I asked a small tot what the word Thanksgiving suggested to her and the prompt answer was “a turkey dinner and good things to eat”. Most of us would answer in a like manner. During the month, a Thanksgiving motif has been used at many social gatherings. Tallies, napkins, and other things suggest the idea with turkeys, pumpkins, and fruits. At this time, next week, we will have found these pictures turned into reality because the whole family looks foward to that one day each year when eating is the big event . Mrs. Richard Hipp, Jr., of Pomaria, president of the Council of Farm Wo- mtn, has urged all Home Demonstra tion clubs of the county to participate in the observance of Conservation Week, this week, November 14th to 20th. “Something must be done to arouse public interest in the protec tion of our forests and game, in the improvement of our roadsides, and the appreciation of our advantages,” said the Council head. Mrs. Hipp urges the farm women of the county to “conserve the heritages which na ture has given us”. She pointed out that care should be taken in the cut ting of holly and other Christmas greens so as to protect the beauty of the forest. Schools of the county and city will play an important part in the observance of this week by plant ing trees or shubbery on Arbor Day, Friday . . .

Southern Shoe Stores MAIN STREET DISTRICT YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE CONVENTION HERE The fall district meeting of the young people of the Associate Re- formefl Presbyterian church was held here Sunday afternoon and evening. About 100 delegates gathered at the A. R. P. church on Main street from Spartanburg, Greenville, Woodruff, Ora, Clinton, and Newberry churches. Miss Catherine Blakley, Clint »n, was presiding. Appearing on the program during the session were Dr. R. C. Grier, president of Erskine College, Due West; Rev. C. Bynum Betts, Clinton; Rev. W. C. Alexander, Ora. A number of the young people also had parts on the program. At an intermission hour before the evening session, light refreshments were served by the hostess church. Week-ends from now until Christ mas will be filled with exciting things to do and places to go. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, November 19, 20, and 21, Winthrop College is staging a home-coming, or they call it an “Alumnae Weekend”. More than fifty chapters of the Winthrop Daughters have been invited to send at least five delegates to the Alma Mater for an educational gathering as well as a social one. A delightful and prifitable program has been ar ranged. The Newberry county chap ter will be represented . . . With various drives on, benefit lales being held, and things of that kind on every hand, we are inclined to grumble and say. “I can’t contri bute to everything”. That’s quite true, but something comes up now that everyone can contribute to, 'arge or small, white of black. I was ambling around the other mom- ng and stopped in the offiice of the mperintendent of education for a chat with the force. Seated in the offiice was a middle aged colored man whom Mrs. Mae Aull, county attendance teacher, was interviewing. He told her that his children were anxious to attend school, but had no clothes, no shoes, and had no money to buy books. Hardly had the man le.ft when in eame a couple, an aged negro man and a middle aged woman. The woman told Mrs. Aull that she had six child ren, four of whom were girls that should be attend ng school. She stated that she was anxious for the girls to go, but she could not furnish them clothes, shoes, or books. Going with Mrs. Aull to investigate this case, we found a pitiful sight—a houseful of children scantily clothed, no beds, no food, no method of heat ing. No wonder the children were not in school! . . . The attendance teach er said she heard and investigated case after case like these every day, many of them being white people . . . Children both white and black, are willing to go to school IF only they had half a chance, so here is where you and I can help. The Department of Public Welfare cannot help these people fast enough and cannot get nearly enough to help with, so Mrs. Aull with the assistance of groups in the city and county has done much social work in addition to being at tendance teacher. Tomorrow (Fri day) and Saturday, a drive is being sponsored by the Woman’s Club for obtaining garments and bofbks for the underprivileged children . . . Fulmer Wells is co-operating by ad mitting children to the Opera House free Saturday morning if they bring clothing to the lobby of the Exchange Bank building Friday afternoon and turn them over to the committee of the Woman’s Club. Those in charge will give each child a ticket. See how you can help? Let the children dig up some clothes and shoes that have become too small for them and bring them down. I know almost every family in the city has some thing in the way of clothing that can be given away and will be welcomed by the committee in charge. Prob ably you have some of this year’s school books that are no longer in use. Please tarn them over to the Woman’s Club group. Can’t you help? . . .
