Contest Department has been almost ;
swamped with letters usklng for full
information pertaining to tiie great '<
$2,000.00 contest inaugurated by The !
Anderson Daily Intelligencer. * Front i
all sections of the State come reports 1
of general interest The public has i
taken in this bit; campaign. Appro*!- i
mately two thousand dollars has been
expended by The Anderson Intelllgcn-.
cer for prizes hi this contest. This is
all to be given without a cent of cost i
to the energetic''people of the State.
It Is not at nil surprising that the
fancy of every one in the territory Is
centered on The Anderson Dally In
telligencer's prizes. There Is not one
among the prizes that Is not worth
a little effort to win. This is all that
The Anderson Daily Intelligencer asks

Some people have f.ald that shortly

Secretary of Surater Chamber of
Commerce Says Some of Hie
Pretty Things of Anderson
The local weather man in this city
could not understand why the weather
bureau apparatus suddenly went to
'missing circuit" and the cold enap
went off with u "hot box" sizzle about
5 o'clock last evening.
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.' "
