taper off, naturally the efforts slow
down.
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.
