Travailed over to Columbia last
Saturday night to watch the Cups
itkht It out with Gaffney under the
lights of Melton /leld. Don't aell that
Columbia outfit under the margin.
Bulldogs, 'cause they're going to make
U plenty tuff with a capital T? for
you to get a shot at the atale title
Sixty mluutes of (potball and ouly atx
poiuta acored meana a real scrap,
which la Juat whut it wua, Walling,
Owinga, Pappas and I^eltner all work
ed beautifully in the baokfieUl for the
Caps?and that line of theira put up
a defenae that would have been the dolight
iff any coach. Walling to Pup
pus 6r Owinga or I^eJtner? take your
choice?clicked for eighty per cent of
their puss atteinpta-?which is plenty
good reception.
The drug store quurterbtuka are
wearing long faces already In anticipation
of the Columbia game?seems
that the Bulldogs haven't run Into as
tuff competition as have the Caps so
far this season. With the possible exception
of Charleston, they're propably
right, but any outfit that can run
up 248 points to 19 for their opponents
belongs at the head of the double
A class In any league. This column
looks for the Camden eleven to come
out of next Friday's battle on the
cheering end of a 13 to t> score?If
they play the brand of ball of which
they're capable, and we think they
can do It. So, weather and the officials
permitting, the Bulldogs will
have a clean slate when the Armistice
day tussle Is over.
The Caps had the best team lu
that Gaffney game, but not by the
six points Indicated on the scoreboard?Pappas
roamed out of the
pasture on that dash for the only
score of the game, which was only
one instance of the swell game played
by the officials. Gaffney perked up
in the waning minutes of the contest,
but a penalty from out of nowhere
clipped fifteen precious yards off the
books and that Just about tells the
story.
? *
According to Harlan Edwards of the
State: "Statistics prove that Columbia
outplayed the lighter Gaffney team
but?if Pappas didn't step out of
bounds after catching the pass which
was responsible for Columbia's winning
touchdown, then the sidelines
moved. The officiating was mediocre,
to say the very least."
Perhaps we're getting a little ahead
of the schedule chattering about the
Camden-Columbia game before the
local lads have disposed of Newberry
?by our way of thinking, nothing
short of an earthquake can keep the
Bulldogs under the thirty point mark
tonight. And that?is that!
The greatest October grid drive In
football htstory saw only one major
upset when Minnesota's mighty Gophers
were knocked off the unbeaten
list, and left virtually all other topranking
teams in the chase for the
mythical crown. Carolina's Gamecocks
had their share of the spotlight
when they brushed Villa Nova's
eleven off the unbeaten-untied slate
not by way of robbing the Gamecocks
of any glory in their big moment, but
the easterners were definitely out of
the national picture a^ week ago as a
result of their poor showing against
a weak Detroit team. Meawhtle Santa
Clara, Dartmouth, Notre Dame, Duke,
Pittsburg, TCTT Arid " several others
sail on. Tennessee, with their stinging
win over LSU last week?after ha\ing
run over Alabama the week before
have definitely put their name in the
bright lights with a bowl tilt in the
offing. The Southern conference race
was probably decided last week when
Duke blanked the Tar Heels?and so
it goes!
Evidently Interest In Columbia is
riding Just about as high aa here in
Camden. From Monday's Record
comes the following: "A discussion^
football among a group of Columbians
thla morning turned to the November
11 Camden-Columbia high game, which
begins to look like the high-spot of
the Caps' season?one of the group remarked
that he thought Columbia
would have no trouble winning
"Dodn't," cautioned another of the
group, who had Just returned from
Camden, "air that opinion In Camden
if you happen to go over that way.
They'll tar and feather you if
even get the Idea you THINK that.

Forest Service
Publishes Bulletin
The State Forest service has just
published a booklet entitled, "The
Cutting and Selling of Pulpwood."
State Forester, H. A. Smith said 11
should be secured by everyone cutting
or selling pulpwood In order to market
this product without causing serious
fo.rest deterioration.
The booklet points out the opportunities
offered landowners to actually
Improve their woodlands by Judicious
pulpwood cutting. It also points
out the desirability of Investigating
pole, piling, naval stores and pulpwood
markets before cutting or selling
timber.
It stresses the need for Are pro-,
tection, close spacing to Insure natur-j
al pruning, the waste of timber caused
by the high cutting of stumps, the
need for planting open areas and the
desirability of marking trees to be cut
or sold. Methods of estimating timber
and calculating timber volumes
are given as well as typical freight
rates for pulpwood and also condensed
wood specifications set up by the
pulp mills purchasing pulpwood In
South Carolina.
Much stress Is laid on the need to
always leave a good number of trees
on the land to assure another generation
of small trees and sufficient big!
trees to provide for subsequent growth
and cutting. A sample pulpwood timber
sale agreement is given as a guide
for the use of landowners and their
legal advisors. It explains technical
terms. At the end is a list of augges-i
tions embodying the salient thfogs to!
bear in mind when cutting or selling
pulpwood and owners are advised to
secure the advice of'the District^ oresters
at Spartanburg, Caipden, Florence,
Walter born and Aiken, or thetr^
county agent before cuting or selling
pulpwood.
* Assistant State Forester C. H.
Schaeffer of the State Forest service

the U. S. Forest Service end the Extension
Foreeter assisted in reviewing
It. Interested persons may secure
copies by writing the 8tate Forest
Service, Columbia, the District
| Foresters at their headquarters, the
I Extension Foreeter, Clemson, 8. C.,
or the county agents. It is sent free
as long as the supply lasts.

Grace Church Is
Edifice Of Beauty
< i
Winter visitors affiliated with the ]
IOplBcopai church in Camden will be i
gratified at the changes that have i
been made in the historic odtfice at l
the corner of Lyttleton and l>aurens
streets during the summer. i
During the past two years, or since
the appearance in Camden of Dr ,
Maurice Clarke as rector, many lm
provements have been made in the
church property, notable among them
being a new fire proof roof over the
church, two new memorial windows,
new and beautiful lights, new choir
stalls and screens and new kneeling
benches in the pews.
One' of the most outstanding changes
to the eye was the raising of the
three windows at the back of the altar,
this -change adding much to the
beaifty of the sanctuary. The Interior
of the church was entirely renovated
and repainted, and today, Orace church
is outstanding in its -beauty and equipment
In the ushering in of the winter
eason Dr. Clarke has arranged to have
November as a month of spiritual revival
and a renewal of church Interest.
Each member is challenged to make
it a month of personal service and
witness. One of its objectives is "every
member in Church every Sunday
throughout the month."
A special program has been worked
put for each Sunday and this includes
both the theme for the sermon as well
I '
a a the hymns end anthems by the
choir.
Next Sunday there will he * great
corporate communion of the pariah
when It Is hoped that many former
members will be present to make it
a home-coming Sunday. The theme
of the service will be "Reconciliation
and Reunion". The theme tor the aeo*
ond Sunday will he "Repentance";
for the third Sunday, "Thanksgiving".
There will be a special serrlce on
Thanksgiving Day, details to he announced
later. On the last Sunday of
the month the theme will he"Rededl>?
cation". Full programs will be pub- ?
lisbed each week. ..

The Fords Tell Their PI ans
for 1939
IF Wii KNBW anything better we could do for
the country than make good motor cars, we
would do it.
By eyery one doing his best in the job he
thinks most useful, this country is going to regain
its momentum. We have tried to do our best in
our job.
When business was suddenly halted in its recovery
more than a year ago, we determined that?we
should keep going anyway, if not at full-volume
motor car production, then at getting ready for
greater motor car values that would help future
production.
EXPANDING FOR THE FUTURE
We began to build 34 million dollars* worth of
new plants and equipment. We felt that if we
could not employ all our men building motor cars,
we would employ as many as we could building
better productipn facilities. ? ^
We were told, of course, that this was no time
for expansion, that a wiser business policy would
be to "hold everything"?which means, stop
everything. But no one ever got anywhere
standing still.
Besides, we are not defeatists. We do not believe
this country has seen its best days. We believe this
country is yet in the infancy of its growth. We believe
that every atom of faith invested in our
Country and our People will be amply justified by
the future. We believe America is just beginning.
Never yet have our People seen real Prosperity.
Never yet have we seen adequate Production.
But we shall see it! That is the assurance in
which we have built.
Business is not just coming back. It will have
to be brought back. That is now becoming well
understood in this country; for that reason 1939
will be a co-operative year. Manufacturers, sellers
and buyers will co-operate to bring back the business
that is waiting to be brought back.
This construction program is almost completed.
It has increased activity and payrolls in a number
of related industries. It has given us better facilities
for building better cars and trucks, and
eventually our new tractor which is being perfected.
THIS MEANS MORE VALUE
The current program ha9 provided a new tire
plant, which will turn out a part of our tire requirements
... a new tool and die plant that will help
us cut the cost of dies . . . and a steel-press plant
that will enable us to make more of our own automobile
bodies. These are in addition to the plants
we already had for producing glass, iron, steel,
plastics, and many other things.
We don't supply all our own needs, of course,
and never expect to. The Ford engine is one thing
that no one's hand touches but ours. Of nearly
everything else we use we build some quantity
ourselves, to find, if possible, better and more '
economical ways of doing it. The experience
and knowledge we gain are freely shared with our
suppliers, and with other industries.
We take no profit on anything we make for
ourselves and sell to ourselves. Every operation,
from the Ford ships which first bring iron ore to
the Rouge, is figured at accurate cost. The only
profit is on the finished result ? the car or truck
as it comes off the line. Some years, there is no
profit for us. But we see to it that our customers
always profit. A basic article of our business creed
is that no sale is economically constructive unless it
profits the buyer as much as or more than the seller.
Our new plants have helped us build more
value into all our cars for 1939. That means
more profit on the purchase to the purchaser.
We have not cut quality to reduce costs.
We simply will not build anything inferior.
NEW TESTING EQUIPMENT
While we were putting up new plants to produce
cars, we constructed new equipment to test them.
The first weather tunnel of its kind ever built for
automobile research went into operation at our
laboratories this year.
It makes any kind of weather to order. The
weather it delivers every day would take months
to find in Nature. Our cars are weather-tested to
give you good service in any climate anywhere.
In other tests, every part of the car is punished
unmercifully. Then our engineers tear it
down to see if they can find abnormal wear or
any sign of weakness.
The money we spend on tests saves you money
on repairs. And your family car is safer and more
dependable when we put it in your hands.
THE NEW CARS
/
We have two new Ford cars for 1939?better cars
and better looking?but we also have an entirely
new car.
It's called the Mercury 8. It fits into our line
between the De Luxe Ford and the LincolnZephyr.
It is larger than the Ford, with ll6*inch
wheelbase, hydraulic brakes, and a new 95-horse- a'
power V- type 8-cylinder engine.
We know that our 1 $39 cars are cars of good
quality. We think they're fine values in their
price classes.
With new cars, new plants, new equipment, the
whole Ford organization is geared to go forward,
