BOYKIN City Clerk sad Treasurer Impressive Program ' Vv On? Armistice Day (Continued from first page) 01 his country' here in our own country. "The Question I want to raise in your minds for a moment is this: are we going to show ourselves worthy of the sacrifices which were made for us in the last war and those already listed In this one? "War today is not a matter only for those wearing the uniforms of their respective countries, but it embraces every member of every community of the country Involved. Are we nonuniformed soldiers of our country going to be equal to the sacrifices that will be demanded of us in the very near future? To use the words sculptored on the tomb of the unknown soldier In Arlington: "are we ready to resolve not only that these' men shall not have died in vain but that we ourselves will make any sacrifice demanded of us, such as, the giving up of our pleasures, the giving up of our comforts, the giving of our monies to provide the tools for the preservation of the things we hold dear.' May I close with those immortal words spoken by one of the world's great democratic leaders recently, 'When our turn comes for the blood and sweat and tears, may we be equal to them in courage and power to endure.' Prior to the exercises, which were presided over by Post Commander John Mullen of the Leroy Belk Post, American Legion; the 109th Field Artillery band from the Public Relations Headquarters and with a platoon from Battery E from the same unit gave a patriotic concert in the down town area and then led the big parade to the Square where the American military units were Joined by British and American cadets from the flying post here. White crosses on the green of the Square designated the honored dead from Camden and this year the names of Sergeant Lorick of Company M and Cadet Pritchard of England were added to the scroll and cross designations. -Camden girls placed green wreaths over the crosses as the names of the dead were read off. The sounding of taps, a salute to the dead by a firing squad from the army headquarters and the playing of. the national anthem completed the ceremony. Weekly News Letter From Liberty Hill Liberty Hill, Nov., 11?Armistice Day! No organized celebration honoring the day that marked the end of hostilities in the World War in this section that we have heard of. but almost a continuous roaring and rumbling as of moving trucks and airplanes in the cohnfry weet of the Catawba river in Fairfield and Chester counties, between Blackstock and t)ie city of'Chester, where army activities are probably centering today (Tuesday.) A moving picture show was given on Monday night at the second Presbyterian church sponsored by the Kershaw county forest protective association. - A good number was in attendance notwithstanding the cold1 and unpleasant weather. District! Forester Horace. Campbell, active and i energetic county ranger, W. C. Perry,, and vigilant and faithful Township Warden, W. E. Cunningham, ' were j present and each gave interesting talks on the aims and objects of this] most commendable and worth while j government project for the protection and conservation of the soil and timber resources of the state, as well as to protect and encourage the increase of our wildlife denizens of field and forest. Broadus Bradley, our eagleeyed town watchman, who is tops on detecting Incipient forest fires, and Mr. Copeland, of the Lancaster association, were present. Cato A. James, prominent colored citizen, spoke a few words thanking the authorities, and encouraging his people to comply with the law and ''be careful with fire." Mr. Pickens was the manager of the picture machine which showed many forest animals and birds on the screen. N. S. Richards, W. C. Wardlaw and G. R. Clements went to Pine Grove church in Weet Wateree on Sunday evening to attend the funeral of Hon. Newton Kelly. The church was filled to capacity and many were unable to get standing room Inside, denoting for one of ltsjiotable citizens who had the esteem of the people of the county served in different official positions. Mr. and Mrs. W. Z. Hilton had as guests on Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Jones and sons, Johnnie, Jr., Billy and Jack; John Lawhorn, of Jefferson; Mrs. L. J.

Miss Sarah Cunningham, of the Cheraw schools, spent Sunday at home with her parents. Frank Crenshaw was visiting here J on 8unday end attended services ?t the Presbyterian church. --- * "- - -~-v IN SELLING TIMBER ^ DON'T CUT TOO HEAVILY With good timber markets this fall, coupled with the relatively poor cotton crop, many Kershaw county farmerB are apt to cut their timber too heavily In order to clear up debts that -are usuhlly settled at this time of year. In an effort to avoid some of the Berlous consequences accompanying heavy cutting for timber, the State Forest Service and the coftnty "agent's office are cooperating in a program of education and service for the landowners of the county. This will consist of demonstrations, and advice and assistance In marking trees for cutting and also In other management problems incident thereto. In oonnection with this Joint program, the agencies are calling farmers' attention to a few points to remember in cutting timber this fall: As prices go up, the money farmers get will not be worth as much, and the man who has reserved a good stock of growing trees may have more real value than the one who has sold everything in sight "while prices aro good." Trees coming into salable size are increasing in value faster than invested money is ever likely'to earn in interest. In many instances the farmer will be far better off by permitting some of his debts to go over into the next year rather than cutting all of his timber to pay all of his debts this fall. Under present prices now, sell some of the trees, but mark those that are to be cut and sell on a selective basis, leaving plenty of trees for future harvests. Indications are that good timber prices will continue for several years. T. P. McCrae, who has been In Alabama for some time was at home last week. The present cold spell brought the first heavy frost and ice of the season.

This munlae. meaning hoth you end tin' and especlalh our son John, can't henr to he slowed down The guy that is in front of him (or us) is a pokey old fool and doesn't know how to drive a car in the first place. Instead of v making t? lights, as lie should. he makes only one light, Evun when lie (and wo) are going no place In particular, it drives us frantic to tie caught hot worn a car and a red light. We simply can't wait a minute, hut the only thing we have too much of I Is time. We'll never he a hie to nso nil of It up. ?There's a mania to pass a car in front of you even If you are going to a funeral or fetching your mother-inlaw home with you for a month's stay. Nobody has ever been able to analyze this great hurry that wo slam into when we gel Into it car. We spurt around corners at 7f? m. p. h., yet % we could have stayed at home just as well nnd nobody would have lost anything by It. We skeet by other enrs at 90 m. p. h. and possibly park 75 feet from the point at which we sk^oted. The desire to rush and race Impels onward and sometimes downward, often to the hospital and frequently to the cemetery. ?And it's u funny thing about wrecks, too. Did you ever notice that most all of our bad wreckB take place on good roads.... roads that are usually straight and wide? Did you ever hear of a wreck on a bad road where driving slowly was a physical necessity? And furthermore?If you'll think back: about 90 per cent of our bad wrecks are composed of new or practically new cars. Auto Inspection by the highway department is just another job. If your car won't run you won't run it. If your lights won't burn, you will be arrested, etc. It is only a garage feeder. But this "hurry" bug has got us all. If we could cut that out and drive at a sensible rate, say around 40 to 50 m. p. h., there wouldn't be any wrecks and the asylums would soon be less crowded. EASY TERM8 ?I went into a store the other day with the idea of buying a few things. I was surprised to And the "new order" of pricing merchandise. I saw a little table that I liked and I asked how much and the man said 50c a week. That sounded mighty cheap till he said how many weeks. His stoves were priced from $1.00 to $2.00 a month. He offered me a nice bedroom suite for only $1.50 a week. Looks like anybody could sleep (a week) on a bed at such a low price as that. ?This man had some nice looking rugs at only 26c a week, but the art squares, made of wool, cotton, jute, and stuff, were as high as $1.60 a week. Very few items were priced by the month, and nothing at all for 60 * days. 1 found some real bargains in the "nothing down" department. I felt sort of like buying him out. Those terms certainly were loaded with appeal. Had a big assortment of goods that had been returned because of the third or fourth week going by unnoticed by the purchaser. ?A 6-tube radio was only 75c a week. He said you could get Hitler and Cuby on it, and sometimes Mussolini. I wasn't interested in anything that talked a foreign language. It's hard enough for me to understand what folks are saying when they pretend to be using the English language. The Britons use a brogue that is almost as bad as Brooklyn. His bed-spreads were mlgthy nice at from 60c to 79c a week. ?He never thought for a minute that I might have wanted to pay cash for something. As a matter of fact, I am not sure that he sold for cash at all. But his figures seemed low enough for a person without money. Lots of houses are furnished liberally by rea* son of the "week" plan.
