Battle of Camden To Be Printed
Centre*#man W. K. Stevenawi of
this district introduced a resolution
in the national hou>e of representatives
on May 3, which reads: "Renolved,
that the historical statements
concerning the Battle of Camden,
South Carolina, of August 16, 1780,
prepared by Lieutenant Colonel H. L,
Landers, of the Historical Section,
Army War College, Im* printed, with
illustrations, as a document."
Makes a Correction
Lditor Chronicle: The record
mould be kept straight. In your account
of West Waterve tornado, you
refer to "lands willed to the Camden
Hospital," and some of the lands
formerly owned by Mr. John BurdvH
in West Wateree are frequently called
"the hospital lands."
The Camden Hospital owns n<< land
,.t all. except the lot in ( amdi-n upon
wnren the nooptlai is hoilt.
M;. John Burdeli left his estate in
trust "for the sick poor of Kershaw
county, both white and colored," to
t fa-tee* contribute $4,0(H) ?-a<h year

I'ully tjualified
The State notes with gratification
that a professional military study of
the Battle of f'amden, made by Lieut.Col.
How aril L. Landers of the Army
War ' college, Washington, the same
officer who recently wrote a monograph
upon the Battle of Kings
Mountain, is to be made available as
a public document by the lower
branch of the congress, through the
good offices of Representative Stevenson.
Useful as this War college report
will undoubtedly be within its necessary
limitations. The State hopes
eventually to see published a definitive,
extended and richly documented
account of the Battle of Camden,
written by the one man specially
equipped and prepared for the ta?k
Mr. Thomas J. Kirkland of Camden
?Tuesday's State.
FLY SANELY?SAFELY I
Th? fact that aviation ha? riaon
from a onc? overwhelmingly hazardous
pastime to a scientifically correct
business institution was most strikingly
demonstrated to thousands in
Camden Sunday afternoon by George
W. Keightley of the Williams Flying
Service of Greenville,
Mr. Keightley proved beyond
question that more than thirty-six
passenger air (rips in a single afternoon
may be made with the comfort
of a puilman car and a feeling of!
security equally favorable to any
ocean or automobile highway traveler
and witn a degree of pleasure unattainable
in any other mode of travel.
Camden and those especially who
see a gieat air development fas',
coming into a welcome reality can
'well and long profit by the masterly
exhibitions of Mr. Keightley if Cam-:
den is to continue its aviation j
tendencies with the confidence of
nery one interested in any phase of
1 community growth.
Mr. k^eightley upon his first appearance
offers his federal license
wnich restricts the holder to the
operation only of .aircraft approved
and licensed by the department of
commerce and, with the ship in the
air, he shows most forcibly that
every requirement of the depart-'
merit is fully complied with.
Kvery pilot of experience and
reco?Vnzed ability appreciates the .
fact that his license may be revoked
and a Ujie imposed for careles-ri"-or
inattention to duty, for bc.i.g j
under the influence of whiskey vvh.ie!
on duty, for refusal to exnih't h:s;
license upon demand or for violating j
any rule of air traffic.
Further regulations <<f the depart (
iiient prhvide tfiat a j>.]<>''> 1. . i.-c
may be revoked for flying over any
i origesifd area except at a height
vcffficient to pt-rnitt of a reasonably
*afe emergency landing and that
acrobatic flying, which means, intentional
maneuvers not necessary to
a.i navigation, shall in every case be
concluded at a height greater than
1,5)00 feet and shall in no ease bj
'done with a passenger for hire.
The thrill-chaser who will ride
with nfiy stunt flier and who will go
up in a ship long since blacklisted |
under air commerce regulations can j
t hope ultimately only for the traditional
fate of the liquor-soaked auto-j
mobile driver who raced to tie the
, train at its crossing or who evidently
'pulled too far to the right to let the
bridge pass by.
Carelessness may mean a stranglehold
on Camden's present enthusiasm.
Kvery citizen at the outset should resolve
to add to the enthusiasm by
'using care for himself and by reI
porting any lack of another's care

us from later having to say, in th j
words so familiar to every flier, j
"that's just too bad!"
Whin it was stated in Thursday j
morning's newspapers in the article
giving an account of the acquittal of !
Jake Vanderburg at (Jastonia, N. ( ..
that young Vanderburg was to be a
guest of honor at a banquet of the
(Jastonia High School Friday evening,
most people felt indignant, and wondered
how anybody could be guilty
of anythjng so inappropriate and tuft
of tastfc. It is refreshing, therefore,
to learn that nothing of the kind wapver
contemplated, and the news
pape-s are only too glad to proclaim
the fact. How this false report was
givi currency is explained as follow
- by The Charlotte Observer:
"T" -.hool authorities make promp
dei. .. of the report, with the rei:

wonld have been called off, rather

for t:.e local celebrity. The explanation
a-!'. ahced by ITJm Gazette is that
