The commit tee arranged with the county school officials to have each school in the county to devote a classroom period or a chapel pe riod to the subject of soil and water conservation. Suitable in formational material was prepar ed and distributed to each school in the county. A number of rural ministers of the county preached sermons on the relationship of the Soil and the soul. Most of these sermons were preached on Soil Steward ship Sunday following ‘'Soil and Water Conservation District Week.” Miss Elizabeth Ellison and Mrs. McCurry, teachers in the Greenville city schools, gave a program on “Teaching Soil and Water Conservation in our Public Schools” before the members of the Laurens County Educational Association on February 4, 1954. At this meeting the supervisors distributed over 200 copies of the Soil Conservation booklet, ‘Down the River,” to school teachers in the district. The supervisors sponsored the Spencer Soil Conservation Dis trict Speaking Contest. C. C. Herbert, Cedar Valley Farm, Rt. 3, Laurens, was first place dis trict winner and placed second in the statewide contest The sub ject of Mr. Herbert’s speech was “Water Problems in My Soil Con servation District and On My Farm.” He was invited to present his speech before the annual meeting of the South Carolina Association of Soil Conservation District Supervisors in Charles ton on January 19, 1955. Newspapers The district supervisors are again highly pleased with the co operation of our local newspa pers. The Laurens Advertiser and the Clinton Chronicle have consistently given us space for publishing soil and water conser vation news. We are grateful for this valuable assistance. Problems The Laurens Soil Conservation District has its problems of course. Many fanners are not in financial position to apply con servation practices as rapidly as needed. Absentee landowners and tenants are not as interested in soil conservation as they should be. More education is needed to acquaint the people with the need for doing, and how. Through the Soil Conservation District they may receive much valuabel help from the agencies primarily engaged in conserving soil and water. Without the help and coopera tion of all the above merftioned agencies, organizations and indi viduals the District program would have been far less success ful. The supervisors of the dis trict deeply, appreciate the valu able assistance received. We ask your continued support of the district program to protect our land and water resources. Five Plants Come To S. C. In Five Weeks Columbia, Feb. 15—“Unusually heavy activity," in industrial de velopment circles in the state was reported to the State Develop ment Board at its meeting yes terday in Columbia, A. Stanley Llewellyn, of Camden, chairman of the board, said. Mr. Llewellyn said that S. W. Gable, acting director, listed five plants which have come into the state in the five weeks since the board’s last meeting January 31, and reported a number of others currently making active investi gations. The five new plants were: As- ten-Hill Manufacturing Co., Wal- terboro: Kendall Mills, Bethune, Riegel Corporation, Johnston; Artloom Carpet Co., Effingham; and Dewey-Almy Co., Greenville. The board held its first confer ence yesterday with Governor George Bell Timmerman, Jr., to discuss future activities. Present were Air. Llewellyn and two oth er members, R. Frank Brownlee of Anderson, and G. L. Buist Rivers of Charleston. “We were all immensely grati fied at the interest shown toy the Governor in industrial develop ment, and we were glad to re ceive several valuable sugges tions from him," the chairman reported. At the meeting Mr. Gable also reported that the tourist develop ment division of the department had just ended its busiest month. More than 4,000 inquiries, princi pally from tourists, were answer ed by the division during Janu ary, which was more than double the number for January of 1954 and about triple that for January, 1953. These were attributed to the board’s national newspaper and magazine advertising pro-i gram, and to the increasing pu- licity program carried on by the division. These and other reports caused the board to register pleasure at the work now being done by 1 Mr. Gable as acting director and! his staff, members said. They added that the board had received a number of applications for the position of director.
