Thursday, March 13, 1958 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Paice S«Tea PC Students Seek to Raise $3000 for Korean Church TTie rebuilding of a Presbyterian Church in Korea is a task that has been assumed by the Ministerial Club of Presbyterian College. Kickoff date* for the fund-raising project has been set for Wednes day, March 19, * and the amount sought is $3,000. During the Korean wpr the An Yang Presbyterian Church at Ky- ung Gi Do was destroyed, finan cially and physically, but the con gregation and the pastor still sur vive. Since the war, members have attempted to rebuild, Through the efforts within the meager means of the congregation, only four walls and a roof have been completed. A balcony was partially completed but collapsed during a Christmas service in 1956 when the congrega tion filled it beyond capacity. Since that time it has been impossible to raise enough funds for rebuild ing the balcony or completing the church. There is nojLa pew in the building. There areaWrlfynm books, and the eongregatidSkgngs without a piano. The minister preaches without a pulpit. There are no chairs in the Sunday school rooms. Knowledge of this church came to the college club through Yong Ki Lee, a Korean student at Pres byterian College. He and his family are members of the Kyung Gi Do church. Lee's father is a leading officer in the congregation and also a medical doctor. He gave free at tention to those injured when the CURRENT DIVIDEND RATE 3V2% PER ANNUM ON YOUR SAVINGS LAURENS FEDERAL SAVINGS AND I.OAN ASSOCIATION Laurens, S. C.

The spirit of his letter captured the hearts of members of the Pre-Ministerial Club. The fol lowing is a translation of one para graph: “We thanked the Lord for what had been accomplished by you for our church through the grace of our Jesus Christ, Even thousands of miles are between us, but our prayers are always for you though we have not met before. Needless to say, your letter has renewed our concept toward the fellow Ameri can and his deep faith in our Lord. We announced this gratfying news to all of our congregation and also about your firm belief in this cam paign for the rebuilding of His "Litterbug "Poster Winners Announced Sponsorship of a contest on post ers depicting activities of “litter- bugs” has been one phase of the beautification project for the city which is now underway by the Clin ton Garden Clubs. Children in the fourth, fifth and sixth grades at the three grammar schools. Academy, Hampton Ave. and Providence, were invited to en ter posters. Judging took place on Tuesday with the following awards: Academy Street:* First prize, Judy Lever, sixth grade; second prize, Haswell Taylor, sixth grade; third prize, Harley Anne Smith, sixth grade. Hampton Avenue: First prize, Bill Jacobs, fourth grade; second prize, Linda Broome, fourth grade; third prize, Johnny Malpass, fifth grade.

We, wish you the best of everything. \ sma U cash award and a blue ribbon TTie grace of God be with you for- t von cash ever.” Raising of the $3,000 for the proj ect would be an impossible task if left only to some 25 ministerial stu dents, sponsors of the movement admit. But with the help of the en tire student body of Presbyterian College and the people of Clinton, it is possible, they state. “We are calling upon every-per son to share with us this opportun ity of building God’s kingdom and proving to ourselves and to our fel- lowmen across the sea that the Christian heart is a generous heart,” members of the club said in seeking support for the move ment. Jim Peck is serving a$ financial chairman for the project. Contri butions may be mailed to him or to the college and designated for the Korean church fund. Red and white ribbons were pre sented the second and third place winners. All posters will be displayed in the window of T. E.

The Laurens County Agricultural Committee will join with other ^ounty agricultural committees in endeavoring to attain the goals set up for the state in the 1958 State Agricultural Program for South Carolina announced by the South Carolina Agricultural Committee and the Clemson College Extension Service. Members of the Laurens County Committee will copoerate with County Agent C. B. Cannon and Miss Myrtis Taylor, county home demonstration agent, and their as sistants and the representatives of the other agricultural agencies in the county in their efforts to ac quaint people of the county with the details of the program and to help them carry out the suggestions it contains. He points out that the program was unanimously adopted at a meeting of the state committee in Columbia early in January. TTie State committee is composed of two elected representatvies of ^ a c h county committee and the designat ed representatives of the agricul- utral agencies and farm organiza tions of the state. The two mem bers of the state committee from Laurens county are Hance Finley of Mountville. and Mrs. James Wasson of Hickory Tavern. Charlie Foster of Columbia, is chairman of the state committee, and George B Nutt, director, Clemson Exten sion Service ,is secretary. The state program is presented in brief form and establishes over all agricultural objectives for the state. It is designed to be used as a suggested guide for county agri cultural committees, agricultural agencies, farm organizations and other groups, and for individual farmers in planning and conuducting their.activities for the year. TTie ac tivities suggested' apply to the “Farm, Home, and Community” theme for the year. The sponsors of the 10-pomt pro gram point out that the agricul tural situation confronting farm people in 1958 calls for careful farm and home planning, effi cient production and marketing, and close cooperation between ru ral and urban people in communi ties, in counties, and in the state in solving their mutal problems In urging that full support be given to the program, Mr Cannon says: “The outcome of farming in this county in 1958 will vitally af fect the over-all economy of the «. mnty. We believe the suggestions given in the 10-point state program are good for our county, and we want to urge all of our people- bankers, businessmen, commercial, civic, educational, and religious groups and organizations, and oth ers—to join with the county agricul tural committee and our agricul tural agency workers in the effort to get them carried out.” TTie Laurens County Agricultural Committee is composed of farm men and women representing va rious sections of the county and various types fo farming, farm or ganizations, business and commer cial interests, and agricultural agency representatives. The mem bers serve without pay. Tlie pres ent members of the committee are: Hance Finley, chairman; Mrs. James D. Wasson, vice-chairman; J. W. Tinsley, alternate; Mrs. M. A. Wilson, W: F.
