His flight was made as a boost for
the drive now under way in California
for S1700,000 to build paved high
way to the valley. This road when
completed will allow motor tourists TO
visit the wonderful Yosemite country
in the winter. when the scenic Won
oers of the valley are more beautiful
than at any other season.
In order TO insure greater speed
Lieut.. Krull fitted his Curtis III" scout
plane with streamlining between fly
ing wires. An additional gas tank was
built into the front cockpit, providing
a gasolene capacity OF forty-three gal
Ions, several times moro than what
was needed on the Yosemite trip. A
new Hispano-SuiZa motor and pro-
peller OF the type had been installed

epty-five miles an hour on May 81.
Prior to his fight aviation experts had
declared it absolutely unsafe to VEN
ture into the air currents of the tre-
mendous chasms OF the Yosemite VAL
ley.
If Krull, who is a First Lieutenant
attached to Mather Field. California,
had delayed his return trip to MERGED,
which he made the day following his
arrival in the valley. two hours he
would have been caught in the sever
est thunder and hail storm the valley
has known for twenty years, and his
plane would undoubtedly have been
wrecked. Four persons who had
climbed to Glacier Point in the morn

Far away in the background, under
the last rays of the sun, a football
match is going on! Reticent as the
artist has been in the expression OF
supreme tragedy-perhaps, indeed, on
account Of this very reticence-he at
tains to a height of pathos such as
has not been reached as yet in any
war picture. True, the subject is in
itself unutterably, almost intolerably,
pathetic: but the painter adds to its
poignancy by the subtle expression Of
his own intense sympathy. On one
point only do we join issue with Mr..
Sargent. It Is understood that he ac-
tually saw the football match going
on much as he has depicted 1t, and
that he was much moved by the dra-
matte contrast which 1t afforded to
the rest. If he had painted the scene
with a cruder. more terrible realism
Just as it presented itself to him
then this football match might prop
erly have had it's place in the scheme.

est class, we have assuredly very
noble and most pathetic picture-the
greatest, on the whole, that Mr.. Sar-
gent has shown In England"
Anent the betterment of decorative
design in America, William Laurel
Harris writes interestingly as follows:
II have read with interest the article
by Miss McCabe entitled Why Not
Tell 1t in Flowers? The idea ad-
vanced is an excellent one and Is pre-
scented with force and artistic insight.
THE great trouble in all such move
ments for better decorative design In
materials which contribute to the
beauty OF home making in America
lies in the fact that most people direct
their attention to influencing the man
ufacturer. In actual fact, the best
manufacturers are all very glad to
bring out new and handsome patterns,
but the great difficulty Of the situa-
ton lies in the buyers for the large
department stores and for the condf-
lions prevailing in the retail trade at
large throughout the United States.
"As a usual thing new design or
pattern in textiles is absolutely de-
pendent for its success on the opinion
of fifteen or twenty buyers for the
larger retailing establishments in our
more important cities. Any changes
in our general method Of decorative
design must first receive the approval
of the large distributors Of household
furnishings" -

Art Education in America.
In a broad way The Sun has
always promoted the cause of art
education as affecting the efficient
growth of the art departments of
Colleges and Public Schools, the
private Art Schools and the Stu
dio classes of prominent Artists.
1t will continue to do so. in the
sustained effort to secure individ-
ualism and breadth in distinctive
American art work. 1t may be
that the supremely representative
American artist is yet to become
an art student.

War Tank.

South Carolina is particularly for
tunate to get three tanks to be; taken
en- tour over the State that the peo-
pie may see the workings of the
"whippets" that broke the morale of
the German army. There has been so
much of romance and of mystery a
bout these great crawling fortresses
that the people have great curiosity
to see them.
These tanks will cover the entire
State, beginning Columbia, Charles
ton and Greenvlle. The sergeants in
charge are Blankenship of Richmond,
Va, at Greenville; Wells of Michi-
gan at Charleston and Young of New
York State and Lands of Cleveland,
Ohio, in Columbia. Lands is smooth
faced chap who has very pleasant
smile, but he was 20 months in for
eign activities, and saw a whole lot
of ups and downs in the tanks. His
tank served at different times with
six combat divisions and he was in
the Argonne Woods fighting for two
weeks.
These young men who have seen
so many wonderful things on battle
fields in France will accompany the
tanks and demonstrate them.

and Tilloloy Slides.

Thursday evening in the Opera
House, the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution gave very enjoyable
entertainment part of which was an
unexpected addition to the program
in the scenes from Camp Jackson by
the fourteen members of the Glee

Then came an hour Of entertain
ment by the Glee Club from Camp
Jackson, in music, choruses and tab

the display of the pictures, making

very clear the location and previous
and present condition of this village
in Picardy, and the part the D. A. R.
is doing in it's reconstruction, thus
giving an added pleasure to the
scenes as they appeared on the
screen.
Mr.. Gunter gave the explanation
of each picture as they appeared, and
each gave a glimpse of what the dev-
astation by the Hun has done for this
and many other towns and cities of
fair France.
About s65 was taken in at the
door.
The young soldiers were entertain

Resolutions on the Death of
1 Mrs. L. D. Holmes.

On the 9th of March 1919, our
entire community was saddened when
the death angel carried to the sweet
beyond, our dear sister and co-work-
er, Mrs. L. D. Holmes.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Holmes were
first married, Mrs. C. F. Pechman and
Mrs. T R. Denny of Johnston came to
Phitppi and organized Loyal Tenn
peraance Legion and we elected Mrs.
AnIa,,Belle Holmes as leader. She
was,itrue and loyal to her class until
her Health failed and she had to give
up her work she loved so well. Later
she was elected treasurer of the mis-
son society which she also served
faithfully.
AT her death she was correspond
ing secretary of e W. C. T. U. to
which she was tr I'd faithful as
well:as to the caus> mis- organization
represented and which she loved so
much.
AS an appreciation of her life and
work, we the members of the Philippi
Baptist church, missionary society
and w. C. T. U. offer the following
resolutions:
1st. That we bow in humble sub
mission to the divine Providence and
return thanks to God for the noble
life and example she left us of faith,
patience and loving service.
End. That we cherish her memory,
as one following closely in the foot
steps. of her Lord, doing all the good
she could in her own home and fam
lily circle as we'll as in all the commu-
nifty, How we all loved Mrs. Anna
Belle Holmes!
3td. That we extend to the be-
reaved husband, mother, brother and
sisters our sincere sympathy in their
overwhelming sorrow, with the pray
ers that our Heavenly Father who
took their loved one to Himself will
susts:n them, and the dear loved ones

w. C. T. u. Meeting at Baptist
Church.

Sunday evening the Baptist church
was crowded with friends of the tenn
perance cause to participate in the
meeting in the interest of prohibition
arranged by the Edgefeld w. c. T.
U. Our people of the county are get
ting closer and closer together as a
county unit, and Edgefeld rarely ar
ranges program of general ma
ture that the friends of Johnston,
Trenton, Harmony, Philippi and the
surrounding churches are not invited
to participate.
On this occasion, the Johnston or
chestra very generously came over
and aided most delightfully."- in the
music. Little Miss Inez Rhoden of
Johnston who had recently WOO a sill
yer medal in song, came over on in
vitation and gave this selection can
cry Words, o let them Never" with
piano accompaniment by Miss Antoi~
nette Denny. A quartette, brighter
Days are Coming" was sung by Ju-
liam Minis, Edwin Rives, Dixon Tim
norman and Robert QUITS.
Mr.. F. NJ. Boyd sang that splendid
selection, The Battle Song,' and the
chorus was sung by the 4S young la
dies and girls representing the rati-
i fed states, these singing the first two
verses behind the scenes and later
marching through the chruch singing
the last verse. Each one was dressed
in white with the names of the states
which had ratified the prohibition "a

three states which have not ratified,
Connecticut, Rhode Island and New

our merchants. This is mistake. We
have no such powers, and nothing
could have been further from our
minds. Certainly there never has been
any such instructions sent out from
the League, nor any mention of a de-
sire to have such an order passed. We
have often expressed Individually, a
desire that our streets might be bet
ter kept and each year we ask the CO.
operation of both merchants, and
council in our clean up week, but at
no time have we ventured beyond
the premises of those who have joined
the contests from year to year. We
regret to find this report very widely
credited. If our friends would stop to
think they would realize that we have
no such authority, and if every wo-
man in our community belonged to
the League it would be an easy mat
ter to correct this without using your
valuable space for this.
And now for an explanation. From
time to time we have requests like
this to come to US: "Can't you Civic
Leaguers prevail upon the council to
oil the street from the square to the
depot?" "Why don't you Civic
League members use your influence
and stop this mutilation of our shade
trees?" "Can't the Civic League have
some sort of chicken law passed."
"Why don't the Civic League have
the Court House cleaned up?"
These are samples of requests that
come to US. Now, while we would be
glad to assist along these lines, and
many others, we could hardly be
within our bounds and the council and
county officials might very properly
remind US to attend to our own busi-
ness.
There is much that we can do
there is great room for improvement,
and much to be done in laying the
foundations for Greater Edgefeld 1t
will take the cooperation of every
citizen regardless of color or sex, to
complete the job creditably, and the
Civic League is no Stacker.

MAJOR BUNCH KILLED.
Prominent Clarks Hill Is. CO.
Officer Loses Life Shortly
After Landing at
New York.

Information has been wired to his
father, DR.. G. A. Bunch, at Clarks
Hill, S. c., that his son, Major H. E.
Bunch, of the medical officers Re-
serve Corps, Rainbow Division, was
killed in an automobile accident yes
terday. The accident occurred Satur-
day. Death resulted Sunday morning
at 8 o'clock, the skull having been
fractured.
From the meagre details at hand, it
appears that Major Bunch, with 9TH
er officers, was making the trip from
the landing dock at Hoboken to Camp
Merritt, N. j., when the accident hap
pened.
Major Bunch was very we'll known
in Augusta especially among the med
ical fraternity. He graduated at the
Medical College here about five years
ago. He was about % years of age.
He is recalled as one Of the finest
of young men, who had well equip
ped himself in his profession and he
was a physician Of great promise.
Major Bunch went overseas before
the United States entered the world
war, being an early volunteer. He be-
gan service in the French army and
was transferred to the Rainbow Divi-
sion when that organization reached
France.
He has been in the midst Of the
most bitter of the fighting. At one
time he was gassed very severely. He
has had remarkable escape after re-
markable escape. In one engagement
portion of his clothing was shot
from his body. Shells have slain men
standing next to him on more occa-
sions than one.
