THESE few words are written con-
corning the proposed erection Of
a memorial monument to the young
men of Sumter county who served,
and some of whom died, in the Great
World war.
Eleven days ago this campaign,
proposing the erection of a beautiful,
suitable and not expensive, monu-
ment, was launched 1t was to be a
token of love and vcneration from
the hearts of The people, wholly vol
untary. 1t was thought by those who
put forward the plan that the people
had merely been waiting for the OF
portunity to unite on some such q
Plan, In the minds Of the committee
there was no doubt that the people of
Sumter county were grateful and
wanted to do this fine and easily done
thing for THEIR boys
But the committee has failed, thus
far. 1t has been reluctant to admit
that its judgment of the sentiments
of the people was wrong. 1t will not
now admit that the people of Sum
ter county are people more lacking
in appreciation, love for their own,
or forgetful of those terrible days
when they were left behind and thcr"
boys were on the bloody fields of
France, than others. BUT
The campaign up to this time has
not only been a failure but dis
tinct failure, Only the smallest per
ccntage Of the people of Sumter
county have given anything to the
monument fund or shown any inter
est whatsoever in the movemeHt.

There were the dancing daffodils like
romping rustic lasses o;
Their feet were light to trip along
AS is the burden of a song
The wind song borne across the hills
that trills the while it passes o
As went up the summer hills there was
the swaying eglantine;
The loom of 1t, the bloom Of 1t. like
cheeks beneath the tan ashine;
And Q the tilt and Q the toss
or eglantine above the moss!
And the blushing courtesy OF every
tendril on the vine
As l went up the autumn hills there
were the asters everywhere:
Their eyes had caught the purple dyes
OF hazy skies when noon is fair /;
There was the CLINT, there was the
glance.
Within them OF some old romance;
There was the laughing lure Shat said:
"Now come and kiss me II YOU dare y
AS l went up the winter hills the drift
ing SHOWS before me blent;
The daffodils, the egiantine. the merry
asters with me went;
They went with one upon whose face

Beauty, who'd not be content!
