J 1 In all probability if Camden pule foith the proper effort we will have an automobile road running by here from A'lnota to Washington. We t?ke the following from the Columbia Slate of Wednesday: "Plaufc for including Columbia j and a number of South Carolina: p. tints on the proposed automobile road from A'lanla through Wash-] Ington to Northern cities will be itushed al once. Members of the' Columbia Aulimnbile club tiave( lie I a consultation with several of the officials of tlie counties through which the road would-pass should it be built through this section, and it U believed that with cooperiilion on tbe part oSother towns the high way will he changed. As planned at present, the road would pass through tbe northern part of the State, taking in Spart anburg and Greenville and from there by air line to the North Tbe route proposed by the Colum- '< bla motorists and others would have the road come through Au gusta and from there through Ai ken, Batesburg, Lexington, Colum bia, Camden, Lanoatter , Rock Hill and on to the North." The advantages of suoh a road are very obvious. Supervisor West is w.lling to do his part In gelling ' the road here but it ia necessary for him to have the oooperaUon of the oitisens. T'>e monled men of Camden hav? a greal opportunity wlthlo their ' tjrasp. Will they make use of l? We shall see. Excursion Rates Via Souther Hallway TO Charleston, S. C., Columbia, S. C.
