Plan Suggested For i
Cotton Festival,
Camden business and professional
men have been Invited to attend a
mass meetly^ to bo held ul the Court
Tn"ft Friday, August 12. for the purpose
of formulating plana for a colton
festival to be held here the latter
part of September.
The plan originating with the Chain-.
ber of Commerce contemplates making
the festival an annual event, l'relunations
will he handled by a com
mlttHf of 'merchants to be named ut
the muss meeting
The suggestion of the commerce
body provides for a one day event,
although this may be changed to extend
the affair over a two or three
day period. Music by an outstanding
band of the state, show window ilia
plays of cotton products by tho two
big mills here, a statewide radio
broadcast of "the man on the Street",
a football game at the lighted stadium
and a cotton ball In the spacious
dining room of the Court Inn, are
some of the suggestions advanced.
11 in ni6?r [iimiuru iv uixo tuu ZZ
lection of a (ltieeu from young ladles
of surrounding communities as well
as . Camden, stunt events featuring
potato races for women, wheelbarrow
.races for men, awards to the fattest
couple, the tallest couple, the family
coming from the greatest distance,
the largest family, pet parade, scooter
race for boys and doll buggy race
for girls.
Several of the merchants and professional
men who have been approached
with the plan are enthusiastic
over It. Tho chamber of commerce
board of directors gave unanimous endorsement
at a meeting this week.
Form letters addressed to all of the
business and professional men of
Camden, outlining the plan and calling
attention to the masB meeting on
AUgust 12, were distributed this wet k,
Austin Sheheen. chairman of the
Business Men's bureau, who will president
the meeting, In an appeal Issued
Thursday, said:
"The Idea of a cotton festival is a
splendid one. Other cities in this
part of the country have their tobacco
festivals, azealea festivals and the
like and I believe if we ge back of
this idea with earnest and sincere cooperation.
we can start the cotton festival
event off In a big way and make
the people festival minded enough to
have the affair become an annual
event. I want to emphasize the need
of every merchant and professional
man in the city cooperating in this
^program. The meeting on Friday. August
12. is a vital one. If only a handful
turn out, the effort will be abandoned.
We feel there would be no use
In going ahead unless we can get an
almost one hundred per cent cooperation."
