Calhoun, one of the country's greatest statesmen, fell out with President Andrew Jackson while serving as Vice President, and the two were never on speaking terms again. The episode cost Calhoun the Presidency, as Jackson turned thumbs down on the South Carolinian. Mr. Garner may or may not have received Iris party's nomination, If Mr. Roosevelt had not decided to try for a third term; but it Is exceeding doubtful whether he could have defeated Willkie.

(Adv.) Mil 11 Finds Peace Only In His Death Oltham. Knglnnd, Nov. 10?<NovlUu Chamberlain. who dtxllcaied hlniseK to ^ peace l?ut reaolut*ly made war when there wan no other way. has found hie own peace In death amid the boinba tried to keep from fallIng. II la strength spent by yeara of snaggle, IIrat to save Buropo's peace and then as leader of Britain's people tu the first montlia of their grimmest war. the former prime minister died early last night In his (>eacef\il country aide home. lie was 71 years old. Weakened by months of Illness, Chamberlain had fallen Into a coiha before d|raU\ came at 5:80 p. ni., (11:30 a m.) Saturday. Britain, learning only today of his death, was deeply grieved. Weeping women gathered before many news signboards and solemn men remembered the man who onoe held out to thom a promise of "peace" In our time". A small, saddened congregation at St. Michael's church, adjacent to Chamber lain'a estate, prayed.fur Ului . at vesper services tonight and heard the Rev. H. R. P. Trlughum say In eulogy: "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God and no one haB worked harder for our peace. Although his work seemed a failure It was a grand failure." For several days Chamberlain had lain gravely ill In 'his country homo, Heckfleld house, near this HampeMro town, and had been so deeply In oonia before death came that he probably never knew that King George VI and Queen Elizabeth had spent an hour at his bedside during the week. With him in his old farmhouse when he dfed were his wife and two % slstere. I , His rambling, twoettory home, standing behind a grove of tall larches In the heart of the Hampshire countryside, had been camouflaged bo hide It from German airmen. Yet, recently, seven bombs dropped close to it, at least one only 40 yards away. 1 Chamberlain's final illness began laet August, after he had been succeeded as prime minister by Winston Churchill but while he still remained as lord president of the council in Churchill's Inner cabinet. He underwent an abdominal operation and, although he returned briefly to his duties, it was apparent that his health was broken and his resignation last month had been expected. So secret was filfe doeth kept for the first hours that the congregation of St. Michael's prayed his morning for the recovery of "our nolghbor". Only as the services ended ^ Id worshippers, among them a company of home guards attending an Armistice Sunday commemoration of theshattered peaco of 1918, learn that their prayers were in vain, j It was understood that Chamber-1 Iain's body would bo taken to London within the next day or two and there already is talk of burial in Westminster Abbev, in whose crypts lie 'the remains of many of Britain's great. [ Chamberlain was Britain's prime minister from 1937 until May 10, 1940, years which encompassed the Munich "peace" and the first nine' months after the fabeful declaration of war j a i??ggggg 1 1 ? State Grid Slate All Messed Up (continued from first Much interest Is manifest here over the coming game between Charleston and Columbia. The fans who have been doing some expert guessing title season predict a win for Charleston. And should Camden then stage an upset with Charleston here on November 29, the Bulldogs will have a big edgis on claiming runner-up honors for the Palmetto state. The game with Charleston here on November 29 will climax a day of entertainment and activity incident to the Camden and Kershaw County Christmas Festival. A crowd eiual to-that which jammed the field for the Sumter game last October is being predicted. The fleaitval crowd attractM here by the big parade feature Itte in the afternoon will send many visitors to the football arena that evening. In addition to the colorful Oamden school band, the Lancaster High band will be present at the game. Announcement has been made that the Lancaster group will present a series of maneuvers botwoon halves in which the stadium lights will be turned off and the band will parade with lights On their caps. Climaxing the drill J with a fino fireworks display during which world war niuslcal hits will be played. This musicAl medley will feature the ever popular "Over There." Camden goes to Augusta this week to play the Richmond Academy team. While losing to Columbia at Columbia I recently tho cadets will be tough picking on their home lot. On the following Thursady (Thanksgiving Day) Camden goes to Gaffney. Big preparations are being made to bring out a record crowd at Gaffney for this game. The battle at Gaffney should pack plenty- of thrills, as games played by tho Gaffney team this season havo ear marked the squad as being of the fighting typo. which Chamberlain broadcast to the world September 3, 1939. On the day he resigned, Germany Invaded the low countries and began the swift Western campaign which cost France her liberty and Britain her one strong ally. John L. I^owis, If he is a man of hU? word, Is going to have to quit his 0. I. O. Job. Hut that won't put him on relief exactly, as head of the miner's organization Is said to bring him In $25,000 a your, and John 1* has probably been farseelog enough to invest his money wisely and lay aside a goodly amount for a rainy day. The Literary Digest poll of this campaign will bo Hugh Johnson, who promised to eat his column 1f Willkie lost. Our Secretary of State stood out in this bitter campaign as a favorite with both parties. Which moves us to remark that a Ship of State Is no better than its Hull. i THE HOT I WEATHER TONIC When appetite is off and your system is sluggish and ,you cafl't sleep and feel achy, tired, rundown, and pepless from temporary irregularity, try Oxidine.
