For the mineral re- wourcea of the South are of almost incred ible variety and abundance. Thia vast mineral wealth constitutes one of the country’s greatest'"assets. It is helping America to build a chemical industry which leads the world, with scores-of products ranging from synthetic rubber to bromine from sea water. Today, the minerals of the South con stitute a factor of vital importwee in the wagingofwar.In the years to come, these re sources will contribute in greater measure to the upbuilding of the industrial South. From the phosphate beds of Florida and the coal and iron deposits of Alabama to the synthetic nitrogen plants of Virginia, the Seaboard Railway has shared in the development of the South’s mineral re sources. On the established principle the welfare of the railroad depends on the prosperity of its patrons, the Seaboard has worked for many years for the economic development of the territory it seTves.The Seaboard will plan and work in the future, as in the past, for the fullest development of the Ruth’s vast mineral resources.

The Columbia game was played here last' Wednesday and was featur ed by more of that sensational sharp shooting by Rube Wilson who hung up 18 strikeouts to make his total for the Sumter and Columbia games 38, which is some record. The Camden talent journeyed to Sumter Thursday night and won s ten inning scrap 12 to 11, despite the efforts of a duo of brass hat umpires from Shaw Field to hand the game to the Gamecocks by a 13 to 12 score. The battle was one of the corniest seen on a South Carolina baseball pasture in years. It lasted well over three hours, coming to a flhisli at the midnight hour. It was a spectacle of messy fielding, hard hitting and some of the weirdest kind of umpir ing. Cox, Wilson and Horton did the hit ting for Camden while Parker ran wild on the sacks. For Sumter Gra ham led the hitting. Camden used- Buke, Taylor and Scott as .pitchers, with Hancock on the receiving end. Sutton, Lynn, Reynolds, Clements did the hurling for Sumter with Hall working back of the bat. Tt% game at West Columbia found Camden winning by a 5 to 1 score. Taylor did the pitching for the Bull dog outfit with Hancock catching. It was a good game, devoid of any wrangling and <?amden won by reason of superiority on the defense as well as being able to hit in the clutches. Camden has won 6 games this sea son. The team split even with the Royal Cords of Winnsboro, defeated Snmtfer twice and laced Columbia, Cheraw and Weat Columbia once. - State Theatre KERSHAW, S. C.
