While with the Canadians Dutch

Only a Reflection.

We have had to chronicle grass
fires, and now it is our lot, just to
keep the record straight, to mention
the latest in the way Of fire calls.
Thursday afternoon, few minutes
before six o'clock, Immediately after
we had mailed The Herald and News
edition for the weekend the alarm
was sounded, and the stream of peo-
pie followed the fire company to the
residence of Prof. O. B. Cannon.
From the noise and rush and excite
ment one might have thought the
Boundary street school, the Lutheran
church or Mollohon mill was on fire.
1t didn't last long, however. See
ing what was supposed to be blaze
through a window of the house, some
ore sent in the alarm. Those who
saw it and called attention to 1t took
it to be sure enough fire, it looked
so natural like, and it was an excus-
able act in the circumstances. But
'sthe fire. turned out to be fierce,
fiery reflection from the penetrating
rays of the setting sur. On one oc-
casion Joshua commanded the sun to
stand still. 1t was the same sun
Thursday, only little older and with
more and larger spots, but Newberry

word to old Sol; the, boys just let him
continue his preparstions for throw
ing light to the ChlHese on the other

NEWBERRY COUNTY POST
HOLDS MEMORIAL SERVICE.

Despite the rain which fell Sunday
afternoon the memorial service held
by the Newberry County post of the
American legion was we'll attended.
The lower floor of the court house
was we'll filed and some found seats
in the gallery. The service was a
success in every respect and fine
program was enjoyed.
Post Commander Hal Kohn opened
the meeting with a few remarks which
were very appropriate and which
showed the deep feeling which the
former service men hold for their
comrades who have passed into the
great beyond. Following the song
Coward Christian Soldiers" which
was joined in by the audience, the
post commander then introduced the
speaker of the afternoon, DR.. Geo.
B. Cromer who made fine address,
which was enjoyed by all. DR..
Cromer spoke of the great war work
which the Newberry people had al
ways been foremost in and he paid
high tribute to the memory of those
men who gave their life in the great
world war. At the conclusion Of his
speech, despite the occasion, there
was applause.
Then followed the song, How Firm
A Foundation, and after the singing
of this Miss Marion Jones read
Thanathopsis.
A quartette, consisting Of Mrs. s:
J. Derrick, Miss Margaret Burton,
Rev. E. V. Babb and DR.. Jno. B.
Settler, sang eve Shall Meet But We
Shall Miss Him." The voices in this
quartet were splendidly blended and
this song touched all those present.
Then came the reading Of the Roll
Of Honor, which was done with the
audience standing. The Post Vice
Commander Dr. Jno. Is. Setzler eA-
planned the memorials and made a
short address before calling the names
of the men who made the supreme
sacrifice. At the end Of the roll call
there came the touching notes Of
Taps, sounded somewhere in the dis
tanee by Mr.: W. A. Wherry.
After the, singing of America the
benediction was pronounced by Rev.
J. W. Carson.
The benefciaries who were unable
to be present at the service on Sunday
can get their memorial by calling at
Hal Kohn's stationery store, opposite
the Exchange bank.

"Lieut. MacLean was reported dead

three years ago. The official an

did not question the announcement
but rejoiced that his other two sons,
William and Hugh, both officers, had
escaped.
"Lieut. MacLean had not written
home for so long that he had forgot

directions from his father. When he
