LOCAL BOTTLER GIVE8 "TIP"
ON HOW TO WIN A CA8H PRIZE
"Local residents who enter contests
would have a much better
TfiTOCo of wtnning the big prize money
If they would observe one simple
rule," Bald Mr. Morrow of the Koyal
Crown Bottling Company, of Sumter.
S. C\, today.
"Originality and sincerity are the
things that Impress the contest
Judges," continued Mr. Morrow. "For
example, In the Royal Crown Cola
contest, which has been paying $2,000
per week prize money since March
11," Bald Mr. Morrow, "I am told by
the contest Judges, Reuben H. Donnelley
Corporation, of New York, that
the big prizes have been consistently
won by simple, straightforward statements
from Just plain ordinary people
who mako no pretense of being
writers."
"The Judges particularly warn
against the use of Ideas and catch
phrases supplied by tipsters who sell
the same idea to all comers, with the
result that the same Idea of phrase
appears in a large number of entries.
"Such entries," said Mr. Morrow,
"are easily recognized by the judges
as lacking originality."
Continued Mr. Morrow, "originality
is an Important consideration in the
Royal Crown Contest, and many good
entries in this contest have failed to
win because the contestant had not
carefully read the rules relating to
originality and sincerity in this contest.
I strongly suggest that any resident
of Camden and vicinity who intends
entering the contest this summer,
should be sure to get from his

THAT ONE-SIDED BACON
If our deafness Is not profound
and cataracts not entirely ripe, the
burden of the songs we hear and
the papers we read, about candidates
running for high offices, Is
"fetching home the bacon." Though
"Uncle Sam,' as we know, Is a
gouging and grasping old pauper,
we would like to henr from these
hungry office seekers who and how
will this "bacon" get back to Washington.
It Is possible that there Is
no higher ground for going to Washington
than to claw more than the
other fellows out of the grab-bag,
with no thought of how It will be
replaced ?
That "Uncle Sammle" must somehow
get back his "bacon", goes
without saying. From whom? Not
from polltlcans who draw huge taxexempt
stipends. That "bacon" will
finally be paid for by still Increasing
taxation and repudiation. Isn't
It a sorry spectacle that statesmanship
can rlso no higher than bugling
tho Bordld time of "bringing
home the bacon"? ?Calhoun Times

The first thing we noticed In aj>
proaching the scene of Newberry b
great field day and sportsmen's rally
wan the abaence of dust on .the clay
road even though the day was fair
and hot. The sprinkler wagon had
made several trips over the course
and made more.
This was not so important other
than it was an index as to what was
to follow Harry Hedgepath and Sam
Williams had thought of everything
and done everything?Including hard
work?to make the day successful. , ,
The road was watered to keep down
dust, the parking areas were roped
off, the special areas were wired, the
weeds were cut, the barbecue tables
and kitchen were fenced off, the loud
speaking system was working to keep
the crowds informed and moving.
They did what was necessary to get
a crowd and did what was needed to
keep the men and women entertained.
It is hard to say how many folks
came to the meet. It Is estimated
that at the time Ken Beegle gave his
expert shooting exhibition, there were
a couple of thousand persons there
Barbecue dinner was served to a
steady crowd from twelve o'clock until
well after two. ,
The day before the meet Harry rode
all over Newberry county stopping at
every community and "ballyhooed'
the event, using sound truck with
LUMBERJACK PAV8 WITH .LIFE
FOR KILLING CHARLES ROSS
Chicugo, July 14.?John Henry I
Seadlund paid with his life today
for the crime of kidnaping.
The 27-year-old lumberjack, abductor
of Charles S. Ross and
killer of the man who helped him
commit the crime, was electrocuted
at 12:08 a. m. (Central Standard
Time) In the Cook county Jail.
Shaved and masked, Seadlund
walked tensly Into the execution
chamber almost unaided. "You don't
have to hold my arms," he told the
guards on each side of him. "I can
get there alone." After seating himself
he made a visible effort to relax
and held his arms out for the
clamps.
He was the second man to be executed
under the Lindberg kidnap
law. The first was Arthur Gooch,
27. hanged at McAlester, Okia ,
June 19, 1936 for kidnaping two
peace officers at Paris, Texas.
MIUHIC.
I The scene of the gathering was the
'four-county fish hatchery, a couple of
miles south of Newberry, Just off the
Columbia road. The output of the
hatchery Is to be used chiefly for restocking
Lake Murray. The sponsoring
counties for the WPA project are
Newberry, Richland, Lexington and
Saluda. The sportsmen's chapter
worked hand In hand with the state
gume department In never letting interest
in the project die, and today
they are about to see the completion
of a beautiful little hatchery.
The day was successful; the crowd
attended; they were well fed and entertained.
As we said several weeks
ago. what one good chapter has done,
another good chapter can likewise
profit. It took hard work to accomplish
what Harry and Sam did, but any
chapter that will undertake a siinillar
gathering will get real kick out of Its
success.
Several members of surrounding
chapters went to Newberry. In the
crowd was Chris G. I>angley, president
of the Richland county chapter;
J. Roland Dean, president of the Spartanburg
chapter; Lonnie S. McMillian,
president of the Clinton group; Fuller
L. Reese, president of the Abbeville
unit; and l)r Lewis W. Perrln, secretary
of the Union chapter, and
State Secretary West Jacocks, of Columbia.
while attempting to avoid arrest.
Twenty-five witnesses saw Seadlund
die. Among them was Severin
E. Koop. a Crosby, Minn., undertaker
selected by Seadlund to carry
his body back to his home In
Ironton. Mi nn.
Seadlands last hours were spent
in a spirit of fatality. Those who
saw him said he expressed no regret,
voiced no bitterness. He fitfully
read the Bible and talked with
the jail chaplain. In his death cell,
an hour and a half before the execution
he partook of a light lunch.
Seadlund and James Atwood
Gray, his 19-year-old accomplice,
kidnapped Ross in northern Illinois
last Sept. 25 and took the 72-yearold
retired manufacturer and greet
lug cards to a hideout in Wisconsin's
north woods, near Sponser.
There Seadlund confessed to
agents of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, he killed Gray during
a quarrel. Ross was fatally injured
in the struggle, Seadlund said, so
he shot hirn too.
