~ "Home."
'Ti? the gentle pitter patter
Of wee feet upon the stair,
The sound of children's laughter
Gaily ringing through the air,
The shining eyes that smile at us,
Wee lips that hold a kiss
, Far sweeter than the nectar
That the bee froiirt flower sips;*
Tis the lire's*warm welcome
And the lamplight's mellow glow,
friendly books and easy chairs
And the folks we like to know;
The love, and light ajid laughter
^hat go singing through the gloam,
All telling us of peace within,'
That makes a Home, a Home."

Civic League Re-organised
On Thursday afternoon a large
number assembled in the auditorium
of the h?gh seheol fq*' the purposo
of reor aiiizatlon and electing officers
for th< Civic League; The last presi1
dent, Mis. William Aner-um, who was
most efficient and faithful, tendered
her resignation last March, but it was
not accepted. She graciously and
generously held on until June when
she left Camden for a two years' stay
and1 since that time the League has
been without a leader.
The meeting was called to order by
our popular mayor/flHr. C. P. DuBose,
who appointed a nominating committee
of seven who nominated three officers,
Mrs. Carl Foster, vice-president;
Mrs. William King, secretary
and treasurer; Mrs. N. R. Goodale,
historian. These officers were elected
without opposition. The League president
is to be elected at the regular
meeting.
The columns of The Chronicle have
ever been open to every institution
that is for its up-lift, improvement
and progress. We; have already said
so much about the importance of this
organization and its wonderful field
for service that we do not feel equal
to the occasion oi making a more impressive
plea. In this field of endeavor
one j# *$ehly rewarded for
their labor. It is ot^rs to* add-to its
usefulness, cleanlinesfl,_and health! ulness;
ours to make it a town of contentrnent
and beauty and happiness,with
every yard a garden and every
house a home. Then, when tfre autumn
of life has come to us and the shadows
are beginning to lengthen . in the
West, here in this spotjtuhere we havepainted
the baekgiteundof our lives,
we can look at our lovely gardens,
wide streets and spacious parks, and
with our efforts crowned with success
say truly, "Life is good and
sweet and worthwhile!" Then let us
all give service, loyal service, so that^
in the coming years we may look
upon Camden, beautiful Camden, and
sec the mirror of our dreams.
Let us hope that some one may see
their way clear to accept the leadership
of this organi*4t|iehtobe drafted
for service^ Honors by faithful
service and sacrifice are gracefully
