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

of 2f> per cent over the same period of t

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

Nino daily papers in Georgia last
week printed a part or, all of their
issues upon paper made from Georgia
pine timber. 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. Humanity
is just the same in every boson!
when it comes to one's own heart ahd .
