The Call to service.

We wish to issue this urgent appeal
to the women Of Sumter to help IN
nursing the sick of our city. The need
just now is very pressing. We knew
that the people Of our city are tnof-
oughly aroused to the needs OF this
crisis. We have no desire or no rea-
son to question the presence OF CO.
operative interest. On the contrary,
we have many reasons to believe that
our people are enthusiastically awake.
We know that some Of our women
are nursing the sick; we know also
that some of our teachers who have
been in Sumter only a short time have
given their unstinted services night
and day to the relief of humanity; we
know that our high school girls are
doing all their work at home to enable
their mothers to have time to nurse
the sick. The manifestation OF co.
operative service on the part of these
has been just as fine as it could be:
But still there is need: there is great
need. There is need of help just at
this time when the situation is at It's
acutest stage. Some Of our workers
themselves now have influenza and,
of course, can no longer serve. Some
Of them have from one to three cases
in their own homes and their duty Is
there. Others, while not i'll, are worn
out and should be relieved.
We believe that the influenza Sit
uation is clearing up somewhat in our
city: but just now there are some
who are dangerously i'll and many
others, while not in a serious cond1-
ton, need the nursing that will en-
able them to have a favorable reeov-'
cry.
Experience in nursing is not essen
tial. In many cases it is necessary
only for some one to be present to
give medicine and nourishment at
the proper time Care will be exer-s
cised al the assignment Of nurses to
patients who are seriously i'll. We.
need volunteers and, we feel perfectly
sure of ready response on the part
of the women Of Sumter. They have
never failed: they will not fail now.
Just as soon as you have read this,
please report in person to number 113
West Calhoun street and let the chair
man of the relief committee know
that you are ready to serve and that
you are willing to be assigned where
you can render the most effective ser
vice.
Let us all pull together now while
the crisis calls and look forward to
the brighter days that lie ahead.
Respectfully and urgently submit

others, the performing Of the Masters
work for the poor, the rich, the high,
the low. He has added to the lustre
of the medical profession. He has left
to his children heritage more prec-
ious than wealth. His death is as glor-
ious as though he had fallen on the
battlefield He died in the quietude
of our splendid asylum for the sick

did work, his sacrifice for the govern

DR.. Ryttenberg was a popular mem
ber Of the local Lodge of Elks. His
popularity in his home town was we'll
attested by the endorsement he re-
ceived from his birthplace, Sumter,
South Carolina, on being admitted to
the splendid and patriotic brotherhood
of Elks, through membership in Port
Chester Lodge, No. S63, on his locat-
ing here in succession to DR.. Samuel
Forstot. His brothers Of the local
lodge sincerely regret the loss of so
valued a member, and deplore the
sorrow which his death has created
in this village. A good fellow, a
splendid neighbor, most valued cit
uen, the village, the lodge and his
friends generally mourn with his fam
lily the taking away of so good and
considerate man. May God in His
All-wise Providence heal the hearts
that have been made sore, and bless
those who so largely depend on the
love and efforts of so good a father

as; Ia aborerS: ."They made splendid Ia
borers, and were in back of the lines
during the German drive Of March,
1918. No doubt many Of them were
captured by the Germans at that time.
Hence the outbreak Of it in the Ger
man army and it's rapid spread in
Spain" But even if the dates fitted,
which they do not, why should the
Chinese have infected the German
army before they did the French
army? In view of the fact that by
February the disease had reached the
Crimea-and that even then the Ger
man army was on the shores of the
Black sea, a much closer connection
with Asia is established and it must
be remembered that from January
German soldiers were being trans
ferred from Russia to the Western
front. Not impossibly this treachery
had something to do with Ludendorf's S
defeat.
Even if the disease has taken a far
less terrible feIm than in asia, it is
quite serious enough to call for the
utmost vigilance. What it is called
does not make it worse, but its close
connection with the most dreaded OF
all plagpAs may induce the public to
take in season the needed precaution-
aEe1n easures. "a Eery grave situa-
emhR Yeseason-jh necauthm NH nm
tion," says DR.. King, now confronts
US; every patient with the epidemic
should be auarantined and everything
possible should be done now at its
outset to prevent its spread" The
measures are for professional skill to
devise yet the public can help by
eaking-the matter seriously, but cour-
ageous1y, avoid panic and complying
Loyalty with all regulations that may
be found needful. If this is done the
epidemic may soon pass.

Falls In Liae of Duty.

The death Of DR.. Charles Rytten-
berg in the United Hospital on Tues
day may not be strictly classed as
death on the battlefield" but none
the less he is one OF the indirect pen
alties we are paying for the war. He
had not enlisted in SO far as pledging
his life and service to the United
States government by enlistment, but
in the most strict sense of duty he
had done more. He had given OF his
valuable time and talents to the
government without pay. Days and
nights he labored on the local regis
tration board, performing perhaps the
most important and valuable work OF
that essential body. We know per-
sonally that the eXacting work of the
registration board, together with his
private practice, had sorely exhausted
his energies, and knowledge that he
could not continue the extreme de-
mands on his vital powers compelled
him to make formal resignation to
the local board and government. But
his intelligent services were deemed
so valuable that his associates on the
board and gentlemen interested in the
success Of the war, joined in request
ing DR.. Ryttenberg to withdraw his
resignation and continue to serve the
local board and government. There
is no doubt but what relaxation from
his onerous duties would have been
invaluable in restoring his breaking
constitution. His private practice,
which was excessive at times, was suf-
ficient to tax the energies Of real
vigorous, healthy man, but disre-
garding that exaction and his person
al feeling and condition, DR.. Rytten-
berg proved his great patriotism by
waving his personal feeling and con-
waving his personal wishes and condl-
ton and continued to give that which
was best in him to his country-re-
gardless of what consequences might
be. Great satisfaction was expressed at
the splendid sacrifice and courage OF
the excellent young man and physi-
clan.
With that saving wisdom Of the
successful practitioner, DR.. Rytten-
berg so adjusted his work after with
drawing his resignation as to regain
in measure the physical forces
which had been severely drawn on. 1t
is likely that his sage decision and
course of action might have proved
successful had not the prevailing in
tsuenza intervened. It is generally be-
lieved that no i'll would have followed
the sacrifice of DR.. Ryttenberg, mad
not a more than double eXertion been
placed on him in brief time. The
demands on his services, with the ap-
proach of the existing influenza, not
only made impossible the outstanding
of vital force, but broke down what
had been badly shattered in the dual
work of the government and his prac-
tice-the greatest Of human endeavor.
