If you can’t hear us now, we’ll yell a little louder!” This cheer seemed to be the attitude of most CHS’ers at the pep meeting Thursday and Friday and at the game Friday night. At both pep meetings everyone seemed to be bubbling with en thusiasm, and one could Just feel the excitement and unity of spirit at the game. The cheerleaders, sporting bright new red and white uni forms, and carrying a new “Clin ton High Red Devil’s” banner, made a most effective entrance to the field at the head of the line of players. Always a moral booster, the Red Devil Band, under the di rection of Mr. Harry Bouknight, is continuing to do a fine Job ral lying school spirit at pep meet ings and during time-outs. It was wonderful to see many recent CHS grduates at the game cheering for their old alma ma ter. Once a Red Devil, always a Red Devil! Its’ too bad we lost to York last week, but our Red Devils put up a good fight; and if we keep up our spirit and show them that we re behind them all the way, I’m sure they will send Rock Hill “down the bucket” tomorrow. It’s our first home game; so let’s all turn out and cheer the Devils on to victory! Speaking of pep meetings—our first Friday pep meeting was held in the gym instead of the auditorium because the audito rium seating hasn’t yet been completely arranged. For three long years we poor old seniors have been waiting our turn to be the first out of the student body gatherings. So what happened at the very first pep meeting? You guessed it—the freshmen led out! You freshmen certainly are much braver than we were three years ago! I remember being cautioned by my homeroom teacher to remain seated until the last senior had left the audito rium. At my first pep meeting I stayed glued to my seat with fear and was even skeptic about standing when my teacher gave me the OK sign. I don’t know what I expected to happen if I stood up before those “big bad seniors” had cleared ou, but I was taking no chances- Now, freshmen, and all you un derclassmen, please show a little more respect for your “elders and wait your turn to have the Ansel R.

L. OUTZ, County Agent J. Herman Power tells me he harvested eleven tons of grapes from two acres. That’s about the same as two bales of cotton per acre, with less cost. Grape yields in general were good, and farm ers received a good price. The reason for the high price is the late freeze that hit many of the grape-growing areas. Final fig ures as to the total harvest have not been received for Laurens County. — • • • Fanners usually get higher prices for their beef calves at the feeder sales. In the past this county has only sold from 800 to 400 calves in these sales. We should be selling two and three thousand easily. Buyers are at- tracted to large numbers of uni form cattle. These calves go to the feed lots or the pastures where they are grown out fur- tter. Fanners in North Carolina mjrtat around 80,000 calves, while in this state—6,000. Our fan feeder sales are sched- CteRONICV FOB. 00. uled for September 19 at Green wood, and September 20 at Spar tanburg. Cattle are delivered the day before the sale, and must be vaccinated and de-horned. If heif ers .they must be calfhood vac cinated and guaranteed open. In other words, a quality calf must be delivered to the barn. These sales are ideal for the small pro ducers. He can group his calves with other farmers and get the advantage of large numbers. ♦ • V We are having a lot of inquiries about the new chemical “Dy- bar.” This is a compound that is in pellet form used to sprinkle under undesirable hardwood to kill it. The chemical is easy to apply. It is best suited for spot treatments. It is expensive to kill solid stands of hardwood. The cost would run 860 to 870 per acre. It also kills pines as well as hardwood. • » • Shelton J. Rimer, “The upside down sign man,” has purchased a farm on highway 49. He plans to breed Arabian horsse. Mr. Rimer and his manager, Mr. Crotts, have done an excellent Job with fences and barns. The beau tiful gate and fence certainly speak for themselves. Mr. Rimer says the Arabian is the horse of the future. I’ll have to admit they are mighty pretty. After watch ing Mr. Crotts with his work-outs I believe he is right. Mr. Crotts is our horse club leader. He, along with some of the club members, is planning a horse show at our fair this fall. Don’t miss it. EVERYDAY COJJBELOR Having a good thing Is fine, but theres’ something better than that—knowing that you have it. One of the tragedies of modern times in the United States is that we have such a wonderful thing in our God-given freedom. But so many do not seem to realise it, and are letting it slip away. Our founding fathers planned this republic as a God-centered nation. Read what some of them had to say: Thomas Jefferson in the Dec laration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evi dent, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalien able rights . . .” George Washington: “Al mighty God, we make our ear nest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy holy protection . . , John Adams: “The 4th day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to God Al mighty.” Patrick Henry: "Forbid it, Al mighty God! I know not what course others .may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.” Abraham Lincoln: “This na tion under God shall have a new birth of freedom ...” Francis Scott Key: “Then con quer we must, For our cause is just, And this be our motto, Tn God is our Trust’!” The Pledge of Allegiance: “One nation under God indivisible . ..” Preamble of the Constitution of the American Legion: “For God and country we associate ourselevs together ...” Pledge of the Boy Scouts of America: “On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country . .
