Thursday, July 23, 1959 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE By SPECTATOR.. COMMENTS on MEN AND THINGS How shall we promote business? I have read advertisements of the fine liquors served onl great ocean liners, but there is something new under the sun: “On the Seaboard Air Line Rail road’s Silver Meteor, bound for Florida from New York, an attend ant strolls through the train hand ing out free coffee, orange juice and sun tan lotion to travelers. These uncharacteristic railroad doings point up an interesting fact: While some roads are talking of completely abandoning their money losing passenger service, a growing number of lines are stepping up ef forts to woo back some of the riders they’ve lost to the airlines, buses and automobiles. It’s a cautious courtship, to be sure. These roads show little en thusiasm for the commuter and other shert-haul (up to 100 miles) riders; like most lines, they’re con vinced there’s no profitable future in such business without higher fares, tax relief or extensive Govern ment subsidies. But the Coast Line, the Seaboard and others figure there’s still money to be made on longer-haul travelers. Following this philosophy, these railroads first are trying to prune away as much of their unprofitable short-haul service as possible. The Coast Line last year eliminated en ough short-haul trains to cut its total passeiger train mileage 10% below the 1957 level; similar cuts on the Seaboard brought its total 4% below 1957. Second htey’re stepping up service and cutting rates in efforts * “Dr. Hart, Do Chiropractors Prescribe Medicine?” Quite often we have been asked by friends and new patienta, “do chiropractors prescribe or administer medication ?” First, let me state that chiropractic principle is based on the premise that the power to heal resides within the body which grov- erns, controls and heals by way of the nervous system. When nerves are free of pressure, health is the usual result. When the nerves are pinched, this healing force or nerve energy* is shut off or reduced in quantity or quality and ill health re sults. Chiropractors are trained to locate and re- DR. C. J. HART l^es.-Elect. S. C. Chiropractic Board of Examiners move the pressure from nerves caused by misaligned vertebrae. This is done by hand only and requires no medicine or medication. When the pinch is taken off the nerves, nature sends her healing forces to the area and health is restored. Chiropractors study the body thoroughly am) learn how to restore health without medicine. Chiropractors do not study medicine and are not licensed to practice such.

In closing a three-year-old study of rail losses growing out of passenger ser vice, the ICC said railroads should develop plans for “reconstituting railroad passenger service inlto a less extensive network more closely tailored to the needs of the public,’ and recommended aggressive drives by the roads to win new passengers, in part through new equipment, bet ter service and fare adjustments. While it will take more time to gauge accurately the success of the campaigns now underway, some in dicators already are available. Eyeing a 67% increase in Pullman travel on Brownsville-Houston trains during the last 10 montte, which recently cut some fares as much as 28%, says: ‘The program has been very much worthwhile. We’re very much encouraged.’ ACL and Sea board also report an upward surge in passenger traffic since they be gan courting customers with renew ed vigor. Admittedly, the railroads are fighting a tough battle. Passengers have been deserting the rails at such a fast clip that many railroad au thorities, including an Interstate Commerce Commission examiner, predict that rail passenger service will disappear within 10 years if the number of passengers continues to decline at the same rate it has in the past decade. Laste year the major U. S. rail roads hauled only 380.3 million pas- seigers, down 41% from the 642.7 million carried only 10 years earlier. Passeiger revenues during the dec ade dropped to $675.2 million from ! $964.3 million, despite rate increas es. Hie railroads' new campaign to recapture passeigers is two-prong ed: First, the roads are trying to make travel aboard trains more agreeable and comfortable. And sec ond, they are trying to entice the economy-minded with lower fares. Some of the promotions, like Coast Line's fashion show, are one-shot affairs to dazzle pasaeingers. Other railroads are hitting hard on the service angle with a variety of schemes. The Seaboard’s free coffee, orange juice and sun tan lo tion is just one of the line’s pessen genpsoothing projects. Harried par ents sre given an assist on the Coast Line: Children are offered coloring books ‘to give the parents a more pleasant trip.’ A few weeks ago the Coast Line began staffing its purple and silver trains with uniformed passenger at tendants who look after special ser vice requests. The Seaboard even puts registered nurses, wearing neat powder blue uniforms, on its silver streamliners as a psycho logical fillip for passengers’ sense of well-being. This appeals to the old er people who travel on our trains to Florida,’ says a Seaboard spokes-l man. Assessing the resqlts of their cam paigns, many railroads report in creased passenger traffic. For in stance, during the first three months of this year Seaboard’s passenger volume climbed nearly 5% over the like 1958 period, and the Coast Line's long-haul trains had a 10% increase in the same period. Would it be worthwhile to offer special rates to tee-totaUers? I couldn’t drink enough soda pop or tea to make up for all the costly wins and other beverages served to my brethren who need these pick ups. Now,there are people who call for everything served on ships. They want to “sample" a dozen desserts and all the regular dishes. Would it be a good idea to adver tise coffee, peas and rice, for those of simple taste? Or oatmeal and tea for the British? In all fairness, I must mention that there are passengers who never eat anything at sea They How would you account for Jesu, His whole life and service if he was the son of Joseph? Perhaps Jesus covered this too. when He said to Nicodemua: “If I have told you earthly things, and yc believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?” A layman won ders just what hte minister believes, (wM* of Coleman Williams, deceas- corded in the office of the Clerk of ed The lands to be sold are describ ed as follows:- All that piece, parcel or lot of land situate, lying and being on the east side of North Broadway Street, in the Town of Clinton, County of Laurens, State of South Carolina Court for Laurens County in Deed Book No. 91 at page 154.
