Thursday, October 20, 1H0 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE / 13 AROUND CUNTON HIGH By THECIE DAVIS Wasn’t homecoming last Friday mbht just about perfect? I am glad it turned out so well, because for us seniors it was the last homecom ing we will have as students at Clinton High. That Friday afternoon every Red Devil in Clinton was really in a rush. The football field had to be decorated, the cars had to be filled with gas, and refreshments for the canteen had to be fixed. In the parade there were over twenty cars. Gil Huguley, whose car brought up the rear of the pa rade, had the right idea. A sign on his c^r stated that the Red Devils would be victorious. Surely enough, the York Green Dragons lost 19-9. Jhat was the first game of the sea- non that York had lost. There was a happy group of foot ball players at the canteen Friday night. That is easy to understand though. Congratulations are extended to Dorothy Staton, who was crowned Miss CHS during the halftime ex ercises at the game Friday night. She was so happy and excited that she cried. Now isn’t that a crazy thing to do? The football players’ sponsors and the candidates for Miss CHS looked great at the game as well as in the parade that afternoon.

The average family doesn’t realize it until they try to meet their monthly obliga tions The Institute of Life Insur ance recently re-printed an editorial from the New York Herald-Trib une, February 4, 1950, "In the in terests of every American who is concerned with preserving the val ue of the dollar.” We pass it on. ‘‘We have a latter from a reader, who is obviously an thoughtful citizen of our commun ity. In it she raises a question which, next to the ultimate one of ized that homecoming was over. For some of the juniors and seniors Monday meant nothing more than book reports. What a pleasant thought that was! Oh, well, that wasn’t half as bad as getting report cards the next day. U is rather en couraging, though, to think that now each of us is given a chance to do better There are no strikes against us; so let’s go to work Red Devils! Fayrell Furt, who used to go to school here at Clinton High, came to the homecoming game and can teen. He is now living in Greenville and going to Greenville High School. i Louise Speake's cousin, Libby Monroe, from Latta, came to Clin ton to see Louise during the week end. Ah their regular monthly meet ing, members of the Transporta tion Club discussed the pros and cons of the various styled bus driv ers’ jackets. Most of the drivers agreed it was best to keep the same style jacket as they had last year. It is a good thing that there are only about ten more school days be fore we get our monthly bus driv er’s checks, because those jackets will cost a little bit of “green.” * Bill Wilson awarded Roger Whit mire a Hi-Fi Club T-shirt and cer tificate last Friday morning in chapel. This was in recognition of his action in the Lancaster game, October 7. So far there hasn’t been a foot ball game scheduled for Friday night. I wonder what the people will do with themselves that night. May be somebody will have a party or something like that. Othenvise I guess there will be a goo4 i people at the show. Rites Held For W. B. Weathers Laurens—FuneraL services foT William B Weathers. 78, were held at Kennedy Mortuary Chapel at 3:00 p m. last Wednesday by Rev. Herbert Bailey and Rev. John W’a- ters. Burial was in Forest Lawn “tery. Mr. Weathers died in a Columbia hospital after an illnes sof 10 years. He was a native of Spartanburg many war or neaee is undoubtedlv the Count y- the son of the late Robert f undoubtedJy ,ht and Lula Clark Weathers.

But the simplest possible answer to it is this: Money loses its value when people take more out of their econo my than they contribute to it. At first glance, this would seem to be Collins, all of Laurens; Mrs Gus McCue of Greenville; Mrs Carl Philbps of WaQialle, and Mrs. Robert Wells of Tampa, Fla., 32 grandchildren, and 14 great-grand children.

They do it by the use of credit; the time comes when they must take part of their present income to pay for things used long ago. “Any wage rise which is not so boosting wages will put you more equal with the game. That is true only if prices Sail to rise more than wages. And that can happen only if wage increases are geared to genuine rises in man-hour produc- tivtiy. ‘Any wage rise which is not so geared becomes simply another tax on all consumers. It is passed on in higher prices for everything. And it becomes a hideous burden to the increasing millions of our people who must live on pensions, annui ties or other fixed incomes which nave no ‘escalator’ clause. “As Chief Justice Marshall well said, long ago, the power to tax is the power to destroy. This hidden tax is a slow erosion upon the fu ture welfare of all Americans, whatever their calling. “A whole generation has grown up which takes its future ‘secur ity’ for granted, makes scant pro vision for saving, and judges things not by their dollar cost but by the amount of the ‘installments.’ This easy attitude toward owing money has helped inflate all prices. ’‘Inflation can be stopped. But that can happen only when every citizen has bbcome informed as to its true causes. “Once he does learn, it will make no difference to him whether he is a steel worker, an editor, or a doc tor. He will know that it is every one’s enemy, and the greatest sin gle threat to the security of our oW age.” A manage ment, and circulation of The Clin ton Chronicle, published weekly at Clinton.
