In Flanders fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below
We are the dead; short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved; and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies

SWAT THE FLY!
BY Dr.. w. a. Evans, in The State

Twenty years ago Vaughan, Reed
Shakespeare estimated that about
one-quartcr of the typhoid fever in
our army raised for the Spanish -Amc-
rican war was due to infection by
flies. That horrible typhoid rate
seems to us today to be the grcat
shame of the last quarter Of that CEN
tury.
Today our armies do not have ty-
phoid fever, in part because there are
fewer flies around our army camps.
but in greater part because the SOL
dicrs are vaccinated against typhoid
While army typhoid has come TO an
end the civilian population still pays
tribute to this unnecessary disease.
The few points needed to pI.c
that flies spread typhoid fever to
prove it so thoroughly that none rou Il
deny it-havc been cleared up. We
can say with certainty that if there
were no flies the amount of typhoid
would be greatly lcSscncd. The proof
is good that flies are responsible for
der two years of age.
much of the diarrhoca in children TN
der two years of age.
Levy of Richmond trained the
nurses of that city never to let the
flies get to soilcd diapers and at TIE
same time trained other people there
to prevent fly breeding. BY these
two measures he materially lowered
the baby death rate Of Richmond.
The New York Society for mDrov-
ing the Condition of the Poor by a
campaign of fly SUPPRESSION materially
reduced the baby death rate IN a sec
ton Of. that city. British Observers
have contributed still other proof that
flies are responsible for good part
of the diarrhoca death rate in YOUR
children.
If we look over the cities Of this
country we find that wherever flies
"bodnd there is much typhoid and in
fant diarrhoca. The case against the
fly is much stronger that It was 20
years aTo.

SOME ISSUES

There are several issues that we
would like to see discussed during this
campaign by the candidates for the
legislature and senate from Chcstr-
field County.
Chesterfield County needs hospi-
tai where her patients can receive
proper treatment and nursing. Hard
ly a week passes but several patients
must be taken, at great discomfort
and expense, to Wadcsboro, Florence,
Charlotte or Columbia. BY the as
sistance Of visiting specialists our local
physicians could take care of our
worst cases right at home. All cases
of contagious diseases could by this
means be removed from the home
during the course of the disease, thus
removing from the community, a
source of contagion.
Such a hospital would in time be-
come sclf-Sustaining, but if it is to
be public institution it would re-.
quirc public funds for it's establish
ment
There is already "A strong sent.
ment in favor of this movement. We
would like to see it cspouscd by one
or more of the candidates.
Then there is no more vital ques.
tion than that of good roads. In fac,
Good Roads and Better Schools"
ought to be the keynote of this COM
paign.
Anybody can promise reduction
in taxes but it takes man of cour-
age to face his audience and s2y, If
we are TO 90 forward in the hatter
of better health protection. good
roads and better schools there can be
no reduction of taxes
Let US 90 forward

TRIBUTE TO SENATOR TILLMAN

Referring to the re-cntcring into
the senatorial race by Hon. Ben Till
man, Mr. James 4. Holloman, staff
correspondent of the Atlanta Consti-
tuition, !Arotc to his paper, in March
letter paying high tribute TO South
Carolina great senator.
While the State of South Carolina
is mourning the loss Of this states
man of the old school, the tribute of
Mr.. liolloman, written several months
before the Senators death, will be
read with peculiar interest, we ap-
pead some extracts from Mr.. Hollo-
mans article:
Benz jamin r. Tillman is wonder
full man IN many respects; unique
in many and picturesque in not a few.
Another term in the SEN
ate may mean life sentence for him
in the senate chamber Of his country.
If it should SO mean--and here's hop
ing he lives to be a hundrcd-he will
die with his political boots on. Some
thing else. He will die building
up and maintaining the greatest navy
in Gods high seas. The navy is his
hobby.
AS chairman Of the naval af-
fairs committee in the senate his WORK
has been constructive. Many months
ago he saw the handwriting on the
wall. He began TO build the Amcri-
caD Doyv--to nranara ~ u.bnp ..nrc
parcdness' was unpopular in this
country. He had the cooperation of
the house committee. He had the co
operation Of the secretary Of the
navy. The result Is, while the war
department is dlsOrganiZcd in many
branches, due more 10 the inactivity
of the legislative committees than to
the mistakes Of the war department
officials, the navy is as nearly per
feet as the most cXacting could hope
and the work is not yet finished. That
is why Senator Tillman wants to stay
in the senate
Ben Tillman came to the UniLes
States senate in 1895. He has served
without interruption since. Twenty
four years when his term expires
That is "a proud record of itself. There
are only two men in the senate who
have longer continuous service.
They are Lodge, of Massachusetts,
and Gallingcr, Of New Hampshre
Senator Tillman has, therefore, serv-
ed through the democratic admins
tration of Grover Cleveland last
term, and the republican administra-
tions Of Mckinley, Roosevelt and
Taft and the democratic adminstra
ton of the first term of Woodrow
Wilson. He has been on the naval
committee from the beginning and
for several years was the ranking
democratic member, while the com
mittee was organized by the republi-
cans.
Say what you please about Ben
Tillman, he has his enemies and his
friends; his enemies are bitter, his
friends are loyal; but measured by
the standard of manhood he is. every
inch man."

German explanations and promises

trust: and it will be four hundred
years before the influence Of that
teaching dies out Of the world.
The common man does not know

London Papers Give Much Space to Story of Ameri- can Exploits at Fossoy

London, July 17.-Promnenee is again given to the fighting of the Americans at Fossoy and Jaulgonne on Monday by the newspapers of London Pointing to detailed reports and commenting edi- tcrially the Telegraph says:
 "The feature of the battle upon which the eyes of the world are fixed and those of the enemy with particular intentness is the conduct of the American troops. The magnificent counter attack in which the American army corps flung back the Germans upon the Marne after they had crossed was much more than the out standing event of the first days fighting. It was one of the historical incidents of the whole war in it's moral signif- canoe"
 Our French comrades should admit the chief honors in the initial days to the resistance of the American troops,' says the Graphic. The Americans showed the enemy the stern stuff of which they are made and also proved by their tactics that they have taken tho measure of Ludendorff 8 favorite method They demonstrated the wisdom of the policy of hitting at an offensive as soon as it shows itself.''

Oyster Bay, N.

 The message from Mrs. Roosevelt, who is doing Red Cross work in the French capital. contained nothing but the simple statement that she had been able to get mo confirmation of Quentin's death and Colonel Roosevelt feared there was little room to doubt the accuracy of the press dispatch which said the young flier had met a soldiers fate.
 Thousands of telegrams of condol- ence were received today at Sagamore Hill Colonel Roosevelt had nothing to add, however. to the isrief statement he issued earlier in the day, in which he expressed for himself and his wife sad pride that their son had been given an opportunity to show the stun or which he was made before he died.
 All Oyster Bay mourned with it's most distinguished citizen. In Town send park flies the service flag of the village, with blue star for each of it's sons in the service of the nation. Just at sundown a gold star was placed on the flag to mark the fis'st death among the villages young warriors.
