MAYOR HAS RIGHT IDEA
NMSS,

cr«.-
Ladies and gentlemen. We now tune in on the office
of Darlington, S. C., and the neirt voice you wll hear will
of M a
be that ot Mayor Fred B. Stem, a progressive business man,
who following his re-election as mayor of Darlington, ad
dressed an open letter to the people of the town in which
he asked their support and help “not only in the enforcempht
of the laws governing the city but in the beautificatiod of
Darlington." Mayor Stem: “I want yoirto help sweep Darl
ington clean of all trash, debris and rubbish accglnulating
on the streets.' The trash on our streets is an eye-sore and
banana peels and other fruit peelings thrown on the side
walks is not only a public nuisance but is dangerous to pedes
trians and is liable to subject the city to damage suits in case
any one should fall or sustain an injury.”
“We have an ordinance on the Darlington City books for
bidding the throwing of peelings and rubbish on the streets.
This is an important ordinance and it is my intention to in-
force it. I am asking all persons to refrain from throwing
fruit peelings or other trash on the sidewalks and streets,
and I am asking the merchants to keep the sidewalks in front
of their respective businesses clean. All persons in the resi
dential sections are asked to clean their yards and premises
and place the trash on the curb where the town trucks can
pick it up and move it to the rity dump pile. Let's all work
Togelhw TdFa cTe^er, more sahitaiy and attractive town.”
Button tM Th» Pliila4«tpM« JuatUtwr
Mayor Stem is to be congratulated in his hitting at a
problem which confronts many other cities in South Carolina
as well as other points in the South where similar conditions
prevail. The condition of Broad street in Camden and also
certain areas on DeKalb street is one which reflects discredit
on the city. Not only are fruit peelings thrown on the side
walks and streets but sometimes on Saturdays vou almost
-bave^ wade'throTlgh pools oT'Tobacco juke. Many cities,
have an ordinance against spitting on the sidewalks. In these
cities where the ordinance is enforced the people who suf
fered from the filthy habit were broken of it.

It seems from reports coming from overseas that the
protest of a group of American clergymen against the bomb
ing of German cities did not set so well with the men on the
firing lines.
The following excei^t from the “Stars and Stripes,” the
paper of the men in service written by an American chaplain,
shows how those at the front feel about such things as they
read of the protests “with humiliation and embarrassment.”
“If wishful thinkers could have an enemy bomb come

London and in other cities where they have experienced

NOTES FROM WOMANS AUXILIARY
OF THE CAMDEN HOSPITAL
The monthly meeting was held
Monday afternoon of this week and in
spite of the heavy rains, about fifteen
jirave members attended.
Reports from the committees proved
that all seems to be progressing
smoothly and as planned. The House
committee is faithful in supplying
magazines and keeping the bowls fill
ed with greens or flowers. The priv
ate rooms are being decorated as they
are available. The Sewing committee
has furnished many layettes, hand-
ages and bed shirts of various sizes.
The nurses’ dining ropm is in the pro
cess of being redecorated, in order to
give thenra Tnore^chccfrfnl mste from
their duties. The re-decorating of the
Nurses’ Home living room will be
completed when the new furniture ar
rives, which we hope will be before
the end of May. We nonr have 176
members.
The executive board and members
present at the meeting, approved the
idea of having a Garden Party and
Fashion Show sometime in May kt the
Sunday school building of the Presby
terian church. All those who have
any kind of flowers are urged to en
ter them. For further information,
contact Mrs. W. C. Cook, chairman
of the committee.
