preeiative guests, a lovely April
evening, and last but by no means
least, a long table where a fish fry
was Served that was both Inviting
and appetising, and all did full jus-i
I tiee io the supper, for just then they
i had no "other fish to fry." Mr L. T.
; Mills was master of ceremonies and
I was ably assisted by Messrs. Lee Lit*
tl*, Hei\ry Pearce, Pr. Ralph Ste
venson and others. But it would be
hard to tell just who was "the chicf
pOok and bottle washer, captain and
the waiter." The position was upheld
with dig'hity and the entire class re
ceived a vote of thanks from the
ladies for a very pleasant evening.

> Meeting of Cemetery Association
I A meeting of the Cemetery AsSo
elation -has been called Sox next Mon
day asflternoon at* the Presbyterian
/Sunday school. May we bespeak for
,if.a? largo attendance and a generous
response to the (membership roll and
call for annual dues. A new and sub*
? stantdal fence has recently been built
i around -the enclosure by the Associ
j ation backed by the city council and
^ the (people feel assured that the last;
'j resting place of their loved ones is
; securerly guarded. A'a the saying is,
it iih a- good sign of prosperity when
the dead seem to be getting richer.
' Perhaps no town in the state can
boA&t of a more beatftiful and inter
esting eenx-tery than can Camden.
Beautiful, in its seating amid the
L' whispering pines that continue
th tough the years to chant a refrain
to.- those resting there, whoso mem
toryvhaa never, died from the place.
'^Beautiful in its decorations of ever
greens and immortells, roses, lilies,
^stately magnolias, and old-fashioned
cape jasmine that bloom so luxur
i iantly andfUli.ng the air with their
perfume. Interesting, because of its
?ijiHoric vailae,.. The heroes of four
fwftrs toleep beneath its soil and the
manumonts and tombs tell of past
?pq>W r and ^grandeur. Interesting^
t thikt; the pilgrim may find names and
idatps- of the past, identifying the
J M&nt? with the sore precision of ge
?Ologjcal strata. On these *ivy-cov
j red, time-sealed tombs may be found
T,W\names of Camden's first settlers,
; mafty.ef theit* descendants Btill liv
ing here ' and others have been
.broUght back to this corner of the
'?eatt^ they loved ?o welll and so poeti
cally interesting in the number of
quaint, beautiful and .poetic epitaphs,
^?ut/more than all otf this, it is beau
tiful, interesting and dear to the
hearts of the people of Camden, be
cau^c in itv sleep their sainted dead,
^e sdo not think of it as the grim
fc<jepfej?j of an archived past, but as

THE CAMDEN PAG KANT
To lie Portrayed on Historic Hobkirk
Hill On May Day
Ni-xt Friday, May 1M., the Pageant
-?"Camden, Yesterday and Today''?
will be presented on the Kirkwood
Golf I. ink
Historic iltibkirk Is a 'fitting place
to view the scenes, of long ago as
it was on April 25th, 1781, this was
the bttttlefiekl where General Green
with his Americans were surprised by
Lord Kawdon's scarlet jackets, while
the Americans .were bathing or wash
ing: their clothes in the neighboring
-brooks.
The Pageant will depict the visit
<kf Washington and the QN^al recep
tion accorded him ? the stately , min
uet as it was danced at the ball given
in his Honor. Hhe visit of LaFayetto
and a>ll the attending ceremonies ?
the beautiful young- girls who strewed
his .pathway with flowers wi>l be im
personated by their descendants. The
belles and beaux of the sixties will'
move again through the ohl Virginia
reel and other dances of a by-gone
day, which for beauty, gra>ce and dig
l nity have never been excelled.
The 'curtain that has been rung
down upon the past is to be lifted for
a moment and we are to see the his
tory, .traditions and legends of old
Camden.
Many of the old soldiers wtoo fol
lowed the battle-stainec^ cross against
overwhelming odds ? dreading death
not half so (much as surrender ? will
be in (the Pageant.
The stirring scenes* of the ftamtyis
Red Shirt cam-pa igivr? Wade Hampton
and his associates, who made a place
in the hearts of the people more' en
during than any monument thtit can
ever be created (to their memory.
These are oriVy a few of the scenes
that will pass in panoramic review
on May Day?enacted hy the descend
ants of the men who made Camden's
history. Frem the fiery furnace we
have come' out pure gold and Vaised
from the ashes of the past a brave
and beautiful "littlS city of homesv
We havse caught the sunshine of our
clime 'and put it into our homes aind
have ibuilt therein not one ignoble j
prejudice <or memory. We have hung
our latch-strings to our Northern
friends and (have smoothed the path
to Southward.
