Camden, S. C. Friday, March 6, 1925
Frederick Kbert, first president of
Germany, since Wilhblm was deposed,
died in a sanatorium in Berlin Sat
urday morning following an opera
tion for appendicitis. Kbert rone
from the ranks. He was the son of
a tailor, became a saddler, then edi
tor of a Socialist paper in Bremen;
for a short time managed a hotel In
the same city, and then cKairman of
the executive committer of the Social
ist party. Without a "vice presi
dent" ready to take tht; chair auto
matically a? the head of thv nation,
in the United States, there is
mtich wonderment as to just whac
couvae events will take in the next
few ivcejw.
I)oe? Advertiniug Pay?
Here is some stuff, .credited to the
Kansas City Club News, so good??'that
is passed on:
Advertising has made the Victrola
Dog famous.
It has put Gaatoria. down your
throat, left bristles in your gums, and
then came along with a Uubberset
and.took them out.
It has put Sozodont, Pebbecco, and
Pepsodent on your teeth.
It has put a Gillette against your
hayfield.
It has put Murine in your eye, sold
you Tuticurn for pimples. Pears for
the bath, and Ivory for the tub.
It lias put Arrow collars around
your neck and Ingersolls around your
wrist.
It has jammed yourrfeet in Hole
proof sox, put Paris garters on your
legs and Tiffany rings on your fin
gers.
It has worn out your jaws on Wrig
ley's and posted you on what to buy
to cure corns, warts and bunion-, and
ingrowing toenails.
Go anywhere you want to, <!.> any
thing you wish, and advertising ha
had a hand in it?absolutely.
And then some people ask "Does
advertising pay?"

Association should not sometimes
have some differences of opinion and
even some friction, during the course
qf years of dealing with each other.
On top of all this, we have in the
Stone Mountain situation one <>f the
k ! * * -? 111* t producers of friction and
discord Imaginabltv -scarcity nf fund*
to carry out the plans and purposes
of either. Manyv a man and hia wife
might testify that lack of money is
sometime* a producer of domestic
friction and discord, because neither
can do what the other may expect and
tho skimping and the embarrassment
often creates a case of "nerves" that
makes one or the other sometimes
.too "touchy."
No one can doubt that the Stona
Mountain .situation has. been fraught
with elements conducive to discord.
Neither side can see nor appreciate
the other's viewpoint at present. Both
parties to Uiiu?PJ,U rover sy are "fight
ing mad." Kach is gunning for the
other. Kach blames the other. One
does not have to strain his imagina
tion to see that each side makes out
a prAtty good case for itself. We
find It not difficult to sympathize
wi the viewpoint of either party.
Hut the situation is deplorable. The
country's feeling*, and that of the
South particularly, wo opine, is not
so much a feeling of sympathy with
or censure of either side of the con
troversy as of keen regret that any
thing should have occurred to halt
progress on the magnificent me
morial. Nothing like it oyer has been
attempted before and-completed it
would be a memorial unique and out
standing in the world. ,\Vhat can be
done now to clear up thr situation
and let the work proceed we do not
know, but we are sure that the whole
country v?ould wish that the gigantic
enterprise might be pushed to com
pletiommd we believe that most peo
ple would prefer thpt it should be
carried to completion by the man wh.o
conceived it and whose mind has cre
ated the magnificent memorial image
that has not yet been shaped in the
atone of the great mountain face.
The controversy has brought the
memorial and tho need for funds to
prosecute the work to the attention,
of 'he people of the South and tHir
whole country in a forceful way, and
li. is not unlikely that,'if the two
partie.-v to the quarrel could make
j peace and settle down once again t >
j the great task, the necessary money
i might be forthcoming in greater am
? pkwss than heretofore. it ton
i 1
j much t? hope that a middle ground
! may he found, that compromise may
j be effected, and t-hat the work may
j proceed without the delay of finding
i another .sculptor who would have to
! start all over again largely and take
j months it' not years to do again a
j part <<f th.it which already has been
done ? \
It would be far better if a change
were made in the personnel of the
association backing the movement
than that the magnificent project it
self .should suffer. The undertaking
is greater than any man or woman
in the Stone Mountain Memorial As
sociation, greater than the associa
tion it.M'lf, grcutei than Horglum.
And the public has little interest in j
which nidf to the controversy is right j

interest in the consummation of the j

jfceHERALDS OF PROGRESS
7JTHH telephone workers of
IgLthe Southern Group of Bell
Telephone Companies, op
crating in the States of Ala
bama, Florida, Georgia, the
Qarolinas, Kentucky, Louisi
ana, Mississippi and Tennessee,
4W a bigger and better job last
year than ever before.
Your service is now more ex
tensive, more efficient and
more, valuable as a result of
these efforts.
Last year 147,473 telephones
were installed and 91,580 re
moved, making a net gain of
55,893 new stations. This in
volved gross additions to plant
of #16,354,370.
This large sum was, for the
most part, new money invested
in the telephone industry in the
South. The companies' invest
ment in service as of December
31, 1924, was ?122,749,324.
To manage, operate, main
tain and build this extensive
plant requires the services of
17,1oo men and women, 7,725
in the Southern Bell Company
and 9,375 in the Cumberland
Company. There is one work
er for every 40 telephones.
The total payroll for the year
1924 amounted to "$ 17,652,
684, an average of about
$1,032 per year per employe.
Another big item of expense
,was the tax expense, which
amounted to $3,528,279, or at
the rate of $5.55 per telephone.
These facts and figures are
taken from the companies' rec
ords, which are kept in accord
ance with the requirements of
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. ^
Our happy relations with our
subscribers are reflected some
what in the fact that there are
9,575 stockholders in the Bell
System in our territory.
The telephone workers ap
preciate your cordial co-opera
r tion and patience, which has
encouraged them to work day
and night that you might be
served.
