FoRTY-sEcoND DIVISION


The most vivid recollection
that we of the Rainbow Division
have on St. Mihiel day is of those
who went two years ago to their
last charge. We cannot forget.
Blue-lipped, smudged with
sludge, chilled by the wind and
rain of the fox-hole, forming
grimly and without emotion in
the murk which the ground was
throwing up, as heavy as that
which the skies were letting
down, they drove through to
their objective-and to the judg-
ment seat of God. We will not
say that they have died. They
have but passed beyond the
mists that blind us here-and
come to the end of the rainbow.

dier-General, U. S. A.

MOVE STARTED
TO SEND VETS TO
TEXAS REUNION
Two $50 Subscriptions
Enough for Two
Men, Listed

A movement was set on foot yes
terday, sponsored by the local camp.
Sons of Confederate Veterans, to
see that every Sumter county vet
eran who desires to make the trip
to the approaching general reunion
at Houston, Texas, may go whether
he is financially able to bear the ex-
pense himself or not. 1t has been
estimated that about 5000 will be
required to provide for all who de-
sire to make the trip, the individual
expense being about $50 per man,
including reduced railroad fare and
Pullman. Business institutions or in
dividuals who are able to do so are
asked to pledge $50 each, the eX-
penses of one veteran on this trip.
The list was opened with two such
subscriptions, one by L. G. Coun-
Gil and the other by John w. Shiver,
commander of the local camp, Sons
of Confederate Veterans. All 9TH
fund are asked to send their contri-
buttons to the Times-Recorder, Mr..
Shiver, or Gordon Howell, adjutant
Camp 681. Acknowledgements OF
al subscriptions will be made through
the Times-Recorder's columns.
In explanation of this movement,
Commander Shiver yesterday made
the following statement:
''The A. S. Cults Camp, Sons of
Confederate Veterans No. 681, has
always taken deep interest in the
Confederate Veterans of Sumter
county, and have endeavored to as
sist them in every way possible. For
a number of years have sponsored
the movement of raising funds tc
help pay the expenses of those vet
Grams who were not financially able
to defray their expenses.
The veterans are very much in
4 terested in the reunion which con-
pvenes at Houston, Texas, during the
first part of October. In fact moth
ing gives them as much pleasure as
meeting with their "buddies" of the
sixties and living over again the days
that are nearest and dearest to them
They have reached that stage in life
when they live in the past, on the
glowing memories of what has been.
There are between fifteen and twen-
ty veterans who are anxious to make
the trip but are not financially able
and they cannot go unless the funds
are contributed by the appreclatlve
people of the community. A mum,
ber of the counties have raised suf-
ficient funds to send all veterans OF
the county. The amount necessary
to be raised here is 5000.
Of NofnronS max
ing this appeal to the merchants and
manufacturers of the city to assume
the railroad fare of one veteran
which will be $50. The public gen.
erally is urged to send in their en-
tributions to the Times-Recorder
John w. SILVER or Gordon Howell
Announcement will be made in the
Times-Recorder of all contributions
to the fund.
"All who are eligible to member
ship in the Sons of Confederate
Veterans are requested to see Cor,
don Howell and get enrolled. AL
Sons of Veterans, Daughters and
members of family of Confederate
Veterans will be entitled to reduced
rates to reunion. A number of sons
have expressed their intention OF
taking the trip.
"JOHN w. SILVER,
Commander Camp 681, Sons OF
GORDON HOWELL,
ga iutant" "

Gas Well In the

been brought to Yuma, the old
Colorado river has brought into
existence a good sized gas we'll
about % miles south of Yuma.
The Colorado is full of tricks and
no one can tell just what the
river will do next. During the
last flood when the water was
high the river wrote a new chap
ter in its history inasmuch as it
started to bore for oil or gas
near the 23-mile post. During
the high water at a sharp bend
of the river the Colorado dug a
