You will note that instead of six columns in width, your paper is now seven columns. Breaking this down it means that another column is added to each page, wShich with an 8 page edition, gives 8 more columns wherein reading matter and advertising appears. The Chronicle is read by approximately 6,600 people each week. That figure may be low, because we know of many instances where not only three in the family read the paper but it is probably scanned by half a dozen or even more. - , The Chronicle now boasts of a circulation of over 2100 and it is adding new names to the record each week. We hope our readers will like today’s larger and better Chronicle. » A VETERAN PASSES > The death of George Bowers, veteran of World War No. 1, which took place Wednesday came as a great shock to a community in which the deceased had been held in great esteem and respect. Mr. Bowers made a great con^bution to his coun try in the First World War. He enlisted in Company BI, 118th Infantry, on May 19, 1917, and on October 17, 1918, while in action with Company M in the Somme sector in France, he was shot up so severely that he lost his right arm at the shoulder and was also badly wounded in the left arm and in botti legs. For some two years he was in the Walter Reed hospital in Washington recovering, from his injuries,' and on June 3, 1920, was honorably discharged. Mr. Bowers was a farmer and cattle merchant. He was known throughout the county as a man of sterling character. He wm an entertaining and Interesting con versationalist. His death was a distinct loss to the com- niunity. Official Camden paid tribute to a good man when the bell in the city hall tower tolled during the pas sage of the funeral cortege. Veterans of the Firat World War acted as honorary bearers.
