The meeting was opened promptly at li> a. m. and the full and interesting programme >vhs successfully carried'^ out at oaeb as sembling. The dinners under the tent were n siu'Oes* In every particular. Mrs. W. .1 ])un(i and her efficient committees carried* off everything like clock-work. Hundreds wore fed> and still tll^re was more t?> spare, ^onio ? ?f the Old time slaves were hrough in and provided for. There were also booths on the Court House grounds where snnd svlches, f t**M * a nd cold drinks were dispensed all day. Presentation of Sponsors aud Maids There was not standing room in the opera house at n :.'>() Wednesday even ing when General Clarke presented the sponsors, maids, matrons and eh a per ones, representing almost every portion of South Carolina. The stage was fill ed wUh beautiful, girls and attractive women, and like a rainbow circling-. t he room was the grand march led by Major General C. A. Uoed, of Ander son. with state sponsor. Miss Nancy Lindsay, of Camden. The crowd after wards divided as it was too crowded for dancing ? some going across the street to the Woodmen Hall, oj^ors to the I >. A. U. Chapter Hall, while o|thor*? remained at the opera house. The Monster Parade The parade was "a thing of beauty." and we may add "a joy forever," for it will long remain in the memory of all who saw it as one of the most beautiful in the history of the State. Mr. von Tresckow. as chairman of this committee, is to be congratulated upon it's complete success. The hun dreds of school children in lint* with the red and white of the Confederacy in evidence. ' banners flying and colors waving, was indeed an inspiring and beautlfu! sight. As usual, the schools honored Camden, and next the yeter ans held the first place in the picture. The camp scenes, light- wood fires, fiddling mid war songs on Monument Park, awoke memories of long ago, and Varried many a heart and mind back to old Virginia and "the days that are no more." A fish fry under TEe~dlning tent was one pf the last, but by no means least among the attractions offered the guests. A large quanlty of fish, several hundred pounds had been caught fresh from the Wateree. and was delightfully served by the ladies who were pleased to add this one more courtesy as a testimonial of their love and esteem. Dancing I at the opera house, Wood man's Hall, and the old Court House Thursday evening closed the Reunion of 1921.? said by the Veterans in their resolutions, to have been the very best in the history of the Division. Camden does not wish to "blow her own horn," but her people do rejoice that their efforts were a success, and we acknowledge with much pleasure the testimonials of appreciation that have come to us from the officers and members of the South Carolina Divi sion Cnited Confederate Veterans. If they ever care to return, the gates will be wide open Camden is gamr and ready t?? assume the pleasure v aud duties of ho?t a t any lime in the fu ture. ICast I~iUe Swimming Club.
