On q Camping Trip.

Four Cambridge young gentle
men, who are thoroughly enjoying
a camping trip this week, are re-
ported to have lost on an average
of about ten pounds each since
leaving their homes. The camp is
on Hirst's Island, up Shoal Creek,
and these sturdy and studious
young gentlemen, determined to
prove their resourcefulness, are do
ing their own cooking, making their
own beds, and attending to all the
household duties. The latch string
hangs Hospitality on the outside of
the door, and visitors are always
welcome, although it is said that
any unusual sound during the night
hours results in the sending out
of scouts, and all the preparations
tbat are usually attendant upon a
war camp.
The scene around the cooking
tent is said to resemble that of
the commissary department of an
army corp; fish, too, are said to
be on the bill of fare three times
day. Roast beef, roast pork and
scalloped oysters are said to have
given place to fried fish, boiled
fish, baked fish and fish chowder.

The bride entered the parlor up
on the arm of the groom, to the

After the ceremony they left for
an automobile trip to Atlantic City,
where they will spend sometime, be-
fore returning to- Philadelphia, where
they will reside at 1900 Kingsess-

A Card to Ny Friends.

For the past six months there
has been evident a pronounced SEN
timent urging me to become can
didate for State Senator This
sentiment represented my own per-
sonal and political friends pro-
gressive element, or the original
Bryan and Wilson and Lee Demo-
Gratis, as well as host of people
engaged in the fishing and oyster
industry, irrespective of party or
faction in the county.
This sentiment materialized re-
Gently in an organization and selec-
ton of a set of candidates for a
treasurership, to enter the Demo-
cratic primaries. The individuals
consisted of some of the most sub
stantial citizens, eminently quail
fled for the respective offices for
which they were candidates. l, at
least, felt a sense of pride in be-
ing dSSOcldt0u lueT6Wltu, yet, ait
err we had assembled in council,
with a number of prominent Demo-
Gratis, to go over the situation, and
filed our nomination papers with
our attorney, the concensus of opin-
ion seemed to be that no matter
what the outcome, the effect of an
aggressive campaign, which we had
prepared ourselves to make, would
necessarily engender such strife
and ill feeling as to endanger the
success of the Democratic nomi-
nees; fearing this, we advised our
attorney TO withhold each and all
of our nomination papers.
1 consider it incumbent on me to
make this public statement to our
friends, and at the same time ex-
press my deep sense of gratitude
for their loyalty.

FISHING ATTRACTS MANY
Many Enthusiasts Finding Excel
lent Sport-Trout, Rock, Perch
And Crocus Bite Freely.

During the past two or three
weeks the local fishermen have had
some of the finest line fishing ever
known iii this section. 1t is not
unusual to make a catch of from
so to 100 fine trout, rock and
perch, and so plentiful has the
supply been that such fish as are
in great demand when there is a
scarcity, are thrown back into the
water now, not being considered
worth bringing in.
One party of three, which recent
ly took a days outing, leaving ear
ly in the morning and going to
Sharps Island, caught over three
hundred fine trout. In the waters
nearby to Cambridge it is not in
frequent for one or two fishermen
TO go out and catch a peach basket
full of fish within an hour or two.
Last week one gentleman, who is
thoroughly reliable, stated that all
one mad to do was to put his line
overheard and the fish would bite
as soon as it settled down in the
water.
At no time in recent years has
the fishing been as good, and it is
a matter of no surprise to find
that the local Isaac Waltons are
just trimming over with good hui
NOR, although it is a little sur
prisiEg to find that the actual
count this year seems to be just
about right; on this account, how
ever, the men who sell fish state
that business is a little slow, as
they find no market among the fell
lows who usually purchase a big
string just before going out, or
while thew are on their trim

Friday brought the most comfort
able noon hour of the week. The off,

up IS degrees, which was degrees
less than Atlanta has been accus-
toned to recently.
Early morning temperature gave
promise Of a fifth successive suItry

Low temperature was not the only
comforting morsel dished out by the
weather bureau. A fine assortment
Of southeastern breezes varying from
10 to "A miles an hour, served to cool
the air. and slight humidity brought
more relief. Barometric pressure was

That all wealthy men are not bad
and that the peril of their riches is
not for the person acquiring them,
but for their children, was the declar-
alton Of the Rev DR.. w. B. Riley at
the Baptist Tabernacle last night in
the opening sermon of a series on the
Book of Job.
This is a day Of great fortunes
and a day of great needs. More and
more millionaires are coming to the
conclusion that charity. and not chill
dren. is the proper subject for mag
nificent grants; that 1t is both right
eous and intelligent to turn back into
the channels of the social need the
wealth acquired by the sweat Of
others brow, and even that which a
man justly claims are the result of
ones brain power"
DR.. Riley expressed but little pa
thence with the man who cries down all
