From the American revolution to
ISSl was a time of proaperlty,
brought about by the .yucceasful
production of cotton whlcl^ went
to feed the looms of England, where
it was manufactured into fabrics
for which there wss a world de
mand.
Many such phases of Southern
life pass before your eyes Includ
ing the dark pages of history when
the way back had to be painfully
and laboriously undertaken.
But now we would say that
the tranaltiofi has occurred. A
smiling South is smsrglng and
ths smils is ths bettsr for hav
ing been retarded during .a
period of travail.
From the magnificently colorful
Charleston gardens to the Orest
Smokies; from the tropical beauty
of Florida to the one and only
New Orleans—up the'Mlsslsglppl
or Urest to the Pacific there ia a
quickening and f tlrring of the hope
of better thinff at band.
A land tl^t has inspired the
tradition of gallantry, courtesy and
hospitality such as the South of
yesterday and today can point with
public opinion relegataa them to the
back page and so 'on to the ob-
lirlon they deaerra.
Should you wkh (s tcc^n-
kiinc at Its beat, walk down
Broad stroat in Camdan oh a

Laughter and good fselhig
ssMn to radiate from old and
young who have com* to tomi
for the weekly purehasoo and
a glad handshake.
A bustling friendly street with
out disorder, which many an
American town would do well to
emulate.
And 80 On this hot Sunday after
noon. in searching for a word to
describe these pictures of Camden
that keep recurring for the past'
three whiter aeaaisg, it sudSaalf
occurred to me that the answar
wss Peace, Peace of mind. Har
mony with your onvironmmit sad
love of your Qod and your neigh
bor, a peace that flows about yon
and touches all stratgs of life. The
whole atmosphere of the town k
Pease. “It is full of the sonrea of
Peace” as the Rev. Nicholas Ble-
man writes to the “Far East” “Add
to this a quiet beauty of ths coun
tryside, the mildness of the air,
the friendliness of sH and yon have
a heaven of peace and rest."
'That’s all there Is—there isn't
any more.
