place of the Confederate Veterans.
He paid glowing tribute to the
master of ceremonies, Mr.. W. o.
Sturkey who wore the grey uniform
Of the South and said that Mr.. Stur-
key was the kind of rebel he loved to
scc-that the cause of the South IN
that war was as much alive in Mr..
Sturkey today as it had ever been
and that the worlds war had demon
strated the fact that the spirit and
valor which characterized the South
in the Civil War was still predomina-
ting here. Major Tillman referred
feclinclv to the two Mccormick
1oys who gave their lives in the
worlds war, one who died after
reaching home from wounds rece!v-
cd in the war and the other buried IN
Tie poppy fields of Flanders. He paid
a glowing tribute to Robert +. Lee
and said that the greatest tribute he
had ever seen or heard paid to one
man by another was that paid to Gen.
Robert E. Lee at the tomb of the
General when one of his soldiers,
grey, feeble, bent and cripple had
walked Is miles to railroad and
then came to Lexington, Va, every
wear since the war to visit the grave
of his chieftain and then on his last
visit broke down and cried because
he realized that he would never be
able to visit that grave and pay
tribute and honor to General Robert
Lee again. He was loudly applauded
when he referred to South Cardinals
leader in that war, General Wade
Hampton.

MCCORMICK HONORS
CONFEDERATE HEROES

Mccormick, May 11.-Memoral
day was fittingly observed IN NC
Cormick on yesterday. All Of the
banks and stores were closed in the
afternoon and the whole town re-
paired to the Mccormick cemetery,
where rests the remains of % Con-
federate soldiers. The students and
teachers of the Mccormick Graded
School. headed by the boy scouts,
marched in double file from the
school to the cemetery, each carrying
y wreath or bunch of flowers which
were placed on the graves of these
heroes of the Civil War.
Major Henry c. Tillman, of Green
wood, a veteran of the world war and
an orator of marked ability. was the
principal speaker Of the occasion and
he was loudly applauded in approval
of his praise of the heroism of the
Confederate soldier Major Tillman
recalled the cause of the Civil War
and said that he believed now as did
the South of that day and as does the
soldiers of that war today, that the
cause for which the South fought
was a righteous one; that notwlth-
standing the fact that all of the wo-
men and IS per cent of the men alb
horred war, when it was inevitable
the South had always responded
most heroically with her men and
that the women of the South had
played an important part in the vic
tories won. Even though that war
had been ended more than half
century, the women of the South had
always honored the soldier of the
sixties by caring for them and once
each year, at least, they placed
flowers on their graves. He ad-
monished the school children present
to ever keep alive in their breast

The most encouraging thing about

most striking beneficiary of army
opportunity has been Colonel a. L.

the worlds artillery experts. Colonel
Rhoades was forced to learn TO

the simple effectiveness of doing the

possible by the stepping stones of a
progressive past, it may indicate an
even further progress for the future.
The educational aspect of the army
may come not only to include the

application of what the army teaches

Qucncy or battle, or even pactlcally

the logical growth of the times. Per-
haps even in the event of perpetual
pacce we should find such an organi-
cation desirable as a discipline and

 A sliding scale of wages will be paid, according to the members Cf the alli- ance, because of the difference in uU- mestic workers. The explanation is that a woman with no housekeeping experience should not expect to get the same pay as one who has a diplo- ma from a school of domestic science. Many girls depend upon a. housekeep- CT for their training, and their next employers reap the benefit.
 Maids registered with the alliance will be required to give two weeks notice before leaving a place. Opinion is that any who would refuse to do this could not expect to find another place with any member of the organ iZation.

I was glad that I had put on long warm cloak. Dim lights burned in many corners Of the chapel: They did little to illuminate the place. but l gazed on them with great inter- est.

CUSTOMS OF OTHER

An ancient custom observed in countries of Europe on St. Valentine 5 Day was that of the young men draw ing names of maids by chance. A man paid many courtesieS to the maid whose name he had drawn. For a year following each stood to the other in the relation of Cavalier and Lady. An English version of the custom entai1ed as well the drawing of the mems names by the maids. Thus each per son had two valentines.
