the "verdure" was soon rubbed off,
and we had company that would
have made Napoleon's best ashamed OF
themselves. There Is a rumor circu-
lating that the S. A. II. G. scared the
Huns into signing the armistice. This
we will not deny.
But now, Private Bill" getting
down to serious business, we find it
an indisputable fact that this organiza-
ton instilled a lot Of good principles
into its members. The S. A. II. G. made
real American" out Of many a boy.
Naturally, the question arises, What is
a real American? He is one who is
loyal to his family, to his friend, and
TO his country. He is a reformer, not
revolutionist. He hates militarism.
but is ready to serve when his country
calls. He holds to the ideals of Wash
ington, Jefferson and Wilson. lie
keeps informed on public questions.
His heart beats little faster when he
secs the stars and stripes. He re-
spccts women. He speaks slowly, and
means moro than he says. He hates
class distinction. He is a good loser.
He does not want the United states
to rule The world, but be the biz
brother. lie ohcys and respects his
superior.
We believe that each OF these poin
was brought out by the influence Of
the s. \. r. G. indeed, this organization
was ono Of The instruments used by
Uncle sam TO mako the world safe for
democracy. Concerning It's life ono
might ask this question, "Did the S. \.
Il. G. so through the seven stages Of
life, and then. die at Il ripe old age?"
We say, "No." for it lived through
three stages only, for while in IFS
young manhood the organization died.
None Of the boys ever saw active ser
vice, but the S. \. II. G. left behind a
democratic influence that will not die
in single generation.
Our chief aim in life is to live so
that we may die in happiness Al
though benefited, we believe cvcry sol
der was happy TO receive his dis
charge. and, since "thc whole is equal
TO the sum Of its parts" we can truly
say that the $. a. ~. c. died happily
on December the twelfth, nineteen
hundred and eighteen.
Never again, let us hope, will il be
necessary for the field, where athletic
hOnOrS are won--and sometimes lost
to be turned into drill field whore
We arc taught how to slay our fellow
man. With the birth Of the new year,
it has been resolved to build dormi-
tories, not barracks; educate men, not
soldiers; and, instead OF fostering the
cause OF war, cndcavor to establish the
brotherhood Of man.

with dead Germans. When they got
to headquarters there was only the
guide, Lieut.. Neuffer and Sergeant
Watts, the other men having sought
shelter on the way up. Sergt. Watts
was in hard luck, however, for he
had lost one box of ammunition and
spade. The shelling was so heavy
that he was warned not to go back
for his spade, but in a few minutes
he slipped out, took his chances, and
came back shortly with his spade, his
box of ammunition and a good pair
of socks he got from a dead German,
and which he exhibited with pride.
Lieut.. Neuffer saw many prisoners
taken and every kind of man seemed
to be in the lot. One young fellow
about fourteen. years old, was in a
broad grin and walked along COM
posedly, in pathetic contrast to his
companion, an older man, who was
in a panic of fear, both trembling
hands uplifted crying, "Kamerad"
to any one who would listen. The
Germans were mostly dirty and un-
kempt looking, but were fairly we'll
dressed.

course, it is a part of the war. Lieut..
Neuffer went for a short leave and
saw all the sights to be seenin the
gay city. He found the hotels about
like the American, with the rates and
eood about the same. The Parisians
were in the midst Of the long range
bombardment and the morning the
young lieutenant visited Notre Dame
the handsome stained glass windows
were being taken out and stored in
a place of safety. Lieut.. Neuffer
says the women ofsParis are not
pretty, but are stylish and "sporty
looking" and are vivacious.
This trip was made in company
with "Jim," a Greenville boy, who
has the right idea about visiting a
big city. Jim had looked ahead and
had home folks deposit two hundred
dollars to his credit in French
Bank. He visited the bank and ask
ed for his money, when the teller
asked "You surely do not want it
all?" To which Jim replied, GAIL!
He'll! I'm going to be here all day"
All of which shows that Jim is genu

CORP. KENNEDY ARRIVES.

The Sixty-frst coast artillery con-
tanning among other troops, some
South Carolina, including the Green
wood Company formerly commanded
by Capt. Henry c. Tillman, landed in
New York on yesterday. They came
over on the Dante Alleghieri.
Among those who landed on yes
terday was Corporal W. P. Kennedy.
The friends of Mrs. Kennedy and of
young Pat who "arrived" while his
father was in France will be glad to
hear of the safe landing of the vessel.

and fighters. There is saying that
they fight for souvenirs while the
Scotch fight for the pure love Of a
scrap. This was demonstrated one
night when an Indian and a "wild
cat" man from North Carolina un-
dertook to "beat up" Tonmie. A
Scotchman interposed, saying the
Americans were company" and he
would attend to Tommie. After he
had attended to Tommie, the Scotch
man, the Indian and the "wild cat"
man locked arms and walked peace
fully away together.
The Australian greets the dough-
boy with "Hello, Yank, come in and
have a drink" and anything he has
in his dugout is yours for the asking.
The young soldier has been asked
many questions and he says there is
one he can answer trxthfully and
positively-he does not know when
the Thirtieth will be home.
One thing noticeable since coming
home, is that while not a prodigal
son, where ever he goes his plate is
piled sky-high as though he were
about year behind on good "eats."

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason il PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy il
recommended by those who have been
benefited. to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, q
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits. as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
30 many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; c~orrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
