\ * ? a
Will Roger*
I he variety of the comments upon
Will Rogers heard here, us everywhere,
on tlu* ilay he died tragically
lu the Arctic, allowed as many different
viewpoint# of the man. and the
variety of his accomplishments.
Some knew him aa their favorite
movie actor. More viewed him aa
the dally commentator upon current
eventa who waa the moat Inciaive.
the moat cheerful, and the moat aenalhie
of auy In theae troubloua timea.
A few who had read all hla louder
commentaries of national and world
affaire called him oue of the greatest
men. with one of the beat trained
braina, in America In this generation.
Theae laat were more comprehenslve
In their remarka. and nearer what
the future will conaider Will Rogers
to be. Really, and moat important,
he waa a deep and keen phlloaopher
who expressed himself and hla philosophy
in humor, inatead of dry, lurge
tomes full of big words.
There have been many philoaophers,
and about us many humorists, In this
old world, from the old Greeks to
this era. Hut there huve been only
throe men who were great phllosoph
era and excellent humorists at the
same time. They were Mark Twain,
already of world wide Immortality,
George Fitch, who died too soon, in
the beginning of a great career, uml
Will Rogers who hud completed the
achievement he accomplished from a
start as a hoy on u cow pony In Oklahoma.
Not the least of what Will Rogers
taught the world Is, that one may he
devastating against shams and politicians.
without wounding the recipient
of the sharpest shafts. That cheerful
humor, In the hands of a master,
changes public opinion more than a
hundred campaign speeches, or thousands
of columns of editorializing. That
a philosopher who uses real humor
as a meaus may bo a patriot doing
more good for his country, than a
general on the battlefield.
The versatility of the man astonishes
to amazement. A star in vaudeville,
also a really great statesman,
recognized as such In the top ranks
of the American government, the moat
popular motion picture actor of his
time, incidentally, ho was also the
best 'after dinner speaker, and attracted
more people to the radio programs,
than did any other man of the last
decade.
But greatest of all, Is the fact that
the American people from the White
House to the York county farmer,
merchant, clerk, or society woman, all
loved him as a personal friend to
each ?f them. That fact, carved in
stone, should be the epitaph over his
grave.?Yorkville Enquirer.
Death Of An Infant
Friends in Camden will regret to
learn of the death of Henry Lewis
Brothers, 3rd, nine months old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Henry L. Brothers,
Jr., which occurred at Brevard, N. C?
Saturday last and the little body waB
carried to Richmond, Va? on Monday
for burial. Mr. and Mrs. Brothers
came here from Richmond, Va., where
Mr. Brothers is a traveling salesman
for North and South Carolina with
headquarters in Camden. They reside
on North Fair street and were
on a visit to relatives in Brevard
when death claimed their baby.

o'clock. Funeral services were conducted

his widow who was Miss Carrie
Owens, of Westville, and three stepsous:

Asks A Correction
In the last Issue of The Chronicle
we reproduced a news item from the
Chester Reporter relative to the death
of Andrew Dibble, 85-year-old colored
man of that city, In which It stated
Dibble was a former citizen and a
former postmaster at Camden.
R. Dennis Dibble, a brother of Andrew
Dibble, called at The Chronicle
office Saturday and asked us to please
correct the statement as to the postmastership
at Camden, that the Chester
paper must undoubtedly have been
misinformed. He tells us that In early
life his brother was a carpenter,
not muchly Interested In politics, but
did serve for a while as postmaster
at Bennettsville when that postofflce
was rated as a fourth'class office, the
town at that time being a mere village.
This makes the fourth of the
Dibble brothers to die In recent years
and Dennis Dibble is the last survivor
of a family of nine brothers.
