You owe it your time and energy and your talent So that no one will be at war or in poverty or sick or lonely again.

C State At South Carolina selves comforts so that you could have luxuries. This they have done gladly, for you are their greatest treasure Teen-agers, grow up and go home!” This pointed letter applies not on ly to teen-agers, but also in part to the many restless physical adults who are afraid to be aJonp with themselves and have to be enter tained. T » Sometime ago I read the follow ing: ‘The trouble with the world today is that there are too many people in too many automobiles go- ing in to many directions to no where for nothing. ” It is no wonder we are such a restless people! It is high time for us to make some effort to restore the bome- We go in debt to buy beautiful hous es and then make out of them park ing places at and cafeterias in the day-time. Since the coming of the automobile, boys and girls have forgotten how to date at home, yet it is the sofest place to do it. Many parents don’t know how to develop a famliy night at home. There is a new book just out, "Fam ily Night Fun,” by Monroe and Shirley Paxman (Prentice Hall, $3.95) which can be helpful to par ents who want to establish or reac tivate family nights at home. There are other books in this field. Consid ering the investment the average family makes in the house which they call home and judging by its use. it is an expensive luxury The best way to realize on that invest ment is to use it—and use it as a family. . (EditorV Note: This is the first in a Series of informative columns on traveling through South Caro lina. A former newspaperman, he is a veteran of about 15 years in news circles of the Carolinas, and now serves as assistant executive secretary of the Palmetto State Oil Marketers’ .Association ) Going somewhere? Oh. you say nowhere in particular, but you want to get-away from the house a few hours this week-end. Well, there's northing like a ride across the picturesque countryside in the autumn. Escape the tensions of the work day. Get into the family car and make that trip to Fantasyland, South Carolina May we suggest you "kill two birds with one stone" and take a motor trip to a beauty spot we re cently visited in the upper reaches of our state First, of course, you must pre pare for the trip. Pack some light lundies. if you care, and take along those car coarts because you’ll want to get out and roam a little closer to the heart of nature.

I'm sure you will be glad you made this trip If you are situated in the west ern part of the state, this may be every-day stuff to you. And, then again, perhaps you have driven to and from work through a country you've never really stoppad-te en joy Now , you who reside in the cen tral or eastern sections, you’re in for a real treat. But, the time is limited! If you're to get the full impact of nature’s painted hillsides, you’d better go soon. We have a few week-ends left before winter’s fangs strike -end traveling may become less inviting Our rendezvous with this hardly surpassable natural beauty will be a few miles north of Greenville on Highway 25. Of course, the scenes enroute make this somewhat of an anti-climax. Nestled against a backdrop of Blue Ridge mountains is a recently formed lake which serves as a res ervoir to Greenville area’s water shed Be cautioned not to tarry long, nor throw trash in the water shed area As you approach the lake, how ever, there are places along the way where you can stop and eat lunch There are side roads to ex plore also. And if you are a true venturer, you will drive to the top of the range, where you come to the North Carolina state line. Then return to glimpse South Carolina scenes you may never_ have realized were there. Now. if you want to stretch the trip a little and perhaps plan to re main overnight in a motel in the Greenville area you may cross over to the more western area of the state and visit Caesar's Head, Along this route, the trail is more rugged but the grandeur is impres sive. There are little mountain streams, peaks jetting high and all that goes into making for you a thrilling exploration Oh yes, you’ll not want to forget to capture some of this with your cameras. Color film can best re cord it all and you can return to your homeland equipped to be the life of a party by showing some of the slides, movies or still pictures. It could be a once-in-a-lifetime jaunt for you, so leave the cares be hind, practice safety enroute, and yours will be a delightful journey.
