Judge T.. E. Davis of Camden was
elected chairman of the meeting,
which was we'll attended. Officers
and directors were elected, COM
posed of some of our best and most
enterprising citizens. When the
bank opened for business money
was plentiful. Cashier A. S. JUS
tice of the First National Bank of
Camden was present, and he said
it was the second bank in Tonnes
see that went over the capital
stock. The bank is capitalized at
$4,000. The first days deposits
were fine, and they are climbing
in FIVE figures rapidly. After the
stockholders got through with the
business on hand, the ladies did
their part by preparing sumptu-
GUS dinner, and when they an
nounced everything in readiness,
good things to eat seemed to be as
plentiful as money. Thanks were
offered by DR.. j. t. Sparks, and
something near two hundred peo-
pie eat dinner in the new bank
building. There was plenty to eat
and to spare, and all seemed to
have nice time and enjoy the &C.
casion hugely.

GETTING READY FOR ROGUE TOURNEY
Secretary Bishop Sends Out Notices to the Clubs About the Country Large Attendance Expected Third Week in August.

The national roque tournament. which Is to be held here, commencing August 1T, and continuing through the week, is but little over two weeks off and plans have been under way for some time for the holding of the tourney here.
 On Thursday Secretary Nathan L.. Bishop was sending out notices to the clubs throughout the country, refnind- ing them of the tournament. The cir cular reads Es follows:
 Norwich, Conn, July 29, 1909. 1.
 This may rsmind all lovers of roque that the time for the annual tourna- ment is rapidly approaching.
 In planning vacation trips and pleas ures it is important to keep in mind the third Tuesday of August and so arrange the itinerary that the week spent in Norwich, Conn.
 Nine courts, unsurpassed for excel lence either in surface, border or other equipment, located in a spot noted for it's loveliness, will furnish the field on which the game of roque under the guidance of the officials of the Nation al Roque association of America will be seen in it's perfection.
 It is hoped that every club, in the country will be represented and that all will participate in the struggle for the championship.
 Any club, by the payment of a fee of $2 at the annual meeting which oc- CUTS Wednesday,, August IS, may be- come member of the association and be entitled to representation by any number of delegates with power to vote. An additional fee of $2 is col lected of each playing delegate.

The secretary will be pleased to aid any that may desire in procuring board at reasonable rates.
 By order of
 J. H. Macdonald, President.
 N. L. Bishop. Secretary.
 The officers of the organization are as follows: President, J. H. Mac Donald, 2133 Kenmore avenue, Chica- go, H.; secretary treasurer N. L. Bishop. Norwich, Conn; chairmen of committees. w. l.. Robinson, Mans field. Mass, on arrangements; A. w. Dckey, Norwich, on grounds; Charles Jaeobus, Springfield Mass, on finance; w. H. Wahley, Washington, D. C., on committee on rules.
 President Macdonald, in writing to the secretary, states that there is more enthusiasm than ever this year in Chi cago and a good representation is ex- pected
 The grounds have been put in fine condition by Chairman Dickey of the committee in charge and number of the players have been knocking the balls about. Bosworth of New Lon- don has been up getting into shape, and gives promise of some fast work this year. It is not expected that George C. Strong will play this year. He did not play last year, owing to poor health, and was greatly missed. This year it is probable that he will be only visitor heres if he attends at all.
 The local enthusiasts do not seem to get into the game very strongly this year so far, but it is probable that there will be three from here to en- ter. They will probably be Tracy Rudd, Frank H. Foss and Carltoh P. Brown ing.
