TYPHOID AND HOGS.

Typhoid fever is still rampant in
the city and so are sanitary hog
pens, an invention of the present
city council.
All old residents know when we
had an epidemic of typhoid in this
town with every recurring summer.
All recent residents know that the
city has been comparatively free
from typhoid for all the years we
were free of the hog pest.
Everybody knows that, while there
has been no great increase in the
typhoid rate in other cities which
have been kept free from hogs, there
have been more cases of this dread
disease in Abbeville this year than
in the last ten years.
These facts, it seems to US, should
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1918-10-11

ell something for any reasonable
man. If the members Of the city
council are reasonable men, as they
are supposed to be, may we not hope
that they will do the only reasonable
hing and get rid of hogs before an
ther year comes around.
1t is true that the city council has
tempted to throw certain restric-
tions around the raising of hogs, but
oese restrictions have been made
less and less stringent, and if re-
1orts which come to us are true,
there are hog pens in a quarter of a
mile of the police headquarters,
which in no way comply with the
even lenient restrictions of the city
council. 1t all goes to show that it
will not do to play with fire.
1t is useless to argue the question
with those men who say they have
raised hogs all these years and have
not had typhoid. Men are being shot
at on the war fronts in France every
day who are not killed, but that does
not prove that the German bullets
are not deadly things. Some people
are immune from disease, as others
live charmed lives, but hogs are
breeders of typhoid according to the
best medical advice we have, and we
follow the doctors in their line.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER II, 1918.
COME ACROSS, GENTLEMEN!


beville is discouraging indeed. With
something like three hundred thou
sand dollars to be raised in Abbe-
vile and vicinity only the sum of
fifty thousand dollars has been sub
scribed. Where the other money is
to come. from is a question.
In other towns we notice the names
of bankers, and cashiers of banks,
and leading business men, who are
giving five and ten times the amounts
subscribed by the leading bankers
and business men in Abbeville. A
banker in Abbeville worth seventy
five thousand dollars who subscribes
one thousand dollars, and then talks
about people doubling their sub
scriptions, need expect no response.
He is plainly not doing his part.
When he has done his duty, and then
doubles, people will listen to him.
A corporation in Abbeville and its
stockholders, worth million dollars,
need not expect people to take it
seriously when it subscribes for
both the corporation and its stock
holders the paltry sum of five thou
sand dollars. They should subscribe
twenty-five thousand dollars, can do
so, and pay the whole sum without
borrowing a dollar. y
The Abbeville Cotton Mills has not
vet subscribed to Liberty Loans any
hing like it should have subscribed.
For that reason it should subscribe
fifty thousand dollars in this drive in
order to make up for it's failure to
do it's duty in the past. Let its Off
GERS speak, and tell where they stand.
The men in Abbeville who have
money are responsible for the assess
ment against this town. It is their
money and assets which makes the
charge against US and they shall not
escape their plain duty by making
people already in debt assume the
burden by borrowing their money at
seven and eight per cent. and then
loaning it to the government at four
and quarter per cent. The men in
Abbeville who have money are not
doing their duty. We can call their
names if necessary. We will call
them if they do not come across. We
have seen the burden of the public
cast on people of small means long
enough. The time has come for the
money-lender and the money-maker
to come across. He must come
across.

ORIGIN AND USE
OF SERVICE FLAG
For Whom Stars May Be Put On
Hanner-Army Captain Inver-

tor.
! The Official Bulletin is published
daily under order of President Will
son by the committee on public in
formation, George Creel, chairman.
The article on the service flag, in
The Bulletin was prepared by >Bri-
gadier General N. William McChes-
ney, formerly of the Illinois Nation
al Guard, who has been assigned as
a lieutenant colonel, judge advocate,
National army. He wrote thus of
the orogin of the service flag.
"The service flag idea, so far as
learned, is an entirely novel one, the
credit for the conception of which
appears to be due to R. L. Queisser,
of Cleveland, Ohio, who designed and
patented the present flag. Mr.. Queis-
ser was formerly captain of the ma
chine gun company, Fifth Ohio in
! fantry (now the 18th U. S. Infantry
from which he was retired because
of an accident. He thus states the
origin of the flag: Shortly after
! April 6, 1917, when war with Ger
many was declared, the thought
came to me that both of my sons,
who were still officers in the guard,
would again be called out, and I
wondered if I could note some sign
or symbol by which it might be
=. known that they were away in their
country's service and one which
would be to their mother a visible
sign of the sacrifice her sons were
making. The inspiration of the SER
vice flag came to me in that manner.
"He then designed the flag. The
city council of East Cleveland adopt
dan ordinance providing that one
be presented to the family of every
! soldier and sailor entering the SER
vice and it soon received favorable
recognition elsewhere, so that it was
suggested to him that he patent it,
which he did, design patent No.
51464 being issued to him, November
6, 1917.
"The propriety of a former army
officer patenting the flag and profit
ing by it fro m sales has been the
subject of some discussion in the
press and in Congress, resulting in
an agitation in favor of the adoption
by the Government, of an official SER
vice flag not subject to private con-
troll, which however, has not been
done. In answer to the criticism,
Captain Quisser states that his origi-
nal thought was to present the flag
to the government and that he en-
deavored to do so, and only entered
upon its private manufacture and
popularization when it became ap-I
parent that there was no chance of
it's being made official, and then did
so for the sake of personal pride
rather than with any idea of profit
ing from it. He further states that
he was led to take out a patent in
order that the distribution and quail
ity of the flag might be properly
controlled and to keep it out of the
hands of irresponsible parties, and
that one-half of his royalties from
the sale of the textile flags is given
to the Red Cross.
"The basic idea of the service flag
is that there shall be a star to rep
resent each person serving with the
colors. Congress has recognized as
entitled to representation on the flag,
