names enrolled. II
4 the word goes out that FORTY
4 MILLION Americans have Joined
4 the Red Cross or a greater num-
4 Der all mankind will be revived
4 by the practical proof Of our
4 idealism.
r Those who have been on the
r firing line know that the work
+ Of the Red Cross will not end
X with the proclalming Of peace.
4 In many respects the demands
4 upon the Red Cross will Inc
+ crease as new fields Of relief are
4 opened. The readjustment pc
X riod will present many opportu-
X mites for sharing our abundance
+ with our world neighbors, who
X are at rock bottom in every hui
K man respect. -"
4 Every American will be think
h ing along this line because the
h needs in Europe and Asia will
X stand forth with insistent call to
X his and her sympathy. In the
+ Red Cross Christmas Roll Call
4 the aim is to place the entire
r American people on record as
X approving the Red Cross spirit.
X Such approval will make every
+ dollar expended abroad have a
4 sacred significance to the bene-
4 ficiarieS.
X To register YOUR approval of
X the Red Cross all you need is a

ces of their failure, says the Youths
Companion.
In the years of plenty Joseph IN
Egypt had the good sense to lay in a
stock Of wheat against the coming
dearth. Even Germany, boastful OF
{ it's foresight and efficiency, had no
Joseph; or If it had one, 1t was Jo-
seph that confined his craftsmanship
to accumulating guns and amnuni-
ton and boots and shoes rather than
grain. Nor had Great Britain states
man bold enough to act upon the fire.
quent urgings Of farsighted students
of the food question that great stores
of foodstuffs be established while sup
plies could be obtained. Nothing ex'
cept the British command of the seas
has saved the people of the British
Isles from a choice between starva-
ton and surrender.
It is unlikely that the lesson of the
last four years has been lost upon the
ruling powers Of Europe. In every
country that has to import grain and
meat we shall see measures to estab-
lish and to fill granaries and store
houses as a protection against bad
harvests and foreign enemies. Ger
many would have saved its people
from hardship and misery If it had
adopted that coursd Great Britain
need not have feared any serious dis
aster from the U-boat, If it had not
been dependent upon a hand-to-mouth
supply of food from abroad.
In order to carry out plans to &C.
cumulate food in the countries that
produce too little there must be an in
crease Of production everywhere. In
normal times the supply Of grains
and meats the world over is only a
little more than the amount consum-
ed. A widespread policy of accumula-
ton without an increase Of supply
would derange all the markets of the
world and might bring about such an
unequal distribution OF supplies as
would threaten famine in large dis
tricts. Consequently every country vill
try to increase the crop areas and to
cultivate them more intensiyely.
Not only that. There must be bet
ter as we'll as larger crops-oetter in
quality, because they give a nutritive
and also better because they give a
large yield to the acre. The work OF
creating and introducing the varieties
hat will meet those requirements is
already going on. We hear something
of the share that our own Department
of Agriculture has in it, but little Of
what is being done abroad. The gov
srnment of India. where the food Ques-
ton is always acute, has made great
progress in improving both the quail
ty and the yield of wheat. 1t has pro,
duced one variety that in some places
has given the astonishing amount o1
fifty five bushels to the acre and thai
has brought higher price bushel
to the farmers than ordinary grain
Its success with 1ice has been scarce
1y less.
No one can tell just what the result
will be when every country is trying
to safeguard itself in the matter Of
food, either by increasing its own pro
duction or by drawing from other land:
larger amounts than are needed fol
immediate consumption. But one thing
lis certain; the farmer will still bt
the very corner stone Of the nation.

DEFERRED
CLASSIFICATION
FOR FARM LAB0RERS.

It is announced that new draft of
about 10000 men per month viii be
called during the remainder of this
year, and the provost. marshal general
has ordered that men actively, assid-
uously and completely engaged in the
planting or cultivation of crop, but
who are listed in class of the draft
and come within the new quota, should
be deferred until the end of the new
quota"
To get the benefit of this new call
is necessary that the men under it
make affidavit saing their claims.
Farm boys should Immediately execute
and file with the local boards, affida-
Wits showing that they are completely
engaged in planting and cultivation Of
a crop. Such affidavits should be
signed by two or three neighbors who
have personal knowledge of the work
in which these men are engaged.
(a)-Younk farmers should attend
to this at once. Those who fail to file
affidavits showing proof that they are
wholly engaged in farm work will not
be exempted or deferred if their turn
should come in filling this quota.
(b)-And farmers whose sons and
hired hands are in this Glass | should
have no hesitation in themselves max
ing out and filing such affidavits, and
they should lose no time in doing so.
FurlOughs of Troops for Farm Work.
Form 1886, provost marshal gener-
aPs office, together with Form &C,
which explains it's use, may be obtain
ed from the local board. Farmers
whose sons or hired men have already
been called to camp, and who wish
them released on furlough for farm
work, should at once secure copy Of
form 1886, execute it, and send it to
the commander of the camp where his
SON or hired man is now located.
1t should be noted that furloughs
will not be granted to men who have
attained rank above that of first
sergeant, that such furloughs will be
for short periods only and largely for
seeding and harvesting times, and all
furloughed men will be recalled when
their regiment is ordered overseas.
AS wide publicity as possible, thru
the press and otherwise, should be Civ
en- to these matters at once, so that the
farmers can do what the government
expects Of them in helping to win the
war. Very truly yours,
