t It THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Chotoo, S. C, Thursday, April 9, 1964 South Carolina is a garden spot in the spring, and one of its most attractive communities has been termed “as pretty as a new berry.” There are several the ories of how Newberry, South Carolina, got its name, accord ing to Mrs. B. V. Chapman, who has compiled a history of the community. Some say that Newberry County was named after a cap tain by that name in Sumter’s State Troops. Still others relate that its name is derived from an area in England Whatever story is correct, Newberry is a beau tiful town of warm, friendly peo ple. If you go way back in history, you will find strong evidence that Desoto and his Spaniards were in the vicinity of Newberry as early as 1538. They were fol lowed by the Indian traders, and much later, the German and Scotch-Irish immigrants, who came overland from Philadel phia, Local businessman Billy Carter will tell you that a Ger man Lutheran, John Adam Sum mer, was probably Newberry’s first permanent resident about 1745. Along with the Lutherans came the Quakers, who settled on Bush River and Beaverdam Creek. It is difficult to deter mine when the Quaker settle ment actually began, but it is known that by 1807 most of them had relocated in Ohio be cause of their view on slavery. A Quaker preacher had prophe sied that they must flee from the slavery issue, or face possible massacre. Today, Newberry County is a growing industrial and agricutu- ral area of more than 28,000 people. Newberry and Prosper ity, its nearby neighbor com munity, are prosperous towns of forward-thinking citizens who rRom Q TH| UgPtW ROOM NASHVIUI TINWSSU THE WORLD S MOST WIDELY USID DEVOTIONAL GUIDE Read II Timothy S:!'?; * Faith comes from what is hcatd, ; comes by the preaching of Christ.

One of the graders turned up a nearly complete Spansih suit of armor, dating back to DeSoto’s era of the 1500’s. Indeed, this is just one of the facts that makes Newberry’s history so colorful.

Awaiting execution in Rome, Paul did not feel sorry for him self. As long as his life was spared, he carried on the work of “teaching those things which Concern the Lord Jesus Christ.” Paul did not feel that with his own death Christ’s work here on earth would be finished. Paul knew his work would end, but that if his witness for Christ were effective, others would take up the battle where he would leave off. The same concern is before us that faced Paul: Who will carry on the preaching and teaching of Christ after we are gone? If our Christian witness is consistent and effective, there will be many to follow us who will carry Christ’s gospel to the worid “to make all men see what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things.” PRATER Our Father, we rejoice that though our mortal lives will end, Thy work will continue if we tell others the good news of Christ. Strengthen us, fill us with Thy power, and use us for Thy glory. We pray in Jesus’ name. Amen. o' THOUGHT FOR THE DAY To whom will I tell the gospel of Christ today? Edwin E. McDonald (Colorado) are proud of their home heri tage. Just three miles off Interstate 26, about 40 miles northwest of Columbia, Newberry is the home of one of the country’s finest Lutheran colleges. Newberry College was officially chartered in 1856. From a humble begin ning in Colonel John Eichelberg- er’s home in 1831, the college has grown to an enrollment of more than 700 students on a large campus. It is now co-edu- FREE ESTIMATES!

Projected building plans for 1964 include a new chapel, which will have a seating capacity of 1,500, as well as new science and music buildings. Newberry Col lege has experienced m o r e growth in the last ten years than in all the previous history of the institution, and the future seems unlimited. It is supported by the Lutheran Synods of South Carolina, Florida, and the South eastern United States. The history of one of the com munity’s churches is closely tied to that of the college. It was a sentimental day when the Luth eran Church of the Redeemer announced it was tearing down its old curch building, which has been on the same site since 1896. Many professors and ministers at Newberry College have served as interim pastors for the Church of the Redeemer. The first pastor of the church, Rev. Thaddeus Boinest of Charleston, had served under the Rev. John Bachman, who founded the near by college. Locally, Mrs. Julia Kibler, whose father was a charter member of the Redeemer Church, can tell you just about all there is to know about the church. She is compiling a his tory for the Lutheran Synod of South Carolina. The Church of the Redeemer has remained one of the most prominent Lutheran churches in the state throughout the years. Construction will be gin soon on a beautiful new structure to replace the old church, and to serve many more generations of Newberry citi zens. * One of the most fascinating in- MCI: More owners of low-priced cars are moving up to Olds than ever before!

News reports constantly remind us of it. A fine looking young teen-age boy was in my study the other day. I gave him an interview at the urgent request of his pa rents. He dropped out of school and had been guilty of a variety of destructive and near-criminal activities. I didn’t know whether the boy would fill the appoint ment, but he did. When he en tered my office, I was imme diately attracted to him. He was a fine looking young man. He apparently responded to my ad miration. I looked him in the eye and asked him bluntly, “Son, what’s bugging you? ’ He replied, “Do you want to know? Well, I’m just bored.” He was speaking for many of our teen-aged boys and girls who engage in the widest variety of anti - social activities. They’re bored because they are denied the thing they crave most—the love, discipline, and companion ship of their parents. The desire for love and atten tion is born within us. It per sists from the cradle to the grave. Too few parents know how to meet this need. They, shower their children with man ufactured things and gifts,'"while denying tiiem the opportunity to develop another basic desire, creativeness. They like to pur sue their creativeness with the approval and in companionship andjmder the discipline of their parents. Walk into the home of the av erage small child today and it is littered with manufactured toys. The average small boy would much prefer to have some sim ple blocks of lumber, a hammer and nails, than the most expen sive toy, and someone to show him how to use them. Every lit tle girl would much prefer to have some cloth and make dresses for her doll, than to have all the store-bought dresses. She had rather try to bake some cookies in the kitchen than to eat cookies from the store. We are born in this world with a desire not only for love and attention, but also the desire to create. Children want to ex plore everything from their own bodies to a dark attic, an empty house, or even a big storm sew er. These desires need to be culti vated and directed. Wise disci pline goes along witb it. These things gife a child a sense of security which he so needs. By the time they come to adoles cence these frustrations break out and produce this boredom which this teen-age boy confess ed to me. One of the best investments parents can make is the time, IF YOU DON’T READ THE CHRONICLE YOU DON’T GET THE NEWS attention, and discipline we give to our children. And the most important direction we can give them is by leading them early to know God and to find Him at home and in the church by going with him, and by wise example.
