BOY SCOUT NEWS
Owing to the fact that the chief
scribe will be out of town for the
next two weeks, each scribe will hand
his report in to Mr. W- W. Harris, at
The Chronicle. Mr. Harris has kind
ly consented to edit and publish the
news during the absence of the chief
scribe. All scribes are requested to
turn in their reports not later than
Tuesday noon.
On To Summer Camp!
Come on fellows, let's be there.
Remember the dates, June 11 through
25. Every Scout will be well cared
for. Plans are steadily getting into
shape for the big doings. Remember,
Clinton is planning to give the boys
U rousing good time. Let every Clin
ton boy be there to help. The fee
will only be $5.00 per week, and the
boys have the option of staying one
or two weeks. Greenville is going to
have a camp at a cost of $7.00 per
week. Our rate is certainly reason
able. Don’t forget to bring your batlr-
ing suits. There is a mightly fine
place for swimming. Also every boy
will be amply protected while- in the
water, so the parents need not fear.
There will be a commisary for the
sale of candy, etc., to the boys at the
camp. Also every boy will get three
good square meals a day, well cook
ed. Th?n, too, don’t forget the visit
ors days. One or two days during
the camp every father and mother of
Scouts on camp will be asked t o visit
the Scouts, as their guests. Make
father and mother promise to come.
Don’t forget to get your money into
headquarters before June 1. No boy
will be allowed to go who hasn’t his
name and money in headquarters at
Newberry by June 1. Be sure and
talk to father and mother and get
them to let you go.

In New York Speech He Pleads For
Restoration of High Purpose -
In America.
New .York, May 19.—The “funda
mental problem now facing us is the
restoration of high purpose in Amer
ica,” said William Gibbs McAdoo, for
mer secretary of the treasury, at- a
meeting today of the independent
Democratic national convention en-
tertainment committee. Tt was his
first address here since entering the
campaign for the Deniocrateic presi
dential nomination.
“For the last three years, we have
had a complete degradation of ideal
ism in America,” he said. “That
'Idealism that marked tile lead
ership of Woodrow Wilson, all the
ideals, he represented were jeered at
during the last election, an exalta
tion of materialism. We are now
reaping the inevitable fruits of politi
cal and moral debauchery.”
Deriding “normalcy” as a word that
stood for obselete and outworn things
and methods, Mr. McAdoo urged the
restoration of -“applied democracy to
public life and *he philosophy of gov
ernment.”
Among the things essential to our
welfare,” he added, “is an enlight
ened policy of international coopera
tion. Such cooperation, I want to
point out, by no means involves the
surrender of our rights of sover
eignty.
“I am sometimes asked by people^
as to wherein lies the essential differ
ence between the two great parties.
Well, the essence of the difference is
this: The Republican party stands for
’special privileges for some, equal op
portunities for none,’ while the Demo
cratic party upholds the principle of
’equal opportunities for all, special
privileges for none’.”
McAdoo’s speech was preceded by
an introductory address by Hotner S.
Cummings of Connecticut, who said
that all “the forces of progressive
Democracy” were gathering about the
former secretary of the treasury.
Mr. McAdoo told newspaper meh
after his speech that he would out
line his attitude toward the Ku Klux
Klan and his views on the advisabil
ity of nominating a presidential can-
didate bp* Majority n>te in the Demo-
wntion in later
speeches or statementa. These would
