I The time for filing pledges and entering
the county campaign for office
closed Monday at noon. There does
not seem to be much desire this year
for public office. The reason probably
is that the field in other pursuits is
more inviting and the pay better.

rAMPAIGN WEEK FOR
INDUSTRIAL M?Mise.Ko i
/ I
Columbia, June 21.?This week
marks the actual effort of the South
Carolina development board to equip
itself with the manpower?individual
members?and the resources necessary
to undertake the big program
which has been mapped out for it.^
In every county 1ft the state committees
are seeking enrollments and
pledges. Many reports are already
in but they will be so incomplete
until the end of the week that nothing
like an accurate forecast is pos-<
sible today. Generally, however, the
returns promise to be satisfactory.
It has been definitely decided that
markets and marketing shall be the
first undertaking of the board after
the completion of the expansion campaign/
This is the matter of utmost!
importance to the farmers and other j
citizens of South Carolina. Gover-I
nor Caoper in his final appeal to the
people to support the development
board wrote:
"The rJan of* the development
board proceeds upon the great principle
that only through self realization
can maximum happiness be
achieved either by an individual or
by a state. Out potentialities are unbounded.
Why not resize ' them?
The board will lead to the establishment
of home cash markets, will giv?
~ 1:~- +Tlir?lc
impctus to hvc xjl w4<w^ v*
and dairy production; will make important
contributions to general education,
to public health, to road
building and so on, and.will be a medium
of exchange for ideas and information,
and in short lend a guiding
hand in every possible way to hasten
full realization of our state's
possibilities. The underlying principles
of the board are broad and the
objectives are specific."
LONG DISCUSSION
ON BOARD'S VALUE
Christensen Indignantly De
nies Charge; Nothing Definite j
Done.
% '
News and Courier.
Florence, June 18.?-At a rather
prolonged meeting here tonight,
which revolved itself around the merits
or demerits of the South Carolina
Development Board and engendered a
controversy between Senator Neils
Christensen of Beaufort, president of
the board, and Walter J. Johnson,
secretary of the local chamber of
cemmerce, the meaning of a letter
written by Prof. W. W. Long, director
of extension of Clemson college,
to his county agents, presented the
most interesting incident.
Mr. Johnson stating that he read
the circular letter, declared, according
to his recolection, it is claimed,
that Prof. Long wa sindorsing the
development board because those
who are behind it control the appropriations
for his institution.
J. W. McLendon, county agent,
said that he had received a letter
*"* * ? T ??~ Uii+ Vi?c infpr
irom jrroiessor jl>uu^ um mu >?
pretation was to the effect that as
Governor Cooper and Senator Christonsen
had always been friendly to
Clemson college and kindred activities
and as thev were headir? tho development
project, support should be
iriven by the institution to it. 'Mr.
Johnson <=aid that the letter was seer
without the consent or knowledge of
Mr. McLendon.
Senator Christensen indignantly
dorior] that he had in any manner
attempted to coerce anyone in indorsing
the development bonrd. The
entire activities of the Southern seti
. t
' _ J
tlement and development organization
and that of the various state developmental
projects were thoroughly
canvassed by both Mr. John*
son and Senator Christensen.
| Mr. J-ohnson said that he was per;
sonally unalterably opposed to the
whole movement and nredirt.ei ih&fc
the program of the development
board would never' be carried out,
and that it would ultimately develop
into a failure.
The meeting adjourned wihtout
anything definitely being done about
the development campaign in Florence
county other than the appointment
of a committee of five Florence
citizens to consider the entirs project.

In Memoriam.
In loving remembrance of my dear
sister, Cora Mayer, \^no departed
this life June 16, 1919.
Just one year ago today, dear Cora,
As always, our innermost thought#
T*71 4*V? TTA11
Tt tx g ITiWU Jf VUy
The wires rang with that sad message,
Critically, come at once.
Oh! how it touched us to think
Of you among strangers r
No loved ones near.
How I longed to go to you,
No one can ever know.
#
But God who knoweth best
Willed it should be otherwise
I So here I lay through all tnat lonesome
>night
Praying, yes silently praying, for
strength
That I might lighten the hearts of
others.
\ 1
| So God strengthened and kept me
J On this earth for a time longer
But you he took to heaven
Where there are no sadness or fare- .
wells, , ' X
There to await our coming
Where there aife no sin and trouble,
Only happiness and love.
Since you left us, dear Cora,
Our home is quite another place.
We meet, but how we miss you.
Miss your joy and your sjniles
But we would not bring you back to
suffer Again
the toil and pain.
\
Sleep on, dear Cora,
Clothed in God's pure love,
Some day we will meet you
In the happy home above.
