May we all get in behind this worthy movement. The challenge is for all the church members of Camden. Hut this special appeal is being made for our own people?the members of the Lyttleton Street Methodist church. We give several reasons why all the Methodist should cooperate: Because It Is right, und God so commands, because it is u call coming from all the religious forces of our church, because the church and the pastor needs the inspiration and encourugement this movement will bring, because it will give Camden a higher rutlng than it now possesses, because it will mean t a blessing to each individual who gets in line, God will honor or bless the town and church that honors Him, because, there is no honest reason [ any one can give, barring sickness, that would keep them from all going to church once and twice if possible during the month of June. We mean all this for our Men's I Bible class. I^et the men begin the . good work by coming to the class on the first Sunday in June, this means . next Sunday.?C. F. Wimberly, Pastor.

M. Biuesteln Dead Writing very recently to Mrs. D. R. Fletcher, hor former friend and neighbor during.her residence in Kershaw, Mrs. M. Biuesteln, now residing in Charleston, communicated to Mrs. Fletcher the sad intelligence of the death of her husband, Moses BlueBtein, a former merchant In Kershaw for a number of years. In her letter Mrs. Biuesteln stated that when they left Kershaw for Charleston several years ago that It was on account-of the condition of Mr Bluestein's health and for medical treatment in that city. He went to St. Louis, Mo., afterward to undergo an operation, which gave him relief for a time and he returned to Char leston, where he again grew worse and died in a hospital in that city March 193.>, of a heart affection at the age of 58 years. Mr. Blue8tein was born in Russia and came to America as a young child, living in Charleston until he came to Kershaw to engage in busi ti'ss. The death of a brother, Joseph Biuesteln, a few weeks before his own demise is thought to have contributed toward hastening his own death. He and Mrs. Biuesteln made numerous friends during their residence in Kershaw, who are grieved to learn of the death of Mr. Biuesteln and sympathize deeply with Mrs. Bluestein in her bereavement. To Have Ladies Night The Camden Masonic Club, formerly the Camden Shrine Club, will hold their annual ladies night at The Pines. Tuesday, June 11th.

Davidson, secretary. The membership of the club la made up of some of the leading men in the professional and business life of the city. The Rotary Club, heretofore the only service club In the city, has for several years been a most valuable asset to the community. For some time the need of another service club in Camden has been felt and these two organizations, composed as they arc of Camden's highest, best and most unselfish and progressive citizenship. - will be able to accomplish much for the continued growth and upbuilding of the city and county. Rotary Club Notes An interesting talk was made to the Camden Rotary Club at its Thursday's meeting by Don McAlister. Coach of the University of South Car[olina football team.

There ban been considerable unfavorable criticism of the Highway Department of South Carolina for showing Lake Murray with ho much prominence on maps Issued by their department and absolutely ignoring the large lakes neur Camden, (Ireut Falls, Itock Hill and Fort Mill. The Wateree dam, eight miles above. Camden creates a lake over twehty flve miles long, and very wide at many points. This dam backs water right up to the Rocky Creek Dam, South of Ureal Falls. , The ltock Creek Dam backs i water to the Great Falls dam and that dam backs water to Nltrolee. The Nit roleo dam backs water above Lancaster. The dam between Itock Hill i and Fort Mill, on the same river, bucks water above the Charlotte-Gustonia highway. In other words, these dams form utmost one continuous lake from near Camden to Gastonia, N. C. The Wateree Lake, eight miles above Camden is perhaps one-third or one-half as large as Lake Murray, and the citizens of this section feel that it should be shown on South Carolina Highway und other maps. TluyCjti'/.ens of this section feel that I.akV* Murray should show on all lnups^ but at the same time, do not feel that there Is any Justice In leaving off the large Wateree LukA; from any map, The same applies to the large lakes near Greut Falls. Camden was recently canvassed by a man selling a modern map of South j Carolina. Lake Murray registered on the map like an inland ocean, but the | large lake above Camden did not show I at all. The salesman had never heard | or the big Wateree Lake. It Is needless to say that he did no business in this section. I The large Wateree Lake is quite a fishing ground for citizens of Camden, Kidgeway, Winnsboro, Chester, Great Falls, Lancaster and Kershaw. Quite a number, of motor boats are used on this lake, and eventually summer homes or shacks are to be erected on the high hills overlooking the lake, for it is much cooler there thun In the towns nearby. Route No. 97 from Camden to Great Falls parallels thi.s lake, making It possible to spend the afternoon there without much traveling, and on a paved road. A good dirt road parallels the lake on the Western side. It is likely that the citizens of this section will request that these large lakes be shown on futuro maps issued by the South Carolina Highway Department. Mrs. Moseley Dies j After Long Illness Mrs. Lillian Roberts Moseley, wife of C. M. Moseley, died at the Camden hospital on Monday, after a long illness. Mrs. Moseley was born in Cainden about forty-five years ago, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Roberts. She was married | September 14, 1913, and has made her home at Westvllle. Surviving relatives are her husband and ono son and one daughter, Carlisle Moseley and Ethel Moseley. Also surviving are the following sisters i and brothers: Mrs. Benton Sheorn. Miss Evelyn Roberts, of Camden; Mrs. F. M. Clements, W. C. Roberts, Mrs. Everette Pearce, Columbia; Mrs. H. It. Corley, Lexington; Mrs. A. C. Langley, Shelby, N. ., and Mrs. J. J. Brown, of Westvllle. Funeral services were h'eld from Hickory Heft.T Hdptist church, near Westville, Tuesday afternoon, at 4 o'clock. William Alexander Dead William Alexander, aged 45, member of an old Kershaw county negro family, <lled Saturday and was burled Sunday at Zlon Hill church, north of Camden. Alexander was ono of a family of fourteen children born and roared on the Lorick place. He is survived by nine children. Also sui*viving are seven sisters, most of whom reside in the north. Three brothers survive?James Alexander, of Camden. Jessie Alexander, of Philadelphia and Plnckney Alexander, of Sutnmltt, Georgia.

Alabama's legislature is moving toward the easy and quick divorce law*, -so as to great divorces within 90 days attar filing suits. --"v - Supreme Court Knocks Out NRA Washington, May 27.-?By a unanliiiouh decision, in contrast to some llvo-to four decisions on other New Ileal features, the NHA codes were wiped out today by the supremo court which ruled unconstitutional the section of the industrial recovery act under which conaress delegated to tho President authority to utake codes. It held this authority hud not been sufficiently limited, or dellned and utso ruled that, where transgressions have merely uu Indirect effect on interstate commerce control rests with the states. The court also held Invalid provisions of the codes fixing minimum wages and maximum hours of labor, an action it said hud been based on the theory thut wuges and hours of lubor affect interstate commerce. The court declared such power would givo tho federal government suhstuntiaf^ontrol over all activities. This NltA decision was considered a complete defeat for NRA, debate about the extension of which has been occupying congress. Also unanimously, the supreme court held the Frar.ler-I^'inke uct granting a live year moratorium for paying otT farm mortgages and affecting billions of dollars indebtedness unconstitutional. In a decision read by associate Justice Hrnndeis it ruled on u case brought by tho Jxiuisvillo Joint Stock I Land Hunk against Willinm W. Uudford, Sr. Justice Hrandeis is considered about the most liberal of the supremo court bench. The law provided for a moratorium if attempts to scale a farmer's debt down to a (Igure he could pay failed. The property could not he foreclosed during the five years If the owner paid a reasonable rental. Tho net also enabled the farmer to obtain full title to his property by payment of the appraised value regardless of tho amount stipulated in the mortgage at the end of the flvo year period. Beautiful Crops In Lee And Sumter Taking advantage of the invitation Issued to tho citizens of South Carolina by H. C. Bland, of Sumter, to visit hlB "Swan Gardens," a Chronicle man with a party of friends made a trip there Tuesday afternoon. Not carir.g particularly about rich lng over the usual route to Sumter, we took the old Black Rlvor road toward Bishopvllle and came Into Blshopvllle-Sumter highway at a point 17 miles from Sumter. Like Mr. Trotter suggested some weeks ago, this Is a nice drive for an afternoon, carrying one through some of the finest farming sections in this state. It also carries one by several handsome oldstyle farm residences. Near. Rose Hill plantation, or what Is now tho Ashwood Community Project, we saw tho largest field of oats In one body that wo had ovor looked upon. Just n few miles before reaching this field we witnessed a lone workman cutting his grain with an old-fashioned cradle. . Quite a contrust when we stopped to witness a modern combine cutting, thresh- ! lng and sacking this large field of oats. It took Beyen men to oporuto tho combine. Tho youngest of the party had never seen a grain cradle at work?and none of the party hiul ever seen a modern combine. Only the heads of the grain are cut by tho combine, leaving tho stubble to bo plowed undor. All throughout this section of Coo and Sumter counties farm owners have gone In strong for grain and from all indications they will harvest bountiful crops. In this connection It is said that growers of produce such as cnbbago and tho like had a most profitable season In the coastal sections, Farmers seem to havo at last gotten away from tho all-cotton Idea. The Ashwood Community Project is not far enough advanced %as yet for one to be able to tell much about it. but. work is going on rapidly. The visit to tho Swan Lake Gardens was a most delightful on \ Mr. Bland has transformed an unsightly swamp Into a most beautiful flower garden and we were told that thousands visited the place on Sundav lnst. He deserves the thanks of the pooplo of the state for his openhenrt- dness in opening to visitors. " > - - Harri8-Dymock Mrs. Marian F. Harris and Charles,, O.
