What Russia does now or later is the $64 question. Upon that answer our freedom — even our lives maybe—in deadly peril. We don’t know the meaning of the i Marxist code, though we have the ! suspicion that it has but one mean-! i ing—total conquest of the entire' i world. Then, the Stalin high-ups may be playing a “bluffing” game. We are somewhat inclined to this j latter opinion. This uncertainty may continue until the world is j conquered and enslaved, or until the Rusian people themselves over-; -throw their own tyrants. If . we are drawn into an all-out war with Russia, the Kremlin will be defeat- • ed we say, though the cost in lives and money will be staggering. ' All of us should have the in- j years to compete in the same age division. Nancy Meadows and Dduglas Salters were the Clinton Mills rep resentatives and they were accom panied by Cooper Teddards and Rionnie Johnson. Nancy, in the ju nior women’s division, although not ffualifying for the finals, was by no means last in the race. She is only 13 years of age and has three more years of participation in this same division. Douglas made an out standing showing in the boys’ di vision. He is only 10 years of age i.nd has three more years in this same heat. He was the youngest and smallest participant in this age group. This was the first swimming meet that either Lydia or Clinton Mills has entered. 26, at Calhoun Towers In Greenville. A three-course luncheon in a pri vate dining room highlighted the | gathering of some 40 members, rep resenting classes dating back to 1911. Mrs. C. E. Cason, president, of Greenville, was in charge. An original poem, “Let’s Go Back a Bit,” read by Mrs. Adeline Hug gins Loftis, class of 1Q16, picturing life at the old N. C. I. was greeted with applause and laughter. Con tacts from absent members were I read .among them worthy causes for which contributions were taken. Short life sketches from each pres ent proved instructive and enter taining. Officers for the year were elected by acclamation, as follows: Presi dent, Mrs. W. C. Baldwin, Clinton, and Secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Mary Knight, Simpsonville. On adjournment, pictures were taken of the group. Place of the next meeting was left to the officers. FOR YOUR PRINTING AND OFFICE SUPPLY NEEDS CALL 74 I Cotton - Dusting CLINTON, S. C., THURSDAY.
