Camden, S,'-C., Friday, Sept. 19, 1921,
William J,. Douglas, former gover
. nor ol' Massachusetts,. died in a hos
pital in HoMon Wednesday. Mr.
Douglas began life pegging shoes,
later he established a shoe factory
known as the W. 1,. Douglas shoe
company. For a generation hi-s pie
iure appeared in his advertisements
of his famous shoe and there is hartb
ly a man of a few years ago but who
had seen his picture. He owed much
(>1 his success to printers ink.
America has again captured the in
ternational polo cup., having taken the
first two games of the series from
Great Britain. The four players,
Webb, Hitchcock, Strawbridge and
Milburn have been seen on the Cam
den polo fields and the games have
been watched with a great deal of
local interest.
Two noted murder trials to come
up in the state soon are those of King
an<| Harrell, at Chesterfield, for the
murder of Major McLcUry, and Kd -
mund Iiigham, slayer of live members
of his own family, which comes up at
Conway, this month.
Just Indignation.
Indignant letters of protest are
pouring in on the New York Time*,
which attempted a defense of .Judge
Caver jy's sentences in the Chicago
murder case. The American public
as- u whole has rejected utteuly the'
specious pretexts upon which clem
ency was extended in this case to two
degenerates who happened to be the
M>ns of immensely weajthy parents.
The American public is rejecting
also the efforts to make this case the
basis of a movement to abolish cap
tal punishment. It should do so;
first, because there are some cases
which call for the death penalty and
if the law does away with the death
penalty mob law will impose it;
second, because there is absolutely n >
assurance that a sentence of life im
prisonment will be carried out. How
many people expect that Loeb and
Leopold will spend the rest of their
clays in the penitentiary?
It may be questioned whether
human lift* was ever before so cheap
in this country as ? now, or whether
,it is anywhere cheaper than here.
Nor may any improvement be looked
for until the court* are able to de
serve and command a larger .degree
tif public confidence than they now
enjoy. -Ww? >??".! ' v.:: .

The committee on the year book
consisting of Mrs. ?K. B. Pitts, Mrs.,
Leonard Sehenk and Miss Ada
Phelps reported the work finished and
the chapter accepted it with thanks
and appreciation.
. The study for the coming year will
be South Carolina heroines of the
Revolution and will no doubt prove
ati interesting one as their dignity
and stateliness and formality are
brought in contrast with the freedom
and informality of the women of to
day. o
It was decided to put water in the
chapter hall and thereby add to its
Convenience and usefulness. It was
also -decided to lend the chanter ? h&lL
to the- Civic League for a reception
in* October.
The chapter accepted with pleasure
an invitation from the Kershaw mem
bers to meet -with them the first Fri
day in October and all are looking
forward to this meeting with bright
tfnlicipation.
After business the hostess served
ice cream and cake.

A charming social event of th?*
week was the bridge party . Tuesday
afternoon with Mrs. Leonard Sehenk
as hostess and Miss Alice Roche as
guest of honor. The living room, sun
parlor and dining room of Mrs.
Schenk's beautiful new home were
thrown ensuite and aglow with merry
golds that brightened and gave an
artistic touch to the verdant forest
green.
Seven tables were arranged for the
game. The score prize went to Miss
Kthel Yates, the consolation to Mrs.
L. A. Kirkland, the honor guest was
also remembered.

At a meeting of the Ministerial as
sociation of Chester attended by the
pastors of the Presbyterian, Associate
Reformed Presbyterian, Methodist
and Haptint churches, the association
refused to give itfX support to a spec
ial conference of'4the Y. M. C. A. on
the ground that the organization re
tains such secretaries as Mr. Holmes,
the secretary at (Jreenville, who do
nies the deity of Christ. The Minis
terial association thinks that the
evangelistic churches ought t<> \vith<
hold their support, moral ami finan
cial, until the Y. M. C, A. can give
assurance that it is Christian in its
doctrine.
