'Banks Open Again
With Good Deposits
Tho Kirat National Bunk of this
?Mty opened for unrestricted business
Saturday morning and the first day'a
business since the Unking holiday
was called wax very gratifying to
that institution. The deposits were
heavier than ever known for one day.
j In a conversation with C. J. Shani
? on, Jr., president of the First National,
Mr. Shannon said:
"I am much gratified by the confidence
shown by the public in the First
National Hank. We hpd cash on hand
for any demands that might have
been made upon us, but on the day
| we reopened after banking holiday,
deposits far exceeded withdrawals,
and we had to ship considerable curtency
back to t'ho Ivosoive Hank as
we do not need it here. 1 thihk
there is every evidence of the depression
passing. Things \\re getting on
a normal basis and money is coming
out of hoarding. People are uguiu
sane and going to work."
Likewise the Hank of Camden reopened
for business Tuesday morning
and their deposits were satisfactory.
It is among a number of
banks which reopened under a conservator?H.
G. Carrison, Sr., is the
conservator in charge. It will go
along as usual with new accounts, but
it will take some time to work out
the old accounts.
H. G. Garrison, Jr., cashier of the
handmade the following statement
for publication:
"The Bank of Camden is now open
on the Conservator Plan with its
president, H. G. Garrison, as Conservator
in charge. Its purpose is to
operate under this plan for the present.
and to give the public every accommodation,
consistent therewith.
"The Hank is receiving new deposits
in trust without any restriction
whatsoever and the volume ??f business
is most satisfactory."
Another party of visitors from Columbia
included Mrs. Heyward Gibbe-s,
.Mrs. Edwin Seibels, Mrs. Clarence
Owtns and .Miss Susan Guignard.
Miss L. K. Yates has returned to
Camden and is staying at the home

dreases the property of Mns. Clem
C. Biown, of Camden, and loaned for
| their historic interest. One of the
dresses is of a lovely amethyst taffeta,
with close fitting basque and H
[ Ivas a bustle, the height of fashion
when the drosses were v/orn. The
other is of rose taffeta with drop
shoulder effect, trimmed m a dark
purple taffeta. Both costume* are
perfectly preserved ami of handsome
material. They were <in the wardrobe
of Mrs. Sarah Angelica Van Buren,
daughter-in-law of President Van

while her husband, Major Abram Van

The right window contains two
lovely dresses owned by Mrs. Louise

with real lace fischu, having the full
