Use Preventives

From the Thrift Magazine.
 Loss of time, money, and health often can be prevented by the use of some simple, inexpensive preventive meas ure. At all times, especially during these days e influenza you should never allow yourself to remain in a rundown physical condition. If att tackled by disease. while your resist tance is low, you may pay for it with a long illness or possibly with life it. self.
 Most people think a doctors only use is, to be sent for in case of emergency like a fireman, and be brought run ming with his pillbox in hand just in the nick of time to cheat the under taker. Many a first-class funeral could have been prevented by pill taken at the right time. Go to doctor once in while. Let him thump your chest bone, gaze on the scenic mysteries of your tongue count your pulse and tele- phone your lungs. Neglect of health is a common form of thriftlessness

GREENVILLE

Greenville, March 1o-(speciaL) "A large number of Greenville friends of the late distinguished citizens, public servants and statesman, Col. Hilary A. Herbert, attended his funeral at Montgomery, which was held at St. Johns Episcopal church.
 A number of relatives from Greenville went to Montgomery Saturday and were at the funeral of their noted kinsman.
 Just at the opening of the war between the states Greenville furnished a num- Der of volunteers, and it was Colonel Her bert who organized a company of volun- teers and left Greenville for the Confer crate army. The day of the departure was one of the most historical in the annals of Greenville's Confederate history, and thousands of people gathered at the little Louisville and Nashville station to bid farewell to her stalwart young sons. On this occasion a song was sung by a num- Der of Greenville school children that was written by Mrs. Ina Marie Porter Ockenden and sung to the tune of Dixie It was this song that was adopted py the United Daughters of the Confederacy as their official song. On the spot where this song was rendered the members or the Father Ryan chapter of United Daughters of the Confederacy of Green- vile have erected an historical mark in the form of a slab and drinking fountain to the authoresS.
 It is quite singular that the body Of the authoress of the poem was buried just two weeks prior to that of Colonel Her bert.
 On March 30 the Greenville Baptist Sun day school will hold a special rally serv- ice.
 Committees have been appointed to make the meeting one of the most sue cessful ever had for it is one of the biggest undertakings of the Sunday school special programme will be given and each of the departments Will take a special part in the service. The exercises will be held in the auditorium, where there will be number of visiting Sunday school workers to discuss the work of missions, for which the service is to be held.
 Greenville was visited this week by Mrs S. Notisstein of Montgomery, one or the inspectors under the child labor law. Mrs Notisstein visited the industrial plants of the city and other business houses who employ labor. She made thorough inspection and ex- plained to the employers the importance
 of complying to the letter with the state law of child labor.
 She found several instances where chill dren were being employed, but she was given the assurance by the employers that the services of each would be dis continued.
