Certificate of Merit
Ciemaon College, June 11.?W. ^
McCoy, progressive pioneer and toad'

successful farmer, ideal landlord, r#*'"

of Mcliee, was awarded a certificate
of merit for notable agricultural work
by t lemson Agricultural ( ollege it

ith only a second grade. uducatiojM
Mj. MoC oy and a brother "twrtlfl
fanning on fifteen acres given ay >
their father. He saved money?.. and*
bought land almost every year since.
Now his early vision bears fruit?
success as the result of fruit growing.
1 he entire Sand Hill region !
shares the harvest, for Mr. McCoy j
was the first man to believe in the j
peach enough to plflnt it extensively,!
showing others that it could be done.1
Not only is \\. L. McCoy the largest
Sand Hill fruit grower, with 250
or more acres of peaches and 125
acres of dewberries on his 3800-acre
farm, but he is the foremost landlord.
He operates on the share-crop basis;
entirely. One tenant has been with1
him twenty years and another fourteen
years. Each tenant, who has
been with him several years, has a
nice home with running water and
other conveniences. The twenty-year (
veteran tenant grows peaches and
dewberries as share crops?so far as
we can learn, the first share cropper!
on such a basis, and in any event, one !
of the few. Is not this extraordinary 1
arrangement a meritorious step toward
the tenantry solution ?
For years Mr. MoCoy has co-operated
with the South Carolina Experiment
station on peach fertilizing experiments
and with the Seaboard Air
Line Railway testing the adaptability!
of 49 grape varieties, both promising1
valuable information.
His spirit of industry, b.rothetdyl
love and fellowship hajs won for W. L,j

Representing a Reliable Company
Mr. R. E. Campbell who has been
residing in Ciearwater, Fla., for the
past year or more, is in Camden this
week in the interest of the Southern
Paving and Construction Company of
Chattanooga, Tenn.
Mr. Campbell had charge of the
company's interests here when the
city streets were paved, and. every
one. was delighted with the Camden;
job. The entire program in Camden
went through without a hitch or un-,
pleasantness between the contractors'
and city council. His company did
the paving work in the city of Newberry
the first time, and so well
pleased were the Newberry folks that
the extended, program was "^awarded i
to his company.
They have also done other work in'
this state and we are told by Mr.!
Campbell that in the thirty years of I
the company's operations they have |
never produced a faulty job. They
are the oldest concern in the South
in this line of business.
Friends of Mr. Campbell and the
other operators Working under him;
would be delighted to see his company
awarded the contract for the,
large paving program soon to be i
under way in Kershaw county. The'
contracts for this Work will be let
by the highway commission in,. August.
Engineers and surveyors are already
at work making the preliminary
surveys on the roads to be paved.

CAPTURE NOTORIOUS BANDITS I
Roy Hud Kay de Autremont Taken in
Ohio After Four Years' Search
Steubenville, Ohio, June 9.?Roy
and Ray de Autremont, arrested here j
last night for the murder of four men '
in connection wHh a holdup of a train
>n Oregon four years ago, late today
were arraigned before an United!
States commissioner and ordered held i
without bond as fugitives from justice.
I ostoffiee inspectors are on their
way here from Washington to file
charges agumst them for robbing the!
mails. After this charge has been
filed, they will be taken to Columbus,
Ohio, for* hearing in federal'
court for an order of removal to
Oregon.
'n qa*c bond is demanded, federal
officials indicate^ tonight, the government
will ask it to be set at $500,000
each. Charges" of murder also
face the men on their return to Oregon.
The brothers?27-year-old twinswere
held incommunicado throughout
the day in city jail here. A heavy
gyard has been thrown about the
jail.
, Both declared today they would
yuive formal extradition proceedings,
When arrested both admitted their
identity.
By a queer quirk of fate, Hugh do!
Autremont, their brother, went on!
trial at Jacksonville, Ore., today'for'
his part in the slaying. ,
R*y, arrested at his home here,;
where he had been living with his j
wife, a bride of a year, told federal >
officials if he had had a chance he!
would have killed them "because he \
knew what was ahead of him." "If
1 had got a chance, I would have'
killed you and then myself. My life !
is worth nothing to me," federal officials
quoted him as saying. He has
assumed the name of Clarence Goodwin.
Roy, arrested at an employment
wgfency, when taken to police headquarters
for booking, said*': "Well, itJ
looks like some of you guys are in;
for a reward." Rewards totaling
$30,000 for the arrest of the men had
been posted. !
Ray s wife, whom he married at
Ironton, Ohio, was prostrated when
she learned of her husband's arrest.
He never had revealed his identity
to her. WTien an officer came to the
home last night, he told her he was
an insurance adjuster and wanted her
husband to accompany him to the hospital,
where his brother had been
taken following an accident.
The wily fugitive fell into the trap, i
and when he entered an automobile, I
hefound himself surrounded by
heavily^atmed officers.
A funnel near Siskiyou, Ore.,
October 11, 1923, the three brothers
are alleged to have held up Southern
Pacific passenger train No. 13, shot
the engineer, fireman and brakeman
in cold blood,' then dynamited the
mail car, killing the mail clerk. Whenthe
mail car took fire, the bandits
were forced t<^ flee^without obtaining
any loot. Bii|t jydstat~inspectors on
examining therwreckage found evidence
which eventually led to their
arrest.
An intensive search got under way
leading to the ren^ote parts of the
world. Hugh was arrested in the
Philippines, where he was serving in
the United States army under an assumed
name. It was soon after his
arrest that federal officers were given
information that led to the arrest of
Roy and Ray.
Delivers Address to Graduates.
Judge Mendel L. Smith, of Camden,
brought a splendid message to the
graduating class of the Saunders Memorial
Hospital Training School for
Nurses Thursday night at the closing
exercises held at the Florence Public
Library. . ?.
He brought to their attention the
dignity of their profession and dwelt
more on the many responsibilities of
their calling rather than the technical
or sdeTfttlfci' side,
r? He used this 'beautiful illustrate*#!
last night that should he passed on.
He spoke* of the great healer Christ
who reached up- with one hand to
grasp the hand of God and with the
other clasped the hand of a devilpursued
child, letting the current of
a endless chain of lova pass thru
his body into that of the afflicted

THE WINTHROP 8KNS ATION
HurKiil I.ikt'ly to b* Heard From Befor*
Kiid of Incident.
(By James ]). Grist)
Governor Richards' fight on Prof.
Willimn G. Burgin, un* of the most
popular and valuable men ever con- 1
nected with the if re at girl's school, '
comes as a shock to the state. It is
intimated that the governor's ire was
aroused because the jfovernor's
daughter told him that Prof. Burgin
had been teaching evolution, etc. As
a matter of fact all Prof. Burgin has
done in that direction is to explain
the theory of evolution as a good educator
should do. There is no proof
that Prof. Burgin ever told uny class
that he believed that man is descended
from monkeys or that tigers were
once jack asses. But the governor
it seems, is u straight-out fundamentalist,
one of those curious persons
who believe that after death the good
will go straight up to heaven to be
fitted with a set of goose or crane or
swan wings and have nothing to do
forever and forever except Hit around
like t agios or Jmzxards or pigeons
while those who were bud here will
K<> down somewhere into an actual
physical fire and burn and burn and
burn.
There are hundreds and hundreds
of Winthrop girls who have sat at
the feet of Professor Burgin and who
like not the way he has been trouted
and it may be that they will bo heard
from later. Indeed there is a report
that just before the college closed u 1
few days ago about 149 out of 153 or
154 seniors signed resolutions of con- !
fidence in Professor Burgin. He it
seems, is a most versatile man. He 1
has edited the college weekly paper; 1
taken an interest in all-college activ- <
ities outside of his own particular 1
duties and in fact is regarded as about ,
the biggest man at Winthrop not ex- |
cepting the president,' who by the 1
way, isn't worshipped on the campus
with such fear and fervor as the public
through the press has been led to
believe from time to time. But because
of monkey business, leal or
imaginary, he gets the gate, while
another Winthrop professor who is
now under fire and likely to be in
the courts for his alleged irregular
doings with a broken bank is reelected
by the trustees and nary a
word said to the contrary. Evolution
is dangerous; but banking is not?in
South Carolina! Professor Burgin is
likely to be heard from before the
thing is over, it is predicted.?Yorkville
