A Tribute of Respect
Our Master, in his infinite love,
called frgm our ranks, Mr. David L.
Holley, of the Mt. Pisgah Baptist
church on. April 27, 1932.
We, the members of Mt. Pisgah
church, thank God for the influence
of his consecrated life. As a friend
he was sincere; as a Christian, faithful
nnd constant, spreading sunshine
in the pathway of all those with
whom he came in contact.
His wife has lost a devoted husband,
his community a faithful friend
and his church a loyal worker.
Therefore, as a record of our love
for him, be it resolved:
That we extend to his beloved wife
our deep sympathy;
That a page in our minute book
bo dedicated to his memory;
That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to his wife, to the local papers
and to the Baptist Courier.
Respectfully submitted,
O B. Funderburk,
Mrs. C. 'ST. Horton,
Mrs. W. F. Byrd,
Committee.
Little Local Lines
Mr. A. E. Miller at the Wateree
power dam has an unique show that
is put on for the benefit of his friends.
His collie dog and Rhode Island Red
rooster put up a real scrap. The dog
teases said rooster, who, flyihg into
a rage, attacks his enemy. However,
when the collie gets ready to end the
battle he simply puts his paws on
the rooster's body and holds his head
with his mouth.
Thirty-nine persons fro min and
around Camden were visitors in
Washington, D. C. last week end. All
reported a wonderful time sight-seeing,
base ball, etc. It was said by
a number of the party that they had
never seen so many Austin automobiles
in one city before.
A negro walked into a store in the
county this week with six eggs and
said he wanted to trade them for two
boxes of matches, the balance of the
change he wanted in fish "bucks."
Fred McKinney, who is touring
America on a bicycle passed through
Camden Monday. Said he hoped to
bring back bicycling by his trip and
make work for men in bicycle factories.
Capital idea; a great many
of us should have a bicycle or a fast
walking stick.
Thursday most of the merchants of
the city began closing their stores
at one o'clock for the summer. From
the number of fishing poles seen tied
on automobiles there should be numbers
of fish frys and "stews" on these
olT afternoons.
Man walked into post office the
other day and called for a quantity
<>f 2-cer.t .-tamps. Said he was getting
them now so his letter- would

TOWN TOPICS
' * i;
May is usually a cool month?r#mj
in spite of strange goings on it will
probably run true to form this year..
Ami although it doesn't look pretty
like flowers, nor taste sweet like
candy, nor smell delicious like perfume,
there's not a Mother among all
the Mothers we're acquainted with,
who wouldn't think a ton of coal just
about as pretty, tasty and sweet
smelling a Mother's Hay gift as you
could think of. .
Maybe she wants it just to have on
hand for days when it "must have
hailed somewhere." Maybe she wants
to cook with it. iCoal makes the most
dependable baking fire of all: Everything
from pound cake to ginger
cookies will rise and bake and brown
just right, just from pure gratitude.
Put in your orders at the John M.
Villepigue Coal Company for delivery
at the right time.
.
May was probably named that way
because it* is so fickle^ It May be
and it May not, you never can tell.
May colts lie down in every stream
they come to. May ohicks just droop
over and sleep.
People used to watch old Biddy the
Hen with suspicion if she clucked in
the middle of April?and she was
dragged grimly off the eggs if she ')
stole a nest.
Now people use common sense and
feed their chickens Purina Starting
Chows and keep them warm and dry
and their drinking water fresh.
Rhqme Brothers have the chows for
day-old, week-old, month-old, yearold
(is there no end to how long
these birds live, anyway?) ohicks,
ami substantial crocks for dispensing
buttermilk and water.
If you want a new piece of furniture
for the reception hall or drawing
room, you might buy a new Kelvinator.
They are beautiful from top to
bottom, gleaming like a string of
pearls inside and out.
And they aren't just pretty. They
stand out among electric refrigerators
in many ways, the newest being
their different zones of cold. Cold,
colder, coldest and then the North
Pole itself.
All good refrigerators keep food
around fifty degrees. Kelvinator does
that and keeps meats and fish frozen,
and has a little button you touch to
speed up the parfait when you hear
the company on the front porch. See
the one on demonstration at The
Mackey Hardware Company.
* *
If all the paper that will crackle
as packages are opened by mothers
all over the country on Mother's Day i
were to be heard as one big crackle, I
it would sound like a salute of forty
guns.
It is the biggest "opening" day besides
Christmas. Candy, boxes of
paper, perfumes-t-all the lovely frivolous
things Mothers don't often get
because gloves and hot water bottles
and mufflers are more practical.
But nothing gives the thrill?be the
Mother nine or ninety?that opening
a box of beautiful candy, such as
ArUtyle candy in the fan shaped
boxes does?or having a quantity of
fine quality writing paper and envelopes
to write to all "the children"
on. Drop in Mr. Willie DePass' Drug
Store and see the lovely kinds he has.
James L. Beavers, chief of the Atlanta,
Ga., police force for 20 years
and after a service of 43 years, has
been retired on a pension.
Mrs. Stokes Hostess

The Mt. Zion Home Demonstration
club was entertained on last Thurs- ^
day afternoon at the home of Mrs.
R. L. Stokes. Miss Sadie B. Craig,
home agent, gave an interesting talk
on "Home Making,"* emphasizing the
value of mothers' being a cheerful ^
companion to the whole family and
making the home an. attractive place. i
Mrs. Claud West and Miss Louise
Hunnicutt were nominated as delegates.
During the social hour games j
were enjoyed after which the hostess >
served a delicious salad course with ]
coffee.
? j
I>ee Riser, 60, veteran bootlegger,
is to serve 18 months on two counts
in the Federal prison in Atlanta. He jj
told Judge Webb, at Statesville, N. C.,
that he sold whisky "only to the best
people." He never sold to boys and ? j
numbered doctors, lawyers and
preachers among ;his clientele. He
said one of his preacher patrons is
now dead and another has been de- '
prived of his license.
