Colony of Germans
May Settle Here
i
Coincident with the announcement
Wednesday night at a meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Chamber
of Commerce that Mr. Joe Thomas
would move his cannery to Camden,
Mr. L. 1. Guion introduced a most
interesting visitor in the person of
Mr. Otto Herold, a German, who has
been touring the South and especially
South Carolina in the interest of colonizing
a number of German, Dane,
Swede and Dutch families.
{ Mr. Herold said that he had been
most favorably impressed with South
Carolina and that he had definitely
decided to bring his colony to this
state, but to what county he had
j not fully decided. He also stated
j that he had been greatly impressed
| with Camden, stating that it was one
j of the prettiest and cleanest little
cities he had visited.
He stated that wherever his colony
j was to be located there would have
to be a cannery in operation in the
town nearby. And when told that
the announcement had just been made
I that Camden was to have a cannery
in operation next year he was highly
pleased.
It is his Intention to bring around
; 500 families to South Carolina and
I to accomodate these people he will
: have to have between 20,000 and 30,1
000 acres and about $100,000 will be
needed to put the movement under
1 way. Thdse people will be engaged
| in the main in agriculture, fruit growing
and cattle raising.
Mr. Herold has been connected
: with the Canadian railways and the
Canadian government for the past
five years. He speaks with a pronounced
German accent, but is readily
understood and those who heard him
listened with interest.

Report of Activities
Health Department
Work of the Health Department
since May 1st.
Seeing the need of such work from
an inside view point we now express
in no uncertain terms appreciation to
those farsighted and progressive persons
who have made it possible that
a full health unit be established in
Korahaw (County, states Dr. A. W.
Humphries, director. Being more or
less experimental in v the beginning,
our delegation was cautious in making
a limited appropriation. Now
since that stuge is passed we feel
sure -that a more liberal amount will
be forthcoming in order that more
efficient work in a larger number of
activities may be done.
Much effort has been given to
health education along various lj.nesi.
There were twenty-five lectures given
at public meetings to a total of 2,038,
exclusive of all conferences and contacts
with individuals at office and
, elsewhere. In addition, there have
been health suggestions to all pupils
at schools when they were examined
by the personnel of the Unit. There
have been prepared 2,482 circular
letters and pamphlets and eleven
newspaper articles dealing with health
problems and conditions existing,
8,068 printed pamphlets on health
topics were distributed.
The incidence of pellagra was such
4 that considerable attention was paid
to the giving of advice and distributing
literature teaching prevention
. and relief from the malady, as well
as selling over 1,000 pounds of dried
Brewer's Yeast. By cooperating
with the County Furm and Home
Demonstration Agents much information
has been given and very gratifying
.results have been obtained.
A total of forty-six specimens have
been collected for laboratory tests
in the assistance in diagnosing different
diseases. Only four cases of
contagious diseases have 'been quar[
arttined in addition to the twelve
contacts. In this connection, let it
be known that under no circumstances
does the health unit take any action
toward the treating^>f the in,
dividual who is sick and^ only concerned
with the prevention of the
! spread by getting in touch with the
i contacts. Therefore those living in
1 a community where there is a con-1
. tagious disease should not be deprived
of this protection by any hesitancy on
the part of the attending physician
f or members of the family of the
f patient in reporting cases of contag(
ious diseases.
During the months of July ami
August there were several cases of
typhoid fever ill the county, the oc,
currence of which is but a reflection
, as to the sanitary conditions existing
in those localities *ln addition to in
struction on sanitation there were administered
8,1)61 inoculations of antityphoid
serum. The demand exceeded
the supply since the allotment of
approximately $400.00 for Kershaw
County was soon exhausted. So far
i as has been ascertained only one
family had smallpox whereupon all
others exposed were promptly vac
cinated. Including these, 596 were
vaccinated against small pox. There
are still a large per cent of the
children in rural schools who have
never been vaccinated and we shudder
to think of the consequences
should an epidemic of smallpox begin.
Realizing that good health and
proper sanitation go hand in hand
much effort has been made to improve
the Tatter ih many
especially at the rural schools. At
present a request is before the Coilnty
Board of Education for consideration
of improvement of sanitary condition? i
on school premises. Apparently this
is a logical step since it not only
serves to protect the health of the
children against intestinal diseases
while at school but will also be an
example to those living in the community
of proper precautions to be
used around their rural homes.
Under hygiene we have had 14
prenatal cases, given a course of instruction
to 34 midwives, and examined
24 infants and 96 pre-school
children. Of this number, 13 infants,
27 pre-school children and three adults
have been referred to physicians
for treatment.
Examination of 1,216 school children
reveals that about '50 per cent
of all have some defect which is noticeable
if not serious. In each case
the parents have been notified either
in person or by notices sent and advised
to consult a physician for ..the
correction. To make a cKeck up on
these would require a great amount
of time, consequently there is no accurate
estimate to be placed upon
the number of corrections. Twentysix
have had their infected tonsils
removed and arrangements are now
being made thrdugh the sponsorship
of the Junior Welfare Workers organization
for another clinic at an
early date
During this period of financial depressiQn
there is urgent need for
nutrition classes and nutrition camps
to be established, and other forms of
activities which is to be hoped will
be accomplished with adequate personnel
and funds to <be supplied soon.

Drive To Be Put On
For Charity Fund
Thursday and Friday, January 30
and 31, and .Saturday, February 1,
pre the dates chosen to make a drive
for funds to curry on the work of the
Associated Charities of this county.
It ia impossible to think or talk of
this work without a mention of Mrs.
Margaret C. Mayfteld. She began
her work in the war and became so
interested that at its close she continued
with the Home Service Bureau
of the Red Cross and gradually
has worked with the sick and needy
until she might almost be said to be
"The Charities" itself. Thia year, to
quote her, the need is greater than
ever before. The failure of the cotton
crop for three years und the lack
of employment makes real distress
and suffering. These people do not
want charity?they want employment
and her idea is always to help them
help themselves. She personally investigates
the cases?she knows them
and because it has become too jargo
and complex a problem for an individual,
a committee has been formed
to secure funds and to help in the disbursement
of them.
This committee had a most informal
meeting on Sunday to be followed
on next Sunday with another to
make very definite plans for a drive
whieii will give every person in this
community un opportunity to help
with this charity right here in our
own midst.
Following is a statement of Associated

White Man Held In
Murder of Patterson
Tom Whitley, a 22 yoar old white
man. of near Kershaw, was committed
to jail about two weeks ago to be
held for investigation in connection
with the foul murder and robbery of
Wyatt Patterson, a highly respected
and worthy negro of near Kershaw.
Patterson's partly decomposed
body was found in a small swampy
patch of woods, where examination
showed that he had been shot with a
shot gun and his throat cut with a
knife.
Detective Johnson, wi,th Sheriff J.
H. McLeod' and his forces cooperating,
have been quietly at work for
several weeks, and Detective .Johnson
two weeks ago urrested young Whitley
ni\d he has been in jail since that
time.
Just what or how much evidence
the^ officers have against Whitley
they refuse to state, hut it is said
there is strong circumstantial as well
as direct evidence against him. It. is
said there may be others implicated.
The negro is said to have hud on his
person at the time a sum estimated
anywhere from $50 to $150, but his
money was gone when the body was
found.
Whitley is a married man with one
child. He comes from a highly respected
family. The slain negro was
a hard-working, honest man and had
a host of friends among white people,
who were incensed over his foul
murder.
Coroner Russell resumed his inquest
on Wednesday and the jury
brought in a verdict to the effect
thut Wyatt Patterson came to his
death at the hands of unknown parties,
hut recommended that Tom
Whitley be held for further investigation,

High School Team
Needs More Funds
Pursuant to.a call from J. B. Zemp,
tieasurer^of the Camden high school
football team, about a dozen football
i fans among the business men met at
the American Legiofi Hall Tuesday
1 afternoon. Mr. Zemp stated that the
' object of the meeting was to devise
I meahr of paying up a several hunII
dred dollar deficit of the team's ex- ,
I j penses for the past season. This /
I deficit wus caused by the fact that
) | the team was one of the best equip.!
ped in football togs in the state and
\ i also by the small attendance at the
\ [ games?the receipts falling far short
. i of previous seasons.
)1 Letters will be written to sixty or
! more business men asking that they
help make up this deficit and it is
hoped a liberal response will be mad?
The high school athletic association
j is also in need of funds to make
1 improvements on the playing field at
' the fair grounds. By spending some
5 money this spring the field will be
. second to none by fall. Contribu'
tions will be greatly appreciated and
' can be sent to William L. Goodale,
acting treasurer for this fund, or can
. be left at The 'Chroniclfc" office.
