LET'S HAVE A REST.

Sumter county has just passed through the expert
ence of two socaled "drives" thrust upon it in the
same week. and both them from the standpoint of the
hopes of their promoters and the merits of the causes
dsappointmens, if rank failures In neither
case after persistent and repeated efforts the
amounts of money sought obtained
There seems to be one patent explanation for this
result The people have had drive upon drive, until they
weary and caloused to such forms of appeal The
'drive" born of the and the necessity in
times of getting things done thoroughly and quickly 1t
was an agency that accomplished what needed But
when war ended the drives on, and with ever in
creasng frequency, until now it scarcely week
goes by without its drive of sort another.
People do not object to giving. But the Albany
Herald, in commenting along the lines, seems to
have reached the real weakness of the drive system
"The trouble about these drives" says the Herald zone
of the abuses of the drive habits the fact that the
whole burden of them falls upon the people in
given community and these constitute perhaps less than
fifty per cent of the whole community, When drive is
being planned the patriotic and enterprisng cit
who have done all the work in previous drives
pressed into service for the These committees
get together and prepare lists of all the people who
supposed to be approachabe, available probable
contributors and here in Albany has gotten to be
that these drive committees figure up how much money
will be required to put the town cover the top and then
deliberately all the victims of previous drives for
about what they shall be called to give. And it
is that these drives have become regular assessment sys
TENS But the system doesn't reach than fifty per
cent of the community, and all the work and all the
paying has to be done by the people constituting the
other fifty per cent" ,...~-~. s-seseer'
We don't know how this wicked old world would
get along without the Salvation Army which is coming
into Sumter county and by which haven't done
duty; and the Boy Scouts deserved greatly than
they received in their modest campaign last week. but
the loyal czenry may be excused for praying for at
least breathing space between these last "drives"
and the next that is to come if we have not seen

THE OCEAN SPAWNED IN ONE HOP.

In these days of great things which frequent
that they common, too little attention will be given
to the achievement of Capt Alcock and Lieut. Brown in
being the first to the by air in nonstop
flight. Their will go down in history but will
probably be replaced in everyday life by those of
others who will dare and do.
To Great Britain goes the glory of the first sue
eessful nonstop flight, and doubt this fact will be
matter of satisfaction to the Daily MAIL that great
English newspaper, in paying the $4,000 cash
prize long standing for the accomplishment Of the feat
1t may be matter of pride to Americans however that
one member of the team although British arman, is
an American, who entered the British air service at the

OBSOLETE NAMES.

A LONG, long time I've listened for names used
- to know but girls christened with
names of long ago. When was young he fellahs
sang lays, at cleaning hours, to stately Isabeas,
who listened in their bowers. Of Ruths some ten
twenty you'd meet at every turn, and there were
James a-plenty, and Abigails to burn. And there
were Juias living in every village street; Eliza
beths giving soft looks to Mike and Pete.
Where are the blthe Matthias who once were run
ming free, the Dorcas and Hildas whose forms
long to see? The good old names are banished, they
fit no modern belle the stately names have vanished
with those who wore them we'll. We borrow names
from posies, when have kids to tag, Violets
and Roses with twilight lovers lag l named my
daughter Daisy, and thought I'd made hit, but
when she's fat and lazy will that cognomen fit? My
aunt, who's large and silly is jeered by other folk
her parents named her Lily, and she is joke
The good old names stately, the fine old names
Of yore; and regret it greatly that they used
no more.
