BSongs which are well received in the South are "Dixie” and “Wash- ington and Lee march”. In the North and in many other parts of the country the poor acts often ‘wave the Stars and Stripes and play the “Star S8pangled Banner” when they are closing in an effort to make an impression, but the southerners like to have “Dixie” or the “Wash- ington and Lee March” played or sung as the act comes to a close. An act commits suicide if it at- tempts to present “Marching through Georgia™. In fact if it does play the song and it survives the first performance it will get a recep- tion it will long remember when the second performance is presented.

POLES 70 RECALL VALIANT PULASH Pariot Who Died for Golonies to Be Suitably Remembered The names of Kosciuszko and Pu- laski are synonymous whenever mentioned in counection with the American Revolutionary War—both having performed valuable and di tinguishable service in the colonists’ fight for freedom. The name of the former is perhaps more commonly known to Americans, nevertheless Pulaskl rendered as great a service in the war as did Kosciuszko, and gave his life in defending the rights of a people he did not know, but whose feelings he understood. This year marks the 150th anni- versary of the death of Count Cas- imir Pulaski, Polish patriot, who died in defense of the city of Sa- vannah while leading his regiment against the British troops. In com- |memoration of the famous general's death, the Poles $hroughout the United States will observe the an- niversary and pay tribute to the jmemory of a valiant hero. Prepara- tions for a nation-wide celebration are on foot, and in some states bilis have been introduced for the proc- lamation of a holiday on October 11, the anniversary of his death. Better Known in South His fame as a leader is perhaps more widely kunown in the south- ern states, where his military activi- ties centered for the major part of his career as a soldier in the Aemr- ican army, and many towns and hamlets, streets and boulevards, state and city parks bear his name, while monuments to the memory of {his deeds have been erecteq¢ in | Washington, Savannah, Chicago and Milwaukee, and a fort was named after him, General Pulaski died at the early age of 30, after an active military career both in Europe and America. Born of a noble family on March 4,.1748, he was slated for the. bar and studied law. In those days u man of noble birth had to have i certain amount of military training and for this purpose, he went 5| France, where he served his prenticeship under the then- famous at this time was undergoing a po- litical and social crisis, brought oa by dissension in the ranks of the nobles themselves and the downfali of the country was jmminent, Joined Rebellion in Poland In 1679, at the age of 21, Pulask returned to his rative country and joined his father and brothers in an uprising against Stanislaus August- us, King of Poland, whose tacti and overtures to the Russian em- pire were not pleasing to the ears of the patriotic clement. In 1771, Count Pulaski made an unsuccess- ful attempt to capture the King at Warsaw and for this received a sentence of outlawry for a short time. In the meantime the coalition of the three great powers, Russia, Prussia and Austria was realized and further action on his part and those who joined him in the cause, was frustrated, Hounded and hunted by agents of the coalition, he was forced to escape and made his way to France. Meets Franklin ‘While his own country was in the throes of constant changes and was gradually losing its grip on a land that for centuries was the home of his people, another people in a new world, were fighting for liberty and rights. They needed money and help to carry on the fight for the “cause” and for this purpose sought the ald of IFrance. Benjamin Franklin at this time was the am- bassador to the French peorle for! this purpose, and while in Paris met| and talked with many who sympa | thized with the American cause ana ap-| Charles, Duke of Courland. Poland | servic He met roung Pulaskl who was ever ready to help in & pa- triotic cause, and without much thought, offered his services te the cause of American ‘independence. Franklin gave him letters of intro- duction to George Washington, Pu- laski immediately set sail for Ameri- ca and in 1777 joined the Americun forces as a velunteer. Organizes Cavalry His military training in France opened great opportunities for him and soon after joining the army he rendered distinguished services in the battle of Brandywine. For this act congress appointed him brigadier general and placed him in com- mand of a division of cavalry for scouting purposes in the south. This branch of service was not active enough for him, and after five months he resigned and joined the main forces at Valley Forge. Soon after he received permission from congress to organize an independent corps of cavalry and light infantry, which was known as Pulaski's Le- gion, and as such gained considera- ble prominence in military circles With his army of volunteers Pula- ski forced his way through Virginia and the Carolinas to Georgia, al- ways in the limelight with new vic. tories and new gains. His ability to lead was known in every camp, and his zéal and performance of tasks assigned him were a source of moral support 1o others. In 1779 he marched with his men to join General Lincoln in South Carolina, where he performed ef- fectual service. Then came the long sure method.
