NOT THE ONLY One.
There Are other Kingstree Peo-
ple Similarly Situated.

Can there be any stronger proof
offered than the evidence of Kings
tree residents? After you have read
the following, quietly answer the
question.
H D Cantley, farmer, r F D No
l, Kingstree, says: IF it weren't
for Doan's Kidney Pills, l don't
know what would do. l am out a
whole lot and caught cold in my
back, which hurt me terribly and
interfered with my work. The
paine were terrible and spread to
the back of my head. l often had
headaches and dizzy spells and
sometimes was so dizzy, l would
fall over and once l hurt myself.
l always felt tired and languid and
any noise would irritate me. 1
couldn't rest comfortably at night
on account of the too frequent ac-
ton of my kidneys and the secre-
tions burned in passage and were
highly colored. 1t was a blessing
when l heard of Doan's Kidney
Pills. l only took three boxes and
they cured me entirely of all these
complaints. | can't say enough for
this remedy"

RAISE YOUR OWN FOOD.

Comparison of the present food
situation in this State with that of
1915 and 1914, and a casual refiec-
ton upon the fact that we are just
BEGINNING to feel the effects of the
great war; in its relation to our
food supply, any one with even Or
binary intelligence should at once
perceive the Importance of raising
more food stuff this year than ever
before. South Carolina produced
last year the largest food crops she
ever raised but in the face eff pres
ent conditions food production must
be much greater in 1918 than it
was in 1917.
MIR Clarence Ousley, assistant Sec
retary of agriculture, says in mes
sage that is being sent broadcast in
to the Southern States:
If the South neglects this year
to provide her own food and feed,
she is likely to suffer serious priva-
ton, and she will put burden up.
on the nation which may prolong
the war and even imperil our VIC
tory.
The plain, hard truth is that
with 40 million people withdrawn
from productive industries and en-
gagged in the business of destruction,
it is not humanity possible for pro-
duction on the whole to exceed
normal demand. The question is
whether production can equal ne
cessitous demand.
1T is the highest demand of pa
triotism-it is the first requirement
of living-tbat in 1918 every State,
every county. every neighborhood,
every farmer. be as nearly self
sustaining as possible"

Electricity For
Five Cents a Day.

1t is impossible, of course, to
say definitely just what Delco-
Digit will cost to operate. This
will vary with the amount of cur
rent used and some people use
more than others.
But we are able to state the
usual cost on the average farm.
This is about five cents a day;
and can be verified by asking any
Delco-Light user in this county.
Can you imagine anything else
that you could buy for five cents
a day that would give you any,
thing like as much comfort or
help you half as much in your
work?

A Riddle-Who Can Answer!

Adam, God made out of dust, but
thought it best to make me first;
So | was made before the man, to
answer Gods most holy plan.
My body God did make complete. but
without arms or legs or feet;
My ways and acts he did control. but
to my body gave no soul;
A living being | became. and Adam
gave to me my name.
From his presence l then withdrew,
and more of Adam never knew;
l did my makers law obey,n nor from
it ever went astray;
Thousands of miles / 60 in fear. but
seldom on the earth appear;
For purpose wise, which God did see,
he put a living soul in me;
A soul from ME my God did claim,
and took from me my soul again,
For when from me that soul had fled,
was the same as when first made;
And without hands or feet or soul, |
travel on from pole to pole.
| labor hard by day and night, to fal.
len man l give great light.
Thousands of people. young and old,
will by my death greatlight behold,
No right nor wrong can | conceive,
the Scriptures cannot believe;
Although my name therein is found,
they are to me an empty sound.
No fear of death doth trouble me.
real happiness ne'er shall see. \
To heaven l shall never 60, or to the
grave or hell below.
Now when these lines you sloWlyread,
70 search your Bible with allspeed,
For that my names recorded there,
/ honestly to you declare.

The gardening season is at hand

there is no excuse for the existence
of this element in Kingstree at this

POSES POEM ON OUR FLAG.
Editor County Record:
desire space in your paper tell of
some things soldier has to do while
preparing to cross the big pond; also
a few of the hardships we endure,
for | can mention but afew of them.
The first thing soldier learns is to
obey orders, and all say, They can
not make you obey orders, but they
can surely make you wish you had
obeyed them" Then he has to learn
right and left face and about face
and the manual of arms. This is all
very interesting and good for any
man if he will only pay attention.
Then We learn to shoot rifle. Al
most every man thinks he knows
how to do this. but he doesn't, and
when he gets into the army he will
find out that he knows nothing about
rifle.
Next we learn to fight with bayo-
nets. This is difficult but is some
thing good soldier must learn, for
all true Americans are trying to
learn anything and any way to put
the Germans on the run, and believe
me, when the grand old goth division
gets over there they will run. for we
are learning to fight them with cold
steel. By that l mean. with our bay
onets in hand-to-hand fight.
The other morning one of my tent
mates got up from his peaceful
slumbers with the mumps. My cap
tain came around little later and
gave me orders to move my tent to
the quarantine station, where | now
am. We have about two or three
hundred men here, and the worst Of
it is, we cannot get out anywhere.
The cooks have to bring US our
meals, and guards are all around US,
of course. We have to drill but six
hours daily, while eight is required
of the other boys.
The other day one of my good
friends, | know not who, sent me a
copy of your paper. 1t was just like
a letter from home, and you cannot
know how much good it did me.
Last night while one of my friends
and myself were sitting by the fire
with the rain and sleet falling out
side, we composed the following
poem, which we call
"OLD GLORY"
There is a grand and glorious banner,
That floats over the land and sea,
And it loved by our Allies.
But it is nearer to you and me.
And its name will ever linger.
And its folds shall flutter free,
Until the Chief Of all great buglers
Has sounded taps for me.
And from then on down the ages
She will fly with love and trust
Until the soldiers of tomorrow
Are asleep beneath the dust.
And when she's defeated and laid away
There will be no one to weep,
For every true American
Will be in peaceful sleep.
The sleep that knows no waking
BY the trumpets here below,
But the call that wakes that slumber
Will be the final blow.
Some of the boys were little slow,
But they are all here at last;
And we know there'll be no errors
When we look back Ger the past.
For we are going across like soldiers

Next Council Meeting

The Maine boys in the army Will
probably not vote at tie september
elections, according to the present
attitude of the war department.
Maine was not alone in having
trouble in providing for her soldier
boys voting in the recent primary
election and the war department mas
evidently decided that K is not FEAST
bic, with tho constant changing
about of the soldiers and the constant
shipments of men overseas, to at
tempt to vote in the military camps
next fall.
