The good old day? wera those when
vou knocked at the front door 8uuilav
afternoon'# to And out If the faiuIIy
was home. Now you simply look
In the garage.
Sow that Arturo *Oodoy has lasted
,he full 15 rounds against Joe I.outs
there are some wh<\ figure Art Is not
xo much South American Indian as
he is Finnish. ^ ^ ^ _ '
lH>or to door vendorri may he an annoyance
or a blessing, depending on
,he needs of the moment and the
mood one Is In. Residents of Mont,oat\
Colorado, decided a few years
ago they would rather go out and do
their shopping and an ordtance banning
door to door soliciting was pass(.U
The Colorado supreme court uphold
the validity of the ordinance on
the ground that cltlaens may aot
lectlvely to guarantee the privacy of
their homes just as they may Individually
obtain such privacy.
?
Down here in South Carolina the
tourt has held that Buch ordinances
are invalid.
?
And so we have to put up with an
Invasion of our homes. Pity the
housewives whose daily routines have
become punctuated with the frequent
knock at the door or the ringing of
the boll.
Home-building or other construction
is substantial evidence of progress
and development in any community. It
denotes the confidence and enterprise
of the citizenship In the locality. That
Camden will not be found lacking In
this respect is demonstrated by the
erection of many new residences, the
remodeling of business bouses and
homes and other construction work.
*?
Now for a few sport jottings. Chiefly
may we suggest to all sport fans
that he or she attend the basketball
game between the Camden and Rock
Hill high school teams hero tonight.
In particular is attention centered on
the game between the girls teams.
Several weeks back Rock Hill defeated
Camden by a lone point to put the
onlv black mark on the Camden, record
this season. While the Camden
maidens did not offer any alibi for the
- defeat, it was due entirely to .
weird officiating by a couple of college
gals. We are predicting a comfortable
margin of victory for Camden tonight.
The Camden Hunt is due a great
deal of praise for the program offered
at the hunter trials last week. Despite
a cold wind that , kept the temperature
down in the low 40's the en-i
thusiasm of the spectators was warm
and the performance of the hunters
brilliant. ?? 'u~r ^?.-...-J

Congratulations to the Virginians',
for the really high class horse show
offered Saturday at the J. North
Fletcher stables. The attendance was
below that of last year but this was
due to the weather. What the crowd
present lacked in numbers It made up
in enthusiasm.
PetltW DoroUiy"Tlrofton Perry, the
charming wife of Haggin Perry, of
Cobham, Virginia, with her mount,
Demopolls, .whs quite the whole show.
Mrs. Perry comes from British South
Africa, where her grandpappy Is some
big-wlg in the government-fin fact?
is boss of the territory.
? ? ...
Mrs. Perry confided to this department
that she has been riding but
three years. We agree with a lot of the
rallblrdB who know horses and horse
shows that Mrs. Perry has come a
long way in three years.

The little lady was on the verge of
having the Jitters when the judges
were considering the blue ribbon
placement in the lightweight hunters
i hiss. Demopolis had taken first
place in three classes but in order to
; tuiify for the championship hunters
lass, wuuiu have to score ine blue in 1
the lightweight group.
i History relates how Demopolis was
first iu the lightweight clnss and went
into the championship lineup to take
show honors.
V * t
Seen through the wlndshled last
week. Motorists ignoring the stop
signs at Lyttleton and DeKalb streets.
Cars parking in the line of traffic in
the block between Market and Broad
on DeKalb, tying up traffic and causiug
hurrying drivers to swing into
the left traffic lane and cause a greater
snarl. Why not a police officer in
that block to put a stop to this whistle-stop
practice of double-parking,
which is made doubly vexing by reason
of being on U. S. highway No. 1.
?
Speaking of civic patriotism?well,
listen to this. Several weeks ago two
Camden golfers were playing at the
Kirkwood oourBe. It was rather a cold
day and both athletes were bundled
in sweaters and leather coats. Along
came the Seaboard special and the
speed with which the golfers dofifed
their leather coats and sweaters and
paraded the fairways In shirt sleeves
as the passenger coaches slid by, was
really astounding.
m m 9
Now we know why Colonel Knight,
of Cool Springs, bellowed at us last
Friday, "take that overcoat and muffler
off Skipper!" The Seaboard cannon
ball was Just puffing around the
bend. ^

Coach Cyril Harrison of the polo
club is arranging for the appearance
of a number of high goal players from
Aiken to take part in an exhibition
game with Camden pololsts a week
from next Sunday. This should be a
peak event in polo circles this season.
A big crowd turned out for the
opening game of the Devlne cup series
last Sunday between the Town
and Country teams. Country won the
fracas 5 to 1, but the game was
tighter than the score Indicates. <

Highway Safety
Demands Cited
Columbia. 8. C? Fob. 2, 1940?There
aro !),129 points on the Btuto highway
ay?turn in South Caroling wore
sight distances are too aliorl far safe
driving in present day traffic, C. S.
Patrick, Secretary of the South Carolina
Automobile Aaaoclatiou, pointed
out In a statement hero today.
"The urgent need for safer highways
to reduce the toll of accidents
and fatulitlea on the roads of our state
demands that such haxards bo removed
before one dollar ot highway funds
is used for purposes other' than
roads," Patrick said lu opposition to
any proposals to divert highway reI
venues to general functions of govern,
moat.
"The figures were gathered by the
State-wide highway planning survey
and in addition this survey shows that
j there aro huudrods of bridges loo
narrow for safety under present conditions,"
the tfiotor club executive added.
A Mr. Patrick stated that recent re'
liable surveys based on information
gathered from the official records of
the state highway department, the report
of the comptroller general and
the South Carolina tax commission
show that automobile owners are the
most heavily tuxed of all South CaroI
lina citizens and added: "The motorI
ists of this state are enntled to the
safe highways for which they are
paying."
| Patrick said that those surveys show
that gasoline, which ho termed a neI
cessity is bearing a sales tax far more
' than double the sales tax Imposed on
1 many luxuries in this state and that
automobiles are paying large sums
In property taxes for general government.

SCHOOL HEADS ASKED TO
| WATCH AFTER ATHLETES
III December 1936, a sixteen-yearold
high school basketball player, in
a county not very far away, developed
a persistent cold with c'&UKh and
fever. The following month, he had
a pulmonary hemorrhage. About two
months later, he was X-rayed and
found to have generalized tuberculosis
with cavity formation. Soon ho
was admitted to a state saniatorium
for ti^erculosis cases too late to do
any good.
At the same, school, a seventeenyear-old
girl showed signs of weakness.
fatgue and temperature followed
by acute illness for. two weeks.
Examination revealed pulmonary tuberculosis
needing care in a sanatorium.
During the time those things were
taking place in the lives of students
[>laying athletic games, the hlgli,
school basketball coach began to lose
weight and developed a slight cough. |
Little attention was made to these
symptoms for about six months.
When the coach finally sought medical
attention, it was found that he had
tuberculosis In both lungs and was
expectorating and spitting Up tuberculosis
germs.
So far nothing quite this serious
has happened among the athletes in
the Kershaw eounty high schools, but
during the past year, several students,
whose parents were asked to see their
family physician about the advisability
of young people in their homes
continuing in the games, kept on playing.
Already there have been -unfavorable
results in the ease of one of
the students whose health needed special
protection.
Because athletic games ar^ strenmous
and so many cases of tuberculosis
develop among young people between
the ages of .fifteen and twentyfive,
all superintendents of Kershaw
county high schools are being urged
toiy the local tuberculosis association
to see that students participating in
athletics ..and coaches for. athletic
games are examined for tuberculosis
at the beginning and close of each
school year. ' H
Tuberculin tests have been given
in two high schools during the past
week and X-ray clinics will be arranged
at an early date for those needing
examination. In this and many other
ways, the Kershaw county tuberculosis
association carries on a yearround
program for the protection of
the county's youths, thus giving tho
dollars invested in Christmas Seals
each year a continuous chance to render
good service.

Ml ALWAYS BUY ABCADIAN NITRATI, the
American SODA, for the saihe good reasons
that I always trade in my home town.I know
that my neighbors will give me good quality
at a fair price. They want my friendship and
my business for many years to come.
"Since homefolks started making ARCADIAN
right here in the South, we have been
getting better in a better bag at a lower
price. During the 11 years that the big Ameri- ?
can nitrate plant has been operating at Hopewell,
Virginia, the price of ni*rate of soda has
come down 40 per cent. And, under preeent
condition*, it's good to know we have an
American supply of soda.
"Yes, sir, I say: Look for Uncle Sam on the

the American SODA! Buy everything from
