In every community there are boos
ters, men who desire to see their town
expand and grow and who embrace ev
ery opportunity to speak a good word
for its up-building and up-lift. Then
on the other hand in every community
you will find the chronic kicker and
fault finder ? the knocker ? a being de
tested by all good people. An unknown
author fittingly describes these two
diverse types : "When the Creator had
made all the good things, there was
still some dirty work to do, so He
made the beasts and reptiles and pot
sonous Insects, and when he had finish
ed. He had some scraps that were too
bad to put into the rattlesnake, the
hyena.tlie scorpion, and the skunk, so
He put all these together, covered it
with suspicion, wrapped It with Jeal
ou?yr roftrked it w9th a yellow ;strenk
and called It a KNOCKER. This pro
duct was so fearful to contemplate
that He had ta. make something to
counteract it, so He took a sunbeam
ami put in the heart of a child, the
hrnln of n nrmn. wrhoned these in civic
pride, covered It with brotherly love,
gave it a mask of velvet and a grasp
of steel and called Ut a BOOSTER;
made him a lover of field and flowers
and manly sports, a believer In equal*
Ity and justice, and ever since these
two were made, mortal man has had
the privilege of choosing his asso
ciates." Fallow citlren, to which of
these two types do you belong?

< 'ongrcssman Flnley says that there
is no question about the I'nltecJ States

the world ; that It Ih Inferior only to
the navy of England; hut that the
navy needs some scout cruisers, de
stroyers, ^submarines and torpedo boats.
The coast defenses should be strength

moderately Increased, and the National
Guard recruited to a million men on
a basis similar to the plan followed
by Switzerland, which country. Mr.
Flnley believes, has the best trained

C. There will be- abort services with
familiar hymns and. practical sermons,
? ? ?
the emphasis being placed upon "cer
tain and unchanging words of eternal
truth that i>erfain to salvation." This
is a jmrt of a preaching mission of
nation-wide proi)ortions, undertaken in
response to a resolution adopted by
the last General Convention- of the
Protestant Episcopal Church calling up
on the whole church throughout? the
United States to undertake such a mis
sion during the same period of time,
whose sole purpose and aim should bcj
the salvation of men through Him
whose nape is above every name.
A most cordial invitation is extended
to the people of Camden to come to
these services which, It is hoped, will
bring a blessing for the spiritual good
of the whole community. Come and
bring others with you. Dr. Kerslia>v
is no stronger in our midst and It will
no doubt be a source of gratification
to his many friends here that he ltf
the appointed Mlssloiier foj/thls place.
It Is hoped that all who can do so will
avail themselves of the privilege of
hearing him. The hours' of service
will be 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. dally.

THE ISENHOWEK CAN|C.
Noted Murder Trial Likely To Come
Up Third Week at York.
"When Is the iNenhbwejr case com
( lag up? Will it come this term?"
were questions around which most of
the conversation among people attend
ing court yesterday, centered. Nobofly
could answer the qua^t ions for the
simple reason that nobody knows. A
lawyer who Is connected with the case,
told the reporter yesterday that It .was
practically . certain that at least one
of the three defendants, Ernest isen*
bower, .Jesse Morrison and Jim Rawls,
would be tried at this term. He did
not think the case would be reached
before the third week, although he
gave the reporter to understand that
he knew little about It.
Ernest Isenhower, one of the three
defendants, and his brother, Rev. John
Isenhower, si>ent yesterday Ui York
vllle, a fact which was known to oftly
a few i>eople, No reference was made
to the case In court yesterday ai^l
numerous people who are interested
merely out of Idle curiosity, are still
curious. Only one thing is certain
about the case, It won't be tried this
week.
Solicitor Henry said last night that
the case would very likely be tried
this court. He also said that .Solicitor
Albert E. Hill, of Simrtanburg, had
lieen ordered to assist him In the pros
ecution by Governor Manning, and that
M. C. Boulware, father* of Deputy
Sheriff Raleigh Boulware, who was
killed In the battle at Wlnnaboro, and
others, had retained Thos. P. McDow,
Esq., of Yorkvllle, to assist in the
prosecution.
Counsel for the defense will consist
of former Governor Cole L. Rlease, of
Columbia ; A. L. Gaston, of Chester ;
and James W. Hannahan, of Wlnna
boro. Solicitor Henry said yesterday
that he had heard that Claud N. Sapp,
of Lancaster, would l?e among counsel
for the defense.
That Interest in the Isenhower case
Is great.. fcraong York county people
there Is no doubt, and it is likely that
there will be scores of people here from
all parts of the county, as well as from
Fairfield, Lancaster and Chester coun
ties when the case is finally called to
trial. ? Yorkvllle Enquirer.
