LOAN BANK FUNCTIONING
Fort Mil Association Again Re-
ceiving Applications.

"A special meeting Of the board
OF directors of the Fort Mill Ma
tlonal Farm Loan association was
held Saturday and G. S. Link,
secretary and treasurer, was au-
thorized TO receive applications
fOl loans under the federal farm
loan act, this action following ad-
vices from the National Land
bank at Columbia TO the effect
that the supreme court of the
United States having rendered a
favorable decision as to the con-
stItutiOnality of ther farm loan
act, the bank was prepared to
function again after a suspension
OF more than year. Owing to
the Stringency OF the money mar
ket at this time, and to the fact
that great number of uncomple-
ted applications are on hand, adj
vances on new applications may
be delayed somewhat, but it is
expected that within few
months the system will be operat-
ing more satisfactorily than be-
fore the suspension.

VISIT CATAWBA INDIANS.
School Children Spend Afternoon
on Reservation.

Tuesday afternoon the pupils
and teachers of the fourth and
fifth grades of the Fort Mill gra-
ded school visited the Catawba
Indian reservation, nine miles
southeast of town. Two large
motor trucks conveyed the 70
children and teachers to the res
ervation, where two hours We're
spent.
Some Of the children were sur
prlsed to see real Indians living
Ill houses instead of tepees and
not wearing feathers in their hair
but they did see n number of in,
teresting things. Each pupil
took a box of lunch and this was
spread in picnic style.
Among the noteworthy obscrva
tions for the children at the res
. ervatlon were that the Indians
there dress, talk, act and follow
practically the same pursuits as
their white neighbors. A visit
to the Indian graveyard revealed
the fact that they have even
adopted the names of the white
folk, only one real Indian name
being noticed among many on the
tombstones.
One of the older Indians re-
counted frequent trips he had
made to Fort Mill in days gone
by. That he is "A good citizen was
displayed by the fact that he
was busy preparing his land for
a crop and that he asked about
the march of the allied troops
into Germany.

THREE AT MANASSAS.
Trio of Fort Mill Veterans Left
Who Were at Famous Battle.

Reference in a conversation on
Main street in Fort Mill Monday
to the plan to make a Southern
memorial park of the Henry farm
on which the First Battle of Ma
nassas was fought brought forth
the statement from a Confeder-
ate veteran that, beside himself,
there are only two old soldiers
now living in the Fort Mill COM
munity who were present at the
battle, the three being A. II. Mer-
ritt, Jas. P. Epps and Ira Patter-
son, all members of Company H,
9th South Carolina regiment.
The First Battle of Manassas
was fought on July 81, 1861,
and was decided Confederate
success. 1t was there that Gen. II.
j Jackson received the soubri-
quet bestowed upon him by Gen.
Bee, South Carolina brigade COM
mander, who shortly afterward
fell mortally wounded leading his
troops against the Union forces.
Confederate veterans as a rule
do not seem to recall the First
Battle of Manassas with the de-
gree of qualification that one
would naturally expect. There
was where we lost our best op-
portunity to win the war;" re-
marked recently a Confederate
veteran. "With the Union forces
disastrously routed and running
helter-skelter, we stopped to eel
citrate Our victory instead of pur-
suing the enemy straight into the
city of Washington, which we
could have captured with little
difficulty and then and there end
ed on our terms the war. If we
had gone on to Washington we
would have been saved the four
years of bloodshed that followed,
and think of the suffering and
humiliation the South would have
escaped. to say nothing of what
II would have meant to those of
Us then alive and to future gener-
ations for the Southern Confeder-
acy to have taken it's place
among the worlds permanent
governments. Did you ever
stop to think" continued the
veteran, "that if we had won the
war the Southern people would
have today been the richest peo-
pie per capita on the face of the
globe? WhyY Because we could
have fixed our own price for our
cotton crop and then refused to
allow bale to 60 out of the
country for less than the mini
mum price. I shall never cease
to regret that our armies were at
last overwhelmed.
