In output,
"The cord Industry is on the es
sential list and ranks in importance

munitions and similar vital war ma

Important front-line weapons—planes,
tanks and big guns—are equipp^ with

c.ord. If we are to meet the Increas

on the fighting lines, it becomes of
I vital importance that cord production

itsh this, it is necessary that all work

big laugh at the ypkeiesque action of
Camden motorists trailing the red fire
buggies on a mad rush to a blaze.
For you see—In the Ittrger cities,
and even in many smaller communi
ties, this mad rush to follow the red
trucks is not permitted. As a matter
o^ fact, a police officer informs us
that it is against the law right here
in Camden. But they still do it.
Sunday noon a fire on South Mill
street sent tffe fire trucks scurrying
forth and when the red buggies koared
east on DeKalb street they weyre close

at least fifty autos. Of course some
of them carried members of the fire

grani have been restricted for the

explained, "but expanded training
ed that it now has openings In the
Corps for forty If-year-old boys for
enlistment. This announcement was
cer In Charge, today. It was pointed
out in the announcement that boys
whb have reached the age of 17 may
apply for enlistment as volunteers in
•the' Marine Corps Reserve and if
found acceptable they wlll^ be sent to
the Marine Training base at Parris
Island where they .will be trained for
duty in the Marine Corps. These boys
must have the consent of their par
ents or guardians and furnish a birth
certificate. It is possible under the
current arrangemmit to send approxi
mately half of tbie men who are ac
cepted immediately to Parris Island
for training. The balance will be las-
slgned to inactive duty' and rftumed
to th^r homes for a waiting period
of approximately 60 days. Captain
Clark urges that all boys who can
qualify, contact the Marine Corps Re
cruiting Station at Columbia Immedi
ately In order that they may come un
der the provisions of the 168th Anni
versary program of the Marine Corps.
This anniversary celebration will be
a program open to the public, to be
hAid Jn tha Stale Housp at Columbla-
at 4:30 p. m., Nov. 10, 1943. The first
unit of Marines was authorized by an
act of the^ Ckmtinental ^^ongrescr on
November 10, i775. During the course
of its colorful existence, the Marine
Corps ■ has participated in almost
every major-engagement In which the
United States has been involved. Ma
rines have protected American Inter
ests all over the face of the earth
since they were formed, having made
more than 200 actual landings on for
eign soil.
From the Halle of Montezuma to
the Shores of Tripoli covers only a
small portion of the activities of the
Marine Corps.
Captain Clark calls attention to the
fact that a Marine is perhaps one of
the best trained men in our armed
forces because the Marine Corps is a
comparatively small organisation and
each member must be efficient and
versatile. He must have an under
standing of all arms and become ex
pert in their use. In order to do this
a raafr enter!^ the Marine Corps as
a volunteer must be physically fit,
mentally alert and have a good moral
background. The announcement urged
that all 17 year old boys who are eli
gible take immediate steps tokrard
their enlistment and the first twenty
accepted will be allowed to give their
choice of leaving for Paris Island im
mediately or returning home for the
waiting period.'
