An unfortunate Incident.

That Manning-Tillman incident is
unfortunate, especially for Governor
Manning. AS the Greenwood Index
very properly states, Governor Man
ming should have exercised frankness
toward Senator Tillman by going to
him with his personal views as to the
political outlook, instead of going to
Burleson or to President Wilson.
A statement concerning politics made
by a governor carries usually greater
weight than a similar statement made
by a citizen from the rank and file.
Senator Tillman very naturally want
ed the report to the effect that the
administration in Washington is be-
hind one of his opponents, set at
rest. We believe that Senator Tillman
has been benefited by having the en-
tire matter laid before the public.

American Women Brave.

That the Germans concentrated
their air forces upon destroying hos
pitfalls in France, killing Red Cross
nurses and others by the hundreds,
Just at this time when an appeal was
made to American women to volun-
teer as Red Cross nurses for duty in
Europe, can scarcely be regarded as
a coincidence. 1t was rather scheduled
for this particular time in the hope
that it would strike terror to the
hearts Of American women and cause
them to remain at home. Our women
are not made of that kind of stuff.
The Germans have misjudged them.
Instead of keeping these angels OF
mercy from going to Europe, they
will accept the challenge and go over
seas in larger numbers. American
women are willing to stand side by
side with our men in this fight for
humanity, and there will be no letting
up on their part until victory shall
be perched upon our banners.

No Short Weights Tolerated.

There are degrees of dishonest men
Mark you, not different degrees of
honesty or dishonesty, but some men
are more ~flagrantly dishonest than
others. And about the most dishonest
of men, in this time of great stress
and strain of the pocket nerve, is
the one who gives short weight-on-
ly IA or Is ounces to the pound Sew
eral days ago a proprietor of a meat
market in Columbia was fined $40
fer not giving full weight to a Gus
toner. Instead of being permitted to
pay out of the trouble with the coin
that had been dishonesty taken from
others, he should have been made to
wear stripes.
Had he stolen a whole cow he
would not have been allowed to pay
out of the trouble and stealing ounce
by ounce from hundreds of patrons
who trusted him was just as great
an infraction of the moral and civil
law as stealing the whole cow from
one man.

Economic Importance of Trees.

The value of trees to mankind can
scarcely be overestimated. There are
many different kinds of trees and
each one has a special use.
Let us look at some of the uses.
Most of the trees are sawed into lum-
Der for building purposes but some
are used in their form for telegraph
poles, masts of ships, and timbers
of mines. Wood-pulp, from which
most of our paper is made is produc-
ed from small spruce trees. W. also
get many by-products from this tree
which are very valuable. From the
pine come tar, pitch, turpentine and
resin. From the bark of the hemlock
we formerly tanned leather. Maple
trees supply sugar and syrup. The
most important use of forests is to
prevent floods and freshetS. Floods
and freshets each year do millions
of dollars worth of damage in the
destruction of bridges, Buildings and
other property. When water flows off
rapidly from the hills the valuable
form of soil is lost.
There are many ways of destroying
forests, such as fires, which is moth
ing but carelessness. Forest fires de-
stroy not only the trees but render
large territories useless by burning
up the humus or organic part of the
soil. Then trees are cut and planting
does not keep pace with cutting.
The forests of the United States
cover about 550,O00,O00 acres, or
more than one fifth of the total area
Yellow pine, which supplies one-third
of tn lumber consumed in the United
States ranks first in value; white pine
second, and Douglas fir third. Scien-
tifc forestry is now practiced on
about 80 per cent. of the public for
ests and about 2 per cent. of the
wood lands privately owned. Only
about one-ffth of the wooded area
of the Unitd States is under govern
ment control.
After we see the great Importance
of trees we will all agree that scien-
tifc forestry should be practicd on a
100 per cent. basis.

May 81, 1918.

The fifth annual celebration of

took place in the High School au-

Mr.. Elwyn Moore presided with

Helpful Meeting For Colored
People.

Alarge number of colored people
gathered at Belts Academy Sunday,
the occasion being their annual mis-
sionary convention. Having compiet
ed the routine business, the afternoon
was given to two very helpful ad-
dresses. The exercises were presided
over by A. w. Nicholson, the princi-
pal of Belts Academy who requested
Mr.. ]. L. Quinby of Graniteville to
introduce the speakers. Mr.. Quinby
is not a successful business man but
an active, Jealous Christian man who
is always ready to lend a helping
hand to every worthy cause. He is
one of the trustees of Belts Acade-
my and gives the principal helpful
cooperation.
Mr.. Quinby presented Mrs. Annie
Iredell Rembert of Columbia, the
field secretary of the State Board of
Health who devotes her time chiefly
to preventig and stamping out tuber-
culosis. She gave the hundreds of col
ored people assembled a very instruc-
tive and helpful address on improv-
ing their manner of living, their
home conditions and the proper prep
aration and serving of food. Mrs,
Rembert in speaking of what the
State Board of Health is doing for
tubercular victims among the colored
people stated that district hospitals
will be established in which they can
receive the proper treatment. Con-
vincing proof of the effectiveness OF
her address can be found in the vol
untary offer of A. w. Nicholson, the
principal of Belts Academy, to do
nate SO or 100 acres of land as a
site for a hospital for the second con-
gressional district. The board OF
trustees of the school w 800 acres.
Mrs. Rembert was followed by
Mrs. Rebecca Walton who is employ
ed by the State board of health to
work among the colord people. She
likewise made a very effective adj
dress. After appealing to the mem
bers of her race to be loyal and pa
triotic, she spoke of disease germs
and how to escape them.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. L. Minis also
spoke briefly upon being requested
by Mr.. Quinby who is actively en-
gagged in the uplift and betterment
of the colored people.

Flower Mission and Relief report
which is as follows:
Committees were appointed for the
County Home picnic on Saturday.
and for the entertainment for
college girls on June IA at the Edge
field Opera House. The consideration
of the question of wheat conserVa-
ton was also brought up and the use
of barley as a substitute suggested,
and an article on this subject and a
number of barley recipes published
in that connection. The flour is being
sold by Mr.. L. T. May. A number OF
ladies present proved their patriot
ism as well as their loyalty to the
w. C. T. u. by telling of their barley
experiences All who had tried it ex-
pressed qualification at the results.
At the close Of this business, Mrs.
Annie Rembert of the State Board
of Health, was introduced to the I'm
ion and visitors and gave a very COM
prehensive and practical exposition
of the duties of us all not only to
the tubercular patients in the camps,
but to those left at home and an ap-
peal for the conservation of the man
hood of our country from this trou-
BILE.
She also told of the Sanitarium
work in Columbia, and the plans for
these institutions for the colored peo-
pie, stating that Belts Academy
trustees have already offered from
so to 100 acres for the location OF
a s~anitarium for colored people.
Following Mrs. Rembert, Miss Car

the Surgical Dressing class at the
Red Cross rooms, told of the work
of this class, and the wonderful dis
covery that fatality in wounds was
caused by germs and how the stand

by the Red Cross are the savers of

women, afar from the scene of battle
may learn and are learning to make
these dressings and send them across

and are largely instrumental in saw
ing the lives of our boys over there.
