uf course there is a loss. But this is
not the only loss. II Chairman Lasker
and his Republican colleagues wish
TO blame Woodrow Wilson and other
Democrats. let them remember that
millions OF dollars worth of powder
was exploded on the western front.
What a waste that was. And think
Of all the good shrapnel and high
explosive shells which were hurled
over the German lines; how much
better IL would have been to have kept
ruch at home, and placed il as exhib-

good leather which our boys used in
marching over France. 1t was a

trat the Best Minds" now feel that
II would have been better if we had
kept out of the war. Then We would
not have been burdened with the awful
sob Of raising taxes; the Germans
would have done that for us--and from
us. Incidentally, they would have
seen TO it that we would not have TO
worry over shipping problems; they
would have handled all shipping prob
5ems for us--and also all other things.
However. there are a few people in
this country who do not regret the

THE IRISH PROBLEM

The sympathy of the American
people goes out to the people of Ire
land just as any normal person
sympathiZes with another who is in
trouble. But this Irish question, like
almost every other question, has two
sides to 1.-THE English side and the
Irish side. In an able editorial Hamil-
ton Holt, editor of the New York In
dependent, presents both sides of the
problem in very concise and con-
vincing manner. On the side of Eng
land he says that Ireland is an inte-
gral part of the British empire and
to expect England to allow Ireland to
secede and set up an independent
government is not more probable than
the United States would allow states
of the Union to withdraw and set up
new government. 1t is true that
England was compelled to permit her
American colonies to set up a sep
arate government, but there is this
difference. The American colonies
were separated from Great Britain
by the Atlantic ocean, while ireland is
one of the isles that form Great
Britain.
Compared with Ireland today the
American colonies were a feeble flock.
With the ocean separating the two
combatants and with the determined
resolution of the American colonies,
Great Britain had no choice but to let
her American revolutionists depart in
peace.
Mr.. Holt emphasizes the fact that
England is to blame for the tempor-
izing policy that she has pursued to-
ward Ireland. He says: Her policy
OF never settling thing right, once
for all, but always compromising, has
got her into her present predica-
ments'
A solution of the tro lhl, from an
American, o 1T least, q South Caruli-
ma stand I~int, Is to give Ireland
home rule, the isle to remain par,
of the British empire. England can af
ford to be liberal with Ireland. allow
ing her participation III the affairs OF
the British empire in proportion to hcI
population.
There have been some wrongs OF
both sides, as usual in such cases. Th,
suicide of MacSwiney, Mayor of Cork
by starvation, (his self imposed star
walton was spectacular suicide) die
not help the Irish cause, rather in
jured it.
There ought to be statesmanshi,
enough among the English and Irisl
leaders to bring order out of the cha
os, order that will bring peace ant
prosperity to both England and Ire
land.

4 BIG OPPORTUNITY

The farmers or South Carolina, as
we'll as the town people, now have an
excellent chance to reduce the losses
they have sustained the past year, to
beat the High Cost of Living. and at
the same time to take out an inSur-
ancc policy on health not only for the
head of the family but for every
.nembcr of the family. And what
will it cost to take advantage of this
opportunity? The cost depends on
the way you look at the proposition.
TO many the cost will be the pleas
urc they get out of it, but to others
it will be hard labor.
This Opportunity is a Spring Gar
den, says A. NJ. Musscr, assistant Ex-
tension Service horticulturist More
than enough vegetables for the whole
family can be raised at the expense of
a few hears labor week, and there
will be the advantage of having fresh
:risp vegetables for the table instead
of stale half-dried vegetables which
you often buy at the local stores.
While cost of production in every
line is much higher than 1914, the
cost of producing garden is as cheap
rs 1t was in 1914. Sunshine and rain
cost nothing. 1t takes but little fer
5iliZer, and the time it takes to cult
vatc family garden is many times
smaller than the time the average
man ldles away in a year.
If your income has been increased
spring garden will help save that
increase, and if your income has not
been increased, there is all the more
reason for planting a garden. In
nearly every community in South
Carolina there are men who ALWAYS
%row their own vegetables. These
men are not worrying much about the
price of cotton, for they are in a DO
Sition to hold their cotton until prices
get better and at the same time have
plenty to eat at small cost.
February is the time to start your
spring galden. Make plans now and
order seeds from reliable dealer.
\ good garden will enable you to tide
over hard times that would be much
harder if you had to pay cash for
everything you Get.
