HOT OfF x THB KBV Mad news folks, especially you who have lu the past enjoyed ellmb| jUg into the family Jalopy on a hot summer afternoon and evening and moioring to the pond for a dip in the cooling water. According to a radio commentator in Washington, heard over the air last Friday, the ban on pleasure driving will not be lifted this summer. ?* ? Now that is real houeHt-to-goodness discomforting news. Imagine those long hot summer evenings with no place to go unless you walk or ride a hike or perhaps own a tyang tail and H (-,rt Of course the people who art. fortunate enough to own cottages or shacks on a lake and transfer their habitation there in the summer months will not suffer from this ban on pleasure driving. But there are hundreds of others who will do some tall cussing. * . However, wouldn't it be well to think that those lads of the land, sea and air armed forces, who are fighting in the jyngles, on the hot desert sands, have to bear a lot of discomforts. So why should we bellyache just because we have to stick around the front'yard on summer af? tertioons. We ought to thank God we have a front yard, that we have a roof over our heads. We'll bet there are * millions of people who fould gladly exchange lots with us. * ? We sort of tilt our lid to Georgia or deciding to go on the old time md discard the war-time saving time. IVe haven't been able to figure cut vhere anything has been gained by he fantastic interference with the saletidar. The fall, winter and spring ion (lis have found us eating breakst and going to work in the bleak irk hours before dawn. In the sumer the eveniugs have been long and iffocating All schedules on feedK and putting children to bed went tywire. Yes sir, we think Georgia is smart. ' * ibbath musings: Noting that the dscopal choir has become an all-. 1 affair. Watching a small lad in ? pew in front of me fuss with his ist watch and finally draw a huge :ketknife from his pocket and proid to do some repair wor^ on said tch. Wishing the janitor would n on a wee bit more hea/t. Travel-! to the Thomas' Tavern where we oyed a superb turkey dinner, loting the cleanliness of <the Tav. the choice manner In which the lis are served and commenting ti the fact that tha/t there is a lplete absence of odor of cooking Roses and Thorns Noticing the scores of bike riders ?n the street Sunday afternoon. Noicing Howard Speaks steer bis bike hrough the traffic with a skill only clever Aoco artist could offer. Seeing Rotary President Lee Mays rld-i Jg briskly homeward. Wondering what the police are going to have to aay wheu aorne l^d is killed In a collision between a bike and an auto. There apparently is no effort being made to enforce the regulation requiring bike riders to carry lights. For every one with a light Saturday night, ton or more were without. lluve you noticed in the social notes tiie mauy cocktail parties and dinner events taking place. Does anyone really believe every guest walked? * Hoses' to Lieut. Henry G. Garrison, Jr. Not only did this plucky son of Hanker Henry acquire himself an attractive bride recently, but he also crashed the gate as "Joker's Favorite," which translated meaus he was a sort of favorite among the students at Coker college. Seems ho received the highest number of votes cast In the contest sponsored by the Milestone, a Coker yearbook. Lieutenant Carrison's bride, who was formerly ' Miss Mary Alden Haynesworth, . of I Hagood, was voted as the Boaqty Queen. We are free to admit that the voters - showed outstanding Judgment in both selections. * * I Ha! Ha! Did any of you folks got the socko last Monday when you got your three gallons of gas, or perhaps a quart or two qf voil, and after asking the station agent to "just put it on my account." Your said attendant politely telling you to go jump in the lake, that it was cash and carry from now on. For a fact folks, retail dealers of petroleum products had no choice in the matter for the reason that the federal government edict which became effective at 12.01 Monday morning not only prohibited open account credit for motorists but also put the skids under the so-called "credit card" system. m We have it from several tilling station friends of ours that some of the customers got real excited when they found that they had to fork over for their gas and oil, and some even got a little irate about the matter. But they couldn't do nothing about it? at least the filling station lads couldn't and so naturally Mr. Customer couldn't either. * Well anyhow, the filling station lads will not have to worry about late or even dead accounts and Mr. Customer who has been using a credit card can turn said card over to the museum or tear it to bits and gently throw R to the winter breezes. Best of good wishes and lots of luck to Jimmy Furman Bisher, statet editor of the Charlotte News, who reported February 3, at Dartmouth College where he enters training for an ensignship in Air Combat Intelligence. Furman has been a real friend and booster for the local news service and has given a lot of Bpace to Camden news Items. He Is one fine chap. * * Oh yez! Almost forgot. Don came In last Friday and after showing us two coffee jars loaded with rat poison, started out, stopped at the door, | poked his head back in and mur-i ,mured, "Skipper, do you know that an idle sleeping war stamp album is a real war casualty?" To which we echo, Amen. * Judging by the sco{?s of people seen ?very -afternoon- and evening in the Thomas Tavern, that bright spot on DeKalb street has scored a big htt with the public. Mrs. Thomas Is kept busy looking after many group events. The Kiwanis club .is now holding Its weekly meetings there and pronounce everything to be one hundred per cent perfect. Sea-Going Hornets THB8B PAST MOTOR LAUNCHBS et the Netherlands Navy oarry a real sting.
