CCC Camp, March 8.—Fire season
has commenced with March, and four
fires Saturday, March 6. Previous to
this the boys of this camp had been
called to several fires from time to
time, and there was one late Friday
afternoon. But Saturday was the
big: day. Mr. Murray was in charge,
and he said that two were big ones
and two were little ones. Un
fortunately, two or three of these
came almost at the same time late
Saturday afternoon. After the regu
lar fire crew was out, with Mr, Mur
ray in charge, another one had to be
sent out with a leader in charge, com
posed of volunteers who were around
camp but not on fire duty. March is
the worst month, and probably after
this things will slow down again, so
far as fires are concerned.
We had many vistors in camp last
week. Among them were the follow
ing: John Stone, Regional Inspector
of ECW, from Atlanta. J. R. Mc-
Lees, State Inspector of ECW from
Columbia. W. W. Scott, Draftsman
from the Veterans’ camp at Sumter.
Chaplain R. L. Vann. John Boyles, of
the Reid Furniture Co. Miss Jo Black.
Lieut W. P. Pope and G. H. McNak,
from Fort Moultrie. Eitel Bauer, of
the State Foresters’ office in Colum
bia. Ebb Edgerton, also of the State
Foresters’ office.
so to an office of the State Medical
Society. In spite of his busy life, he
always found time to attend regularly
his church, thus putting to shame
those who haven’t time for the spirit
ual things of life.
In my imagination, I seem to hear
the Lord say to him as he stands be
fore Him to give an account of his
li|e, “I was sick and ye visited me.”
“But, Saviour, when did I visit you
when you were sick, Lord?” Then
shall the Saviour of Mankind', the
Great Physician, say, ’’Inasmuch as
ye have done it unto one of the least
of these my brethren, ye have done it
unto me.”
The funeral services were conducted
the Dunbarton Baptiit Church on
January 4th, at 2:30 p. m., by Rev.
J. M. Flowers, pastor. Interment was
at the family cemetery near Martins.
He is survived by his wife, one daugh
ter, Marian, and seven sons, A. W.
Ellis, of Meyer’s Mill; E. W. Ellis, Jr.,
of Fort Valley, Ga., B. D. Ellis, of
Barnwell, G. F. Ellis, of Bamberg; C.
M. Ellis, of Florence; R. A. Ellis, Jr.,
student at Furman University, and J.
K. Ellis, of Ellenton. He is also sur-
ived by two brothers, R. A. Ellis and
C. B. Ellis, and three sisters, Mrs. C.
B. Dunbar, Miss Olivia Ellis and Mrs.
Julia Ellis.

Dr. E. W. Ellis.
iM’
Barnwell County has lost one of
her best citizens. On January 3rd,
Dr. E. W. Ellis, of Dunbarton, passed
on to his reward, and Barnwell Coun
ty will miss him more than it can
realize now.
For forty years, Dr. Ellis with his
little satchel of instruments and medi
cines has been a familiar figure to the
residents of this section of the State.
Before the time of the automobile and
paved roads, he would hitch his horse
to his road cart and in winter and
summer, drive miles to serve humani
ty.
The country doctor, of which Dr.
Ellis was a splendid example, has
always excited my admiration. I am
a country preacher, and the country
preacher knows the hardships of the
country doctor, perhaps, more than
anyone else. Their’s are kindred pro
fessions. The country doctor is edu
cated in the same schools and in the
same way, taking the same course of
study as the doctor who hangs out his
shingle in the city where he has a
splendid opportunity of making a
name for himself. The country doc
tor chooses instead the life of obscuri
ty and hardships and enters his pro
fession of humanitarian in some small
community. For him, there will
never be the earthly acclaim that is
accorded his brother in the larger
fields, and perhaps not even due ap
preciation of his worth, but he has
deliberately chosen his field of ser
vice and is willing to sacrifice his life,
if need be, in that service. “But,”
you say, “he does receive compensa
tion—he is paid.” Yes, sometimes,
but the matter of pay does not enter
into it at all. I don’t believe I ever
saw a country doctor leave his chil
dren very much at death. Many times
he not only goes at all hours of the
night and in all kinds of weather to
those who cannot pay him for his
services, but frequently, out, of his
own pocket, purchases neede medi
cines and food for those whom he is
serving, knowing he will never re
ceive one cent for it..
Truly, Dr. Ellis was a living ex
ample of this type of citizen. Re
ceiving his medical training at the
University of Georgia, he chose our
end of the county for his field of ser
vice. He was too big a man to re
main simply a citizen of this vicinity
alone. He was elected to the legisla
ture for one term. When he was
elected, Allendale County was a part
of Barnwell County, and while he was
in the legislature, Allendale County
was cut off from Barnwell County, and
it was his privilege to serve two coun
ties at the same time. ,He did not
feel it was his duty to offer for a
second term, but chose rather to re
tire to his practice. He was also
honored by being elected President of
Ike Barnwell Medical Society, and al-

Get Lasting Benefit
from Relief Labor!
BUILD NEEDED SIDEWALKS AND
OTHER PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS
W ORK relief projects must be found. The best
ones are those which result in permanent com
munity benefits.
Many blocks of new sidewalks are urgently needed-
will have to be built soon anyway to extend present
walks or replace old, wornout, dangerous walks.
Why not build these needed walks with relief labor!
Hundreds of other cities have found this type of
project ideal.
Curb and gutter construction, drainage structures,
park improvements, swimming pools, salvaging old
streets—these are only a few among hundreds of
beneficial concrete improvements that create maxi
mum work.
Write or wire for literature and timely facts on spe
cific types of projects using concrete.
