W. Main Street Phone 26 Clinton, S. C. Forest Ranger Reports Costly Fires In County A Good Courage by Jamas C. Kinaxd Four costly fires in the county have been reported so far this month by County Forest Ranger H. E. Martin. At least three of these he attributed to careless ness. On October 1, Mr. Martin re ports. approximately 80 acres on' lands of Robert Smith and Rich ard Campbell near Waterloo were ravaged by a fire of un known origin. The fire reached such dangerous proportions that a tractor and fire plow had to be called in from district headquar ters in Newberry. The fire was subdued after about four hours work by the fire wardens, one of the landowners and a railroad section crew which was working’ nearby. , On October 3 an incipient cost ly fire was extinguished nea” New China Baptist church be- j fore it made much headway. The . fire was reported to the fire tow- I er by Eugene Brown, farmer who lived about two or three miles ' away. Volunteer fighters help ing the wardens were Eugene Brown, Pluss Brown, William McNinch, Robert Wilson, Tol j Bolt, Ed Milam, Tom and Mar- ^ tin Milam, A. B. Jacks,* James Jacks, Jack Adair, a Mr. Baker | and others whose names were not known. The property was owned by A. B. Jacks. The fire resulted from what Mr. Martin described as a “very careless” act. Hunters had left a smol dering blaze in ahollow three and the blaze spread. Another fire the next .day which apparently started from a discarded cigarette burned con siderable acreage near the Amer ican Legion hut. A man burning trash in the Ekom community Wednesday al lowed the fire to spread endan gering several houses and out buildings, the ranger said. Luck ily the area fire warden and the ranger himself happened to be immediately available and with the help of volunteers the blaze was gotten under control before much damage was done. Help ing was the volunteer community fire fighting crew composed of Warren Blackwell, Barney Blackwell, and Philip Madden. Others helping included Clarence Jackson, Mrs. Jackson, Billy Rowland, Carlos Elmore, Philip Watson, Paul O’Dell, Jay O’DelL Harley Culbertson, Roy Culbert son, Charles Elmore, Ansel Burts, Tom Hill, Euell Cheek, DeWitt O’Dell, Gordon Chapman and Cleve Jackson. PC Students Choose Business And Ministry Careers In business and the ministry are most popular selec tions among students enrolled at Presbyterian college for the 1954- 55 session. the leading choices of PC stu- • These two careers have been dents for the past number of years. Ministerial candidates, however, last year almost equal led students enrolled in the pop ular business courses, and this trend is being maintained again this session. A total of 68 students listed business as their intended life’s work, in the 1954 survey. Sixty- one have dedicated themselves to service as ministers. Teaching, coaching and medi cine rank next in order of popu larity for careers. A total of 35 students plan to teach, 22 are interested in becoming coaches and 18 plan to enter medicine. As always, a large group of students—particularly among the freshmen — is still undecided about the future. But among oth er careers which appeal to PC students are: dentistry, 7; army, 7; science, 6; insurance, 5; agri culture, 5; nursing, physiology, mortician, designing, printing, textiles, banking, dietetics, flying and radio announcing.

A major aim of this service is to reduce and prevent dependence due to disability. It is a privilege to pay tribute to those who refuse to let im pairment of body destroy their usefulness. The world today is! richer for such a courageous; spirit. A three-year-old boy was ac cidentally blinded while playing with an awl in his father’s har ness shop. Seventeen years later he invented the Braille system of reading for the blind. Fanny Crosby, sightless through mishap from babyhood, gave us some of our best loved hymns. The great novelist, Sir Walter Scott, was incurabty lame. Lord Byron, the poet, was a cripple from youth. Stone deaf, Beeth oven could not hear his own music. Catherine Booth, an angel of mercy to the poor and out cast, knew few days free from pain. Handel composed his Hal lelujah Chorus while paralyzed in one arm and side. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuit order, lived in painful suffering. Robert Louis Stevenson wrote some of his finest stories of heroism while he had tuberculo sis of the throat. i Helen Keller, blink and deaf from infancy, spoke eloquently for the physically handicapped who maintain their faith and courage, when she said: “I thank God for my handicaps, for through them I have found my self, my work and my God”. —7 COFFEE AND TEA STAINS Coffee and tea stains on linen can be removed by soaking the spots in glycerine.
