even when he had reached the stage
that he could scarcely walk or sec.
He was full of patriotism, When ths
Civil War broke out he volunteered
for service but on account Of his
rheumatic condition, his application
was rejected. His patriotic fervor
was not to be thus chilled. At his
own initiative he followed Co. c, 3rd

expenses for about one year,-unti:
he was accepted as a regular member
of the Regiment At the time OF th;

it is the imperative duty of every man

They tell us now that We will need
three million men and may be FIVE
million men to do the job over there,
and if so the quicker we get them
and send them over the sooner the
job will be done and we will be over
with it, and the easier the job will
be. or course we do not want to
send them until we are prepared to
equip them properly. and the govern
ment will not do that. We need trig-

that "we will win the war;" to make
the job end quick. In other words

GRADE CROSSINGS.

We understand that civil engineer
from the State highway department
has been in the county and made sur
verys of the road between Newberry
and Prosperity and on down to Little
Mountain with a view of relocating
the road and removing the grade
crossings. And the survey, as we
stated some time ago, if adopted for
the relocation of the highway will
remove all crossings of the railroad
on grade between Newberry and LII
tie Mountain except to enter Pros
perity and to get out, and that only
on the Southern, and there will o.
no more grade crossing Of either road
until you leave the town of Little
Mountain. That would help greatly
in the safety of the road and the
railroads as well.
We are told that a few people Oil
the road between Newberry and Pros
perity object to the change in the
road. We regret this because we can
not see how the change proposed will
not be great benefit to the conveT.

posed to pay them whai it is worth
for the rights of way arG if there be
anv damage to pay that also.
However, if the opposition is too
great to the relocation, we under
stand that Supervisor Sample has

the land to donate the right of way

Un Excuse for Being but Haze 1T Simple
SIMPLICITY SHOULD BE THE KEYNOTE OF ALL

Irene Fenwick Tells How
Frill-less Feminine Togs
May Com b in e Taste
With Economy

UCLoTHES make the woman--but
~ now II Is for the woman to make
the clothes" says Miss Irene Fenwick,
who is appearing In the all-star pro-
duction OF Lord and Lady Algy" at
economy and the woman must take this
seriously to heart, especially in the
matter OF clothes. Never before has
woman had the opportunity to dress so
well, yet so inexpensively, as Mt the
present moment. Simplicity should al
ways be the keynote of the well-dresscd
woman II has long been said that sim
plicity is the most expensive thing in
gowns. and yet this is not true.
Nothing Is more effective than n
dress made out of simple materials,
lawns, muslins and serges. Even the
despised glngham OF few years back
Is today one of the most modish Of ma
terials. If women will only do without
frills, without trimming and will use Il
little ingenuity and common sense they
can devise gowns for any occasion which
will not only cut their clothes bills in
half but will double their attractive
ness.
There Is nothing smarter than the
tailored gown. And the secret of its
success is its simplicity. Even before
the present war conditions have al
ways sought this in all my dresses
either those worn on the stage or off.

The season is approaching when the
spring and summer crop of insects will
begin to make its appearance. The
average citizen is familiar with a few
insects by sight and name, but there
are thousands of which he has never
heard. Within fifty miles of this city
an expert entomologist could find speci-
mems OF $4,000 different species and of
them more than 1000 would be moths
and butterflies. For the information and
entertainment of the curious, DIR. Frank
r. Lutz, assistant curator Of the de-
partment of invertebrate zoology of the
American Museum of Natural History,
has prepared handbook OF insects, In
which he has attempted to give the in
formation which he has learned is most
In demand by the general public. The
person who wishes to make a thorough
study Of the subject will find the book
disappointing, but 1t is just the kind OF
volume that the average man has long
