C.. lonely garrison of one private soi- dier today stands guard over old Fort Sumter where nearly 68 years ago began the drama of the Civil war, . 23, P—A The old fort, in possession of the United States government as a mil- itary post since its construction about 1812 cxcept for the period of the civil war, today has a fortifica. tion of two 12 inch guns of which the one-man garrison is caretaker. Sumter has scen no active ser- vice in more than 60 years, but through the war of secession it was the center of furions fighting cen- tering around the harbor and the city. The first overt act which brought on actual civil war in 1861 took place here. On her secession from the union, South Carolina had re- anired the surrender of all proper- ty within her boundaries held by the national government. Maj., Rob. ert Anderson, commanding a garri- {son of federal troops at Fort Moul- trie, withdrew his garrison to Sum- ter, then uneccupied, as a more casily defended point. A federal steamer, him supplies, sent to give having been driven off by confederate land batterics, the confederate forces demanded immediate surrender of the fort. On Major Anderson’s refusal, a ter- rific bombardment of more than 36 hours destrovad many of the forti- flcations and finally forced the he- leagured federals to surrender and cvacnate. The firing on Fort Sum- ter was announced to be an act of war by President Lincoln, whose immediate call for volunteers re- sulted in mobilization in the north and followed by four years of warfare, Paris-London Airways Carry 13,000 in 1928 Taris. ¥eb, 23, (A—Thirty thou- sand travellers chose the air route hetween Paris and London and vice- versa during 1928 but the ratio of air passengers to rail and channel is still 1 to 100.

The advisability of improving the school facilitics of the district was first broached about a year ago.
