CIVIC LKAtiUB MEETING
i only a Small Number Present But Many
Matters Discussed.
The meeting of the League, held at
the Library on Friday ^Jaat, had barely
i quorum present, so no business of
importance was transacted.
There was n most gratifying report
nude by Mrs. 0. I*. DuBose, chairman
of the romanittee who has in charge the
improvement of railroad stations which
-Mwiiui's much for the betterment of these
places, and the work at the Southern
nation w already in -progress. The
t,.?n force is doing the grading aud lev
eling, preliminary to laying off the flower
bids which will be heavily mulched with
coin post and planted in peas to -be spaded
in in the fall. The trenches for the
bulges will he similarly treated. With
the help already promised aud money
?contributed by public spirited citizens
jn the hands of a zealous committee of
Mies of the league this ugly, barren
jtpot will soon cease to be n "blot on
the landscape" and a reflection on the
railroad authorities.
It was suggested by a member who
ba> the interest of the , schools of Cam
den very much at heart, that a sugges
tion be made and urged that two ladies
be appointed by whoever woUld have the
-authority to do so to serve with the
three trustees and have a voice and vote
in all matters pertaining to the plans
? for the new huiLditigs that will be need
ed for its use. It was not considered
exactly judicious to put this in the form
of a resolution, but as a tentative sug
gestion. hoping the , powers that be will
r*coguize Hi* wisdom and moral right
-of-it,- . _ ?
Another inntter that called forth
earnest discussion was the advisability
of forming n "parent teachers" associa
tion. but it was decided that this move
would not com <4 exactly under Civic
league business and the matter was de
ferred with our earnest hope that the
proper authorities would form such an
association ,*n the near future.

warmly received in the social circle that
had greatly missed her bright and charm
ing personality. But "death loves a shin

this fair young life. K very thing possible
was done to retard the progress of the
"grim monster," but to no avail, and the
end came last Friday morning in A?he

The remains were brought home and

life that was
"Like a snow-flake on the river?
A moment white, then gone forever."

White Flour with Nutrition
' ? . ^
TO produco a fine white flour, which also retains the
r< al nutrition p.rd sweetness of the wheat^ is the
ambition of every miller.- In the products of the old
Pied mont Mills, "PIZDMONT" and ''PURITAN"
this ambition is realized.
By tl ic Piedmont process of milling these familiar old
brands carry every desirable property of the grain, and
their us? rtsul'.s in the lightest and most wholesome breads
and .pake. '1 he same sat is actory flour is the foundation
of "Argus Self-Rising," from which " the best biscuits are
made simply by the adiii'.bu of milk or water, and lard.
The products of th ; Piedmont mii's have been famous
for a half century. Y<u can buy the Piedmont flour now
in pre-war quality sir.ee the Government has removed
its restrictions on milling.
