TAKE NO CHANCES WITH FLU"
State and Federal Health Authorities
Busy.

Already State and federal health
authorities are taking steps to combat
influenza, and should an epidemic or
the disease occur in South Carolina
this fall, the State will be in readl-
ness so far as is humanity possible to
meet it.
DR.. James A. Hayne, secretary OF
the State board of health, is n re-
ceipt of a communication from rupert
Blue, surgeon general of the United
States public health service, urging
that steps be taken to prepare 1or
the possible recurrence of influenza
in epidemic form during the fall anu
winter. While health authorities 40
not nositiyely predict that the scourge
will/return the surgeon general con-
cludes that if proper protective and
nrecautionary measures be taken
there need be no repetition of last
wears toll of misery and death.
Want to Enroll Doctors.
The names of 100 physicians who
are willing to serve in case of emer-
eency under the direction Of the State
health officer are directed by Surgeon
General Blue. These physicians are
to hold themselves in readiness for
cal, to service in any part of the
State. f. ''''' '-'''-- ''s':.' S''',,. ,'''
Compensation is offered at the rate
of 5000 per month for salary with an
allowance of 81 per diem for sub
sistence and with railroad fare paid.
The salary and expenses of these
physicians are to be borne by the
United States public health service.
The State health officer expects an
immediate and generous response to
this call for physicians |'The physi-
clans of South Carolina are highly
conscious of their duty and are natur-
ally anxious to do all in their power
to avert all unnecessary hardship
and suffering among the people whom
they are pledged to serve and pro-
tect,'' says DR.. Hayne. ''No physi-
clan who volunteers will be called
from his own community if local con-
ditions are such as to demand his,
presence" said DR.. Hayne.
The service rendered during the
epidemic last fall by the public health
service remains clear in the memory
of the public. Seventy doctors and
nurses were employed and their serv-
ices were given to South Carolina,
the public health service meeting the
expense. The Red Cross assisted
greatly in supplying nurses and in
several cases hospital supplies.
Will Assist Again.
% Generous assistance Will he forth

public health service said the health
officer yesterday. eff the need arises
Surgeon General Blue will employ |
100 South Carolina physicians for |
epidemic duty in this State.

Akin, United States public health Off

sicians and to submit names to the |

The Tiger May Retire

Premier Clemenceau, feeling that he has ac-
complished the task for whoch he assumed the
premiership of France, has expressed his inten-
ton of retiring as soon as the treaty is formally
signed.
Assuming direction of the French policy at
the darkest hour of his nations history, Premier
Clemenceau brought order out of chaos, inspired
his people with a new sense of national dignity
and responsibility, encouraged the soldiers to new
heroism and by ceaseless vigilance and the exer-
else of the highest type of craftsmanship contri-
buted major portion to the allied success.
Few premiers of the French republic or of the
entente nations were confronted with the prob
lens that demanded solution when Clemenceau
assumed the duties of premier. His nation had
been undermined by an insidious pro-German
propaganda that had its source in high places
and had almost wrecked the republic on the
shoals of sedition and treason. He had to solve
not only gigantic problems of military policy but
also had to contend against traitors who were en-
throned in high places. 1t took leonine courage
and adamantine faith to make France an effect
i've agent in the face of these obstacles. Tri
umphant over all, Premier Clemenceau now seeks
retirement. His work is done.

The End

Within few days the final chapter of Ger
nlany's dream of world power will be written.
It's representatives will sign the peace pact,
shearing the empire of all its pretensions to a
place in the sun and RELOCATING it to minor
place among the nations of the world. The re-
versal comes after five years Of war-a test of
the principle whether might is right. Germany
has travelled the road Of all powers that violated
moral principles and depended upon brute
strength for the attainment Of prestige and
power. The signing of the peace treaty is the
last step in her degradation.
All the walls and wimperings of her leaders
and all the bombast and yells of her people avail
nothing and mean nothing. Germany asked for
test of force to decide the issue. She was met
on her own ground with her own weapons, and all
lamentations are as futile as they puerie
and indicative of craven nature. The sinking
of her fleet and the exclamations of wrath gainst
the peace terms prove only the depth of her de-
enemies that there is little of honor and chivalry
in her moral makeup.
If. Germany had fought fairly and according
to the rules of civilized warfare, some compass
sion might have been shown her. But her es-
pousal of the theory of "frightfulness her ruth
less submarine campaign, her Smelling of hos
pitfalls and deportation of women and civilians, her
insstent indulgence in practices abhorrent to al
precepts of civilization, made her an object OF
scorn and contempt-an attribute that she may
never lose If Attia's name has gone down in
history as a synonym for cruelty, Germany's
name will stand at it's side term of still
greater reproach and disdain.

Rome-Nero, tyrant, actor and artist,

debaucheries; the poor and humble in

the life led by Petronius; the lawless
streets of Rome by night; the pursuit
of Lygia by Vinicius and his hirelings,
resulting in the death of his profess
sfonal bruiser Croton at the hands of
the faithful Ursus, and the disaster to
Vinicius which led to his nursing back
to health by the Christians; his meet
ing with Peter and Paul: the gradual
opening of his eyes, physical and spir-
itual; his discovery of Christians
everywhere, among the people, among
his own slaves, among soldiers and
others. even in the very court of Nero
And the growing worry and astonish-
ment of Petronius:
"'Vinicius, thou art losing sense,
judgment, moderation exclaimed Pet.
ronius.
