introduction, which deals with the
treatment of conquered territory,
seems aC first OF a less brutal and
revolving character, as injury to
property is always less serious than
murder and enslayement of people.
But when the treatment of conquer
ed territory is studied carefully it is
clear that the system shows itself
here in an even more brutal form.
because the systematic exploitation
and Wanton destruction would in
evitably lead to starvation of the
population, especially Of the aged,
feeble, and the children, and to the
forced enslavement of the able-bodi-
ed workers. Furthermore, the re-
suits of these evils will not end with
the war, but will be perpetuated.
The Conquered lands, even after
their freedom, will suffer long and
grievously from the enfeeblement OF
the population caused by the misery
during The occupation of the c0un-
tries by the Germans"

WOMEN AS BOND BUYERS

In The Union Times a list of 83
purchasers of Liberty Bonds in the
little town Of Jonesville is printed and
80 of them are women. The individ-
ual purchases of the women are as
large as are those of the men, as a
rule Included in the list are a chap
ter of the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy and the Women's Circle of the
Woodmen of the World.
This showing by the women of
Jonesville is not exceptional in South
Carolina. In all of the cities and
towns the women have purchased
literally, more liberaly, we believe
prOportionately to their property
holdings and earning capacity, than
the men. 1t would scarcely be just to
say that they are more patriotic
than the men, but the idea Of playing
safe" is more firmly placed in their
minds. Many woman in making in
vestments of money has been deceived
they know their lack Of financial ex-
perience, and, so, when q security is
offered the attending risk of which
is negligible, they ego after it,"
Moreover, the women will pay out
of their own savings a much larger
proportion of their subscription for
bonds than the men will. A man will
give his note in bank and take the
chances of raising the money to meet
it, however, he have not cent in his
pocket, but the average woman buy
ing bonds either has all or part of the

The Southern Baptist convention,
now in session at Hot Springs, Ark,
has voted women full and equal rights
with men. The vote was carried by
an overwhelming majority, and was
on motion to amend the convention
constitution. Women now are not on
ly entitled to represent their churches
in the convention, but may be elected
to any Office in the convention. 1t is
not surprising that the Baptists with
:t1,oe'r democratic leanings, should
have taken this step. The surprising
thing is that they should have been
so slow to make the move

We urge upon the ministers of
Union the request of Governor Man
ming that on May 80, be set apart as
a day of fasting and prayer, and par
ticularly the request that all business
houses be closed for one hour and a
great gathering of the people be
held in some suitable place and the
meeting a mammoth prayer service.
The ministers might consult together
and decide wher the meeting is to be
held, and at what hour. Will not Mr..
Speake or Mr. Matheson or Mr..
Blackwelder one or all, take up this
matter and direct it? 1t is presumed
that every business house in the
city will be willing to close for this
one hour. At the Union Mills, Ex-
celsior, Monarch, Buffalo and Otta-
ray, the pastors could also get to-
gether and arrange for a gathering
of the people to prayer.
