WHAT THE NEW HIGHWAYS
MEAN TO CITY OF CUNTON
The development of the Calhoun. th^, extension of the Belfast road to-
Hi^hway in two directions and the j wards Vaujfhnsville direct through
Jacobs Highway in two directions | Laurens county, at least for part of
from Clinton, giving fdur he# high- the way, will come about at an early
way routes out of Clinton, and bring
ing into touch with Clinton the people
on the ridge from Enoree to Sedalia in
Spartanburg and Union counties, and
in Scuffletown and Jacks townships^on business, socialj educational and
by the Cross Anehor-Clinton route
means a great deal to Clinton. Equal
date. If so, a considerable section of
Newberry county, of lower Cross Hill,
and lower Hunter townships will be
brouglit into intimate touch with Clin-
religious life. Also a great many
farms will be brought into close touch
]y much benefit will be derived to I with Clinton byjthe Calhoun Highway,
Clinton from the opening of the Bel-! and when open from the Saluda to the

pells and the rural communities sur
rounding them.
This is as it should be. There will
also be trade going into those com
munities from Clinton, for trade is
not a N one-sided proposition. It takes
two to make a trade. Both ought to
'oe benefitted. All of these communi
ties should be prospered by their touch
with Clinton, and Clinton should be
immensely prospered. What is Clin
ton going to do with*this new and
huge opportunity ? In the first place,
every possible courtesy should be ex
tended to the communities with which
we are now to be closely in touch.
They should be made acquainted with
the advantages which they will derive
from close touch with Clinton. We
have a splendid hospital, an able sur
geon, and many capable physicians
who will be brought in close.touch
with smaller communities around
Clinton by these highways. There is
the superb college, a splendid graded
school system, topped off with a high
school, ably manned and managed.
| There is a good market here for!
I country produce,* but a big market
also in the country and smaller com
munities f<Jr Clinton goods. Every
1 merchant should make his business
known. All of Ihe institutions of
Clinton should make their facilities
known fully and continuously to the
people along these routes. Otherwise,
there will be a lack of acquaintance
even though there is now no impedi
ment to closer business relations. This
means that the Clinton community is
extended by many miles in four dif
ferent directions; that the real Clin
ton population is enlarged by thous
ands; that the volume of Clinton
business wl)ich will result will be im
mensely bigger—at least $1,000,000 a
year bigger than heretofore. This
means more deposits in the banks, I
larger bank clearings, bigger freight]
receipts, greater business for tele
phone and telegraph companies, a de-
I velopment of our educational inter-
, ests, hospital patronage, medical and
; dental practice, and an immense in-
] crease in the volume of mercantile
] business.
All of this is ready to the hands
of the Clinton citizen if he will go
after it in the proper manner, with
courtesy, cordiality, a big welcome to
all of our new neighbors, and a fair
Ideal and/a square deal on any and all
occasions, with plenty of publicity tell-
• ing the story of Clinton’s friendliness
and interest in the surrounding coun
try, and in the smaller communities
which will be allied with it.
Clinton has given fine leadership to
this region and its leadership is ap
preciated by the country people and
by the people of the smaller towns.
The effort to get these highways is
highly approved in all the communi
ties reached, and highly appreciated.
This appreciation will ; be reflected in
j a kindly spirit of the country and
small towns people to the people of
the larger town, and it is quite cer
tain that the people of Clinton have
the kindliest of interest in the people
of the country and of the people in
the small towns with which they are
to be in touch.
Clinton is to be congratulated upon
the new era which is dawning for the
rural regions and the small communi
ties surrounding Clinton, as well as
for Clinton itself. Clinton should
make the most of her opportunities
now that they are here.
The blessingg thife to be enjoyed by
us should make us the more enthu
siastic for county-wide good roads in
order that every part of the county
shall be equally as well cared for ac
cording to its needs.
