Our community wac shocked yes
tcrday afternoon to receive the sad

The sincere sympathy Of the whole
town goes to those so sorely be-
reavcd.
Clarendon County is in the grip Of
the "Flu." Hundreds of cases are scat =
tered all over the county and the doc
tors are worked day and night. Stores
are short of hclp--farm laborers are
laid up. In fact business generally is
at a standstill. Few homes are not
invaded with one case at least, and in
some households there are four and
five cases. 1t is almost impossible
for the doctors to take care of the
calls that come to them 1t is claimed
at down in the Santec river section
tlcre are many negro fanilies that
are unable to get medical attention.
There have been very few deaths in
the county so far, no doubt due to the
pronrtncss Of the physicians IN re-
spending to the calls, and the distanc !,
between the MISUNDERSTANDING the
patients to get the benefit of the pure
air. 1t is to be hoped that the crest
has been reached in this county.

SOME REASONS WHY
WHEAT MUST BE SAVED
- Man Cannot Think. Work or Flight
When He Is Hunsry'-We Must
Feed Our Soldiers.


"We have the preservation Of the
world on our hands. Every single
living human being in this republic,
from ocean to ocean, should make it
his or her special purpose to save
food"
These are the words OF e. F. Cullen,
personal representative Of Herbert C.
Hoover, In a recent address.
Men will resist any power but the
power of starvation" said Mr.. Cullen.
Hunger in the final analysis, is the
only force that can weaken nation
and demoralizc sn army. Food is
strength, and without a perpetual sup
ply Of strength, the world can stand
In danger Of lettering, weakening and
falling into utter chaos. A man can
not think, work or fight if he is hun.
CRY.
"The allies today are practically
wholly dependent upon the United
States for food. Upon this nation
rests the responsibility of preserving
the world from Prussianism. This is
the task Of the people of this nation
TO produce and save food enough to
keep q steady stream of essential sup
plies moving towards the front SO

this war. II at any time we fail In

Potatoes fer Patriotism.

BY eating potatoes instead of wheat
tho people of the United States can
help win the war. We have not
enough wheat for the Allies and our.
selves. We have an abundance of DO.
tatoes. Wheat flour is a concentrated
food and therefore good for shipping;
potatoes are bulky and are conse.
qaently not suited for limited shipping
space. nor are the Allies SO short OF
potatoes as of wheat. Next to cereals.
potatoes have been in this country
tho mainstay Of stsrchy food, which
supplies energy.
The more potatoes we eat, the less
wheat we need. A medium sized po.

WANTS CONVCTS
 10 BUILD ROADS
State Highway Commissioner Owen Says He Could Place Every Man at Work at $2 Day-Expects
 Fight in Next Legislature.

Special to The Star.
 Little Rock, May 2.-"I could place at once every available state convict at $2 a day building roads," said w. B. Owens, State Highway Commis- sioner.
 It is probable that there will be a hard fight made in the next legislature to abandon the state convict farms and turn every man over to the con- struction of highways.
 Governor Brough favors it, the Highway Commission favors it and at least one member of the Penitentiary Commission favors it.
 There are now 75 negro convicts being employed on the Eureka Springs -Seligman road, and contrac- tors who have examined the work praise it highly.
 The men are worked under the di- rection of the Penitentiary Commis- sioners and the state is paid $s2 day for their labor. It is not in any sense contract job. One contractor who has been examining the work said that he would be glad to take 100 men to do similar work at S3 day.
 The labor of the convict is account ed as part of the states contribution te the highway fund and for every dollar expended in this way the gov ernment gives the state dollar.
 It is said that there are about 800 convicts that could be worked on the roads, and that there are road inn provement districts begging for them.
 These 800 men would bring the state $1600 day, and the govern ment would pay the state $1600.
 In this way, the men would not only maintain themselves, but would per form service that would benefit all the people in a permanent way.

AMERICAN LIEUTENANT WINS
 DISTINCTION IN WAR.

With the AmericanArmy in France, May B. Lieutenant James A. Meiss- ner, whose home is in Brooklyn and who brought down his first German airplane on the American front, north west of Foul, returned to his hangar to receive the congratulations of his comrades and to make his report with bashful grin on his face
 The lieutenant is young and slight and "tickled to death" that he has one enemy scalp hanging to his belt.
 What Meissner Did.
 Lieutenant Meissner is 21 years of age and a graduate of Cornell. He came to France few months ago and qualified as a pilot here.
 While he was protecting photo graphing plane, a German machine came in view The day was brilliant with sunshine. A French plane start ed for the German, but Meissner, who was flying high nearby in speedy Nieuport chaser, made a dive for the Germans tail. When within range, he opened fire with his machine gun and the German started spiral nose dive, but after few seconds strengthened out and started back for Germany.
 Messiner followed so closely when the German strengthened out that tEe latter's wings tore both of the under wings of Meissner's machine, but at the same time the young American poured a deadly stream of bullets into the enemy plane, which started smoking. Meissner kept up the fire until the German machine burst into flames. and then crashed to earth.
 The American pilot landed safely on his own side of the lines, but the German fell about mile inside tie German lines to the south of Thiau- court. The American infantrymen in the front lines watched the engage ment from start to finish, and cheered loudly,
