What War Really Means ; We publish some extracts from Ex-President Taft's Messages to the American People of the Unit ed States, giving the opinions as to what the war means to worlq:, ; "Tfc is a cataclysm. 1 1 i s a -backward step in Christajn civi lization. It will be difficult t o keep the various'coantries of the Balkans out of the war, and Greece and Turkey may t aire part in; it. All-JSurope is to be the battle ground. It is report ed that the neuerality of Holland has already been ignored. ' , "Private property and commer cial shipplng'under the enemies' flag are subject to capture a n d prize proceedings and , with the formidable navies o f England, Germany,' Russia, Italy a n d France active to the earring trade of the world will be in great part suspended or . destroyed or will be burden with such heavy in surance as tov greatly curtail it, "The commerce o f the world makes much for the prosperity of the countries with whom it is con- ducted and its interruption means great inconvenience and ecnomic suffering among all people whether at peace or war. The capital which the European people have invested by the bil lions in the United States, Canada Australia, South Africa and in the Orient must perforce be with d rawn to fill the war chests of the nations engaged in a death' grap gle.and the enterprises which that capital made possible are likely o be crippled while the hope of any further expansion must be definitely given up. "This general European war will give a feverish activity in a num ber of branches of our industry, but on thewhole we shall suffer with the rest of the world, except that we shall not be destroying or blowing up our existing wealth or sacrificing the lives of our best youg men and youth. : It is hard to prophesy the scope of a war like this, because his tory furnishes no precedent. It is impossible to force the limits of a war of any propoytiens when confined to two countries, I n our own little Spanish war we be gan it to free Cuba and when the war cJbsed we 'found ourselves 10,000 miles away with the Phil lipints on our hancs. '."In "such a war as this, there fore with universal tendeucy to popular control in every country, the strain and defeat in war may iead to a state of political flux in these countries which shall suffer defeat, ; with all t h e attendant defficulties and ' disorder that a change of government in voles. '-'Of tho great powers of t h e world' the only ones left out are likely to : the United Stales' and Japan, 'and perhaps the. United States only, by.re"ason of the alli ance between Japan and England. Japan, if she keeps out; of the war, wgill occupy, the' same advan tourinuwJ noaition. ' 'which will be ours, of complete neutrality, of an actually; judicial : attitude, and, therefore, of liaying an opportun ity at some s time, we hope, to mediate between the powers and to help mitigate this! disaster to mankind. r' , "God moves in mystribus way his- wonders t o perform. Now that the war is settled fact, w 3 must hope that some , gbod - may come of this dreadful scourge. The armament, pf Eur6pe had teen crowing heavier and heavi er, bankruptcy had stared many nations iin the face, conflict be tween races had - begun to devel oped vf It is an awful remedy, but in the end it may be worth what it costs, if it makes this the last war. The influence of Amer ica can be" thrown, most effectivly for peace when peace is possible add for minimum armaments when disaster and exhustion shall make the contending peoples and their rulers see things as they are. :' : ''."' REST AND EFFICIENCY Our Best Work Possible Only When We Take a Weekly "Day of Rest" The refreahing influence of the weekly "day of rest" on a person subjected to the strenuous routine of a busy life is a feature which he himself can duly appreciate in the effects on h i s "feelings" and spirits." The efficiency of the working man, the, length of the working-day, the interjection of pauses for rest in the schedule of labor for persons of different ages and stations in life- ques tions of this sort are constantly arising for solution on a scientif ic basis. ; Not only in the field of manual labor, but also i n the case of the schoolchild, the office boy, the factory-girl, the banker and the merchant, efficiency i s the key-note of the times. . Fa tigue is the ,'enemy of efficiency; and to detect and compensate for lor' overcome "it, is the duty of those concerned with the promo tion of human welfare. ' ' In veiw of this says The Journ al of the American Medical As sociation it is more than passing interest, to know that Dr. Martin and some of his associates in the Laboratory of Physiolgoy at the Harvard Medical School, have been making a careful study of the whole question of fatigue aud efficiency f r o in a physioloical standpoint A long series of ex periments have been made o n first-year medical students who were" following a regular routine of school work during six days of each week. The routine was in terrupted weekly by the Sunday recess, an interval occupied vari ously t by the students, but in no csea in precisely the manner of the week days. The daily obser vations made on these persons during several weeks show that at the beginning of the week the nerve reaction tends to be high, that from then untill the end of the, week there is a fairly a c n tim us decline, and that following the1 interruption of the routine by the intervention of Sunday, it re turns to the original high point. The decline is interpreted a- a cumulative result' of general fa tigue incident to routine. What is even more significant, ho.v evey, is the added fact that a pronounced breaji irvthe routine such as the "day of rest" occas-ions- may bring-about a return of sensitiveness to a high point or, in other words, it restores the nervous tone. 'Studies continued in this direction should lead to some useful conculsions regard ing the maximum of the work, witn respect to both its duration and type, that should determine the conditions under which the organism of man may be main tained without depletion.

The vital Statistics Law has already passed the fondest ex pectations of its advocates and supporters. For the month of June there were turned in to the State Board of Health 10,288 cer tificates bf births .and deaths. The month of May was also a re cord breaker. 9-568 certificates were collected that month and as against 7,387 for April, 7,608 for March and 4,847 for February. These figures tell better than words how our people are taking hold of a new law which means that they will no longer be born into this world and die like so many' horses and cattle without so much as an official record of their entrance or exit. These official records will be worth a great many times their cost in straightening out legal entangle ments regarding descent, age, in heritance and various legal rights to say nothing about their value from statistical and public health points of view.

It will cost some ships as much as $10,000 in fees to pass through the Panama canal. We'd swim the old ditch for half the amount, Brotherly Love has been inter- ed with the honors of war. A slight unpleasantness pre vails amonsr the other nations of the world, but our time is too limited to give it more than a passing thought. After the war comes the bar gain counter sale of battered and bloody thrones. The commercial greatness of this country is so overpowering we can't even scare up a respect able bank panic. All honor to President, who's sense of duty impelled him to write an appeal for world ; peace while sittting at the bedside of his dying wife. ' v Advertising is like investing money at 100 per cent. The re turns are a hundred fold. Peace and plenty beats war and famine. - In the meantime our bumper crops continue to annex more bumps.. ' ' Man proposes and woman lets him propose again. . Uncle Samuel is ft benevolent old gentleman. He'll dig 'down when the time comes. If we can't pull off a war v of our own we can at least indulge in the 'peaceful occcupction of watchful watchin. .' - A Hint to Our Next Representative. There are questions that have to be decided by our representa tives not for their own satisfac tion altogether, but to satisfy the . people they represent. We must have our men or candidates declare themselves before we vote for them, , because wo will not vote for any mau that is go ing to the capitol to vote against our principles or who will stand for any thing that is not for the welfare of the county and the dis trict in which we live. Many a man hafc lost his political paver because he went to the ligislative halls and voted for what .was his interest and he found that the majority of his constituents were of a different opinion from him self. Just now there are many ques tions that are before the people of Madison County, but we don't think there is one greater import ance than the question of prohi-. bition. We would like to have the men who are to run declare whether they are for stricter laws for the pohibition of the import of liquors into our oounty" Other counties have laws that prohibit its import into their bor ders of even any whiskey and the Supreme court has decided that such a law is constitutional and. if it can be done in one oounty it can in another. .' So we call upon the meq who are candidates to tell us if they, are willing to try to have those laws passed for Madison County.-. We are sure that a majority of the voters of the county wish a' strieter law in this respect and we think that they will demand of the man who goes that he do something to relieve them of the incubus and the curse that still is here. It is not so bad as it haa been in the past, but it still is bad and we hope that the men' who go down to llaleigh will try to do something to. alleviate the situation. . ' The News-Record; stands for the law and for the passing of a ; stricter law than the ones we have and we will stand for the man that will come out for the things the people wanted when they declared for prohibition with no uncertain sound some years ago. . Calamity Howlers. r At recent meeting of the Board of directors of a local bank in Gafney, S. C, a dividend of 52 and a fraction was declared. Pretty good evidence that therw is prosperity down in the Pal met to State, notwithstanding tho howls of calamity criers. We do not subscribe for any stock in th "Calamity Howler's Company." We believo in good times, pros- ' perity and happiness and we are . just as well-contented when w have these things at the hands of a Democratic administration as we would if it were a repub- . ' lican or a progressive adminis tration. " Give us good" wages and . em ployment for our laborers, good prices for our farm prducts, a . market; for, our manufactured goods with good prices; all , this f with money in the ianks and on reserve by the government to meet emergencies, ' and w hy should we take stock in the above named firm 1 These things are vastly more important to the or dinary citizen than who , holds the offices and gets the salaries.
