The town and county units of government are closer to the taxpayers than the State is, but the Counties are dependent on the will of the State, since most Coun ties do not levy their own taxes. The towns, of course, levy taxes, but that doesn’t change the general condition. The general condition is that taxes are either needlessly high, or that citizens are not re ceiving the fullest measure of local! service because of a shortage of lo cal revenue. The remedy is cer tainly not to be found in author izing local units to levy taxes; after check-ups often reveal heart disor ders in their earliest stages when the chances for control—and pos sibly cure—are best. It is wise to have a complete health examina tion every year—or eis often as the doctor recommends. 2. Keep your weight down. Ex cess pounds tax both the heart and the blood vessels. Doctors are now stressing the importance of diet in the treatment of various heart andl blood vessel disorders. For ex-j ample, restricted diets have bene- j fited many patients. 3. Learn to take things in your stride. Avoid hurry, pressure and emotional upsets, that may be brought about by overwork, too much and too sudden physical ex-; ertion, and other excesses. These can cause your heart to beat fast-; er and put an extra burden on your circulation.

BOLEN SLEEPLESSNESS To the average person to lose a night or two of sleep does not present much of a problem since one night’s good rest seems to make up for lost sleep, but to the person who suffers with marked insomnia it pre sents a definite threat to his health. Inability to go to sleep and to rest well may result from marked tension, nervous ness or functional pains that come and go. Insomnia, as a disorder, generally responds very well to Chiropractic care. The Chiropractor in his ap proach to relieving this condi tion and bringing about a nat ural relaxation and rest, does so by analyzing the spine and nervous system and adjusting the' spine to remove nervous interferences which cause these conditions. * to Case History: Man, age 48, suffered with marked insomnia and with neuritis in his shoul der and general tenseness. His condition had progressed so far that he was unable to get any rest at all without taking something to make him sleep. Realizing that this wus becom ing habitual, he sought some relief from his sleeplessness and from the use of drugs. A Chiropractic analysis revealed the cause of his trouble to be in the upper portion of his spine and adjustments were given to correct it. Within a few days after starting adjust ments he reported that he, was able to sleep a little better. Within two weeks he was able to sleep every night and awake refreshed and without the groggy feeling that comes from taking drugs to force sleep. He said, “I sleep better now than I have in years.” As his neu ritis cleared he was able to carry out his duties in a nor mal and natural manner. If sleeplessness is your health problem, investigate Chiropractic today. • 'For what the modern Chiro practor can do to help you overcome your health prob lem, write or call— The R. C.

The State cooperates, and has been generous, according to its means, and that is the very point I make: let the State be generous with Counties and Towns, according to its means.

I know, of course, that school taxes are levied on property, but I disting uish between 'General Property taxes and school taxes for the sake of emphasis. —Obviously the first obligation of the state is to grant relief to ax- payers. All this bountiful outpour ing of money is not a windfall; no Aladdin has rubbed a magic lan tern and produced all this flow of money; no son of South Carolina has bequeathed to the State mil lions of oil money. Oh, No! All the money flowing into the treas ury of the State is the hard-earned money of the citizens and business institutions of the state; millions of dollars have come from the bread and meat buying of our poorest people. It is the people’s money and the people have first claim for relief. Qo the State should contribute further to the Counties and Towns; and the counties and towns should reduce their local levies. • * • I am not a physician; nor am I subsidized by the medical brethren; in fact, although I have many friends who ane physicians, I cul tivate the medicos on purely social grounds^ However, so many are talking about heart troubles and heart conditions that I use part of somehing I recently read. Here it is: ‘‘Perhaps no other part of the body has been studied as intensive ly as the heart. Today new tech niques are being developed to re veal more and more facts about how the human heart works. A great deal has been learned about the sources of energy which enable the heart to perform its Her culean task. The heart must drive five to ten tons of blood through the arteries and veins every day— 365 days a year—fo r the 68 years of the average individual’s lifetime. In this period the amount of blood pumped may reach the impressive total of 250,000 tons. Moreover, the heart must function continu ously—resting only a fraction of a second between beats. Heart disease is still the leading cause of death. It is wise, for ev eryone to take certain simple pre cautions to protect the heart so that it may continue to do its job as one grows older. Here are some of them; 1. Do not wait for the appearance of smptoms that may indicate heart trouble—shortness of breath, rapid or irregular heart beat, pain in the chest—‘before seeing a doctor. It is wiser to arrange now—while you are feeling well—to have a thorough health check-up. Such All the men of the various armed services will wonder about the 8 glasses of water. In Europe a man drinks water at his peril. And he drinks other stuff at his peril, too, so what? One point can be made by our highway department—and beyond all disputing—. The water of Europe and Asia may sap your strnegth and kill you slowly, but the water of even France will not wreck the car, or lead to crimes of violence. A friend who enjoys a “nip”, once accused me of being narrow and intolerant. Perhaps I am; the man who doesn’t agree usually seems narrow and intolerant: that’s the little conceit of most of us: but I’ve never known a man to drink a “soda pop” so as to work up en ough courage to commit a crime. Not feven bad coffee or sloppy tea will cause a murder. Six-Inch Sermon REY. ROBERT H. HARPER A GOOD RESOLUTION The custom at this time of the year of making “good resolutions” is highly commendable. However, these resolutions should be definite and few in number. A clutter of vaguely formed resolutions is hard ly better than One at all. In fact it may well be that concentrating on overcoming just one fault will find us closer to God next January. There is one resolution which hardly anyone may not vow to keep. It is one which can make the New Year a richer and more satis fying one both for himself and those with whom he comes into contact. This resolution is. to be a kinder person. Some good people may take um brage at the suggestion that they are not consistently and uniformly kind. It is nevertheless true that few people are kind under all cir cumstances. There is no limit tb the ways in which kindness can be more assi- d u o u s 1 y cultivated. Responding readily and generously to Red Cross and other appeals is an ob vious one. So is making more fre quent visits to sick friends and relatives. Real kindness can be shown by patience with the shortcomings and faults of others; by refraining from hastily or ill-tempered con elusions; by warm words of praise and encouragement to those who need a little “pepping up”; by keeping a rein on the tongue when the temptation is to “blow off steam.” In homes, especially, the kindness of forbearance and pa tience is always of vital impor tance. creased their pressure against the be trying to break the fighting spirit of the South Koreans with bullets and propaganda. The pressure has caused Gen. Mark Clark to announce that American soldiers serving behind the lines will have to spend more time in Korea because of a short age of replacements. This may be part of the reason the Defense Department has an-J nounced a draft of 53,000 for Janu ary, the largest number in many months. Dispatches indicated this high draft call may be continued for much of this year. * * * Elsewhere in the news, Stalin’s much discussed replies to a num ber of questions submitted to him by The New York Times has sim mered down to the belief that it is, aH propaganda.. News analysis . this past week have generally come to the conclusion that the Stalin statements represent noth ing more than another Kremlin propaganda move. In his replies Stalin indicated that he would be willing to meet with Eisenhower he didnt think with with the U. S. inevitable, and the U. S. R. R. will cooperate to end the war in Korea * • * A hint of things .to come in the near future was given when the House Small Business Committee urged the abandonment of price, wage, and material controls. The committee said, in part, this move “would provide a smooth transition back to free competition.” This problem of controls will be one of the first pressing problems of the Eisenhower administration. Wage, price and rent controls ex pire April 30 under present law. Priority and allooation controls over scarce materials will expire June 30. The question is whether the new administration will take action to extend them or let them die their natural death? The House Small Business Com mittee does not believe that price will rise if ceilings are removed. • * « As a new cabinet takes over the government in Washington a big question, and a newsworthy one, is being asked by political observers. Just how well can a President trained for the army, and a cabinet trained in finance and business, get along with the politicians? It is an unanswerable question, of course. But this much is cer tain: These business men and Eis enhower can not succeed unless they learn to understand and tol erate politics and politicians, the B. E. Smoak, superintendent of Sunday school work in the Reedy River association, announces that there will be a special leadership conference at Laurens First Bap tist church on January 23, at 7:00 o’clock. This conference will be for pastors, superintendents, educa tional directors, along with other members of local church commit tees for “A Million More In ’54”, and for all associational officers of both associations. The purpose of the meeting will be to consider plans for increasing the Sunday school enrollment of Southern Baptists one million in 1954. South Carolina’s part in this drive will be an increased Sunday school enrollment of 64,444 in 1954. The topics to be discussed during the conference at Laurens include: (1) Reasons for “A Million More m ’54”; (2) Hew oi accomplishment of “A Million More in ’54’’; (3) Es sential items of preparation for “A Million More in ’54”’; (4) Dates of special meetings for “A Million More in ’54”; (5) Importance of immediate decisions as to clearing the dates, setting up the special decision a s to the eqpansion of the Church-commitee and leaking a building, he enlistment and train ing of workers and other necessary items of preparation.
