The Daughters Of the American

history. The prize of $500 was di-
vided and half given to United States
history and half to South Carolina
history. The lodges Of Sumter have
been very kind in contributing to our

and the Masons each contributed a
South Carolina flag to the schools win
ming tho greatest number of prizes.
Last year the Masons, the Junior
Order United American Mechanics

er school, q two-teacher school and a

The City National Bank offered
this year $50 to the school making

$500 to the school having the best
booth. This was won by the Dalzell

The annual meeting and smoker
of tho Sumter Chamber of Commerce
last night In the Eagles Club rooms
was largely attended and proved q
most interesting and instructive event.
The president OF the organization
made his annual report and there
were several good talks. The supper
was most delightful and bountiful
one and everything passed of as
pieasantly as anyone could wish for.
Tho attendance was fully as large as
usual, although q number os the
sumter business men were out of
town at this time and there were
otter meetings In town conflicting
with the business mems meeting. A
pleasant feature ot the meeting was
the presence Of the visiting CONNER
cial secretaries from various towns
Of the State. who arc in Sumter In
attendance upon tho quarterly session
OF the South Carolina Commercial
5ecretaries' Association.
The crowd began to gather about s
o'clock and kept on coming In until
neariy 10 o'clock. While everyone
was awaiting the call to supper. the
sumter Band played many beautiful
selected airs. which were much appre-
ciated and added greatly to the en-
jcyment OF the occasion. After the
call to supper and after supper at in
termissions the band rendered other
selections.
There were probably two hundred
or more persons gathered around
the bountifuily laid tables. when sup
pcr began and there was not a per-
son present who did not enjoy the
delightfully."- substantial repast of
chicken stew. rice. ham. sandwiches
and accessories. President Noise at
tho close Of the evening took ocaa-
sion to compliment the ladies Of the
Methodist church. terming this the
best supper, best prepared and best
served supper at any smoker which
the Chamber OF Commerce had ever
had" Others seemed to agree to his
expression.
Mr.. Noise. as president Of the asso-
citation. welcomed the visitors. who
were among those present. and made
his report Of what had been done
during tho past year and what the
Chamber OF Commerce was now en-
deavoring to do. He paid a tribute
to secretary Rcardon. saying that the
Hoard Of Directors had seeictei the
right man and much of tho work Of
the Sumter Chamber OF Commerce
had boon accomplished through his
efforts. He told OF the making Of
Sumter a tobacco market and the es-
tablishment Of tho tobacco ware
house and the proposed road to Turbe-
Vile and Olanta. through the Shiloh
section.
Mr.. Noise then called on the Rev.
David Klein. whose subject was the
