Memorial Service in Honor OF
Senator 3. E. Nicholson.

Following long standing and
beautiful custom, the senate last
Wednesday at noon held a memorial
service in honor of the late Senator
b. E. Nicholson. For nearly two
hours the members of the senate,
many of whom have been associated
with Mr.. Nicholson in the house and
senate for the past ten years, gave
utterance to heartfelt and very beau
tiful tributes.
Men who have witnessed memorial
services in the halls of Congress
have said the memorial service in
honor of Senator Nicholson would
have done credit to the national
house or senate. So earnestly, so feel
inely and so tenderly did his CO.
workers speak of the worth of Mr..
Nicholson as a public servant and as
a man, that tears moistened the eyes
of many who were present and who
loved the young statesman from
Edgefeld county. Would that l had
these tributes in manuscript form
and could publish them for the bene-
fit of Mr.. Nicholson's relatives and
friends.
Among those who participated in
this beautiful memorial service were
Senators Ridgell, Shelor, Walker,
Banks, Johnstone, Laney, Christen-
sen and Padgett, who represented
practically every part of the State.
At the conclusion of these ad-
dresses Ex-Gov. j. C. Sheppard, who
had qualified as the successor OF
Senator Nicholson, arose and in
very fitting manner expressed sincere
appreciation on the part of Edgefeld
county for the many beautiful trib-
utes to the lamented Senator Nichol-
son.
Senator Nicholson's desk in the
senate chamber has been draped in
mourning and it will until the close
of the session.

WAR BIG HELP
TO MTT GAME
BY JAMES w. OOFFROTH

have always believed, and still
believe, that boxing has an improving
future.
With the world war at an end,
boxing is going to make a greater
effort than ever before to establish it.
self as a nationwide sport which cam
be conducted legally and successfully.
II some good men-some big men
in the different States would inter-
est themselves, it is my belief that the
various State Legislatures would pass
bills legalizing the game. There are
boxing bills under consideration in q
number OF States now. and from all
reports they are going to meet with
but little opposition.
The great trouble with boxing has
been that the chaps who go to the
frcnt for the game as a rule lack
what we might call Glass" or public
confidence and esteem. Mind you.
now, do not take this as meaning that
1 possess this qualification, for I am
merely expressing it sort of "low
down"
The whole trouble, nearly, is the
promoter. The boxer, in the nature
of things as rule, is young, and
consequently is often led into doing
things through promise of reward
that he is always sorry for later on.
The promoter can correct this. /
once told good friend of mine that
when l entered the boxing business
in 1901 / thought that at the end Of
the year l would be a Rockefeller.
But when, at the end Of six months,
those dreams went aglimmering. I
nearly turned to the other side to put
one over" But my mentor, "Big
Jim" Kennedy, of New York, steered
me straight with some sound and
fatherly advice.
To sum up-if the promoter will
bring himself to the solemn realiza-
ton that conducting boxing ON the
level IN the only policy, he will make
lots and lots Of money, though he may
have temporary hard luck. This may
seem bit involved, yet it is the way
for the promoter to follow and It
impresses me as I am writing.
Boxing was killed in Chicago In
December, 19OO-and in Illinois an
well-by the notorious bout between
McG0vern and Cans. / don't know
who promoted it-perhaps some pres
emit or past friend of mine, but if he
had used judgment he could have
prevented that particular blow to the
game. which has had a lasting effect
in Illinois, and from which that great
State Is only now recovering.

tain their uniforms indefinitely. In
view of the fact that this bill is
clearly the result Of public opinion
and will probably be enacted into law,
it is thought best to consider 1t as
already in force insofar as it allows
officers and enlisted men to retain and
wear their uniforms for the time
being.
5. The Red CheyrOns.-The red
chevron was adopted in order to dis
tinguish discharged enlisted men
from those still in the service. The
fact that it is. perhaps, being used in
some cases by enlisted men still in
the service as a means of deceiving
the military authorities is not sufi-
cient cause to warrant its removal.
Those cases are subject to disciplinary
action, and military commanders
have the power to make this particu-
lar breach of regulations highly un-
profitable fer the offenders. Dis
charged men seem to be willing and
ready to wear the chevron, even when
necessary to purchase 1t from civilian
firms. 1t is not considered advisa BILE
to attempt to obtain legislation rem
dering discharged men in uniform
subject to military discipline. The
red chevr0n, while admittedly not a
universal panacea, is the only prac-
teal plan so far suggested to main
tain the distinctive character of the
uniform when worn by soldiers as
distinguished from ex-soldiers.
s. Protection of the Uniform
The impersonation Of officers and the
wearing of uniforms by those not en-
titled to do SO is a question in most
cases for the civilian authorities to
handle. Those cases should be pros
ecuted by the civil authorities under
the provisions of Sec. 1875, Act of
Congress. June 3, 1916 (Bull. Is,
w. D., 1870. This act provides for
its violation penalty upon conviction
of not to exceed $500 fine or six
months Imprisonment or both.
z. Military CourteSy.-Command-
ing officers should take proper dis
ciplinary action to insure that the
rules of military courtesy are care
fully observed by all officers and men
alike connected with the service This
can not be forced upon discharged
officers and men who do not wish to
be governed by those -1les.
