The Kvo of Good Tiroes" "We are on the eve of good limes, nod advertising hastens their coming!" " - . The undersigned believes in the truth of this statement, even more firmly than when he wrote it some time ago; . . -j ^ For instance, irij The Chronicle for No^mber 3, The Home Furnishing Company ran an excellent advertise/ merit of thOir Sellers Kitchen Cabinet, As a result they sold every one they had on hand and 12 metre besides; a solid carload in all! ' Mr. Gus Iieleos, when asked about the response to his announcement, gave the above figures and added: "Besides those sold to residents of Camden, we made sales.to people in Lancaster, Wjnnsboro, Kershaw, Itidgewuy and other places. We're doing much more business than last year; in fact from August to the present time our business is double that of last year." Business is what we make it; let's make it good! Is there something more to education, real education, than the imparting of information, tife development of the mind? Many people believe that fheroct<| and that this other purpose of educa- j tion?the formation and strengthen- J ing of character?is the chief aim and ' the essential foundation of any sound educational system. Here, for instance, is what the Minister of Education of England, Lord Irwin, &ays: "Every .tripling college, in my judgment, needs a religious background if it is to do its work; for more is it realized that religion is the essence1 and the condition of character. "In these days I do not hesitate to j assert my conviction that no system j of State education can afford to ignore this vital element. "If it is true that we want characi i ? <irrr????mmm tor-training, and if you waflt 'your character-training to be real, and if it is true, as 1 believe, that that reality can only come from religion, then formal religious instruction is not sufficient, and you need the intluence that is only communicated by the example of personal conviction' and personal enthusiasm." The necessity of religion in education was recognized by the founders of the United States of America. It is equally necessary for all the states of the world. * ' If any writer could truly describe this Wednesday* morning's sunrise, not as the daily common-place which too often it seems to our dulled senses, but as it really was?that glowing orb rising above the treetops, that "pure fire" sending its lifegiviog warmth through unimaginable space to light , man on his way, to give .him food, to give him cheer and ! joy,?what a "reporter" he would be! I In the same way, if one could only I toll the story of the radio, could put t into adequate words the wonders of j just one day's program. For instance, the other evening we | sat in our library here in Camden hmd by the turn of a dial, were inPstantly transported?as far as lieari ing was concerned?to the new stu!dios of the National Broadcasting Company, in Radio City in the heart of New York, 700 miles away! There we listened to talks by0 M. II. Aylesworth, head of the NBC.; John B. Kennedy, editor of "Colliers" who acted as master of ceremonies, and others?we heard Gen. Unrboard and David Snrn^ff talk with each other across the .'1,000 sea miles of the . Atlantic ocean, as though tiny wore conversing in the library where we were seated, listening .... We heard John McCormack sing?(and that alone is enough to make an evening memorable) ? we listened to the golden voice of Rosa Ponselle, we h aid "Amos and Andy" in one of Calls on Nation To Return Thanks Warm Springs, Ga.i Nov 21.?Fres ident Roosevelt today isaued hia prolamation naming Thursday, November 30, for the regular observance of Thanksgiving Day. In this haven where he won back his own health from an attack of infantile paralysis, Mr. Roosevelt wrote out his Thanksgiving Day proclamation. He cast aside the usual "wherdas," of past proclamations to ask "may we on that day in oui churches and in our homes give humble thanks for the blessings bestowed upon us during the past year by Almighty God." His proclamation, handed out by a secretary, Stephen T Karlv, on typewritten sheets says: "By the President of the United States of America -A Proclamation. -1, Franklin D. Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, do set aside and appoint Thursday, the thirtieth day of November, 1033, to be a day of thanksgiving for all our people. |lny we on that dtyy in our, churches and in our homes give humble thanks for the blessings bestowed upon us during .the year past by Almighty God. May we recall the courage of those who settled a wilderness, the vision of those who founded .the nation, the steadfastness of those who in every succeeding generation have fought to keep pure the ideal of equality of opportunity am hold clear thfr goal of mutual help in time of prosperity as in time ot adversity. o "May we. ask guidance in more surely learning the ancient truth th'at greed and selfishness and striving foi undue riches can never bring lasting happiness or good to the individual or' to his neighbors. May we be grateful for the passing of dark days; for the new spirit of dependence on one another; for the closer unity of all parts of our wide land; for the greater friendship between employers and those who toil; for a clearer knowledge by all nations that we seek no conquests and ask only honorable engagements by all peoples to respect the lands and rights of their neighbors; for the brighter day to which we can look through the help of God in a more unselfish striving for the common bettering of mankind. "In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the sea of the United States U? be afTixed.(Signed) Franklin D. Roosevelt. Mayor of Cheraw Improving Cheraw, Nov. 22.-Mayor R. A.

He will be confined to the hospital several weeks longer. _ ? their characteristic discussions. Will i Rogers joined in the entertainment, speaking from far-off Holly-wood, and] later that same evening, a radio j>ro-, Kram was broadcast to Admiral Byrd ( and his men on their ship down in! the icv wastes cf the Antarctic. Truly, the world is full of wonders, if we will but see and hear them.

' o I ? ? Local Colored Team j Wins Over Charlotte The following write-up of Mother ! Academy's football team winning \ from the colored team from Second | Ward, Charlotte, N.
