J., Tuesday night. If necessary to get these men to beat down Germany, Congress will make the draft limit 18 to 60. The secretary of the navy made his, address at commencement exer cises of Rutgers college which con ferred upon him the degree of doctor of laws, and whose sons cheered him vociferously when he told what the 300.000 men In the navy are doing to win the war, and declared that all Americans are standing shoulder to shoulder in the light. "Almost every day, in my official capacity, I am now called upon to give a name to a ship," said Mr, Dan iels, "and we are going to get them out faster. We are going to get out the greatest naval thlps produced the destroyers on which men do not sleep for days and do not eat except standing up. "I have knowledge of one destroy er which convoyed 177 ships safely and traveresed 100,000 miles in six months. Admiral Slma, when he came upon this particular destroyer in a harbor expected to find the boys tired of their duty, but he found them fresh and asking no question except 'Ad miral, where do we go next?" Turning then to the draft, Mr. Dan iels said: i "The President of the United States, the foremost statesman of the world and the spokesman for human ity, and the Congress of the United States have called men to the colors to from 21 to 31 years of age. Young men in college from 18 to 21 should stay in college until they reach the latter age. All the training they re ceive, mental and military, fits thorn for a larger service. "The day may come, when if neces sary, Congress inny change the ase limit because men from 21 to 31 can not win the war. Then we will call on the men from 18 to 60 to win tiie war. The great drive of the Prus sians a month ago was made because the German emperor well knows that when Aemrica gets enough ships to carry over her forces, the end has come." W. B.

Played a Irank on Himx-lf The Tourists Have Got Into a I-ansuit. (Frora the Pageland Journal. Boyce Maples, young son of Mr. and Mrs. V. J. Maples, who lives a few miles southeast of Pageland. suf fered a broken leg last Friday after- noun as a result of a fall while wrest ling with another boy. The bone was broken just above the knee. He is said to be recovering as well as could be expected. The most unique prayer meeting in the history of the town was held at the Baptist church last Wednesday ni?ht. Every person present took an active part in the meeting, and each one led in public prayer. One half the whole congregation stood un and read the lesson while the other half listened. Then half the congrega tion prayed at one time and a little later the other half. It was perhaps the most attentive audience ever as sembled here, and there was abso lutely no whispering or laughing while the leader was talking. Per haps the above fa?t3 may be better understood when it Is stated that only two persons, J. C. Blackwell and G. W. Kennington. were present. Last Wednesday afternoon as Messrs. L. L. Parker, Paul Baker. H. V. Mungo and H. J. Ogburn were re turning from Columbia their Ford struck a heavy car driven by J. L. McLaurin, Jr., of Marlboro county, at a turn in the road between Lugoff and the river. Each of them was badly jolted and slightly bruised, and the other car had a hole torn In a tire and a fender crushed. Accord ing to these Pagelend citizens ac count, they were driving cn the right side of the road and the other car was on the same side until they ap proached around the bend, and the driver of the heavy car attempted to cross to his side of the road, but as the cars were so close, a collision was inevitable. The Ford had to be pulled into Camden, but the other car was soon running again. The Marlboro boys asked for damages, which was indignantly refused, and then they attached Mr. Mungo's car tor damages, and a suit is pending in court. Each side will sue for dam ages. Mr. Mungo refused to give bond for the car and left it in a parage for repairs. They expect to recover not only the car but damages to the car and for personal injuries. Mr. H. B. Sowell is a very indus trious man, and he seldom takes the time to go fishing, but the desire to go seized him last Saturday after noon. Perhaps his desire to Idle away some time was caused in part by the fact that he had been suffer ing with toothache and was in no mood to work. His tooth was sore and there were lumps under his jaw as a result of his suffering. So he hitched Dan to the wagon and he and his faithful negro, Vein, hurried to Black creek along about the middle of the afternoon. Until after night H. B." sat on the bank and watch ed the little cork as it moved with the water, but the fish were absent or too wary for him. He succeeded. however, in hooking one catfish hard ly large enough to call a fish. This was the total supply of fresh water fish obtained, but there were other esults of even greater value. A while before midnight they decided to move across the creek. The lead er of this expedition had taken special care not to wet his feet or dn anything that would arouse that of fending tooth into action. The creek at that particular point Is not so very wide and still not so very narrow. Yern was told to go farther down to cross, but this was unnecessary foi an acrobat, and so "H. B." remark ed that he would show the negro a stunt he used to work in his younger days. Up a small tree on the bank he went, his object being to bend the tree over and land on the other bank. The tree failed to bend readi ly, but at last gave way, and to tho consternation of the climber, dropped him right into the creek. W hen another fisherman happened along he found him trying to dry himself by a big fire which he, Indian-like, had made in the forest. The toothache has not returned since the owner was thus dipped into this stream of nice, cool water. Happenings in Anson. (From the Wadefboro Ansonian.) When It was rumored here that the Bickett Battery would pass through Wadesboro Saturday night en route to a point from which it would sail for France, Mr. Sain Houston took up a private subscrip tion to buy presents for the boys. As their train did not pass through here, the money, amounting to about 25, will be turned over to Mr. J. A. it right my aruieu poi Hardison for Red Cross work. If any one wishes his subscription to this fund returned to him. see Mr. Hous ton, otherwise the Red Cross gets all the money. Mr. Louis Lazarakos informs the Ansonian that Greeks in the United states have bought more than eight million dollars worth of Liberty bonds. Louis believes that only a part of the buyers have reported and that more than ten million dollars worth of bonds are held by his coun trymen over here. He has eight $50 bonds and two more coming. He says he invests $15 each week in bonds, hoping that this will keep one soldier at the front Two years ago Louis was fighting in this war in Bulgaria. He says when a man fires his gun and smells the powder, he cares noth ing more for danger. He was a Creek soldier 21 years ago. being a captain in the army at that time. He ordered a man out of his place a few days ago who advised him to convert his money into gold, saying if Germany wins U. S. money will be worthless. Louis is very confident that the Al lies will win and longs to see the day when Germany Is crushed forever. John McCall. colored, visited his colored friends from Union county at Camp Jackson Sunday. He reports that he found them well and enjoy ing army life. Miss Ethel Sprouse returned from a Charlotte hospital weanesaay. where she underwent a minor opera tion. MERCHANT SEVERELY 1JEATEX Haw River Man Refused to lift lUtl Cross I'osters le pat in Window. W. L. Myrick. a dry goods mer chant of Haw River, a town near Greensbore, received a severe whip ping Monday night at the hands of a number of business men. Myrick was accused of having made remarks de trimental to the government on sev eral occasions, and yesterday when a committee of ladies called on him with the request that he put Red Cross signs in his window he is said to have caught one of them by the wrist and to have handled her quite roughly. It is said that Myrick had refused to buy goods from traveling men who wore Red Cross buttons. and had made many remarks not cal uculated to suggest loyalty. He was taken out in the front of his store and soundly whipped, made to sub scribe to the Red Cross and kiss the flag. He was also made to swear that it was a grand old emblem and that he loved to live under it. The Red Cross signs are in his windows today. Sixteen or more soldiers are re ported to have been injured and the engineer and fireman killed when a trrop train was recked Tuesday near Garland City, Ark. Joe Jackson, star baseball player. dodged the draft by securing work in a ship-building plant. The sport ing world, however, did not applaud his action. LMIUENTS .
