STANLISLAU, Ukraine, May 29.- Diseases imported from Russia by the way of Kiev and Odessa are spread ing to such an arlming extent that the government has closed the iron tiers and closely examined civil refugees and other former prisoners of war returning to their homes An investigation by the lnterna' tional Red Cross Mission shows that possibly twenty-five per cent of the population of Lemberg and other centers of Old Galicia are infected by the various forms of typhus, dys- entary, tuberculosis or other 1nfec- tious or mental and nervous dis, eases.

THE AMERICAN DOUGHBOY.

Rev. Peter MacQueen, in Leslie's.
Alone undiminished, a star of first
water burning ever brighter in the
Milky Way of time, goes the Ameri-
can doughboy. To him, of all men,
I take off my hat. Generations of
tourists will flourish and decay; fond
American mammas will come here,
looking for count or duke, chattering
snipers of globe-trotters from all over
the world shall assemble here-but
none of them in the long, long cen.
turies shall ever equal the simplicity
and valor of thed oughboy Of 1918
1919, as he goes trudging down the
corridors of time. He may hit the
beer-or a pretty girl-God bless US!
but he has the tang of the free,
fresh forest and the prairie alnd; and
he has the broad shoulders and the
wide vision Of yonder green land
across the ocean waves, where the
prejudices and feuds of Europe have
become sunlMrnt memories in the
afternoon of the past. These are in
comparable men who helped to win
the war. Will our statement help to
lose it?

road from Columbia to Batesburg'
would add to the taxable values Of
Lexington many times over the cost
of such an undertaking When Rich
land county has completed her con-
templated road Improvement" said
he. IT believe that many men 'of
means will seek homes in the country.
Lexington has some of. the ost de-
sirable property for home sites to be
found anywhere. With a good paved
road I think that at least a part of this
exodus country-ward could be divert
ed towards Lexington. Every home
built will not only add something to
the taxable value on its own account
but will add an Increased value to all
nearby land.
- '!'Then, too, with a first-class road
many city people will search the
country for produce to supply their
table, saving much time to the farmer
now employed in marketing his sur
plus food supply.
"At first blush it might seem like
extravaganza to talk of paving such a
stretch of road, but people should
realize that every dollar properly
spent for the right kind of road is not
an expense but an investment-one
that will bring a handsome return"
All of which is gospel truth and has
already been set out in these columns
before
Since the memory Of man runneth
not to the contrary Lexington county
has practically fed Columbia-the
worth while farming lands of Rich
land being devoted entirely to cotton.
With the coming of the boil weevil
it Will be more than ever necessary
for Lexington to hold this trade. Can
we compete against Richland with her
paved roads when her farmers turn
from cotton to food crops?
It is worth thinking about.

CHEAP LAND.

In this day of 35 and Accent cot
ton it is no uncommon thing to read
in the papers of land in some parts Of
South Carolina selling from two. to
three hundred dollars and even more
per acre. We believe we have read of
one farm which brought as much as
$500 an acre. Meanwhile in Lexing-
ton there is good land and plenty Of
it being offered at and below $50 the
acre, 49,. An ,<.:i:,,:.
From reports ali over the State we
are forced to the conclusion that by
far the cheapest land in South Caro-
lima today is to be had in Lexington
county Ii there are in other coun-
ties ambitious young white men unable
to pay the high prices asked for land
in their home counties, we invite them
to come to Lexington, where they will
find land in small tracts at figures
easily within their reach. We are not
talking either of abandoned or waste
land, but land already partly develop
ed and as capable of being brought to
high production standards as many
for which three and four times the
prices asked here are being paid:
A prominent real estate broker
making a speciality of farm property
and operating in. several. counties is
authority for the statement that land
prices now prevailing in Lexington are
about the lowest he knows of, consid-
ering quality of the land: -.
Generally speaking Lexington is a
county of small independent home
owning farmers rather than of large
plantations occupied by tenants. For
our part we hope it will always re-
main so. It is with view of attract
ing still more of this most desirable
class Of citizens that these lines are
written. Some kind of an organiza-
tlon having LOT lts purpose the orlng-
ing home Of these facts to folks in
other sections where land values have
been boosted beyond the reach Of the
average man would serve a two-fold
purpose, by further increasing "a de-
sirable element of our connty's popu-
lation and at the same time putting
some worthy men in the way of be-
coming landowners. :. f.,
The most desirable cheap land in
South Carolina by far today is right
here in Lexington county. Land will
not be cheaper here or elsewhere. It
hasn't declined in, value since we can
remember, and it isn't likely to do so
now permanently

''IEST WE FORGET"

How hard it is to realize that only
one year ago yesterday the amistice
which ended the great war was signed.
With what relief we in America read
of the close of the great conflict
which for a time threatened the COM
plete overthrow of civilization. How
our hearts thrilled with pride in the
achievements of the wonderful army
of American boys who had so great
a part in the final outcome. With
what grateful hearts we realized that
our loved ones would soon be return
ed to US; that they would no longer be
exposed to the dangers of battle. How
eagerly we longed to once more en-
brace them, to have them again at
their own fireside. Truly the 11th day
of November, 1918, was a time of
great rejoicing. 1t should be a day
forever treasured in our annals. To
many, however, the glad news, how
ever, brought no sense of personal re-
lief-because perhaps an only son, or
a brother, or husband or sweetheart
lay sleeping that long sleep on the
bloody fields of France. For them
the muffled drums sad roll had beat
the soldiers last tattoo" 1t is prin-
cipally to commemorate the brave
deeds and the noble deeds of these
sons of Carolina that we are proposing
to erect a memorial buildingn. LEST
we forget" let's contribute now. Ne
body is asked to give till it hurts" a
small contribution from everybody
will be ample to do full JUSTICE to the
soldier dead.
Do your part.

SCARCITY OF PAPER.

Newsprint paper, the kind used by
all newspapers, is becoming very
scarce, SO much Sc that the situation
is becoming alarming; particularly to
the weekly press. Paper for the use
OF the large dailies is made in rolls
while that used by the weekly press
is made in single sheets, flat The
consumption by the dailies has been
so great that many mills are said to
have abandoned making flat paper at
all, thereby creating serious short
age. Along with the shortage the
price has continued to soar until it is
low almost three ii mes what it was
before the world war, with prospects
for still further increases: Unless
something is done to either curtail
consumption or increase production
the weekly newspapers will soon face
a serious shortage. So far this news
paper has been able to secure sufficient
for its needs, but delayed shipments
have caused considerable annoyance
and anxiety. We have contracted for
q supply ample tos take care of our
needs, but getting delivery after con-
tract has been the hard part.
The American Newspaper Publish
ers Association, an organization COM
posed of daily papers, is to meet sooa
to discuss the matter and try to
remedy it. We hope that in order to
aid their brethren of the weekly press,
they will decide to at least temporarily
reduce the size of the Sunday apers
by cutting out the comic and sydicate
supplements, with which their readers
can very well dispense. If all the
daily papers in the country will do
this it will reduce consumption very
materially.

soldier {
Do your part

The approach to the river bridge
from both sides is in bad shape but
on the Lexington side it is in a de-
plorable condition, the succession of
depressions and rises resembling waves
on the Atlantic ocean. The damage
to machines travelling the short
stretch from the bridge to the top of
the hill must be enormous and would
certainly within a short time pay for
any kind of paving. The road in
question, we understand, is part OF
the town of Brookland and conse-
quently under the jurisdiction of the
town authorities. They ought to do
something for it, or if they can't some
body ought to take up a collection to
at least repair it.
