Tribute Passed by Sunday School At a meeting of the Presbyterian Sunday School of Camden, held Sunday the following resolutions were adopted: "On the morning of August 20, 1927, God in His wise providence called Catherine Wallace Kennedy into her Heavenly home. Feeling deeply the loss of oen dear young -friend-the,:Sundav k^rhool of the Camden Presbyterian church adopt the following resolutions: "First, That though our hearts are unspeakable sad we would bow in humble submission to the will of a Heavenly Father who is too loving to be cruel and too wise to make mistakes* "Second, We would remember always her sweet disposition, her gentleness and willingness to serve and we would follow her example as she followed Christ. "Third, We would extend to the family tenderest sympathy and commend them to the love of Christ who alone can comfort. "Fourth, That copies of these resolutions be sent to the family and the city papers." Farmers Set Price For Pickers At a meeting held at the court house in Camden on Thursday and attended by about fifty farmers from Varioup parts of the county the matter of a fair maximum price for cotton picking was discussed at length, taking into consideration present conditions of the crop and other matters influencing the situation. The mat1 ter was discussed quite freely by all present and it is believed that the final action taken was what might be considered to be what will come 1 nearest to giving satisfaction to both pickers and landlords. ' It was decided that, a maxftnum ^ price of seventy-five cents per hundred pounds should be setr this to I mean that in any neighborhood where r conations warrant a lower price said lower price is to be paid. In other words the highest price that should . be paid is seventy-five cents. The . lowest price is to be determined by the farmer himself. It is hoped'that the farmers of the . county will adhere to this schedule , as nearly as possible in order to keep r down the dissatisfaotion which so . often prevails among pickers by the spreading of runtors of undetermined j origin concerning exorbitant prices . being paid for picking cotton. 3 mmmm?

Ana wet as Foe ad on Opposite Page 'SMM^BaaBBBBCBBBBSgegggWB^^ . .J i <<m INSPIRED BY LINDBERGH Miss Mildred Doran, Schoolteacher of Michigan, Wanted to ply It was Lindbergh'* flight across the Atlantic that fired Mildred Doran with the ambition to be the fust woman to span the Pacific, it was disclosed today by the 'uir.iij of the missing Hawaii Derby flyer, writes a United press correspondent from Flint, Mich., under date of Aug 1M. Two weeks after "LindyV New York-Paris flight Mildred and some others were in the Lincoln flying field here discussing that feat. Suddenly I Miss Doran remarked:?"I'd like to fly the Pan fie if I hail a plane." It says something for the girl's character that W. F. Morris, part 1 owner of the field, did not interpret the remark as an idle yne. I Mildred had been a regular "fan"( and u frequent attendant at the field during her week-end visits home from her Caro school. He mentioned the matter to his pilots, one of whom was Auggy Peddlar, and uguin referred to it in conversation with H. M. Page,' plant manager of the Loncoln Stand I ard Aircraft Corporation and designer of its planes. Page, Morris and Mildred ap-l proached William F. Mallaska, wealthy owner of gas stations, und asked him to put up the money for thp flight. It was then agreed that Miss Doran should fly and Mallaska deposited a sum said to be $80,000. That was in April. Miss Doran went back to Caro and taught her mixed class of young children, but when school closed June 15 she returned to Flint and began serious preparations. Her father, who had given up 'his job as construction manager for Mallaska and returned to his first love? a farm?was acquiescent. "If my children are of age, I won't stop them from doing something I would have done myself when I was their age," he said. A contract was negotiated with the Buhl Aircraft Company and the machine was built at Marysville, Mich. Mildred undertook the job seriously, her brother said today. She was not the type to do anything merely because it was spectacular. That is exemplified by Miss Doran.'s career since her mother died. 8hF~weTrfr through high school, mean?r time earning some money by working as a telephone operator. When she was graduated, in 1924, and started her two-year course at the Michigan State Normal at Ypsilanti, she added to her studies some measure of supervision over the motherless household. That continued until September, 1926, when she went to teach at Caro. She returned home every week-end and her first care was to look after the house. Pleasure formed a minor-part of these visits, her brother said. She was no jazz hound and paid no particular attention to any one of her boy friends of whom she had many. On the flight she was said to be wearing the pin of Roy McCarron, assistant professor of economics at Ypsilanti, but those who knew attached no particular significance to that. Her particular girl friend, Miss Ruth Williams, of North Adams, Mich., who came to Flint to watch Mildred's start on the long hop, said today that Miss Doran had no vainglorious ideas in attempting to cross the Pacific. "I think the idea caught her imagination," Miss Williams said, "and she determned to go throdgh with it. She is no flapper." Miss Doran was born at Eganviile, Ont., on a farm about fifty-five miles northeast of Ottawa. The family moved to the United States when she was three years old and lived in Gladwin, Mich., for a year and a half before coming to Flint. Despite the passing of hours without information, the brothers and sisters of Mildred bravely refused todav to give up hope for her safety. . "Mildred will come through," Brother William <> saVl. "She's too good to go this way." "Mildred will come through," he said. "She's too good to go this way." If They Still Need Money Then! "Chicago, Aug. 287?Bankers in Ls Salle street were puzzled today over the vision of high finance suggested by William Stellema (>f Holland, Mich. Mr. Stellema had deposited a $1 bill in one of his home town banks and had stipulated that it be left to draw interest, compounded semi-annually, for BOO years. In the year 2427 the resulting fund is to be distributed to his male descendants, If any. Heirs living in Michigan are to receive 75 percent of the total, and those in other States 25 per1 cent. C. Edward Jones, . of the Continental and Commercial Savings Bank and his bookkeeper tackled it. After twenty minutes they announced that a $1 bill left to gather 3 per cent interest compounded .semi-annually for 590 years, would amount to $2^900,000 "That's that," said Mr. Jones with satisfaction. "And it's figured as ;banks really figure interest. We don't compute anything on cents in actual practice?only dollars?and that's the way the $2,900,000 total wafc reached." By telephone he kept in. constant touch with his two aunts, where at the home of one, Mrs. Elmer Gonsler, their younger sister, Helen, 12, sat beside the telephone. While Mrs. Gonsler grew more anxious gs the minutes passed, Helen remained staunch. Helen, who has been "mothered'- by Mildred since their mother's death ten years ago, kept hoping bravely, although appreciating the gravity of the situation. * ' * 1 , Iiestic Theatre BcOOLEST SPOT in CAMDEN DLLOW THE CROWD VTime: Matinee 3:30 P.
