A France-Land Lullaby.

Sleep, thou little child of sorrows,
Wars harsh din fright not thine ear;
Sleep, and dream of happier morrows,
Rest thine heart and feel no fear.
Bends thy mothers angel 'bove thee,
Leans thy fathers spirit near;
France, thy Mother-Land, will love
thee,
She'll defend thee, baby dear.
Sorrows child, did foemen wTest thee
From the breast, serene and sweet,
Where q mothers love would nest
thee;
O'er a heart which for thee beat?
Sleep, thy Mother France will hold
thee;
Sleep, for other loving arms
Shall with tenderness enfold thee;
Shield thee safe from wars alarms.
Now the sun sinks to its setting;
Shadows slant across the sky.
Dream, sweet child, in sleep forget
ting
Wars grim specter. Lullaby
Rises DER thy birth-land stricken
Hopes clear, shining star of light.
Sleep, no shadows round thee
thicken;
Wake to day-dawn, blest and bright.

While nearly every hone in Edge
field has been visited By influenza,
we should all devoutiy give thanks
that there were but few cases Of Sc
rious illness. Edgefela has been pc
culiarly blessed during the influenza
scourge.
There are more eettoa seed on the
farms of Edgefeld county now than
there has been for twenty years dur
ing November. The price-fxing has
almost stopped the sale. However, be-
fore planting time most of them Will
find their way to market.
Mrs. Manly Timmons, Manly Vim
mons, Jr., and little Jeanette Tim
mons have gone to Winterseat to
spend several weeks. 1t is probable
that DR.. Manly Timmons will return
with them and locate permanently in
Edgefeld.
Send The Advertiser the letters
you receive from our soldier boys.
The relatives and friends of the boys
in all parts of the county enjoy read
ing them. The Advertiser eheerfully
gives space to them-will devote a
page every week if necessary.
Probably the most inspiring eeea-
sion ever held in Edgefeld will be the
raising of the County Service Flag
on the public square the afternoon Of
November Is. The flag will contain a
star for every Edgefeld county boy
in the naval and military service.
In the list of Liberty Bond sub
scribers through the Farmers bank,
as published in The Advertiser, the
following names were inadvertently
omitted: Mr.. M. B. Byrd, $500; Mi.
L. H. Hamilton, $500, and Mr.. F. p.
Walker, 5000, A. Daitch s2oe, and
C. NJ. Williams, 500.
Mrs. D. T. Mathis, Jr., came home
from her school at Pacolet and spent
several days with her father and
sisters at Ropers. Miss Emmie Lam
ham went up to Pacolet to nurse Mrs.
Mathis who had case of influenza.
She has sufficiently improved to re-
turn to her school this week.
The autumn vacation, due to the
closing of the school to head-off the
influenza, has enabled many children
to aid in harvesting the cotton crop.
The Advertiser children have picked
about a bale and put their money
every weekend in thrift and wal
savings stamps. The children are ap-
prehensive lest there be no more
thrift stamps after the war.
Carroll Rainsford, the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas H. Rainsford, who
has been attending the Citadel has
volunteered for military service and
will the latter part of November be
sent by the local board to the infan-
try officers training school at Camp
Fremont, California. Carroll is only
18 years of age, and his acceptance
for the officers training school by
the Provost Marshal General is de-
cided compliment to him. He has
made an excellent record at the
Citadel.

ROADS TO CEMETERY
SHOULD BE GRADED

MR.. EDITOR:-The usual complaint,
ON account Of bad-and places nearly
impassible-roads, the people could not
get out to Riverside Cemetery for Dec.
orationDay exercises, was as loud and
longer as ever this year.
Why not devote q little space to try
to interest. the City Commissioners in
making q road to this Cemetery that
could be used even tho there had been
q heavy rain or bad storm the night
before?
This continual cry that the people can
not get out to that Cemetery on &C.
count of the condition Of the road, is a
standing disgrace to the city, and
should have been remedied years ago.
All thoroughfares from the depot, or
any of the churches in the city leading
to this cemetery, converge or Franklin
street, near the college building, where
there has been between five and fifty
dollars spent in grading the street.
But in plating the city that street
started from an inaccessible point on
Jefferson avenue, instead of from
Washington avenue, the logical start
ing point: and so for over a quarter
of q century the "City Dads" have let
the matter of a road to this Cemetery
lie dormant.
Petitions, signed by a majority of the
city residents owning lots OF Franklin
street have been filed with the Com.
%sioners, praying to have the street ex
tended west. to Washington avenue,
and said petitions tabled" Nothing
doing. Why?
At the same time our Commissioners
are securing title to lots for extension
Of Franklin street, it would be right,
and proper, for them to extend Pleasant
Drive from it's eastern terminus to the
west line Of Washington avenue, and
thus give direct road from the depot
to this Cemetery.
If pleasant Drive and Franklin street
were extended as suggested, it would
make a job of road grading sufficient to
attract bidders.
Franklin street requires comparative
little grading.
Why a not we have these streets

RULES FOR DRAFT, JUNE S.

The Secretary of War authorizes the
following:
with the signing by President Will
son of the bill ard proclamation desig-
Wednesday, June 5. as the day
which all men who have reached
the age of 81 since last June s, shall
register for Military service. Provost
Marshal General Crowder's Office
began Immediately preparations of
the enrolment of the men. Instead of
using the election machinery as was
done last year. General Crowder will
call upon the local boards. It is be-
llieved that their experience during the
year has peculiarly fitted them to ham
die the new registration economically
and efficiently.
General Crowder has estimated that
probably three quarters of a million
army by the new registration. His es.
innate is based on the fact that about
10. 600. 900 registered last year. This
included all between the ages of 81 and
81 and statistics collected by General
Crowder's Office shows that a little
more that 10 per cent of these men
were 81 years old. On that basis it is
estimated officially that the total regis
~tration will exceed 1000. 900 of which
$50, 900 will be available for military
service. This makes proper allowan-
ces for physical detectives, exemptions
