nmm,?lj j..j?jjiuu.cgewB?wwwan THE CAMDEN CHRONICLE H. UNILKS ^Edilvr Vnd Pabiiaher Published every Friday at No. 1109 'Broad Street and entered at the Camden, South Carolina pootoffice aa second clans mail matter. Price per annum |2.00, payable in adeanr*. Friday, January 23, 1981 Superintendent J. <i. Richards, Jr. has a request in this week's paper asking those who feel eo inclined to Ivelp out with the (milk fund at the Camden public schools. Nothing touches the heart of h man' more than to see an undernourished or scantily clad child and The (Jhconicle hopes that hie request will not fall upon deaf ears. One organisation which had been supplying milk daily has reluctantly had to discontinue its support, hut it is sincerely hoped that people who are in more fortunate circumstances will come to the aid ?f these unfortunate children. We jlo not feel that we are violating a confidence when we tell you that some of . the teachers in this school are dividing their earnings with these little tots in procuring <miIk for them. Surely others will help. IT S III* TO THE .TOWN There is considerable comment going the rounds of the press as to whether or not the auto and the good road have not sounded the doom of the small town. It seems to us that this Js a .matter for the town too*ieeide. If it i.s u live town with .t hunch of good merchants, who hustle, advertise and give the kiial of, servi e thul pleases, the auto and i the ; o<l road will help the town and cam . it to grow anil prosper, flow-' ever. .J tho town is a dead one, no pus' . ro progress, poor and ineornpch I.: m hunts, then tlie auto and the good road will most certainly hasten its end. Easy and rapid travel arc the making <?f a "good town." I'eoplo like to trade in such u town an<I the good road is used by tljctri to visit such a town. The good road is also used by them to get away from a poor town. It is all a matter of the town itself. If the trade is going through our town to other towns, wake yourself up and then wake up the rest of the neighbor merchants ami business men.. Don't knock the auto and the good road?-make use of them.?'Clinton Chronicle. Will .Rogers Says Will Rogers a few days ago hit the nail on the head in one of him daily articles when he remarked that the year 1 it'll) was our most beneficial year in that it knocked some of the conceit nut of us, and that he thought the I ...id just looked us over and decided '<> -et im bark where we t>elonged." : 1 I'/ie miver- t !< - arid di appo.nt meats of : he v.-ar 1vv :i] have b. ee wortti while if w,. >hal! have i. ai n, !

There were three hundred or more l>ug? of fruit and candy distributed by Santa Glaus after a short exercise of Chrj*trna* carols and a recitation, "The Night Before Christmas," by lyouise Wolat. We are greatly indebted to Mayor Kennedy and Mrs. W. L. Wright both for tiieir (presence and interest in sponsoring this very enjoyable nhd humane act. And while there were not enough lmga to give all present the most needy cases were supplied. Another very generous act that needs mentioning is that through the Associated Charities much provision such as sug#r, grits, meal, coffee, canned goods, etc., .were given for our poor and needy people; and nftoT nn appeal to the congregations of Trinity and Mt. iMoriah churches, a sufficient amount, .with jJiat solicited by Joseph Harritcn, had been raised to supply or partially supply the many cases of * needy. And on New Year's five day wellladen bags of provisions were tfaken ut to about sixty of our needy poor; hM of whom scum to be very g>rate ful for this consideration. For all of these timely and genoi?i;-f gifts ..we are grateful. / Yours truly, J. W. Boy kin, , 1. B.

Governor Richards9 Farewell Statement Columbia, Jan. 11).?The man who has guided the" ship of state during the last four turbulent years leaves office tomorrow "with a dear conscience and no regrets." i ^0 eve of hi? departure fur Liberty Hill, where he again enters life as ;l private citizen, Gov. Richards told the Associated Press today if he were able to turn back *the flight of time to January, 1927, he would do exactly as he has done.' And, although he has drawn down on himself scorn and the cry of "fanatic, he would not deviate from the pathway he set for himself one iota he said. H-lar har*- jusl ;iS 1 th'-ught light andt just. In his office on the first floor of South Carolina's massive state h-.use, which he turns over tomorrow to Ibra C.

Bright Just a single bottle of M ASTKRAL, the remarkable new herb medicine, relieved Mrs. George Bright, ,who live* in Oaklawn* "Columbia, S. C\, of the agonizing symptoms of indignation. MRS. GEORGE BRIGHT '"I had ^sickening spells of vomiting after >;meaIs," said Mrs. IJ right, "especially when I ate fried^food. Gas would form and cause terrible pains and cramps, and I" had a sour, bitter taste. I was constipated too, and unsightly .pimples broke out on my face and I was getting weak and run down. "I'd heard so much about Masteral I decided to try it, and I began to feel better right away. Just one bottle relieved those terrible pains, the bitter taste haw disappeared and I'm not troubled with constipation any more." Mrs. Blight's experience is by no means unusual but.meiely a repetition of the happy story now fold by hundreds of former sufferers . from stomach, liver and kidney troubles, who have been relieved by this scientific' new compound of the pure juices of roots, herbs and barks.
