GOODWILL INDUSTRIES.

Not charity, but a chance" is to be
the watchword Of a nationwide move
ment to aid handicapped people OF
every age, race and creed. The plan
under consideration is to develop oc-
cupations whereby the crippled, the
manned, the unframed and the un-
fortunate % IL sorts may earn money
for immediate relief, and trades by
which they may become self-support-
ing.
This is a big undertaking. The
worst of it is that it is so much big
ger than it need have been if the
world had not remained so long blind
to the truth.
More mistakes are committed in the
name of kindness and charity than
seems possible. It is generally mis-
taken kindness to do for another what
he can do for himself The good cit
izen is the. self-respecting citizen, and
there is nothing more injurious than
to weaken any persons sense Of self
respect by injudicious charity.
There is hope and JOY in this pro-
posed revolution in old methods and
habits of thought. Busy people are
happy people, and happy people are
good people. Good people make good
citizens. To provide cripple OF
any unfortunate honest work by which
he can even partially support himself
is not imposing hardship on him. L
is setting him in the sun, where Goo

TIE STRONGEST BOND.

Zone nation, ind;visible," says The
child standing a. salute before the
American flag. Yet where do we stan{
! with regard to the strongest bond o.
all the many bonds that go to make
la nation indivisible-a common
speech?
Ten per cent of our adult popula-
ton are unable to read the language
of our country or understand it un-
less it IS translated into some foreign
tongue.
OF the coming citizens Of tais
country eighteen per cent do not so to
school at all.
Out of the first 100000 men sum-
raoned by the draft 100000 could net
read their orders nor understand
them, nor read the letters they re-
ceived from their friends after they
got to camp For these men it was
necessary to maintain a school at each
army camp, to teach them English
before they could be inducted any
further into army life.
If the principles which mean Amer
lea are to continue, education must in
crease. The man who cannot under
stand the plea addressed to him ex-
planning the advantage Of these prir-
ciples, and who can understand the
enemy propaganda Or agitator who
addresses him in. his own language, is
going to follow alien ideals.
Says Mr. Lane: There can be
neither national unity in ideals or in
purpose unless there is some common
method of communication through
which may be conveyed the thought
of the nation.
There is no such one thing so su--
premely essential to a government
such as ours, where decisions OF such
Importance must be made by public
opinion, as that every man, woman
and child shall know one tongue, that
each may speak to the ether, and may
be informed"
While the teaching of the English
language is only part of the bust
ness of Americanization it is the fun
damental without which the rest Of
the structure must be insecure. We
have been negligent too long about
this great factor of our progress, it is
tine that men who speak with au-
thority were needed.

Metz, Nov 25 Correspondence
Thirty-three American wounded sol
diers in a ward Of hospital here who
were left behind by the Germans
when they evacuated Metz cheered
and shouted when two American Red
Cross nurses arrived here to care for
them. The nurses were Miss r. H.
Baxter Of Lewiston, Mont, and Miss
Marion Whitney, of New York City.
It is asserted that they were the first
American women 70 enter Metz after
the Germans left. They had been
summoned in haste from Paris by an
American Red Cross physician, DR.. E.
F Pope of Spokane, Wash, who en-
tered Metz four hours after the Ger
mans departed.
When the nurses arrived the Ameri-
cans were overjoyed and sail wanted
to talk to them at once. They had
been virtually unattended for three
days. Many Of them were unshaven.

ALCOHOL AND DRUGS.

Anyone who has studied the drug
question at all knows that prohibition
OF the liquor traffic increases the Ge-
,nand for habit-forming drugs. 1t is
natural enough that the prospect OF
complete national prohibition within
few months should alarm those
who understand the devastation al
ready wrought by opium, morphine,
heroin and cocaine.
1t is reported that $4,000 men were
rejected in the first army draft alone
because they were drug fends. .
Congressman Kahn, who has been
making Investigations along this line,
saws there are nc less than 100000
people in the Unired States today who
are known to be haoitual users OF
these deadly and demoralizing drugs.
It does not follow, however, that
the way to fight the spread Of the
drug evil is to let down the bars once
more to the whiskey evil.
Alcohol itself has been CONDEMNED
by the sober judgment Of the nation

direct harm it wrought. And ". j

A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
County Roads Should be Built as.CSm.
petitors with the Railroads.

Columbia. Dec. 31.-The Spartan
burg Herald in endorsing editorial
ly the proposed SIS, 100000 bond is.
sue, brings out a strong point. It
says: There are critics Of the pro-
posed state bond issue for the build
ing Of a system of State roads who
profess to see in the proposition a:
great joy-riding program roads being
built for pleasure. This view is, of
course, a bark back some eight or ten
years before the business Of trans
portation of the country. climbed In.
to motor-driven vehicles. Today
roads are needed not for sight
seers. Roads were not built be
tween Spartanburg and Camp Wads-
worth for the benefit Of the visitors
They were built because the thous-
ands Of men at that camp could not.
be fed without roads. The same was
true Of every other camp. The road
situation wassof first Importance.
Now in South Carolina the peo-s
pie of the cities and towns are not
going to be fed by products Of their
own state until there are roads
South Carolina is fed today over the.
railroads. And it will continue to be
fed from the West or the East So long.
as it is easier to get provisions over
the railroads than it is to get them
over the county highways.
THE road question is no longer a
matter of joy-riding.'
Were the roads used only. for.
pleasure purposes there would never
have been any serious talk Of a big
bond issue for improving. The roads
are being used now more for business
than for pleasure. And business is.
demanding that they be improved. -.

GREED.

1t is said that greed has been re-
sponsible for every great d1saste-'
from the flood TO this last war. the
building burns, and lives are destroy
ed. because, the greedy owner would
not pay for proper fire protection. The
excursion boat turns turtle because
TOO MANY tickets were sold. The con
crete building of improper constru"-
ton collapses, the dam on WHICH
somebody collected little graft
breaks down with the result that
lives and property are destroyed; and
so on through all the list of puohc
catastrophes.
That this grea war arose purely Dc
cause of greed there is no question.
That greed is the most dangerous eie'
ment with which the peace conference
will have to contend is unquestior-
ably true.
Fear of this most Of human fal!-
;ngs was at the root Of the suggestion
to sink the German warsh;ps. 10
