HELP IS NEEDED FOR
OF SCHOOL FIKE
The tragedy which occurred in a
school building in Camden, South Car¬
olina, a few nights ago, shocked the
entire country. Such a holocaust is
rarely recorded. The building took
fire and nearly eighty lives were lost.
In audition there are many widows
and hundreds of orphaned children
as a result of the fire. Many of these
are without means of even temporary
support, and while the little citv of
Camden ,, , has , done . and , is . still ... doing . .
H *-° relieve their present . dis- ..
a “ can
tress, it finds that it cannot do what
should be done for them, so a call has
been issued by the governor of South
Carolina, to all the people of the
TJnited States to contribute what they
fep) tbey can ’ th ™ugh the Amerjpan
ross > to their necessities.
It is the old story of ^
a wooden
building crowded with people
to the ground before those in it could,
in the excitement and confusion of the
moment, make their exit. School was ,
closing with a play being presented
by the pupils, and the place was filled
j- be relatives and friends of those
takinjx part.
Sufficient details of the horror have
been published in the news columns,
flnd the ca „ for help for thoss in
need also. The facts are within the
knowledge of Brunswick people, and
it is a splendid opportunity for the
Kenerous . hearted peop]e of this city

follows: Jano Adarps, philanthrop

This may be and probably is as
,r 0 od a list as could be agreed on, but
the average reader will not know
whether it is or not, a number of the
names being little known outside of
limited qircles. In all probability
there has been a wider interest in the
section of the country represented
than in the list itself—the fact that
the West contributed four names, the
South three, New York State three,
Pennsylvania two, and all New

THE INCREASE IN LIVING
Government reports confirm the
general statement that living costs
are steadily mounting. Late indiea
tions point to a very material rise in
the cost of many products, particular
j y manufactured articles. It indicates
f ur t ber ldse during the summer
.,,,,1 early fall, unless something un
f oresecn occurs, according to the
Thomasville Times-Enterprise.
During the time that the necessities
,,(• jjf e mount to fiigh peaks of cost,
there is always a disposition on the
part 0 f waK€ and salary earners t,o
boos t the price of their labors. It is
bu( . a na t U ral desire because these
people are the ones, who are hardest
hit by the rise. This causes a propor
tionate j.jgg in otber things and adds
to tbe g enera j confusion and suffer
j ng _
recent deman d on the part
tbe building trades to cut off all build
ing at once is having its effect. Many
people with plans ready and bids
offered ar( . c i, )H i n g down, refusing to
bui]f| jn tbe f ace 0 f the enormous
cQSts Sugar consumers took things
iHto thcir own hands and repudiated
the tariff that made sugar rise to en
tirely too high prices recently.
It looks now as if the merchant::
were in for another strife, such as
they experienced during the war when
they were ground between two con¬
tending forces, the manufactures and
-.eonspniers. Manufacturers s have
(■(insistently raided price’s until
have become exhorbitant. They did
: ; ; 0 without any foundation or ex
i eu-se, simply because they seem to b<
J jf) get them
The retai , merc hants are forced
i have goods on their shelves and car-
f ry the articles into the hands of
i consumer. They naturally bear the
brunt of the attack that is made on
high prices, when it rarely, if ever,
deserved and is in no way connected
with the real cause that prompts it.
If people woud demand the scale of
prices may by retail merchants and
those made by manufacturers they
would then see who is profiteering
and.it woudln’t be the man at
especially when prices are high.
The people are beginning to exert
their influence toward a buyers’
strike. Many are curtailing all things
except those that are essential. They
are going to follow the lead of-the
housewives who brought down sugar
and unless we see a very smart
change on the part of the
turers there is going to be trouble in 1
the fall, the same sort and kind of
trouble that is so expensive for the;
re t a jj er an .j w hich cannot be shifted
as jj. sbou ] d be> j 0 bbe p ar ties really
RU jjj y 0 f producing these conditions.
j t jg & very ser i ous problem s$ the
prcsent time and one that is niol . e
than one merchant is worr ying about.
The consumer is als0 upset and it !S
already causing an unrest that is go¬
ing to prove seriously demoralizing
to both labor and capital before it is j
over. !
CANDIDATE CHOOSING I
According to a Washington cor- j
respondent of the New York World
the Democratic party must have for
a Presidential candidate in 1924 “a ■
man who is sure to carry the wet j
East, who will not be anathema to |
the Dry West, who will not be fought
on religious grounds, against whom i
geographical' prejudice will not run, I
who . past , the , sate f for * a

want one who reasonably can look for
a second term, who does not carry the
handicap of defeat, and who does not

people.”

THE CROSS
God laid upon my back a grievous
load,
A heavy cross to bear along the road. '
I staggered on, till, lot one weary day
An angry lion leaped across my way.
j prayed to God, and swift at His
command,
The cross became a weapon in my
hand;
it slew my raging enemy and then 1
it leaped upon my back, a cross again!
] I faltered many a league, until at
( | length,
Groaning, I fell and found no further
strength.
I cried: O God, I am so weak and lame
j \nd swift the cross a winged staff be
j came.
j t swep t me on till I retrieved my i
loss,
Then leaped upon my back again a
cross;
[ reached a desert—on its burning
track,
j s till preserved the cross upon my
back.
No Shade was there, and in the burn
mg sun
I sank me down and thought may day
was done;
But God’s grace works many a swee^
surprise,
The cross became a tree before my
cyes
I slept,, awoke, and had the strength
