EN MUON MENT — Swial Value
I give childhood envimnment a
laigt* pait of the credit—or blame —
for the character of any individual.
But 1 can’t follow the reasoning of
many ol iny friends who are devoted
to the uplifting of humanity, and who
seem to think that all that is neces
sary to make lH‘tter citizens is to pn»-
vide the poor with up-to-date homes
and sanitary pliiiuhing. I don't be-
lievi* What such things have any ef
fect on character.
It is the fashion nowadays to as-
riunu* that all that counts is material
wealth. Make pei*ple prosperous and
th**y will be gwd. .Anyone who has
lived as long as 1 have knows that is
not true. The only prosperity that
builds character is that which men
achieve by their own industry and
.self-denial. I have known a few con
tented persons. Most of them were
p<H)r. I have known many splendid
Powell! characters who came from city slums
and back-country fariqs, and I know
men born to wealth who are utter
scoundrels. „
The environment that influences
character is the character of the pt‘o-
ple who live in the homo, not the
walls and the nmf. Children gain
their impi'cssions of right and wrong
from their families, their schosil-
mates and everyone else with whom
they come into contact.

Clinton pons Host
To District Meet
The Clinton Lion.s club on last Fri
day evening was host to a zone meet
ing of presidents and secretaries an 1
other members of various clubs in the
zone. About thirty officials were pres
ent from Spartanbuig, Gaffney, Un
ion. Greenwood, Laurens, and Calhoun
Falls. They were giie.st.-^ of the Clin-
j[on club to hear plans for the year’s
work pertaining to this zone and to
Furman l»ack, who scored on the Blue
.Stockings last year.
Jack and Joe Miliiip, stocky twins
on the “’J'hornwell teani, are slated to
fill the two guard positions. The op
posing baokfields will have doubl"
Irouljle when that pair get down to
bu.siness!
Clinton Hi will play a night game
witli Anderson Boys’ high in Andcr-
si>n on October 8.
The Clinton boys tennis team (15
years of age or younger) will journey'
to Greenwood soon for a match there.
“4aiu” Dillard- ami “Ginky” Sadler

two Greenwood girls. '
Note from The Blue SUH'king: The
i freshman class at P. C. includes 21
former^-aptains in high school ath
letics and men who had all-state
'distinction in some form of sports.
1 Ci'ach Wilder expects his Clinton
I Mi team to average about 155 pounds.
, I'he line will probably average around
j Uhl pounds.
j Dennard to .\lkinson, P. C. pass
ing cTVmhm^ioh, clicked well enough
in high school to give both players
an all-state 'rating in Florida for two
straight years.
Jim Furr, captain of the 11)37 “Red
Devils” and erstwhile guard on the
(Minton team, has been shifted to end
in recent practice sessions.
The freshman track team at P. C.
next spring should be unusually
strong in the sprints as evidenced by
those energetic dashes through the
gauntlet made by the “rats” Tuesday
night under “sophomoric gruidance.”
Allen Jacobs, star fullback on the
*ThornwelI team, iyli brother of J. B.
Jacobs, former ^ptain of the Blue
.Stockings and/^ all-state fullback.
What’s more, .Allen (or “Doc” as he
is better known) has a younger broth
er,/ who is also out for the Thornwell
team and is already showing up well
in practice.
Perhaps some would say, “Shame
on youl” but I can’t help thinking

M rsT McDuffie Stone of this city!
is in a serious condition in the Lau
rens county hospital as result of in
juries received in a car wreck Mon-,
day night between the country clubi
and I.{iurens. In addition, to head in-j
juries, she is suffering from other
brui.ses and cuts about the body. Her
condition was said to be unchanged
by hospital attaches yesterday after
noon.
Mr. Stone, who was accompanying
his wife at the time of the accident,
was admitted to the hospital but wa.s
dismis.sed following treatment. He was
said to have lost control of his car
when he attempted to pass a wagon.
The automohileTVad left The pavement
and plunged into a field and turned
over after going about t’K) or 70 feet,
investigating officers reported.
.Mrs. .Stone before marriage was
Miss .Macie Sherard, a native of And
erson county, and was reared in the
Thornwell orphanage. For the past
several years she has held a position
with Jacobs & Uompany. J^e has
many friends in the city who will be
distres.sed to learn of the seriousness
of her condition.
