Woman
By Lucile McMaster
The lady who spends most of
her time in an ante-bellum town
clock building, holds the history
and progress of Fairfield County
uppermost in her mind.
Mrs. Eloise Morris, Secretary
of the Fairfield County Chamber
of Commerce, h a s offices in
Winnsboro's historic town clock
building. This clock is said to be
the second oldest clock in contin
nious operation in America.
Mrs. Morris, wvho has served
in her position for 12 years. is
a native of Fairfield County and
is descended froiml the Stevenson
family. Therefore, she is imbued
with the county's ea rly history
and has a keen desite for service
to the people of lier na.1tive
county.
Working Variety
When asked why she prel'ers
this particular type otf work, she
replies, "t like people and I like
to be 4t servite to pc-ple. It is
a very in ter tm thinl.g too, to
see them nt1fied iito groups,
working for the welfare of their
towl antid county."
Nirs. lorris has a lense of
humnor lwhich helps her through
ut, tedious pr-obleis and details
and a syipathy which enhances
her service and understanding.
She speaks with warmth of the
many citizens who have contrih
uted to the developliient of the
county. She considers her as
sociationl with these citizens very
rewarding.
"If you want to he suire yo
will ieverl he bored with your
joh." says 'Mrs. Morris, "just he

secretary. That will take care of
Your time and interests.
"You may have to plani every

"Or you miay be covered vith

Career Satisfaction

tvrests and stimulates her. She
Cs it that way.
