The Jefferson county fishermen have Just dedicated their new fish hatchery near Birmingham, and the occasion was of sufficient Importance to attract the United States Commissioner of Fisheries Frank T Bell from Washington, I. T. Qulnn, the state commissioner of conservation, and two thousand other persons, all Interested In the undertaking. Three years ago. so the newspaper article tells, the group started work lag on the project, and the last six) months have been the hardest, but the hatchery has been built arid one dream has come true at least. With the WUA aid the sportsmen chapter hat completed the hatchery and hat the dlttioction of being one of the | lew privately owned hatcheries whose entire output will go into the public streams (They claimed over there that it wat the "only" hatchery to using itt output, but we canuot forget the line work of I>illon county in good old Soath Carolina). The Jefferson county organization claims a membership of about 1,800 and according jo pictures in the Jllrrningham papers and in the state's conservation magazine, most of them attended the dedication ceremonies and barbecue. It is heralded that this is only the beginning ot an elaborate program for restocking Alabama's waters. This is a parallel ease with Soath Carolina, for we build hatcheries and replenish our streams by artificial propagation, and have to do an extra good Job of it, for we don't have a closed seasou to permit our fish to spawn and hatch In their natural environment unmolested. Alabama like South Carolina! has no closed season, but does havej a size and bag limit on their game fish. May the lists of conservation minded fishermen continue to Increase, and their Interest never lag. for they j are getting results, all over the na tioti. Including South Carolina.

' Spend Your Money In Camden Tne ..'ebtciu Auto Associate Store, home owned and operated by W. R. Bowden. believes In spending its money at home where It it made, and believes that If everyone would do this we would have a bigger and better Camden. _ In a recent survey they made of the town they found that merchandise can be bought Just as cheap in Camden as some place else. It has been found that some of the business men of Camden who depend on the people of Camden for their business success and progress, have repeatedly gone to some larger place to buy their own personal necessities. If they do not patronize their own people, how then can they expect their people to patronize them? If they would only stop and think where their living is made and how they are enabled to stay in business, we are sure that they would soon give their local merchants more consideration when they buy. However, we realize that every thing one might want or need can not be bought in Camden, but, at the same time, if we would spend our money in Camden, it would not be long before It would make possible for us to fulfill our every need right here at home. Higher freight rates on shipments from the South Into the North than rates on similar shipments from the North Into the South operate as a protective tariff in favor of the North and against the South. A 100 percenter endorses the administration's failure to do anything\to remove this discrimination against the solid Democratic South. The South is more interested in a Fair Deal than in a New Deal that stands for a differential against the South in relief allotments, wages and hours and freight rates.?Sumter Item. a II amm ? i , tameaaemmu u i no I DOLLAR DOLLAR I I FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, JULY 29 AND 30 I I Come in end tee the many item* of value your dollar III I. ? ? tt - ? - t.- - a . * * ? ?w * mm/ a wa /mm< ??ib MB /uav ?a ?O trv Wl IHCIII i Two pound* of John*on Floor Wax.
