HEROIC EFFORTS TO SAVE
MAN FROM 10y GRAVE

BIairs, Jan. 6.-On Wednesday, Jam
uary 3, Hugh Henderson, Ben Thomp-
son, Allen Thompson, Ben's son, and
Rowland Thompson, Ben s nephew, un.
dcrtook to cross from Newberry side Of
Broad rive to Fairfield side at Blairs.
They had to break their way through
the ice. When they were IS to 100
yards from the shore the whole top OF
the frozen river gave way and came
down on them, breaking the bateau into
several pieces and throwing the FOUR
men into the icy water.
Rowland Thompson saoi- and a cake
of ice several yards wide and long
passed over him and he was seen no
more.
Hugh Henderson managed to make
his way to the Newberry side, from
which they started, by crawling on the
ice. Ben, being an old man, went
throug gh and could not pull himself out,
and Allan, his son, stayed with him and
tried to lift him upon the ice, but
he had been caught and Allan couldn't
move him. Allan, then half frozen,
crawled out and joined the rest Of the
rescue party who were vainly trying to
get the fat and another bateau out OF
their frozen beds.
They had to abandon that idea, how
ever. and resort to carrying plank from
a pile of lumber at the ferry and build
ing a road on the ice to the half frozen
man, which they succeeded in doing,
and pulled him out. He was IN terrible
condition, but we hope that he may re-
cover. The men who deserve much
credit for trying so hard to rescue Ben
were James Rutherford, one of our most
prominent and we'll thought of colored
citizens: his half-brother, Raymond
Whitney, and Nathan Aston, all col
ored. and H. n. Henderson, white. These
men risked their own lives by crawling
ont on the treacherous ice where Row
1ond had irst heen drowned to save
Ben, and succeeded.

DEATH OF MR.. B. E. JULIEN.

Mr. Baxter Elliott Julien, at the age
of 80 years, died at his home in Helena
Thursday night at $50 O'Clock after an
illness OF pneumonia lasting only from (
the Saturday before. He was buried at
Rosemont cr!@cte"v, the funeral service
being conducted at the residence by his
pastor, 1he Rev. Edw. Fulenwider, Sat-
urday moruirg at 10 o'clock. The fol-
lowing were the pallbearers: Messrs.
Arthur Kibler, j. T. Dennis, D. c. Spear
man, A. S. Rae, Welch Wilbur and G. J.
Zobel. Among the beautiful floral ,trib
utes was large cross of white carna-
tions and Roman hyacinths from the
Sunday school, the following words be-
ing inscribed on the card: "B. E. Julien,
ever true; faithful to the Masters
cause. He shall remember thee. Helena
Sunday School,
The passing of Mr.. Julien is sadly felt
in Helena, where for almost his entire
life he had lived, devoting himself to
his home and to the best interests of the
community. He was the moving spirit
of the little Sunday school, of which he
had been member from childhood, and
only sickness prevented his attendance.
A strong evidence Of his faith in Christ
was his regular daily reading of the
Bible, which he loved. He was devot-
ed and consistent member Of the Lu-
theran Church of the Redeemer in New
berry.
The colored people of Helena looked
upon him as true and wise friend to
whom they could appeal for advice and
counsel, and it was touching to see them
come singly and in groups to look their
last look upon him and to hear their
expression of regret and sorrow.
Only seven years of his life were
spent away from the village, when In.
his young days he lived in Pendleton.
He was prominent citizen of Helena,
being postmaster, merchant and planter,
leading an active and busy life. For
some years he was member of the mer-
camille firm of Bishop e. Julien, the
senior member of the firm being the late
c. W. Bishop.
Mr.. Julien was twice married. His
first wife was Miss Beulah Greneker,
daughter of the late Mr.. Richard Fl.
Greneker. His second wife was Miss
Dora Abenathy of Charlotte. By his
former marriage he is survived by two
sons, Sergeant Carl T. Julien, who has
Just entered the third officers training
camp at Fort Oglethorpe, being sent
there from the Coast Artillery at Fort
Moultrie; and Richard G. Julien. By
the latte. marriage he is survived by his
/ widow and one little son, Lloyd Allyn.
The bereaved relatives have the SYM
pathy of the community in their attic
tion.

KnowIedoe Unto Himself

A group of business men met on a street corner in certain city and were discussing the progress that has been made by the allied forces on the western front. During the conversa- tion a fellow citizen. who is fond of expressing his opinion, but whose field of information is so limited that he doesn't appreciate how small 1t is, Joined the crowd and listened to the various expressions.
 Unable to hold his silence, he de- clared:
 "There aIn't no doubt but that our boys has thrown new life into the alleys, but in my opinion the Huns cant fight like the Germans did"
 And then before anyone could get in word he added:
 And then we've done lots better work since our merchant marines has got into the front line action"

IMMENSE WCEK
 AHEAD FOR WONAEN \

18R. Henry P. Dawson, chairman of Ghe War Council of the Red Cross, has said that If the government should offer him a check for $5OO.O00 ,OO0.0e or A check for only $1OO, O,00O, ,OOO. % and the work of the women of the country, he would not even look at the larger check! He knew what he was saying, too, as the magnificent re- sponse of the women of America has shown. Never before did woman shine as now; never before did she SO show that but for her aid the worst would have occurred And the end 1s Rot yet.
 The calls are endless. Refugees have no underclOthes, no stockings, little to protect themselves against the coming winter winds. The women of America are g"ing to furnish these clothes, these stockings, are going to see to it that no French, no Belgian, no Italian child, or mother, shivers into bitter grave before next spring,
 The Surgeon General of the Unit ed States is asking for thousands of sweaters, for hundreds of thousands of socks, and for hundreds of thous= Ands of articles of all kinds! Eng ush calls ring oyer the water--and the American women remember what the English fleet did for us-they do not forget! French women, whose souls gre bowed with grief, are listening for those sweetest of all sounds, the click of needles that mean warmth, and the shipping of scissors that mean clothes for the children.
 No babies in the history of the world have been better guarded than the American. Now all the skill, all the tenderness, all the love of Amer ican mothers finds limitless OppeF- tunities to help babies who but fOF them would have nothing at alll

MEAT PRODUCERS
 DID FULL DUTY
Increase in American Hogs VII Help to Meet World Fat
 Shortage. ;'
FARMERS SAVE SITUATION
Government Justified tn Stimulation of Pork Production-SeVenfO Increase Over Pre-
 War Exports.

Through increased production and conservation we will be able this year to export seven times our pre-wAI average exports of pork products With the heavy demands added in car Ing fOr the millions who have been freed from German oppression, the Department of Agriculture and the Food Administration are justified to- day in our every action of Stimula tiOn of hog production. In the coming yea ? the greatest world shortage will be in fats, and pork will help to save this situation. The efficacy of the policy of stimulated production has built up in this country supplies which will en- able us to supply very large part of the fat deficiency of the world. In beef there must he shortage in Flu rope, due largely to limited refrigera- tor ship capacity. All freezer ships available, however, will be filed by America. Argentine and Australia.
 The contribution made by the pro ducerS of this country to the war pro- gram as applying particularly to ani- mal food products Is illustrated hy the following:
 Reports compiled by the U. S. De partment of Agriculture indicate an increase in cattle of 10,23S 0'D head and l2.44l .O0O hogs. These figures were compiled to January l last.
 In this period there was a decrease in sheep of S19,OO0 head. The indica- tiOns are that this decrease will show an increase, according to recent re- ports.
 Since January unofficial infOrma- tiOn indicates an increase in hogs of not less than $ per cent. and not more than l5 per cent. as compared with one year ago. with an increase iN the average weight.
 Following the request of the U. & Food AdminiSt E4ttion for an increase in hog prOductfOn for marketing in the fall of 1918 and the spring Of 1919 the increase may yield not less than l,6Ol,- 00NO0O pounds more of pork prOducta than were available last year. With- out this increase the shipping program arranged by Mir. Hoover regarding aR= imal food products would have been impossible,
 The dressed hog products during the three mouths ending September 3A 1917, amounted to 9O3, l72,OO0 pOUndA. while for the corresponding mouths of 1918 the dressed hog products tOtaIed l,277, ,5S9OOO, an increase of over 374,= 100000 pounds for the quarter.
 During the same period for I917 the records of inspected slaughter Of 6 Y pounds as against ,454, 4,OOO,OOO pounds for the three month period ending September l, this year.

SAVAGE METHOD OF WARFARE
Germany Broke international Agree. ment When She Began 4IOO uoe
 of Poison Gas.

Poisonous gases are produced by some explosives which have been com monly used in warfare. They are the products of the explosion. The direct use of poison gases, however, was specifically inhibited by The Hague convention. They were used deliber- ately for the first time on April p, 1915, on part of the Ypres salient. A poison gas cloud (chlorine) was there launched by the Germans against the French and British, where they joined, the TurcOs and Canadians receiving the brunt.
 Frustrated in the quick accomplish ment of their aims, the Germans again threw all honor aside, as they had done in Belgium, and used poison gases. In this way they proposed to end the war quickly. The immediately bitter pur- pose was to kill and affect the morale Of the colonIals. Written and spoken narratives of the effect of that great greenish-yellow cloud on the minds of those soldiers, as 1t rose right out of the ground, rolled toward and envel- oped them, the first whiffs choking, then producing spasms of agony, are thrillingly terrible. Many died hor- rIble death; many who raced away ahead of the weird waves got sufficient of the gas to affect their health seri- Ously.
 The morale was not broken, how ever, and the war was not soon over. If the Germans had done the vicious thing more thoroughly the war might have been over long ago.-American Review of Reviews.
