Wo were told thin week by on? of.
the manager* that he noticed last'
fiaturday night that several of the
firm* who had signed the agreement'
to dose their store* at ten o'clock
were not living up to their agrep-,
merit ami kept their place* open until j
after eleven, lie also stated to u*
lhtft if this practice kept up that his'
employer would require him to stay;
open also and by that mean* it would
break up the whole agreement. It
i* a most worthy request that the
ministers of Camden have made of
4, the business house* and those who|
have s.gnod the agreement should
kf? their pledge. The public would1
boon get accustomed to the early
agreement and would do their trad-j
ing earlier.
Deadly Chattel Mortgage.
For the past several months, to tho
shame of Union county, almost onefourth
of the population has been fed
and partially clothed at the expense
of the Federal government. Today
many school children are undernourished
because of the lack of proper
and adequate food.
Let's not mmcp matters, but rather!
admit that most of this bad condition j
has come about by wajpoof the chattel.

we could perform?until we tried!
It took Joseph Conrad nearly Ave

"AVmayer'e Folly." When published,
he gave a copy to uiw of his nearest
frieruU and wrote on its fly-leaf: My
best remembered sensation about it i*
the perpetual eurprise that I should
be able to do it at all!"
At the age of dO, Conrad could,
barely write English. ,ltut when he,
died, after having written u score or
more great novyls, he was recognised
an cm* of the greatest masters o.f;
English prose in the world! And he j

In the judgment of this human being.
there are going, to bo more great j
men and more great lenders who will
spring suddenly into fame during the (
next few years, than at any period j
in several decades. ^ The reason ? J
Simply because there are going to be j
more difficulties to face, more tremendous
problems to be solved, and
more ideas to be put to the test bymen
and women of courage and vision.
How did the great benefactors of
the world come about anyway? Well,
by difficulties being borrt so rapidly
about them that they had to mow a
way through them! By trying, and
trying, and trying this and that they
found the way to their goal.
How can we know how to find out j
what we can do' until we try to do j
something? The President of the;
l'n:ted State*, through his frankness (
ir:.i courage, is setting an example to,
the ei.tire world. He believes in trying

BAD-CHECK ARTIST
A woman described ua being about
10 yeara of age, brunette, well dressed
and of a nervoua Wmpeoament baa
recently victimised a numfoer of merchants
in New Bern, {jreenvillt, Kinnton,
Rocky Mount, Henderspn and
Burlington, on checka drawn on the
Dillon Branch of The South'Carolina I
State Bank, which checks were signed
''Consolidated Contracting Company,
by Robt. B. McDonald." /The name
"Consolidated Contracting Company"
was imprinted on the check with a
rubber stamp and the name "Robt. J
B. McDonald" is written on the check
1
in u free and bold hand. The checks'
were made out oiM a typewriter and,
payable to Mrs. Emma t arter in the ^
,-um of $25.00. A check protector is ^
used for cutting in the amount of tM>
check and at the lower left-hand cor-J
ner of the check there usually appears
a notation, written with type-'
writer, "For a c T. J. Hooker."
The South Carolina bank advises j
that they have no such account and
that they arc receiving a number of
checks from various points in North '
Carolina, signed as nbove mentioned,5
on their counter checks. The matter'
hus also been taken up with the North
Carolina Highway Commission, but
they know of no such firm as the
Consolidated Contracting Company,
nor dt> they know of any one con-j
nected with a contracting firm by the
name of Robt. B. McDonald.
Play safe and do not cash checks
for anyone unless they are personally
identified.?Carolina-Virginia Retailer.

EYE FAKERS
|
A few days ago the newspapers in ,
the Piedmont section carried reports!
of renewed activities among the eye j
fakers. One newspaper reported that'
our old friend "Dr." Pierce, formerly
"Dr." King, "eminent" eye surgeon,
this tifno from Washington, but a
year or so ago was from New York,
had been canvassing the farmers in!
Davidson county, soliciting business.
As pointed out in these columns
several times 'before, thes?e fakers always
give a fictitious name dlnd ad-'
dress. They always manage to find)
out just which farmer has an abundance
of cash on hand, which instead
of putting in a bank, he hides in the
big trunk or in the family clock, just
ready, like a ripe apple, for the faker
to come along and gather. It seems
in the particular instance reported
from Davidson county that tbey located
one farmer who had plenty of
cash and who, strange to say, had
been burnt a few years ago. That
time "Dr.*4 King, who had fitted
glasses?dime store products, you understand
? had only charged them
about $20. He got off light that time.
On this trip "Dr." King's successor,
"Ihr." Pierce came along ar.M decides!
that an "operat ion" was necessary.
These f?*!i<.ws always travel iri pairs.
The poor farmer was unable to resist
the hypr. appeal- *>f the two fak- '
ar.d finally agreed * . an "opera"
."U" ' !> performed (>r. r ,s wife's
yes. The " ?|>era! i- r." wa- d- r.e right
triere n the -pot. A;t?-r the soaked
opera! :or. was over, they coolly
told him that the bill was $5Sf> r>U; ,
hv. t. ? reconsidering, toil r:m they j
would deduct the $2! paid '"or the;
g!a--e- purchased from the "Dr." j
K.ng previously, mak.ng the biil
$>G2.?0. The farmer turned over the
cash in good United States 'Urrrency.
These fakers ply their trade among*
the wei'.-to-d > class of farmers in
preference to city < r town. It does j
seem that people would finally learn j
that no reputable physician ever trav- j
eh- around end solicits business. The !
very fact that any such individual ;
calls on people solicit.ng practice is!
prime fa c evidence that he is a i
taker 1: peop.?- would once realize,'

BAYS "KING HULK" THK CAt'BK
Editor Ctmdon Chronicle: I Hee in
the Columbia Record dated April the
flr?t where one Mr. J. F. King say?
in an article "we are educated on
everything1 but politics and until we
are educated politically we will never
have uny better times."
Now I want to say to Mr. King if
he or someone will tell us how to get
rid of "ring rule" in politics we won t
need education or anything. You
know, what we want in politics is
principle. As long as "ring rule" ami j
money and bootlicks are used we will
have the same thing that we have
got now, as every one knows.
Hill Murray said in a speech we
would never have ai|>> better times
nmtil we restored the government!
back to Wv people, and he told thej
truth and nothing but the truth.
"King rule" and money run politics!
from Washington on down. If we j
elect a President .with money and?
"ring rule" what have we got? Some
think we have got, a President now
who will be a President of all the
people; I hope ho will prove to be.
If so we will have a change in national
politics.
Take our state?seventy-five per
cent of the people were against the
road bond issue. What put it over
on us? Nothing but "ring rule" in
politics, as everyone knows. Why
was Olin Johnston not seated as
Governor? He was elected, as everyone
knows. Just two reasons: One
was he was against the bond issue;
the other was "ring rule." Why did
the state executive committee refuse
to give Johnston a recount after he!
told them he would pay every cent of
the cost himself? "King rule." Why
did Charleston burn their ballots?
"Ring rule" to the core.
Ninety ;>?-r cent of the people did
n-'t want the World War. Why did j
a - have t ? "Ring rule" and noth- ;
; r Why did Fre-l lent Wilson'
say we ma.-; have the war? Why,,
to make the world safe for Demo-r
eracy, and he lied when he -aid that.
In the name of God and high Heaven,
what sort of Democracy have we got!
r.ow? Why did we have the war?
Wall Street and the money sharks had
let France and England have all the
money that they could spare and both
nations were about to get whipped
ind we went over to keep their bonds
from being nullified. That is why
we are having to pay all this pension
now and why we have so many orphans
and widows.
"Ring rule." No wonder we read
in the Bible that at the Jifdgment
the chief captains and the mighty
men will call for the rocks and mounr.
tains to fall on them and hide them
from the face of God and the wratb
of the Igimb. Yet in the face of all
this some people in this state and
everywhere thought more of Wilson
th:in they ever did or ever will think
of Jesus Christ.
"Ring rule." The Good Book says
when the righteous rule, the people
rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the
people mourn.
Take our present legislature. The
masses of the people wanted their car
licenses cut in half. Why was it n-ot
done? Answer, "ring rule." How
long will the free-born, blood-bought
AVnerican citizen stand for "ring
rule?" Now this thing will have to
be changed. If the ballot can not
change it, something else will, I hope.
An honest man has no showing in
politics today, if he is not a favorite
of the "ring." "What does honesty
and unrightness count for today with
"ring rule?" Nothing. How lorvg ?

Lingering after having
made his purchase, he noticed
that the clerk put those he had so
positively rejected in a separate box.
"We have orders to keep such ties
apart from the others," the clerk explained.
"That is, after they have
