Investigation disclosed the informa tion from Secretary Whaley's office that the "Old Reliable E. I. It." of Sumter, the "Gamecock city Hot Air Artist" hud suddenly "blew in" and that ran the temperature down a great many degrres. Emmett I. Keardon is the managing secretary of tho Sumter Chamber of Commerce and l?e was the first arrival uf the commercial eeretarles who are to meet here today in quarterly ses sion. Emmett says that it is character istic of Sumter men to be first in every thing, so lie did not feel lonesome last evening. Mr. llcardon has already taken in some of Anderson and to the reporter of The Intelligencer lie handed out Home interesting "dope" about his im pressions of Anderson. He said: "I am man enough to \Jrait that Ander son has surprised me in many ways. I thought she was in Sumter's class as those two cities have been running a "neck and neck race" for years for fifth place in population in this State. "I started out with the Intention of coming here to tell you people how to run a chamber of commerce and a city government. "Hut since I struck this hustling and pretty burg I think 1 will take the ad vice offered me by Councilman J. P. Hooth once upon a time when 1 talked myself out of a good job. "After my friend Booth had secured me another good position he said 'You go ahead and nurse .this job and keep your big mouthshut.' So I don't think I will offer Anderson any free advice about running itself. "fjlumter Is otHl the leading city o* this State in many ways, but Ander bun has put over a few things on us, I admit. Take your Interurban railway for instance. That is a good proposi tion for any city to follow. I like tho fine, smooth and clean directs . ou have here. Your manufacturing en terprises look mighty good to me. An u?Fa?? hau the appearance of a wido a-wake and prosperous city. "This city has been famous for its hospitality for ruauy years. The com mercial secretaries attending the meet ing here will go home with some new ideas as to how to mako things hum after seeing the Electric City of An ucfnO?. "I had a taste of Anderson hospitali ty some years ago when tho South Car olina Press Association visited Clem son- College from Greenville, where we were in Bession. When we arrived at Calhoun with u party of about three hundred and fifty we found about ono hundred automobiles and carriages there that bad been sent over from hospitable Anderson for our use dur ing the entire day. I had a swell time. I had taken five ladles.With me. You see Jones was paying the freight, so I cut n big swell at somebody else's expense that day. I expect'to pull off another similar good time stunt be fore I leave Anderson. "In regard, to Sumter's unique form of government, consisting of the modified commission government and city manager plan,* I expect to tell you something about that Friday at the secretaries meeting. "I am now getting a line on things in Anderson bo as to know how to gauge the hot air tcnV before starting off to tell .any more. I am very nerv ous about talking too much, as I am afraid I will talk myself out of anoth er job. But there is one thing I can't help saying, and that 1b your Anderson lsdf.es are sure uome sweet and good looking and they remind roe of 'home sweet home,* the 'Gamecock City of $:rmter girls.'
