There is an individuality .^out the town entirely its own; a iubtlo charm that eannot be ex plained. But perhaps we have been -on satisfied and now our people have , awakened to the fact that "The mill can never grind with the water that is past," and we believe that Cam Ion's future bright and prosperous 'oums upon the near horizon, in fact ?hat the sun of prosperity and prog oss is already shedding his genial ays upon it.

No fair minded, unprejudiced orson can say that this organization ha- not been and Is a wonderful bene actor to the town. The president i?id his" board of directors are repre sentative young business men and women and the wide awake, well "taiiied young secretary is giving the best that is in him to Camden and its interests.

Then "does u not deserve the support and in Muence of every loyal citizen of the "own and county?-. Usefulness is the mightiest practical force in the uni verse, but alas, how few persons possess it! We are all more or less tainted with selfishness; it. comes up unbidden in our religious, civic aiH -oeial life and impairs our ability for good service, for "When self the wavering balance holds, V It is rarely well adjusted."
