A Flu Bulletin Tha. Afford. Food for

A Flu Bulletin That Affords Food for
Thought.-The following flu bulletin
has been issued by the Equitable Life
Assurance society, an institution which
has very little interest in encouraging
carelessness as to matters Of health:
why was the influenza epidemic
permitted to enter and spread
our country? The answer Is
a simple one and it is especially COM
mended to those who have been so
quick to hold our health authorities
1t is this: ~
$50 far, science has been unable to
provide either a cure or the means OF
influenza and pneumonia
in spite of its earnest efforts to do 30.
"a committee Of our foremost health
experts at a recent meeting of the
American Public Health association.
in Chicago has formally affirmed
this fact. They tell us that while
measures can be taken that may In
some instances ward off this enemy
and that may relieve or retard It's pro-
gress, yet serums and other alleged
remedies are still in the experimental
stage.
"This deadly and elusive enemy
visited America as far back as 164z,
and has come and gone many times
since, leaving traces for long periods.
Why it should make its appearance In
epidemic form almost simultaneously
in widely separated sections OF the
country shortly after. 1t assumed that
form in Boston, why should 1t so sud
denly rise to its highest peak Of act
ivity and as suddenly subside to
much lower level why 1t continues IN
waves why its death rate was much
higher in some cities where public as
semblage was forbidden and masks
worn, than in others nearby which took
no such precautions, why it should
furiously attack one city and only
mildly affiict another nearby with
must denser and more exposed popu-
lation, are among the questions not
easily answered" .

Things that Mr.. Bryan Has stood
For.-The Boston Herald after admit
ting that to William Jennings Bryan
is due the credit of carrying his party
and the nation over acceptance of the
popular election Of the United States
senator's, and conceding that his much
ridiculed grape. juice policy has now
been nationally indorsed, goes on to say
that Bryan further urged the federal
tax, making peculiarly bitter drives
against Mr.. Justice Shiras, whose
changed vote had thrown out the leg
islation along this line in the Wilson
Bill in the Cleveland administration
and concludes by asking What else
has Bryan stood for?" Well, for one
thing, he has stood against militarism
in the United States, and, not SO long
ago, was ridiculed for taking the pos
ition that if the country ever needed
defenders, millions of them would
spring from the ground. How nearly
he was right is eXemplified in the de-
mobilization problem now confronting
the government. 1t was easier, appar-
emily, to get defenders into the ranks
than it is to get them back to their
homes.-ChristiSn Science Monitor

Meantime, of course, he was diligently
clipping our hair when he got the
chance. We used to answer in kind,
hold up loaves of bread on our bayo-
nets and say we were not reduced to
eating "Koppz" butter. He told us
what the Germans would do when they
got London and Canada, and we ,qe-
tailed some of our plans for the sack
ing of Berlin. didn't know what be-
came of him. We didn't get him.
On one occasion four snipers were
advancing considerably ahead of the
infantry during an attack, when one
of our infantry contact" planes was
damaged and seen to fall about sixty
yards in front of them. The aviators
were stunned by their fall. Seeing
them, eight Germans leaped from their
trenches and dashed toward the ma
chine, hoping to complete it's destruc-
ton and to capture it's guns and pa
pers.
Our sniping officer sized up the Sit
uation in a flash. "Pll beat them to
it," he cried, and dashed forward. Had
he not done so we could probably have
picked off the advancing Huns. But,
as it was, our officer masked our tses
We couldn't shoot, but we could shout,
giving him all the encouragement we
could. He reached the machine few
yards ahead Of the Fritzes and opened
up on them with the Lewis gun from
the plane at point blank range. He
wiped the whole eight of them out,
and saved the aviator, to say nothing
of the machine guns and maps. This
act later earned him the military
cross.
Again, at Gallipoli the snipers dis
played remarkable ingenuity in cover
ing the withdrawal Of embarking
troops. In the parapet of the trenches
were fixed a number of old rifles point
ed in the direction of the enemy. To
the trigger of each rifle was attached
a string, which, passing through the
s'ing-swivel, had an empty can sus-
DonOCO us lOOSc cAu.
ly above each Of these empty cans
was placed a larger one, containing
a gallon of water Holes of different
sizes were punched in the bottoms OF
the upper cans so the water would
flow from the upper into the lower cans,
which were suspended from the trig-
ererS of the rifles
AS soon as the embarkation of the
troops had begun, the snipers pulled
out the plugs from the holes in the
cans and withdrew. Thereafter, as
soon as a sufficient amount of water
had passed from the upper can into
the lower one to overcome the pres
sure of the trigger from five to seven
pounds), the rifle was automatically
fired. The different sizes of the holes
allowed the water to flow more rapid
ly into some of the cans than into oth-
ers, so that the rifles were not all fired
simultaneously, thus giving the Turks
the impression that our trenches were
still occupied a long time after they
had been actually evacuated.

GOV. COOPER INAUeURATE0.
Simple Ceremonies on the Front Por
tico of the Capitol.


tico of the Capitol.
At four minutes after o'clock Tues
day afternoon Robert A. Cooper, of
Laurens, succeeded Richard 1. Man.
ming, of Sumter, as governor Of South
Carolina.
In conformity with Governor Coop
er's desire, the inaugural exercises to-
day were characterized by democratic
simplicity. The oath Of office was az
ministered by his lifelong friend ant
former fellow townsman, Associated
Justice R. C. Watts, of the supreme
court Of South Carolina, and the pray
err was offered by his pastor, Rev. A.
H. Templeman, D. D., of Laurens.
Following the ministering of the
oath of office Governor Cooper deliver
ed his inaugural address, which was
generally commended as being con-
ducive to a spirit of political harmony
and general cooperation Of endeavor
among all the people of the state. The
KEYNOTE of the address was education
al advancement and the administra-
ton of all the laws Of the state in the
spirit of their enactment and in ac-
cord with the intent Of the constitu-
tion and the statutes.
/ He said that he would deal with the
legislative department with perfect
candor, and it would find him as ready
to receive as to offer suggestions. He
said that the program which he out
lines would entail additional appro-
priations. and that his educational
program would probably call for the
largest amount ever expended IN one
wear for the public schools, but that
when the taxpayers received adequate
returns upon their investment, and
the future citizenship of the state was
at stake, that it was a matter OF
largest public duty, as well as OF
economy.
Governor Cooper spoke for nearly
an hour and was literally applauded
by an assemblage which represented
every walk of life in South Carolina
and every section of the state.
In beginning his address he refer
red to the righteous ending OF the war
and said that no Legislature which had
ever assembled in the state was con-
rronted with greater opportunities or
eraver responsibilities than those wnich
face us today.
He recommended an act providing
for a minimum school term OF seven
months and a statewide compulsory
school attendance law of all children
between the ages Of eight and IA years
during the minimum school term. Ad-
eouate pay for teachers and school Of
cials was stressed in this connection.
He outlined at some length his po-
sition upon the question of taxation
recommending an executive budget
similar to that in force in Virginia, the
total amount to be apportioned to the
,.arious countries according to taxable
wealth.
The inaugural exercises today de-
partcd from the usual procedure, IN
that they were held on the front por-
,ico Of the state capital. In previous
wears the governors elect took oath OF
office before the general assembly in
the hall of the house Of represen-
tatives.

Foiling the Germans.-There have
been some wonderful tales told of the
way in which men in occupied dis
tricts have escaped detection by the
Germans. To the ingenuity and cour-
age Of countrywomen many British,
French and Belgians owe their lives or
their liberty. There is the case Of that
British Hussar who, in the Mons re-
treat, managed to escape capture by
hiding in a wood and, after many days
and many adventures, was hidden by
two Belgian peasant women in their
cottage. Little by little he assumed the
air and appearance of peasant of the
neighborhood, and passed muster e en-
with the Germans. Then there Is the
story of the treasurer Of French
town who was hidden by his wife in
the garden for three years. AS town
treasurer the Germans were very arX-
ious to catch him and obtain his books,
but the French wife was too much Tor
them, and it was only when the Ger
mans had gone, bag and baggage, that
the town treasurer emerged with his
books-Christian Science Monitor.

much light on the financial status of
Of the Y. M. c. A. He shows that
the amount available for use Is not
nearly SO large as supposed on account
of subscriptions unpaid up to the pres
ent. Some of Mr.. James's other points
are met In this way:
"As for the criticism Of the " can
teens, in all Of them we brought down
the prices of all articles. AS q result
we lost, up to October 81, about 1.s00.-
600 francs, and we expect heavier loss
es for November and December when
the reports Of these months are at
hand Beginning on the first of this
month we started to sell In the can
teens at the same prices charged in
the army canteens, and we have an
agreement with General Pershing
that, should there be any profit, all In
come above outlay will be devoted
to the good Of the men in the service.
Point number two relates to the
personnel. I want to express in the
strongest manner possible my agree
ment, and the agreement TO the entire
association, with Mr.. James's position
that mistakes have been made In the
choice Of certain workers, the same
as he will freely admit has been done

I'm regard to the complaint that the
Y. M. C. A is devoting too much time
and effort to moral welfare work. I'd
say that II safeguarding the morals Of
our soldiers and sailors Is a ground
for criticism and unpopularity, then
the Y. NJ. c. A. is really to plead
guilty. We are willing to await the

than counteracted all the good work Of

If these are mistakes that the Y. M.

Mr.. James predicts that it is on the
way to making another:

Is a ticket home and not a college

ed by the soldiers.
