The South Carolina delegation to
the national convention at New Or
leans will leave next Sunday. It is
expected that the Palmetto State will
be well represented this year as a
number of legion men will go on the
destroyers' sailing from Charleston.
1t is UNDERSTOOD that Branchville
will have about eight representatives
at New Orleans. 1t is fine when a
small post can find go many men
that are willing to attend. Branchville
post has shown that it is made up of
wide-awake members who can und
will dork for the legion.
"We want home all our own"
is the attitude of the legian men
at Florence. At the last meeting the
question of erecting home for the
exclusive use Of the legion was freely
discussed. With the Florence men ac-
lively behind the movement it is cer-
tain that something will be accom-
plished.
The time is drawing near for all
pt ITS to plan something special for
Armistice Day. This is the great
est event in the legions' calendar and
every post should take proper actic n
to see that it is observed in manner
beftting the occasion.
A Pullman load Of legion members
from the Pee Dee section are expected
to swing into line for the national con-
vention next Sunday. Many members
of the auxiliary will attend in addition
to the regularly elected delegates. All
reservations must be made through
the department. adjutant.

to take pleasure in careful, finished
work.
"We require from buildings a. fros
men" writes Ruskiu in Stones a
Venice two kinds Of goodness; frst
the doing Of their practical duty well,
then that they be graceful and pleas
ing in doing it, This is one secret Of
acceptable service, that the doer shall
find joy in his work rather than seek
all his pleasure as a thing apart.
This we can emphasize 70 our little
citizens, showing them as consistently
as possible that we do find joy in
duties.
Our children will receive their firm
est foundation in the matter Of their
responsibility toward the community
from the stress which is laid by happy
example and persistent teaching on
the safe guarding Of the community
welfare by the right sort OF homes.

gins charming story Mother Careys
Chickens" Theirs was a home whose
light could not by any possibility be
hid. Mother Carey gives the keynote
in saying to her children when they
move into the village Of Beulah, Eve
must make it a home; as beautiful
and complete as we can afford.
One real home always makes others,
am sure Of that! We cannot be hap
py, or prosperous, or useful, or sue
cessful, unless we can contrive TO
make the Yellow House a home. The
river is our river; the village is our
village; the people are our neighbors;
Beulah belongs to us and we belong to
Beulah."

40 American employees of the Aguada
camp OF the Cortez OF Company, an
American-owned concern. Consul Shaw
reported that the rebel chief, Gorozave,
and his men left the camp after 24-
hour stay.
The message seemed to have cleared
the air. but on its heels came another
dispatch filed by the consul, saying
that the rebels had seized the Pecera
camp OF the Britlsh-owned La Corona
Company and that about half dozen
Americans were among the 81 men
held there
In demanding 1900 pesos for the
surrender Of the Pecera property and
the employees, the rebels fixed July 2
as the date by which payment must be
made Whether the 1900 pesos de-
manded at the Aguada camp was paid

received.
The State Department promptly In

to adequate protection for an American

PREPARING OUR Chill
DREN FOR CITIZENSHIP

Our children are given regular in
struction in citizenship in school, but
the best that can be done for them
there will not alone give them the
urge toward helpful service in the
community that they might have with
the thoughtful cooperation Of their
parents. The talks, songs and pag-
eants Of schools have served to widen
their vision and trengthen their grasp
Of the dramatic events Of the past.
Fathers and mothers can help them 70
express their appreciation Of the time
and country in which they live in
terms Of everyday service. To teach
them that they have an Important
part in keeping a happy, well-ordered
home and that the atmosphere Of a
community is the atmosphere Of its
homes, is to lay a foundation for sub
stantial citizenship later. To add to
this sense Of responsibility toward a
younger child in ones own family or
a friends or toward animal pets, is at
least 10 start the habit Of considering
the interests Of others. Just 10 keep
emphasizing these two points day af-
ter day so that they become a part Of
the children's lives is no small task in
itself.
However eager a young person
may be TO serve his community, his
impulse will be dissipated or accom-
plish harm rather than good unless
his efforts are intelligent In Maud
