Friday, December 15, lO.'l.'l PRA1SES CAMDEN The editor of this paper is in rej ceipt of the following letter from I Stanton' N. Lett, superintendent of jthe Johnston public schools, in which he has the following1 complimentary j words to say of Camden people and its football team. We are taking the ; liberty of publishing this letter and | we know that all Camden people will 'appreciate what Mr. Lott and the I citizens of Johnston think of us: "We the people of Johnston are so 1 deeply indebted to you good people I of Camden for the great day of last 1 I Friday that words cannot express our feelings. We have never been so cor- 1 dially received before. Of course the ball game bh& been a chief topic of ? conversation, but the main thought 1 of all has been "The people of Cam- : den are the most cordial of any we t have ever met." "That was the clean- 1 est team we have ever seeii," "Those ( wore the best sports I ever saw," and ' such remarks. In behalf of the team, j t the coach and the citizens of the town i we are truly grateful, and we ' have t to express our thanks to someone. t "We shall appreciate very much a I copy of your paper containing the < game." v : > Automobile production for the first e quarter of the 1 'J.'ii season was approximately 500,000 cars, an increase e of 2f> per cent over the same period of t last year. il s I* Holiday Season Gets Underway The 1DH3 Christmas season has been opened in Camden and patrons are getting the holiday spirit from' the gayly decorated stores and array of merchandise suggestive of the festive 'days. Merchants have purposely delayed the opening of the Christmas season in order to make the days urn til Deeember 2&ih short, snappy and full of the true ('hirstmas spirit. In many towns the season was opened more, than two weeks ago, and by (his time it has already begun to pall on the public, Camden merchants have gone to considerable expense this year to decorate their stores in a very attractive mannei\ Toylands are glistening and gleaming with new toys and other gifts which will make glad the heart of Santa Glaus as well as his thousands of littld friends in Kershaw county. A casual inquiry made during recent days reveals that there will be plenty Christmas merchandise for sale in Cathden during December. Some of it is being' unpacked, and a few of the stores already have s<jjne of it on display, feifts this year are to be of a useful nature, but there will be a large stock ef toys in Camden also. Toys are considered unnecessary and useless by many folks, but not by parents of little ones. Theso parents know thatx toys are just about us essential as something, to eaf. Several merchants, have expressed | the thought that there will be quite ^ a bit of clothing sold this year for L Christmas presents. hew, if any,| men would object to-a new suit of j clothes, a hat, a pair of shoes, or an necktie. The necktie idea, however,! is included with reservations in re- j gard to shades. , 1 The jewelry stores are already j making some sales of gifts which aiej of a more personal nature. Jewelry. | silver and other gilts to be lound in i jewelry stores are perhaps the most ; popular types of gifts among those ! who have reached or even passed the > right age for that sort of thing. Furniture men declare that they], discern a trend towards the idea of buying furniture for the home this year. The plan is for all members of the family to join in, and give ' one or two rooms a brand new suite V I ' apiece. v ; Radio and music dealers report in- j ^ creased interest in radios and mus- ' ical instruments. In these lines, it ^ has also been?mH-etf that not a few j > persons are planning to -follow out j the "gift far the whole family" idea.; J)rug stores are already putting iside some of their attractive Christ-; lias specialties for their customed*, tnd the Christmas idea is spreading o other tyj)es of stores and business j muses. It begins to look as if this , 'hri.-tmas is going to offer a I'tUcJ uore in the way of real business t .aii he past Christmas offered. ! Most of the stores will likely put in heir Christmas decorations soon, if j hey have not already done so. The n ightly lighted windows tilled w ith j 'hristmas merchandise will make j vindow shopping very attractive, this ; ear, and that should lead to in- j roased sales. I The man who hands over his pock- J tbook to his wife this year to do , he Christmas shopping for the fam- j |y will know that jf she buys the ( ame quantity that she bought iast , ear, there will be some money in the ; ocketbook when she returns it, proided it had the same amount in it s last year when she took it. If she pends as much as she did last year, he packages are going to be a whole >t heavier this year, for ( hristmas ; rices are going to be "right" in old j LKb'h I And with the federal government \ iding the needy and providing a riier income for . the average man.

Experts show it can be produced about ten dollars per ton cheaper than the Canadian spruce pulp paper. This will give an output for thousands of acres of Georgia pine that' has heretofore been neglected or wasted. Prof. Charles Herty, a Georgia chemist, has been working on the project for years, and has at hist been crowned with success in his- efforts. As might have been expected, considerable harsh criticism has been heaped upon Governor Rolph, of California, upon his non-action and remarks upon the lynching recently 6f the two kidnapers and murderers of young Hart. Hut there is not a juryman or citizen, be he native or foreigner, who would not have felt that the lynching was deserved and just had the murdered boy been their own child.
